    Such a delight! This walk up / drive thru coffee shop is a true gem that you need to visit when in the area of 40th and Wadsworth. They have a great menu selection with non-dairy options available. (Current road construction on Wadsworth but pay attention to the road and follow the signs to lead you to the coffee shop) They offer a Chagaccino which is made with Chaga Mushrooms and two shots of espresso, it was delicious! Cassie owns and operates the coffee shop and provided us with wonderful quick service. We even learned from Cassie that she roasts her beans locally in Denver. Support this small and locally owned and operated coffee shop by trying any of their items and enjoy their beauty!

    This place was so adorable and the girl working there is so sweet! The coffee was delish, I will be back if I'm in town again.

    If you're someone who drives the 121/Wadsworth corridor the sugar cube is between 41st and 43rd Avenue. This is the cutest drive-thru that's been here for 20 years. The new owner an enterprising lady Cassie took over just this January. She has that patient demeanor from her previous life as a dental hygienist. You have to be. I bet you she was good! With a toddler in school; opening up her own business was a no brainer. She can make her own schedule. When I visited her she had a steady flow of customers. Everything she uses is mostly organic. The milk, the honey, the coffee, the spices and some of the syrups( apparently nobody makes organic chocolate sauce).‍ She uses Copper Door Coffee. A local roaster that's also woman owned. Let's support local small businesses like this. Woman owned too! (GOOD TO KNOW): She offers sugar free options. Her best seller is Vanilla latte She carries muffins & danishes. Friday: BURRITO available! Health Code Total is 98% out of 100. (no violation)

    Vanilla latte

    This place is so cute, had an abundance of things to try. I got a vanilla latte and it was delish.

    Ice cubes of frozen coffee
    Dale Z.

    I have heard of doing this as a life hack, but this was my first time experiencing ice cubes made from frozen coffee. It definitely made my latte a cut above the normal experience. It was well-prepared, priced appropriately, and served by a lady who obviously has pride in her business. But, what I will remember is that when most of the drink was gone, and I just had a cup full of melting ice, it was like almost getting a free small refill on my drink. I was slightly disappointed that they were out of Splenda on this visit, but she did substitute a decent sugar-free syrup for me. So, if Brewery Rickoli is not quite open yet, this should be your go-to spot across the parking lot.

    Great coffee nice people will come again thank you

    Great coffee got a iced caramel coffee. Really nice people will come again thank you

    If you haven't had the sugar cube yet you are missing out! Nicest people in town with the best chia!!

    I love the sugar cube. It's a tiny little coffee stop that is so much better than Starbucks and the owner really cares about the quality of what she is serving. She has 3 kinds of chai tea lattes and they are always perfect. I love coming here and supporting this wonderful lady!

My sister used to go regularly when she was in school and let me know that the hours were super awesome for that routine - open at 6am, closed at midnight. Perfect for an early morning study session or late night cram. Or if you're just in the mood for all-hours coffee! Parking is admittedly a bit cramped in the front and pretty awkward to get out of if it's busy, but there is a lot behind the building with more space. There are a surprising number of tables and comfy chairs inside, and the vibe is kinda retro which my sister and I both really love. Their menu is pretty big and they also had a ton of holiday drinks to choose from. My sister has raved about the coffee they use (kaladi), so I got a drip coffee and since I wanted a little festive treat, I also got "the grinch" lol, which was a matcha latte with oat milk and pistachio. Take a wild guess which cup was mine in the photo. My sister got a hazelnut latte, which also came out really pretty. The coffees were ready very quickly, and we were able to find a little table near the back of the shop. Our three drinks (all 12oz) came out to about $16 which I think is pretty on par with specialty coffee drinks, so I felt it was worth the price. The one girl we interacted with at the counter was super friendly, too! It seems to be a very popular spot, which doesn't surprise me even a little bit, and I cannot wait to come back again to try other drinks!

(We opted to try the Cordial Cherry latte, Peach Lychee Italian Soda and The Blackmoor - all smooth, refreshing and caffeinated!) YUM! The variety of food items - made both in house and locally! Very cool to support local, especially when it's so delicious! Mom and I made our way to yet another coffee shop and liked this one a lot - so much that we'll be back tomorrow, and the next day! ;)

My son liked his pastry and drink but didn't think he would choose that drink again. My daughter was not a fan of her tea. The interior is very nicely decorated. The people were pleasant.

I knew of this place, but had never been until the new year began after it was recommended to me by another Yelp Elite (shout out Caroline!). From the outside looking in, you might not know this is a coffee shop. Very minimal signage from 38th. However when you walk in, you are greeted with smiles and a warm welcome almost instantaneously. They brand themselves as an Indonesian specialty coffee shop. I think it's cool that they've have a special Lunar New Year menu. And their pastry game is top notch, sourcing from heavy hitters like GetRight's and Banh & Butter. But for me, I can't help myself from ordering their espresso tonic. They pair the espresso with a coconut yuzu tonic, with a hint of vanilla, and a dried lemon wheel for garnish. It's sweeter than what I typically enjoy, however it's so damn delicious and refreshing! OBSESSED. It normally gets crowded in here, with plenty of people like me working remotely on their laptops. The owners are also extremely nice and have been behind the counter every time I've been. Coffeegraph has quickly risen to the core of my coffee shop rotation! I hope you give 'em a try!

Many on their computers/free wifi!!! It rocks. And the food, teas, drinks at the bar or tables or "get to meet others tables", all bustling, with families and Halloween children with their "filling up pumpkins" treats everywhere in Bluegrass, on the streets, businesses offering treats.
