    Machaca Style Burrito
    Sara C.

    This is such a neighborhood gem. Their menu is extensive and always satisfies the brunch craving. We got the burrito, omelette & pancake meal - everything was delicious. The cinnamon sugar butter that comes with the pancakes is next levelllll. The drinks are also delicious. The potatoes were the only thing I think could use improvement - they weren't crispy. Regardless, this is always a quality spot to visit.

    Breakfast Burrito in a Bowl
    Stormy M.

    I love the feel of a neighborhood breakfast shop and this restaurant has that vibe. It is only open for breakfast and lunch. We visited on a Wednesday morning and there was plenty of seating. We reviewed the large wall-length menu board and then placed our orders at the register. The attendant was very friendly and was able to suggest a deconstructed breakfast burrito in a bowl. That was the perfect option. The restaurant was clean and welcoming, our meals were delivered to our tables in a very reasonable amount of time, and the food was well prepared and tasty. I will certainly come back and try new options, as my first meal made me want to try more.

    Guiness corned beef and hash
    Joann B.

    The French Press is a very popular breakfast/brunch spot. I think the line almost reached the door when I arrived. You are not able to reserve/save a table when you arrive, you can only get a table once you've ordered your food and paid. There are paper menus located at the register, but the whole side wall is an enormous menu, so hopefully, you don't get overwhelmed by the amount of people and menu size. I am a sucker for corned beef hash and will always give it a try when a restaurant states their version is home-made. The French Press' version definitely tasted like it was stewed in Guinness and was very good. The cons is that I should have ordered my eggs soft or a bit runny to provide the corned beef with some moisture because the meat was dry; the other downside was that although I was offered toast and chose an English muffin, I was only given half of the muffin. Is it standard to just get one side and not both? Anyhow, minor gaffes aside, the food here is good. The restaurant is very lively and every table was occupied. It can get very loud here, so if you want something more intimate, the French Press is not for you during peak dining times.

    Vegan Biscuits
    Mary M.

    I ordered the vegan biscuits and they were delicious. They are scratch made vegan biscuits topped with vegan country gravy, two vegan sausage patties, roasted tomatoes and collard greens. Served with perfectly cooked potatoes. If the offering is still on the menu when I go back, I will order again!

    Black bean and spring mix salad.  Yum!
    Bev C.

    The bean and spring mix salad was so good! A generous layer of greens with feta black beans, a tasty dressing provided all I needed for a healthy lunch. I liked the unhealthy portion also in the form of a large slice of raspberry cake. Everything that is gluten free was labelled as such. A very nice touch when you can't eat gluten. This will be my go to place in Denver. Why go anywhere else?

    Me and my boyfriend stopped in while we were visiting Denver for a quick breakfast. There are plenty of options for everyone looking for breakfast type food. It's in a very convenient spot with street parking. The service was simply amazing. They were quick and the food was delicious and the entire restaurant inside and out is very cute. will definitely be putting it on my revisit list when I'm back in Denver.

    Great coffee and breakfast joint with quick turnaround times and friendly service. I thought I'd be disappointed with only one vegan item on the menu but it was good enough I'd order it every visit. The biscuits and gravy come with home fries, sautéed tomatoes and house vegan sausage patties. The biscuits are soft and the gravy is rich and peppery. I ordered a drip coffee on the side and it was a delicious medium dark roast, and the large is like a pint glass. This is a great option for vegans eating with carnivores.

    A few tables outside on a quiet street
    Veronique C.

    Cool and relaxed spot for breakfast and lunch. You order at the counter and they bring you the food. The vibe is contemporary industrial with exposed bricks, tones of honey and soft bluish gray. Parking is on the street but not a problem, plenty of spots available in the area. There are also a few tables outside and when we visited there was basically no traffic so it was quite pleasant. My built your own omelette was yummy with plenty of added artichoke. The side of bacon, thick and caramelized with maple syrup totally addictive! The cappuccino was also good. We'll definitely go back and try to remember to pay cash since they charge 2% if you use a credit card.

    Omelette
    Billie B.

    This is a go to place for me! The food never disappoints and it's always quick and delicious

    Vincent C.

    I came to The French Press for a quick brunch. Upon entering, there was no wait or line for the front counter despite the restaurant being quite occupied. Additionally, after placing my order, my food came out within a very reasonable amount of time. As for the food, it was typical diner style food. Nothing was terrible, but nothing was outstanding either. Additionally, like diner style food, the food was pretty greasy. This disappointed me a bit, as I wasn't expecting to eat diner food.

    This is an adorable breakfast spot in Denver! There's actually plenty of parking on the street since it's in a neighborhood, which is a nice change from a lot of other places in the city. The menu is written on a huge whiteboard, which makes it a little hard to see everything (if you have trouble seeing from a far like me). Then you place your order at the counter and they serve you your order! I got the veggie Benedict and it was outstanding. Lots of fresh veggies including arugula, avocado, asparagus, and tomato on a soft English muffin. Not too much hollandaise, so if you're crazy about it feel free to request more. It also doesn't come with a side, but it was pretty filling. Overall a great experience and delicious, fresh food.

    The family brunch I organized here is one of my favorite family memories. I made a reservation on…read moreOpenTable, and I ended up needing to increase the number of people to 8 a few days before the reservation. Accommodating our party was no problem. My mom, who usually scoffs at fancy restaurants and their fancy prices, absolutely loved her $10 ginger sunrise juice drink (I made her get it) and said that her sweet corn eggs benedict ($19) was one of the best things she's ever eaten. Our server Julie did an amazing job taking care of our party, some of whom arrived on time and some of whom didn't. The 20% large party gratuity was well-earned. I loved that the restaurant being connected to the hotel meant that the lobby was a beautiful space for those of us who got there early to gather and for us to all chat before we went our separate ways. Many of us were enthralled by the Moët & Chandon vending machine in the lobby, as well as the super cool "fire in a glass box" art piece. I had the $19 chicken philly skillet, which was tasty, but my family members who got the $29 steak and eggs knew what they were doing. My husband, who is incredibly picky about bacon, thought his $6 side of bacon with his $18 buttermilk pancakes was perfectly cooked and not overly seasoned. Thinking about this family meal makes my heart smile. Thanks to the Corinne staff for making it delightful.

    This is a fine spot in a hotel downtown, sure, but yikes the pricing was totally out of control!!!…read more Brunch, you know simple cheap stuff like eggs and potatoes, was $130 for TWO people. I don't think I've ever spent more on brunch in my life. Yeah, we got a couple drinks, too. Thank goodness it was my partner's bday and we got the dessert for free. A fine place, but be ready to thin your wallet if you choose it! I wouldn't go again for that reason. I'd find another brunch spot where I can spend $100 or less. Which is still A TON for brunch!!! Restaurants complain so much about business, but then price it to the point where they get less business. What's gotta give? Hotels have the luxury of being more expensive since they have people staying & paying on the company dollar. But, I didn't pick the spot, and I got a bougiea$$ partner! Lol.

The staff was super friendly and helpful despite being overwhelmed by a very large party while I was there. They take their time making the drink because they clearly want you to enjoy them.

Location (4 stars) This restaurant is downtown near the convention center. parking is pricy if you valet park at the hotel. Last year it was around $40. Parking in the lot across the street for $25 dollars Easter Sunday. If you use a walker, I would not recommend the parking lot across the street. Food (3 Stars) The Thanksgiving buffet is the best one. I would rate that buffet a (4). The Christmas and Easter buffet are pretty low key. There is a carving station (ham and prime rib). There is an omelet station. Dessert bar is decorative. Cheesecake was delicious. The warming station with potatoes, sausage etc. leaves much to be desired. The charcuterie station is sparse. They offer unlimited mimosas for an additional $25. Service (5 stars) Staff are extremely friendly. Cleanliness (2 stars) My only complaint, I saw a tabletop being cleaned off with a rag used to clean the chairs and then under the table on the floor and on to the next tabletop. I'm just a little picky about that. Especially since folks these days go commando and wear short attire, and you know their parts are on the chair and now spread to tabletops. Wiping up the crumbs off the floor with same rag simply through me over the edge. Atmosphere (4 stars) Spacious uncrowded environment. Nice decor. Bright with large windows.

    Excellent brunch in LoHi. One of the better brunches I've had in Denver. Great location, service,…read moreand ambiance. The food was really good. Was in a big group so split a bunch of appetizers - the hash brown, muffin, and strawberry rhubarb French toast. The star of the show was the French toast. The strawberry rhubarb spread was to die for, with icing on top - I would get this every time I came here and never switch it up. The hash brown was good too, but probably wasn't a great value for how much food you're getting. I got the Foxy burrito. This thing was huge, and was loaded. Lots of meat and potatoes in there, and wasn't too heavy on eggs, which is how I like my breakfast burritos. The sauce had a good kick to it that had spice, but wasn't too hot, and didn't linger. I thought it was excellent. Would definitely return and recommend for brunch and the area.

And I also hear so many people like it so we were so excited to finally get to sit down to try it over the last weekend. A tip is to get on the waitlist as soon as you can because of how fast the place gets crowded! Also don't expect a quiet dining experience because you will be surrounded by people inside and out. Once we were seated, I took one look at the menu to realize why it was so popular. Imagine everything you would expect to see from a diner, except twisted into something so unique! I never had an animal styled hash brown until that day. The server was also very friendly and attentive. So the food itself had really good flavor flavors, but I felt like everything was overly too chewy. So as fun as it was to eat, the hash brown covered in animal style sauce, it was nearly impossible to cut with a knife. I also thought pieces of my burrito were overly chewy, and it was almost better as leftovers once it softened up from the microwave. But it was very delicious and filled me up for the following morning. The fall style French toast was also unique and tasted just like the name so it was perfect for fall lovers like me! So overall, it was a fun experience, but we were just not used to the way everything was cooked. But the flavors were amazing!
