My boyfriend and I live a block away and this is the closest coffee shop to us so we really want to love it but it's just ok. If that. It is expensive and the service is never quick. For instance, recently I got the mushroom latte (can't remember the actual menu name for it) with almond milk and it was $8 and change. I could handle that price tag if it was a gigantic drink but it's a normal size coffee, about the size of a Starbucks grande. It was delicious, though -- tasted like the milk left behind from Cinnamon Toast Crunch. My boyfriend does like the regular black coffee but admits he is not a tough coffee critic and will drink about anything. We've had their breakfast sandwiches, avocado toast, and burritos and they are very sub-par, not something I would ever get again or recommend. Overall, I would recommend this place if you just need a black coffee and are not in any sort of hurry but if you're in any sort of time crunch and are hungry, too, I'd definitely suggest going elsewhere. read more

Chic and very tasty neighborhood cafe. Very good, I would highly recommend. Try the soup!

Super cute cafe near Washington park. I got a matcha latte and a breakfast sandwich. If I lived nearby I would come work here all the time.

I chose Rosebud Cafe as a first time try based on current reviews and menu pricing ($).The menu in the photos is not current - Breakfast items are significantly more expensive. The breakfast egg sandwich is now $7.50, not $5.50 as in the photo currently on Yelp. Could be an owner oversight, but nonetheless important to maintain reputation. I do like the vibe of this place. It's spacious, contemporary and clean. The bagel sandwich was good, but not a single ($) value. Drink menu same. Would definitely be a regular go-to option for breakfast with a friend, but I won't return until the discrepancies are addressed. read more

Solid location and vibe! Coffee is good if it's made right / at a good time of day. Forget about coming within the hour of them closing. I will be making coffee at home from now on, i haven't left this coffee shop without a bad taste in my mouth; literally and metaphorically as it's a rude vibe! The rumors were true read more

If you're looking for an apathetic barista who thinks a double shot is a half ounce then this is the place for you.

I'm so excited that this cafe is in the neighborhood! It is a beautiful, open space with lots of natural light. It has a peaceful vibe that makes for the perfect place to work, read, or catch up with a friend. I'm a little obsessed with their lattes. In fact I have been four days in a row since discovering this place to get one! The espresso is perfectly done. Homeira, the owner, is so welcoming and friendly. She makes a delicious swirl cake, as well as fresh scones and almond cake daily. Chris is the other person who I always see there and she is awesome! She is a great barista and is so friendly as well. I cannot say enough about the positive vibes and how much I enjoy going here. I have never had a neighborhood spot that I go to every day, but Rosebud Cafe has changed that. There is a really cool loose leaf tea selection, most of which Homeira brought from Iran. You can get a cup or a pot and make your own combo or choose one of her creations. The way they make the tea is really unique. I don't know the name of the apparatus they use but it is beautiful and uses steam to heat the tea pot. I plan to try every food item on the menu (there aren't a lot but they all look amazing). The first lunch item I tried was the hot turkey sandwich. It comes with turkey, fresh pesto, red onion, tomato, and provolone on a unique flat bread. Delish! I can't wait to try everything else! read more

Great coffee shop to meet with friends, colleagues or to do some solo work. Great atmosphere, very clean and open concept. Because the shop is located on the corner of the street, the natural light shines through the surplus of windows making the space bright and inviting. Great coffee, had the house blend, Black. Great taste and I couldn't finish it all so asked for a to go cup and they poured my coffee into a cup for me and even topped it off! Had an everything bagel toasted with feta, walnut and veggies. Still dreaming about it, next time I'm in I will be getting that again! The menu is a bit pricy but the quality is great and you can see your food being made in front of you. read more

I absolutely loved this cafe! It is cute, quiet, and the staff is fantastic. I had a medium latte and the avocado toast and I would recommend these options to anyone. They are priced well and totally worth every penny! I also love that they have local artist work for sale. read more

This neighborhood spot is excellent. Everything is made to order and, unlike many other places if its kind, they never skimp on fresh ingredients. I enjoy everything on the menu. My favorites for breakfast are the bagel and lox and the avocado toast. The owner is a delight. Highly recommend! read more

Rosebud Cafe - Avocado toast with extra Cholula hot sauce and a side of bacon - Cafes Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Cold brew was brutally stale & the baristas were a bit unprofessional upon requesting a simple flat white. I usually don't leave reviews but this experience was a bit pathetic. I'd like to inform the ladies in the front that a latte and a flat white have different ratios of milk... please do some more research in order to obtain a more WORLDLY VIEW on coffee and remember to treat your patrons with respect and kindness. read more

My wife & I spent a marvelous 1 1/2 hours here this morning, breakfast bagel (an Einstein's fan, understand) she's persuaded this was the very best ever. I went for the breakfast burrito (bacon, diced potatoes, &!of course, eggs -just-right-served w great salsa. Not too hot, just a bit of zing! The interior was nicely done. Not too much noise (mid-morning), WiFi was being used (MacAir's, to be sure) at most every table & apparently a university hangout. Will we return? For sure! read more

Great prices on coffee for being in the city - definitely a local stop for folks in the neighborhood. Seating can be a bit sparse if you hit prime times on a Saturday. read more

I very much enjoyed the rose with lemon verbena tea. But I was disappointed with the bagel with lox. It was not toasted enough, there was not enough cream cheese, and it oddly came with a lot of bland chunky diced tomatoes on top. I would suggest using sliced tomatoes; I know it doesn't sound intuitive, but it would make for an easier bite. My friend had a chicken pesto sandwich which he unenthusiastically said was good. It didn't look very impressive. I want to like this place. It is a beautiful space so I had higher expectations for them. I hesitant to try the food again but if I'm nearby I might come back for the tea. They have a wonderful selection of their own blended teas. And you can get any of them iced. read more

Really friendly and attentive staff, you would feel like family hereBreakfast Burrito

I ventured to this adorable coffeeshop for some coworking in Denver last week. I was with some gal pals and requirements included three things: caffeinated beverages (including tea), wifi, and a cozy atmosphere. Rosebud hit all three of those! I ordered a cold brew and grabbed a bacon burrito from the fridge which was made somewhere in CO and warmed up there. They have all types of coffee, but this place is surely a hit for tea lovers. It has a Persian feel to it with lots of options, adorable teacups, plates, and simple decor. The interior is also super spacious and bright. The wifi wasn't the strongest but did the job for a bit. After awhile inside, we ventured to the outdoors where they have a few tables nestled along the quiet street. It was easy for me to find a parking, as well! I would definitely suggest this spot for anyone looking for a bright and quiet place to work or meet up with friends. It certainly feels unique for the area and I could see it appeasing all sorts of appetites! read more

You eat that Turkey wrap for lunch, and you'll be quick-witted and sharp for the rest of the day.

Excellent. And super friendly. This place has a gorgeous corner lot and they make the best of all that natural lighting and patio seating. It's a terrific brunch spot or place to study before exams. I'm a fan of middle eastern tea and the scents in here are terrific. Lots of tea options! This is such a refreshing alternative to your traditional coffee shop. Of course they offer that too and the coffee is equally delicious. The server was sweet enough to prepare an avocado toast upon request. We also had a breakfast sandwich which was quickly devoured. Same some room for the swirl cake which is light, refreshing, and sweet enough to satisfy without guilt. Oh and it's very affordable. I cannot believe 2 people indulged in beverages, meals and dessert for less than $18. read more

How does this place have such a high rating? The vibe of the restaurant is that someone's dad gave them a limitless credit card w no guidance on how to spend it. The food was eh & the dirty chai tasted like dirt in a non standard dirty chai way read more

Rosebud is a place where I can hangout for hours until my stomach growls at me. We came here on a snowy weekend morning. I love how bright the entire place is. Large windows let plenty of light in, perfect for studying, working, and people watching. The space is open, with some tables. Around lunch time, a buttery aroma starts to fill out the cafe, other reviews do say they serve some great nomz (though I haven't tried them yet). They serve a variety of sizes of coffee including a 20oz Large latte with 4 espresso shots. We opted for small and medium. Looks like they specialize in some interesting tea that I'll have to try next time. I do wish there were a bit more tables and plugs here as I can see this place filling up quickly. One of the tables was a big wobbly. Residential street parking surround the area. In this busy neighborhood though, parking would be dependent on your luck. read more

Not only this is a quaint cafe to meet for great unique teas and edibles ( highly recommend the Chai made from scratch), they recently performed a fabulous service for our group. We were hosting a Persian breakfast for Capitol staff, the cafe owner had her two large Samovars sent to the Capitol for traditional tea service and was there before 8 AM to make sure all went according to plans. She also supplied us with wonderfully authentic sweet breads made with Saffron, cumin and sesame seeds. Thank you! read more

Cute spot with a bright and airy interior. Not a ton of seating but it works if you want to meet up with a friend to catch up or get some work done. The dirty chai with almond milk was flavorful but not too hot. My friend enjoyed her cappuccino! I wish they'd offer actual cups for the people that hang around rather than assuming all to-go disposable items. I didn't order any food this time, but from what I could tell it looked yummy! Cute neighborhood spot! read more

As a grad student, I feel I'm in perpetual study mode, so it's nice to break up the monotony of home/library studying with a trendy coffee shop that provides a quality brew. Rosebud Cafe is definitely an excellent change of pace, and to be honest, I'm a bit reticent to write a review about this place because by doing so, I risk giving up what seems to have been a decently well-kept secret. The vibes at Rosebud are among the most relaxed, homey, but still work-inducing I've had at a coffee shop. The decor is great featuring wood floors, exposed brick, succulents-galore, cool bench and table seating. I do appreciate the plentiful outlets available for charging my laptop, phone, etc. as well as the free wifi which sets Rosebud apart from some of the newer coffee shops springing up that seem to have a vendetta against people trying to work at their establishment. Regarding the drinks, I've so far tried their homemade spicy chai and their french press using Nova coffee beans- both were a cut above your run-of-the-mill Starbucks/commercial coffee. Another great aspect of Rosebud was the availability of street parking on Pennsylvania and 1st. I only wish they were open past 4pm so I could stay for longer (read: wouldn't have to get up early)! read more

Rosebud Cafe - Pharm, Spicy Whole Milk Chai, and a Cool New Study Spot - Cafes Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Super cute place! I got a iced dirty chai and a veggie burrito and both were great! Loved the addition of avocado in the burrito.

Super cute & trendy spot for a coffee or to get some work done. Cherry Creek needs more spots like this. However, I do wish they had some cozier spots. It's pretty barren feeling, so it doesn't make you want to hole-up for the whole day. But then again, maybe then don't want people like me taking over their coffee shop.... Overall, a great spot to chill, grab a bite, and work! read more

Great service and the quality of food is very high. I typically get the breakfast burrito and they have multiple versions for any dietary needs, probably the best breakfast burritos I've tried in Denver. Be prepared to wait for food but the individual attention to order is worth a few minutes in the quaint and welcoming lobby. read more

Super nice people. Yummy coffee and snacks. However, my ex boyfriend went to breakfast with me here on my birthday and he made me pay for everything, on my birthday! So, not the cafes fault but I probably won't be a repeat customer. LoL. However, my current partner and I went in right at closing about a week ago and they were super gracious about serving us even though we unknowingly came in right at close and the coffee was delicious. read more

The absolute best latte I have ever had in my life! No joke! It was a maple spice latte and it just hit the spot! Next I got hungry and ordered the egg sandwich with bacon avocado tomato and onion! I always add hot sauce and ketchup, I took a bite and it didn't need anything because the flavors were so juicy and delicious and just right! This has now turned into my favorite cafe! I cannot wait to come back! Homiera and her staff are also so friendly and accommodating thank you so much for the hospitality and the deliciousness!!! YUM! I will be back! read more

Super awesome service at a local coffee place! I got a mocha with oat milk which was delicious. It took a little bit to come out but I found out later that was because she made it with the wrong milk and then had to remake it. Everyone was super nice!

Rosebud Cafe - Bagel + Feta + Walnut + Veggies and the Golden Latte - Cafes Near Me - Denver, Colorado

I'm a fan. Walking in, you'd notice the store itself isn't very big on the customer's end but it still has a very open feeling to it. Rosebud houses a somewhat lofty apartment vibe with tall ceilings, exposed brick, open shelving, etc. This is the kind of coffee place that I'd come to for a conversation, a quick bite, and some good sips. Having said that, there were a good deal of people "bunkered down" in their respective work/studying. And with the ample table space and accessible outlets, that's an easy reality if you're looking for a more productive outing. I got myself a chocolate croissant (which is hard to disappoint with) and a lavender latte. The availability of lavender syrups in Denver-area coffee shops is truly expanding as fast it the plant itself grows. All the same, I'm always pleasantly surprised to see it offered! This particular syrup wasn't mixed down with another accompanying flavor (there's no time for meddling flavors; it would be disrespectful to the lavender) and tasted like a homemade concoction (need confirmation on this). Four side notes that I think are worth mentioning for a coffee shop: 1) Whereas the music was a little loud upon my visit, the playlist was great! 2) The bathrooms were very well kept and actually fairly picturesque 3) Parking was a breeze, with plenty of street parking (untimed) available 4) Their large iced beverage was truly a large to me (I've paid the same amount for half the volume at many places before) read more
