    So I've gotta hand it to the geo-targeted social media marketing. I just had to figure out what a duffeyroll was right before I left Colorado. It's not just different flavored cinnamon rolls... the dough is croissant dough. It's a solid idea overall as it pairs with both the sweet and savory flavors. Anyways it's a pretty solid little place and being able to eat outdoors is a nice touch. Worth the visit.

    A MAY ZING!! Great staff! great attitudes and atmosphere! My first time ever trying these and they did not disappoint! I LOVED the savory ones but the strawberry one had to be my favorite! Fresh all around! Yall need to come by and try!

    Always delicious and these were a fantastic favorite for Thanksgiving this year. Got lucky and made it into before they closed. An hour prior to close is happy hour 1/2 price so we definitely appreciated the discount and grabbed extras for gifts. The manager was so friendly and helpful and didn't miss a beat on such a busy afternoon before the holiday, thank you for your kindness!

    Such a cute, cozy little place. The pastries were hot, fresh, and so good. we tried four different kinds and loved them all. You can really tell they bake everything fresh every day. The coffee was great too, and the place was nice and quiet, perfect for a relaxed morning. Definitely worth a stop!

    Sticky Bun & English Toffee Rolls

    I just recently came upon this little gem of a bakery cafe on Pearl St - what a fun discovery! Duffeyroll Pushcarts started 35 years ago in Denver by friends Jim Duffey & Nick Ault with a "one-of-a-kind cinnamon roll". The rolls are crispy crunchy on the outside & soft inside. After a year just Nick continued the business, expanding the menu & locations. All customers were greeted as they walked in, the staff was very friendly. The cafe was charming, with brick walls & wood floors. Hundreds of selfies covered the place & jazz music was playing in the background. I liked the circular bar that overlooked the bakers so you can watch them make the rolls. Not only do they offer sweet, savory & cobbler Duffeyrolls but breakfast and lunch sandwiches as well. We had the English Toffee, Sticky Bun & the Veggie Savory Rolls. The rolls tend to be on the smaller side, so you might need two. The English Toffee Roll had a subtle flavor of toffee glaze & toffee bits, while the Sticky Bun Roll had that delicious sweet tasting stickiness with lots of pecan pieces. The Veggie Savory Roll came with spinach, tomato & Provolone Cheese...absolutely delightful! Note: take the paper cup off that's around the rolls right away, the paper tends to stick. They have bake at home & mini rolls too! These scrumptious Duffeyrolls are truly special!

    Sandwich and mini roll

    This a nice quaint little place. And is awesome if you're a 40 year old that wears your cap backwards. The rolls are called "cinnamon rolls" because they have cinnamon and are rolled dough.. however, that is where it ends. The rolls are sub par at best and probably Just one level above the Pillsbury roll from the grocery store. The mini roll we had was cold, raw and a little hard on the edges. Trust me if you want a cinnamon roll this is not the place to be. Do yourself a favor and go to Lisa Anne's in Eastlake. Ok let's get to the sandwich. If your lazy and don't want to make a sandwich...we'll walk on in to this place. These sandwiches are nothing special and and not memorable at all. A disappointing visit however I am glad I went to experience this place ONCE and once is all it will take for most not to come back. Positive: staff is nice and very courteous. And that does go a long way and probably why people come back here. Because there is no way it's for the food

    Wow, can't believe I've been in Denver for two years and just realized I had a Duffeyroll Cafe less than 8 minutes away! I went at 8am on a Sunday and waited about 10 minutes in line, which gave me a chance to come up with my "game plan." There are lots of flavors to choose from, which is both good and bad. I wish they had a preselected "favorites" box for indecisive first time customers such as myself! I ended up going with a box of 6- two classic Duffeyrolls, two savory, one Irish crème, and one peach cobbler. The classic rolls were delicious and I'm glad I got two because one was immediately snatched by my toddler. The savory rolls were also amazing; I loved the ham and cheese one with mustard but my husband felt that the bacon one would have been better without the tomatoes (I am a tomato lover so I respectfully disagree). The Irish crème one was also pretty good, of the tiny piece my toddler didn't claim. The only one I felt meh about was the peach cobbler. It was kind of mushy/partially cooked on the bottom rather than crisp and flaky like the other Duffeyrolls. Overall, solid place for a nice treat. The box of 6 was about $17, so definitely not an everyday kind of thing but it fed 2 adults and a 3 year old and was very tasty!

    Pecan Sticky Bun

    Happy Memorial Day bun. My go to spot when I'm in Denver. Some of the best cinnamon rolls I've ever had. We come for the pecan swirl cinnamon roll and the peach cinnamon roll. Definitely is a must try spot. You can't go wrong with any flavor cinnamon roll you try.

The espresso taste was nice and mild, not at all burnt, and i felt the coconut flavor was just right!! I could taste the full body of the flavor without it being too heavy!! The inside looks nice and clean, definitely a great place to sit with lots of tables and the baristas seemed friendly and patient as we debated our drink choice! My only recommendation to the shop is to clean up the menu a little bit, i got confused when i was looking at because it had a latte section and a "tea mocktail" and "coffee mocktail" section which where both larger than the latte selection. I think instead doing a tea selection a coffee selection and a smaller mocktail selection would make more sense. I also wish there were a few more season latte options to choose from! Other than that, great place and worth the stop if you are sick of bitter espresso and a lack of flavor in your latte! This place does not disappoint!

The Junction Food Hall is at the back of that development on the south east side of the intersection of I-25 & Colorado Blvd. Being a food hall most of the time, the large space is great for a working meeting with lots of tables and mid-morning is quiet outside of the coffee spot. Coffee drink options options are as they should be, all of the classics. I had a latte, which was properly executed. I didn't catch the bean supplier but the coffee was not acidic or burnt like some of the other independent roasters in town. 5/5 would recommend.

It was definitely tasty and made to order. I also ordered a chupacabra Bonfire burrito. Overall I enjoyed the experience and will be back soon enough.

I was hoping the small coffee would be free with purchase of bag, but I guess it wasn't. The bag of coffee wasn't cheap, so I was disappointed in how over-roasted the beans were. Adjusting grind levels and water temperature, there was always a bitterness or too watered down. The other flavors present in the beans, however, we're quite nice. I was hoping that they would have real kona coffee, but unfortunately their supplier suffered from disaster in Hawaii. Not going to blame them for that, but objectively speaking, if a Hawaiian coffee shop doesn't have Hawaiian coffee, then I am sad about it. At the same time, due to the circumstances, there is a compelling reason to throw some more support behind them.

    There are coffee shops... and then there are places that seem to get you before you even order…read more Corvus Coffee Roasters is that kind of place. I walked in thinking I would grab a quick coffee. I walked out slightly reconsidering my standards. Let's start with the latte. Extra shot, because... life. And this wasn't just caffeine, it was precision. Smooth, layered, no bitterness fighting for attention. The kind of balance that feels intentional, like someone actually tasted it before handing it over instead of just pushing buttons behind a machine. And then the ham and cheese croissant. This is where things got serious. Flaky in that shatters just enough to make a mess but not enough to embarrass you kind of way. Buttery without being heavy. The ham had actual presence, not just a salty afterthought, and the cheese melted into it like it belonged there from the beginning. Indulgent without tipping into regret. And then... the pastry case. It is not a display. It is a trap. You think you have self-control until you are face-to-face with it. Everything looked like it had a point of view. Not just "we make pastries," but we care about what this feels like when you eat it. This is the kind of place where: You come for coffee You stay for the details And you leave already planning your next visit Not loud. Not trying too hard. Just excellent.

(Owners' note: it would do really well!) We all enjoyed our drinks, including an Americano, chai, and hot chocolate. I tried their gluten-free muesli slice, which was tasty, though I did notice that other GF items in the case are still displayed alongside non-gluten-free options which results in cross contact. (Yes, I'm that customer who keeps pointing this out!) I do hope they find a dedicated GF baker and rectify this issue soon.
