    My experience shifted the second time I visited (which was the day after, since it was so good the day before, I came back right away) :-( I should've gotten the barista's name, it was a guy, he made the French Vanilla Latte (FVL) soooooo heavenly creamy and foamy, I was ready to "quit Starbucks". That's exactly the code phrase I used to convince my husband to let me have his FVL, or at least all of the foam layer (it was a good 2/5 of the cup but it's substantial milk froth, not your average cappuccino foam) since what I'd ordered for myself was the Cold Brew (it was OK, I liked that it wasn't too sweet). Naturally I came back the next day ordering the FVL again, having raved about the heavenly froth/foam from the day before, I got a different barista (a female this time) as well as a different product. Could it be because I changed to non-fat milk and asked for only half the syrup? The foam layer was only 1/5 of the cup. It felt similar to a regular Starbucks latte. I'm saddened. Hubby didn't order any drinks this time around but tried a Sausage & Green Chile Panini. I thought it was a pretty interesting creation. 3.5 stars for inconsistency. I'm sorry too.

    I actually really loved this little place. Coming early one morning after a holiday I loved the easy corner location and very calming environment. I bet this place can be super busy on the weekdays, but this time it was slow and just peaceful. I met an out of town friend and had to meet super early. Usually on the weekends you get coffee shops opening up later around 8-8:30, but this place was open at 7am and we were both coming from 40min of driving. I had a wonderful latte, my friend had a real brew tea (the kind out of the bag with a cute free leave brew). The place was cute and comfy. I don't know when I will be in the area again, but I will totally be back. I almost want to just go again for another friend date. With so may "mom and pop" coffee shops it's hard to separate and find a wow factor for each. I guess I just really liked the convenience of this half way point and was overly excited to find after driving 40 minutes that it totally did deserve the high star rating and far exceeded my expectations! Great Job Nixon's and Staff!

    Delicious, quick, cozy coffee cafe. Reasonable prices and nice big mugs of coffee served on saucers with your name on it. My sausage and cheese breakfast sandwich was hot and tasty. My cappuccino was elegantly presented in a nice big mug with a giant frothy foam! The vibe here is casual and inviting with plenty of people doing work on their laptops or just catching up with friends! A very nice alternative to the chain coffee shops. Feels super cozy. I will be back!

    Was looking for a light lunch option while I was touring nearby DU, and found this place based on…read moresome recommendations. So glad I came, this place is fantastic. Service was great, food came fast, but most importantly, the banh mi was hella delicious. I wish it had a few more jalapeño, but I bet it's a local preference thing, and I'm sure if I asked, they would have added. Also, I'm kind of a pig when I am away from home (hence my search for something light), and I'm always concerned a sandwich doesn't fill me up, but I am stuffed. Way more satisfying than a Subway sandwich, although comparing the two is somewhat insulting to this banh mi. I added the combo that provides an egg roll and iced coffee (I was going to buy a coffee for $5 anyways, the combo is $4. No brainer). Coffee is also delicious, and much larger than I thought it would be. TL/DR - Highly recommend this place. I will come again next time I'm in the area. PS - Tables are clean, restrooms are clean. Bonus.

When you take a bite you still get a light crunch from the crust of the bread. This texture adds to the sandwich's flavorful, grilled pork. I especially liked the light crunchy flavor of the pickled radish which is generously sprinkled on top. I couldn't eat the entire sandwich in one sitting but it was gone before the end of the day! The location is okay. It could use some asthetic upgrades but it's got that hidden gem feeling AND flavor. The ladies working were friendly. I will definitely be back!!!

    This elegant European market is tucked into an unobtrusive, L-shaped space sandwiched between…read moreRestaurant Olivia and a Starbucks at the very busy intersection of Downing Street and Alameda Avenue. You must be driving west on Alameda to access the parking lot. There is a large sign there. You can enter the market from the main entrance facing Alameda or from the back entrance off the parking lot. The front of the store has a long wall of imported groceries and a bakery counter offering breads, pastries, quiches, fresh sandwiches (on baguette, croissant, or pretzel bun), soups, salads, and a wide variety of imported chips and drinks. There's a huge cheese cooler and lots of chilled, grab-and-go items. A table offers some kitchenware and gifts. A seating area is provided by the parking lot entrance. I'm on the mailing list which has offered a series of food specials and pop-up events. I was enticed in last weekend by a pop-up cassoulet special. I arrived to find a tent at the edge of the parking lot, sheltering a huge propane wok. The white beans, sausage, and pork belly were gently simmering with a wonderful aroma. What a treat!

    I went here right after my blood work at a nearby medical facility (LOL! Oh boy, I was hungry as I…read morewas fasting!) A thought of freshly made sandwich sounded so good so before I went in for the blood work, I did a little search on Yelp to find some new sandwich places and this shop is/was one of the suggested ones. As I am always looking for a new business to try (this store was also up the street from where I would be for the medical appointment), I wasted no time to rush to this new deli to check it out. As of early September 2025, there are only several reviews posted for them; this is an indication that this business had just opened. Based on what those people said, it sounded like a solid business. The store is on the northeast corner of Downing and Alameda. Although this is not a super big intersection, it sure is a busy one. And yet, its exterior appearance (they have two doors: one facing Alameda and the other facing the parking lot) is somewhat inconspicuous or unassuming (it could be good and bad at the same time.) Had I driven by it, I would only notice the Italian restaurant (Olivia) on one corner or Starbucks (on the other corner). Hopefully they are getting much needed attention from people that pass by it. I entered the store using the door facing the parking lot. This is where you will see the seating area. And to get to the rest of it, you will pass the register on the right. Once you make that left turn you will see more stuff that this store offers. Most of the grocery items are on the left side along the wall. Then there is the fantastic-looking cheese room to the right. The deli counter is at the end where the workers will make your sandwich. There is also a showcase where they display some sweet stuff/cakes (they looked pretty good by the way.) This is quite the space (so if you look down from the top/ceiling (not that you can do that), this store is L shaped.) One of the workers (a lady who was at the register) cheerfully greeted me. I already knew what I wanted (as I peeked their sandwich menu ahead of time). It appears to be a limited time item and it's called "The Saint Tropez". Simply put, this is a tuna salad sandwich on a freshly baked French baguette. As the little info sheet at the register says, this is a light, cold summer offering that is perfect for warm weather cravings. I simply couldn't think of anything else so without doing anything further, I immediately asked for this summer sandwich. The price is $15.99 (and after tax, it's $17 with some change. Not necessarily super reasonable (I thought) but I was more focused on the quality of it.) While the lady was making my sandwich, I looked around the store to take some photos. I spotted some interesting European grocery items that we don't normally see at our local grocery chain but I was most impressed with the refrigerated cheese room. I don't eat a lot of cheese anymore and yet, this store's selection is quite large where if you are needing some cheeses for your next gathering (holidays etc.) then you might consider this place to find some interesting kind(s). It didn't take long for the lady to make my sandwich. As I came out of the beautiful cheese room, she handed me a long/skinny sandwich that was wrapped in a white butcher paper. As soon as I got to my car, I immediately started devouring my sandwich. And it did not disappoint. The crispy French baguette was most delicious and was picture-worthy looking. The tuna salad (house made) wasn't overloaded with mayo-type marinade/sauce. Some slices of tomatoes, plenty of arugula, and noticeable amount of hard boiled egg slices. It was cut in half in the middle but I didn't take any break between the halves (told you, I was hungry after fasting for hours!!) This is a nice deli to have within our reach. I bet on a beautiful weekend, they get a good amount of foot traffic because people can stop by here to grab a delicious sandwich and go to Wash Park for a little picnic. Sounds like a great idea to me!
