Cute little spot, definitely gave me Portland vibes. Absolutely delicious breakfast sando, latte was okay, the espresso was a bit bitter to me and tasted slightly burnt. I will be back for more food though! Super friendly team, all greeted with a smile and seemed genuinely happy like they actually wanted to be there, which is always a plus in 2026 with most places serving the "Gen Z glare." Overall good vibes and great food! read more

This may be the best breakfast sandwich I've ever had. The bun is soft and bouncy, the eggs were cooked perfectly with melty cheese and crispy bacon. I added the house hot sauce too. Truly a heavenly experience. Do not miss out on this sandwich! The coffee was delicious! I love a simple cold brew, and they do it well here! The staff was also very nice and happy. The space is a bit small inside and the music was loud, so I wouldn't recommend working remotely here. It was great for catching up with a friend, though! There's a patio out front if it's warm enough. read more

The breakfast sandwiches here are absolutely delicious! The buns are so soft, the egg is perfectly seasoned and the side salsa is a perfect addition! I am super picky about my eggs and this place knows how to cook them so they are still moist. My husband got the sandwich with the pulled pork and the pickles complemented the sandwich nicely! The service was friendly and super fast! We were there on a Friday morning so we were glad there wasn't a long line, as mentioned on several reviews. The indoor space is small but clean and bright. I definitely recommend this place! read more

I finally got to experience this breakfast and coffee spot! I've been walking by it for months now because I live down the block. This place did not disappoint. I highly recommend that you arrive early in the morning because the line to order and to get in goes out the door. I don't think this is a problem in the warmer months because there's so outdoor dining space but on a cold Winter day, it is not ideal. I enjoyed my chai latte plus my breakfast sandwich. I want to make this my causal, cozy, slow morning weekend spot! read more

Love love their breakfast sandwiches! They use such high quality ingredients to really make quality food. Note that on weekends the line can be long, as well as the wait. They also make quality iced coffee drinks and have a cute patio to enjoy on. Try and hit them in off hours and enjoy one of their amazing breakfast sandos! read more

5 resounding stars for an egg, cheese, and avocado breakfast sandwich that hit the spot in a way I couldn't have predicted. (And much shorter lines than the stalls at Denver Central Market.) We headed over to Port Side after seeing the line for breakfast sandwiches at Denver Central Market and checking Yelp. Once again, we were not led astray. Port Side has outdoor seating as well as limited indoor seating. If you wait around, you're likely to find an indoor table if it's a bit chilly outside. We opted for the egg and cheese sandwich with avocado added and when it came it didn't look super special. Holy cow it was amazing though! Every bite led to the next and before I knew it I had scarfed the whole thing down. My sister asked for hot sauce on the side and said that I had to mention it in my review because it seemed homemade and was outstanding. Overall, a great breakfast spot in an awesome location, that's definitely less touristy and worth visiting! read more

They made one fabulous vanilla latte and my husband loved their breakfast sandwich. He got an egg sausage cheese. I went around the corner to get a pastry at Hearth and when I got back the entire sandwich was gone. That's a great sandwich if he can't save me a bite. read more

Excellent breakfast burrito also an excellent breakfast sandwich and then make a darn good white mocha latte with an extra shot of espresso

I'm in town just for the weekend... I'm lucky I found this place!! It has one of the best breakfast burritos I've had in my life. Great staff Great owner. I will daydream about that burrito till the next time I can come back place is great. read more

If you're looking for a cozy, classic cafe that knows how to make an espresso drink and delicious small dishes, this is your place and certainly is mine. First, I don't know how long it's on the menu, but The Duke sandwich will blow your mind and taste buds! GO GET ONE OF THESE BEFORE THEY ARE GONE! It's a pulled pork sandwich that has obviously marinated in a spectacular season palette to the point where the meat actually melts in your mouth. The pickles on this thing are a perfect match along with a small pile of fresh baby kale. I ordered it on a whim and, wow, I can't imagine why there wasn't a line out of the front door just for this sandwich, I'm not joking. Go get one...right now. The barrista who was making our espresso drinks did so with artisan skills and it was exceptionally made. So the location, it's almost the size of an extra large walk in closet and seating inside is for only about 25 people, and that would be tight. There is more seating outside on the front patio and of course gettingsomething to go is an option. We went here on a Wednesday morning for breakfast but ended up getting there closer to 10:30 and there were only 4 other patrons there so we had a great experience. I hope this place is doing well because I would like to know that a niche coffee shop can still survive for long in this day and age. If they advertise The Duke sandwich and keep it consistent, I'm sure this would become a national chain, LOL!...no, seriously. Go Get One This Minute! read more

I've lived less than a half a mile from port side for 2.5 years and I tried them out for the first time today. I am so sad that I didn't stop by earlier. The duke breakfast sandwich was absolutely delicious. The potato bun was perfection and so were the eggs, pulled pork, pickles and arugula. Their coffee? Amazing! I am a simple guy when it comes to coffee. Oat milk vanilla iced latte - outstanding! Their spot is very cute and everyone was so so friendly. Service was amazing too. You can find me there tomorrow morning with my dog for round two. read more

Port Side - buy 1 coffee get the second 1 same price - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Denver, Colorado

The inside is cozy! Few corner booths but limited seating. They have front patio so you can bring your dog but it is shaded in the morning. They have lunch and breakfast with veggie options. Seemed high quality! They sell their hot sauce which is actually really good and pretty hot. The staff was really nice and helped recommend some items since it was our first time. Didn't try the coffee but it looked good! read more

It's official. I have finally found my favorite spot in all of Denver. If Yelp had a higher rating - it would for sure go to port side. Upon entering, your hit with great customer service. The price point is excellent. The food is seriously phenomenal. All fresh, delish, and hot. We got to chat with, I believe to be, the chef and he was the nicest human. He even took the time to write down some recommendations of other places to try near by. 10000% will be back soon to taste more of the menu. I'm eyeing that grilled cheese HEAVY! Only downside is parking is a tad difficult so scoot or walk on over to save your self the rino parking headache. read more

Good service, nice atmosphere with enough indoor and outdoor seating, and good food/drink options. Happy that they have a vegan burrito, vegan pastries, and non dairy drink options. The smoothie was delicious. Also happy that they use reusable glasses (as opposed to paper/plastic cups) and compost scraps! Way to go, port side! read more

Wow! It's been a couple of months living in the Denver area so far, and we have been pretty disappointed in a lot of the food here. That recently changed with a trip to Port Side. Located in RiNo (or Five Points, still learning areas) this cool little coffee shop has phenomenal coffee, some of the best food around our apartment, and a great atmosphere. My partner got the Truck Stop with avocado, I had one bite and I have been thinking about eating a whole one myself ever since. I got the Bacon Burrito (also with avocado) and it was truly one of the best breakfast burritos I have ever had, and that's saying something coming from someone who lived in Texas 30+ years. The sauce they include with the burrito is soooo good, I want to take home a gallon of it. We are dying to go back, and to try every single thing on the menu. Customer service was also top notch, very friendly staff. We got into good conversation with one of the main employees, who I had to immediately brag about everything we experienced- especially food wise not having a lot of spots to enjoy in Denver thus far. He returned a few minutes later with a list of places to go to that he liked, and we will definitely be taking his recommendations because if they are as great as Port Side...oh man that is exciting. Thanks for reading one of my first Yelp reviews, here's to many more! read more

This review was long overdue! We love Port Side it's our favorite local coffee shop and while all their food is amazing the bacon breakfast burrito with green chili is a consistent favorite. The perfect spot to grab a latte and very friendly staff. Neighborhood gem in RiNo! There's usually a wait on the weekends but not too bad on weekdays. read more

I was standing outside with my service dog in line, didn't take my dog inside nor did I intend to, there was an employee that approached us with red hair accosting me about me having a dog.

Port Side - Latte - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Denver, Colorado

RiNos hidden gem! This place was so cute and small and we were amazed by the quality of everything we got. We got vanillas lattes that were nice and light with beautiful milk art on top the biscuit and gravy was warm, crunchy and delicious. The bacon burrito was packed with flavor but the winner of it all was the bacon, egg and cheese sandwich on the butter bread! It was one of the best breakfast sandwiches I had in a while and the butter bread was really what brought it all together. So happy to have found this gem and will definitely be back! read more

What an awesome coffee shop! First time in Denver, and my friend and I wanted to go get some coffee and breakfast. They had the best bacon breakfast sandwich I've ever had. The eggs were soft and fluffy with melted cheese. Delicious, I feel bad for not taking a picture, it looked too good to take a picture first. I also had their vegan chocolate banana loaf, and it was amazing too. I definitely recommend this place for a lowk chill spot for coffee and breakfast. The service was incredibly friendly too. read more

I'm sitting here in Washington, DC after eating at Founding Farmers, a fantastic DC restaurant. I ordered their avocado toast and all I can think of is how it fails in comparison to Port Side in Denver's. Bottom line, order the avocado toast at Port Side, you won't regret it. read more

Simple fare, decent coffee, all packed inside a shipping container shop. It's small but cozy. Not suitable for meeting more than a few people at a time. There's a small patio out front as well. read more

One of my favorite breakfast spots in Denver. Very reasonable prices for great sandwiches (bacon egg!) and burritos. Coffee is sourced from huck with a variety of alcohol options if that's your vibe. Nice music with friendly service wraps up a great experience every time. read more

Definitely for the LoDo crowd. Surly wait staff, behind an equally chic counter. Good quality food value, but white people Mexican food at best. If you want some extra spice, bring your own hot sauce. Had the bacon burrito read more

Checked out Port Side for the first time this morning, and it was absolutely delicious! A great place for grabbing a good coffee and quick bite to eat. The Biscuits & Gravy was sooo yummy; the gravy had a great balance of savory with a spicy kick. My boyfriend eats a lot of Biscuits and Gravy, and he was impressed. The mochas were good as well. The only downside was that none of the employees were wearing masks. read more

yes yes and a thousand times yes! this is the spot in RiNo for some amazing coffee and delicious breakfast options.

Port Side - two drinks on a table - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Yum, yum, give me some. And some for my vegan friends too. A group of 8 of us stopped into Port Side for some coffee and breakfast and all left happy. The breakfast burrito I had was really tasty. One of my friends ordered the grits and damn were they delicious - just the right amount of spice. You know, with an actual kick. The coffee is great too! Now, in terms of space - we somehow lucked out with a high top table outside that easily fit all of us. Otherwise, just 2 and 4 seaters on the "patio" - so it's a bit of a try your luck situation. Worth it though. read more

I've been here when it was called something else. When it was more of an open plan design. Looks like the outside remained the same. The inside is now littered with tables and the usual hunched over their lap top patrons. I also noticed a better equipped kitchen staffed with cool, friendly and seemingly happy workers. We shared a very tasty breakfast sandwich. I will go back for another one if in the area. Service was fast and prompt. So while you're enjoying their coffee and small bites look for the hanging calendar on the wall to your right as you walk in-it's a monthly calendar of the male workers in various poses :) Btw if you're not a coffee person like me they have teas. read more

We stopped in a couple weeks ago for breakfast sandwiches. I had the Plain Jane and my friend at the UT - we both agreed they were some of the best breakfast sandwiches we've ever had. They've got six or eight tables inside, and maybe five outside, so arrive off peak hours to have your pick. Also had a large carafe of self-service ice water, which I appreciated on a hot day. My friend and I like to try new places, and there are so many in Denver we rarely make second visits to a restaurant - not unless it's really outstanding. We'll be making a second visit here. read more

I have been obsessed with Port Side for about four years now. They have great coffee but more importantly a great food menu. They have something for everyone - meat eaters, gluten free, vegan or vegetarian, there is at least one unmodified option for you! Their avocado toast is my favorite - it is delicious and a work of art. It is the best in Denver. They have a great dog friendly patio and the staff is also friendly. I will never stop coming here. read more
