OHHHHHH MY!!!!!!! Oh my! Oh MY!!! Stopped in to this place just to have coffee and some quiet time to journal. When I saw vegan biscuits and gravy on the menu I could NOT refuse!!! OHHHHH MYYYYY!!!! French press did NOT disappoint! Everything from my coffee to meal were SO YUMMY! The collards were giving canned version but everything else was TASTY! I'd definitely visit this place again. MORE than enough options. Great for people watching. Easy parking. Great service. read more

Decided to try something new for brunch. Very chill, no frills spot. They had the menu very nicely written on a huge chalk board on the wall. Counter ordering. They had a wide variety of items. Our food came out quickly and was delicious. Large portions as well. We left full and happy. read more

Popular place on the corner of a busy intersection, but definitely a solid option! We went during Sunday brunch and the line was out the door, but it moved steadily and I think we were able to order our food within 10-15ish mins. Food was solid and I think fairly priced! I had the salmon benny, and usually lots of places give a small portion for Benedict dishes, but here it was fairly generous with a good portion of salmon. We also tried the almond tres leches French toast which were tasty and not overpowering on the sweetness! It is a small-ish spot and when busy you could be waiting around to grab a table, but honestly the wait wasn't too bad. Would recommend again! read more

Even though it's called The French Press, it's not French food. It is delicious, solid and hearty however! Of course lots of coffee drinks.

Been here several times - finally gonna review: this place is great: small indoor dining area but there is outdoor seating. The menu is robust and varied and all the dishes I had have been great. read more

Great coffee and breakfast options. Very busy on a Sunday morning, but the staff is really efficient. The patio is perfect, except it is at a VERY busy intersection, so you may have to pause your conversation until noisy vehicles pass. read more

Many options and friendly staff. Loved the tea pot and the mini experience with it. Love the gluten free options however not a vegan gravy fan read more

Food was so amazing. Fresh and hot food. They were super busy and we had a 5 top so the food took a bit but it was still fresh regardless. We didn't know much about the menu and the man at the counter was super helpful in helping us choose! read more

The French Press - -Lox Bennie -Iced Chai - Breakfast burrito - Cafes Near Me - Aurora, Colorado

This place is cute! Their menu is biggggg and its pretty casual. Theres not a ton of seating indoors, but they do also have tables outside to sit at. It seems that a lot of people will do take out here so we did not have trouble finding a table. The food, however, took quite some time. I want to say we waited 25-30 minutes for our food on a sunday around 11:30-12:00. I like the concept of this place because you order st the counter and then theyll bring the food to you. You get your own water and refill it yourself as well. The food was decent. Nothing really blew my mind, it was all just decent. I got the shrimp, cheddar, chorizo benny. I forgot it was chorizo until just now, it seemed like bacon bits instead of chorizo. The shrimp has very good flavor and the eggs were cooked pretty decent. I would come back if we were in the area, but theres nothing I crave after this visit. Service was good, we just had to wait a bit for our food. read more

There are ups and downs to this one, I really liked the ambience and the overall design of the place. In terms of service, it could be a bit better. It felt a bit tight and the cashier was a bit rushed. The server was ok. In terms of food, I got the breakfast burrito and it was honestly a bit dry. It could use a sauce inside to add some moisture. Overall pretty decent but still could use some development. Edit: in terms of their coffee, it's pretty good! Definitely not disappointed with the results with balanced sweetness and bitterness with a touch of bright flavor in the aftertaste. I got a caramel latte and the sweetness wasn't overbearing. Well done. read more

Never disappointed. Good food good coffee and friendly staff. I've been to both locations.

Really good place for breakfast, we got there right before the rush which ended up being shortly after they open! I had the biscuits and gravy, the biscuits were delicious. They gave you two whole biscuits instead of one split in half along with 2 eggs. My wife had the eggs Benedict and that was impressively good as well. They do get busy and ordering at the counter gets bogged down when the mouth breathers get up there and uhhh and ummm. I would be there as soon as they open. Food comes quickly and it's quality read more

Unfortunately our stop to one of our favorites today was not good. I was so looking forward to my usual Veggie Bennie. The poached eggs were hard boiled, the hollandaise was thick and was spicy. To be fair, they did replace it with an omelette that was pretty good -- it just wasn't the benedict that I had come for. Husband's french toast breakfast was just okay -- he said the french toast was not very good. May be awhile before we return. read more

The food was EXCELLENT. I had the shrimp and grits- the eggs and peppers on top took it over the top My mom had the French toast and ham and she and fur baby Cody Prada said it was fantastic! Service was quick and everything accurate. read more

Holy moly! What an unexpected surprise! You know you've stumbled upon a good place when there's a line out the door! This place is PACKED! There were 4 of us and we squeezed into a table, but it worked! Plenty of outdoor seating but it was too brisk for us to dine. Their menu was overwhelming at first bc they had quite the selection so it was hard choosing. We ended up with the all American and the French toast both of which is recommended. Such a gem!!! read more

I just got a To go order, but very great experience and all of the food looked delicious. I'd definitely go back again. read more

The Fall Hummus and Pita Salad was one of the best salads I've ever had in my life! 11/23/25

A real gem for breakfast/lunch in A-town. Solid options and everything is truly delicious . We stuck to breakfast and had French toast and the salmon Benedict plate. Full of flavor and a good portion of delicious food. Stop by and grab a cappuccino or enjoy breakfast. Will definitely be back . read more

I really enjoy the chicken fried steak here it's a solid dish for sure. I have a bit of an issue with there lattes though. First off they charge you to add sweeteners to it and they are not the typical latte in my opinion, there espresso is crazy strong and even if you add a couple shots of sweeteners to the drink all I can taste is that wicked strong brew. Perhaps this is authentic French style coffee but can't say I'm a fan. In my opinion a latte should be creamy and you should be able to taste the milk.. this tastes like black coffee to me. read more

Good food but not a great indoor eating environment. The tables are very close together and the air vents blow really strongly right at the tables. The line from the door to the counter where you order goes right through the middle. It was crowded and noisy and outside; the patio is just off a very busy street - also lots of noise and exhaust from traffic. The restaurant looks old and could use some fix up but it seemed pretty clean. The staff was friendly enough and for how crowded they were, our food came out pretty quick. Everything we ordered was good (not great) and the prices weren't out of line. I would have liked to try the baked goods but they were out by the time we got there at 12:15. read more

Great place. Horrible street noise!! Busy place at 9:00am on a nice day! I would like to return here often, but the cramped inside area makes for an echoing and loud place. The outside area would be amazing if they built a tall wall to keep out the street noise. Really loud!! Love the shade tree though. Our drinks and food were brought to us at our table, and our dirty dishes were taken away from us when we were finished, so that was very nice. I ordered a hot skinny vanilla latte and I didn't love the coffee bean they used. It was very bitter. But my breakfast burrito was amazing! I ordered the machaca which isn't really machaca but was chorizo. It was really delicious though. They fried the tortilla and the potatoes nicely. The scrambled egg was mixed with the chorizo and fresh chopped jalapeños. It was very tasty. I had it smothered with their pork green chili and that was pretty tasty as well. So, my final analysis is that it's a solid four-star coffee shop, but I do know they have other locations where the ambience may be nicer. Not a fan of their coffee beans today. read more

Food and service are great. I've been back twice this week. Atmosphere is great. I had the humus salad both times. It's been some time since I've had an audible, "mmm." Laid back. Busy on the weekends so plan accordingly. read more

Love their food!! On the weekend is always packed. So be prepared to wait for your food. Is worth it they have a very ample menu

Nice little place for breakfast. A little too tight and it was also busy when we arrived so we had to wait for a table. The food was delicious, I would say that I would like a little more potatoes in my dish, but the flavors were there. I didn't like my oatmilk latte, it was on a bitter side for some reason. But overall it was a good breakfast. read more

The French Press - Breakfast Old School Burrito - Cafes Near Me - Aurora, Colorado

Small and unassuming place. It is located in a Neighborhood Walmart parking lot. Their menus are posted/written on the left side of the wall upon entrance. I have to say that their menu selection is expansive considering the size of its establishment. I didn't take picture of my order which is the Turkey Croissant with Brie, Red Wine & Pear. It was alright. I chose Green Chili Pork for my side and it is AHmazing! My older son ordered French Toast (pictured) while my DH ordered Crab & Asparagus Bennie (2nd pic). read more

The place was surprisingly busy for a Thursday morning, but I am so glad we hung around for an outdoor seat! The food was quick and delicious; I had the vegetarian breakfast burrito and it was fantastic! My girls customized the crepes and were so excited to find them. We'd be back again for more if we lived in the area! read more

On our first trip to Aurora, we stopped at The French Press in Iliff Plaza (next to Chipotle). Right away, we noticed the lunch crowd (line at the counter and nearly every table inside and out was taken). The menu is written on the wall. We quickly made our mental selections and waited in line to place our order at the counter. It moves pretty fast. I asked for the black bean, quinoa salad with chicken and a side of fries. I received the salad with no beans and undercooked fries. It wasn't a terrible mix-up, but it's the reason I subtracted some stars. It was a beautiful day (sunny and 65!) and we were lucky to land a patio table. That was the best part! read more

We visited the French Press as one of our first stops after moving to Denver for a quick brunch. On a Saturday late morning it was very busy. They do have limited seating, but people seemed to move in and out relatively quickly so we didn't have an issue sitting after our order was placed. The price seemed a bit steep for a counter service restaurant, and the food (while good) didn't make a strong impression. There wasn't anything bad about it, but it seemed to lack flavor. I would classify The French Press as a safe brunch and lace for all palettes, but not likely to blow anyone away. read more

I typically avoid negative reviews, both leaving and reading, because they are always subjective and usually have something to do with service. So I'll say first, staff was good, service was good, food was ok (my order was, IMO, surprisingly bland based on the description and ingredients - wife's bacon was cold, eggs undercooked). The bigger issue I have is the place is really kind of dirty. Thick layer of dust on the window sill and blinds, ketchup splattered, condiment bottles, S&P shakers were sticky. And the walls are in desperate need of a paint job. Hard to enjoy your meal when you're trying not touch anything. Sorry. read more

We ate here at 9am on a Sunday morning, and it was a full house. Clean restaurant with smaller 4-seat tables that can easily be combined if you have more than 4 in your party (just get there early if you want a place to sit!) There are a ton of options to choose from, including gluten free. I ordered the Veggie Hash with gf toast, and a side of gf biscuits to take home. Both were good! I like that the hash was mild and sweet, and not super salty--a good dish to add more spice to if you want, or leave as is for something easy on the palette. Kids got pancakes and my husband got the Egg in a Hole dish, which they liked. He also got a decaf coffee that he wasn't fond of because it tasted like instant coffee, yet my regular coffee was good. The service was quick and thorough. I also ordered a GF oatmeal raisin cookie to go and it was delicious. read more

When we moved to Aurora this summer, we tried a number of places to find a really good breakfast spot. We found it! Amazing food and the best Earl Grey tea I have ever had. It's always got a steady stream of customers. The tables and walls are beat-up looking, but the food is fantastic. They also make the best bacon--I think a touch of honey with pepper? Nice and crisp and so tasty!! read more

I've heard some AMAZING reviews about this place. It's even advertised by other people on a Buckley SFB page ... well we went in with HIGHHHHH expectations and left absolutely upset, unsatisfied, and stomachs hurting beyond belief. We get it, seasonings are important ... but salt ... and I mean salt as if you've accidentally engulfed some sea water salty is what we both received on our dishes. Pretty sure our cholesterol jumped by 50 that day because of the amount of salt that was dumped on our dishes. My husband and I even tried to trade our dishes to see if we were being ridiculous and if we just didn't like what we ordered. Yeah no ... not the case. I doubt we'd come back. It was a mess whenever we went in, and the food was salt which is extremely disappointing read more

Ordered the almond Ed tres leches French toast with sausage and it was delicious! Loved every bite of that French toast. Definitely recommend. Also ordered the honey lavender latte and it did not like it one bit. Super strong coffee taste with no other flavor. I ended up sending it back and got a cranberry juice instead. Brought a few of my players and they really Enjoyed their food. read more

After dropping off a friend at the airport my friend and I were in the hunt for a delicious breakfast. A quick Yelp search and this place popped up. This is a sit down establishment. However, you must place your order for your food prior to selecting a table. The menu is posted up on the wall and there are so many delicious options to choose from. We both opted for the huevos rancheros old school style and the coffee special of the day. Once we ordered, we were provided with a number and then chose a table to sit at. It was Memorial Day, so it was a smidge busy. Our food was brought out within 15min and our iced coffees were provided just before our food arrived. Once we had everything we dug in. The overall presentation was pleasant on the eyes. Next up, tasting our delicious meal. Growing up eating huevos rancheros this brought back some memories. The food had excellent flavor and my egg was cooked perfectly. The potatoes also added an additional layer of texture that was great. Overall, this place was great! I look forward to a return trip. read more
