Hands down one of the friendliest and nicest coffee shops I've ever been at! CJ and Annalisa are the sweetest baristas I've ever met!

I stopped at this quaint little neighborhood cafe on the way home from the Denver Zoo. It is a total gem, great coffee, service, and food. I really like their patio and enjoyed the most delicious veggie panini with Turkey. Highly recommend this cafe. I'll be back! read more

I absolutely love this Denver gem. Denver is not short of adorable, delicious, kind hearted, beautiful coffee shops. This one is no different.. well except that this Ethiopian inspired cafe reminds you to be a good human, has a lovely outdoor patio, and lots of books and artwork to admire. I also got two London Fogs here. And I can assure you, the baristas were consistent! Plus everyone was nice. Which is always nice. read more

Very nice little neighborhood coffee house with a great outdoor area. Service was great! It was a bit busy when I went on a Sunday late morning, but service did come with a smile. The location is in an older Denver neighborhood, so it was very quiet. Overall enjoyed and will need to go back during warmer weather to check out the outdoor area. read more

Awesome coffee! Great vibes. Everyone who works here rules. I go to this coffee shop all the time and am never disappointed.

Good coffee/cafe in the neighborhood we were staying in. The bakery display case looked a little sad, but while we were sitting and sipping our coffee, we noticed that more baked goods were being delivered. The vibe is a little eccentric but the service was friendly. I appreciate how they allow you to pour your own soy, they give you the carton on the counter and you add as much or as little as you want! read more

Loved this little gem. Stopped in before checking into my Airbnb. What a pleasant surprise. Had the grilled panini Mozzetta sandwich - wow - delicious. It was marvelous. ALL of the beans in this cafe are from Africa. I felt so comfortable and welcome. I am sure that this will be a hangout for me. read more

I stopped in to grab a quick breakfast on my way to class and ordered a breakfast burrito to go. The decor is adorable and very artsy. "Dog treats at the register" type of place. The cashier was cute and super friendly. She seemed very calm and efficient. That being said, it took quite a while to get my breakfast. After I ordered, several more people came in. I'm pretty sure I heard a microwave beep several times. My burrito was definitely pre-made and heated up but honestly, not bad. Relatively unremarkable except for the cheerful vibe and artsy decor. read more

Whittier Cafe - Relaxed and fun cafe! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Denver, Colorado

I have been supporting this cafe and owner since it opened. They have always been slow, but today I stood at the counter for 10 min while 3 employees completely ignored me. I called to speak to the owner rather than writing a review and got hassled by a man who answered the phone. Super disappointed in this place. Kindness use to be their strength. read more

My fav coffee shop in denver. A great place to grab a quick bite, meet with clients, and even get some work done. The owner is so sweet and love the work she's doing in our communities. read more

Love this neighborhood cafe. They have good coffee and the space is great for doing work or catching up with friends. I like their cold brew - reasonably priced and good flavor (tasty but not too strong). I just wish they had a bike rack! There isn't really anywhere good to lock your bike read more

Came here today after nice bike ride to city park with my boyfriend. Nice little hole in the wall near 5-points. I got a vanilla latte and he got a macchiato both with extra shots, and they were scrumptious. Of course we just had to try a blueberry scone that was staring us right in the face. Spectacular tasting scone!! There is a nice patio area outside to enjoy the neighborhood, and jazz-life music. I dig the vibe! read more

This is such a gem in the community! Amazing drinks paired with local food trucks and activism! I can't wait to support this place more frequently! read more

Excellent turkey avocado wrap and egg sausage burrito... and great blueberry scone..,

Pretty cute coffee shop, I've been coming here on and off for awhile but not very much because the staff isn't that friendly. They often seem kind of annoyed that they have to help you. Today, my friend and I ordered drinks and pastries. They told us to sit down until they called our number. Called our number and there was only 1 drink and 1 of the pastries was wrong. When I told the person behind the counter she was so unnecessarily rude, like I was making an unreasonable request. She snapped at me to go sit back down and she would get the other drink and correct pastry and call my number when it's ready, she didn't want me standing there. Next time she called my number, just the drink and no pastry. This place just isn't worth it, and I'm sure they could care less if I go back. read more

Passed it up on my walk the other day but didn't have a mask with me, so I came back today and was delicious, I'm lactose intolerant so coffee drinks are usually alright but not amazing with the non dairy milks and I was still blown away! read more

Cafe on a quiet street with a cute outdoor area, serves wine and some cafe food - the croissant was amazing and the burrito was fine...nothing special. Coffee was good and pretty strong - the 20 oz comes with 4 shots. I liked that the menu wasn't endless and confusing. Guy at the counter was very nice and explained the difference in each type of coffee. Would go again and maybe enjoy their patio! read more

Just went for a late afternoon tea & coffee. Great assortment of teas. Everything was good including the blueberry scone. Very cool place. Would like to return for "actual" food. read more

Great pastries and coffee, but when we showed up with all our luggage hoping to kill time before checking into an airbnb there was no brunch items or burgers at all. Blueberry scone and chai were on point though. read more

One of the best iced coffees in Denver. I've never eaten here so can't comment on the food, but the coffee is delicious and reasonably priced. read more

Very cute cafe, lovely place with delicious teas and coffees! Great place to meet friends or colleagues! Very friendly staff. They also have social events here that are really lovely. When the weather is warmer, there is a lovely outdoor seatIng area! read more

Loved it! Went for tea with my sister. Big, open outdoor patio with comfortable seating. Lots of local tea options. Friendly servers.

Staff was friendly and coffee good but main complaint was the cleanliness. We tried to sit outside but every table had lots of bread crumbs and left over napkins. I love supporting local business but hope they clean up a bit to keep more people coming read more

I'm new to the neighborhood, and I received such a warm welcome from the Whittier Cafe! Can't wait to swing by for a movie on the patio on Saturdays, or to experience the Ethiopian coffee ceremony held on Sundays! read more

Adorable coffee shop, friendliest owners and the coffee is perfection! This place is down the street from my house so the walking distance makes it 5 stars. They have a comfortable patio to sit and stay awhile in the quiet neighborhood. Their breakfast burritos are good too! Always happy to support a small local business! read more

This place will take at least 30 minutes to make a breakfast burrito. There is always about 4 people waiting for their food in a not so crowded cafe. read more

Today was my first time going there and it became an instant favorite. The whole vibe of the place is nice and relaxing. Their coffee is tasty, and although I have yet to try their baked goods, they looked delicious. They have a huge patio (for all your social distancing needs) with great music that's not too loud so you can definitely have a conversation. They sanitized everything after we left, too. The employees are super friendly. I'll definitely be going back for more. read more

Pretty cute quiet coffee shop on a totally un-assuming street corner. I would not say that I would go out of my way to ever come back here but I would not be opposed to it if a friend suggested we meet here. It was pretty eclectic and out there. If you are looking for a super trendy, cute coffee shop to grab some IG pics, this is not the place. The chai was pretty good, very average. I would come back here but would not go out of my way to do so. read more

Stopped by for a coffee yesterday morning and helped myself to some chocolate chip banana bread they had as well (10/10 recommend!) Was very pleased with the service. It was quick, efficient, and everyone working was so kind. read more

My wife and I tried this coffee shop out this morning and we LOVED it! The 20 oz for here cups are HUGE! Great taste and quality of coffee. The burrito was delicious as well. We'll be back! read more

I love this spot!! staff is so great and kind. I love coming here to get work done and the outdoor patio is such a great plus as well!

So great! Super homey and friendly. Got my latte quickly and it was SO good!!! Love the neighborhood-y feel.

Met a friend here for coffee one morning and neither of us were pleased with our choice. The staff was NOT friendly. There was only one table available and it appeared someone's phone was on the table and maybe a pad of paper or something. We asked if anyone was sitting there and a female came from behind the counter completely acting pissed off that she had to move her phone and instead went behind the counter to sit (she was an employee). There was a man there who was making cat calls to my friend everytime she got up to order something. The place seemed very dirty. We will not be back. read more

I was in Denver for a softball tournament and one morning we had a few extra hours before the game started. We walked here (which was right across the street) and had coffee and a croissant. My niece was really impressed with the coffee art the barista did with her coffee (I can't tell you how many Instagram or Snapchat photos she took). I will be returning to Denver in the near future and will most definitely stop here for a good cup of coffee. read more

Whittier Cafe - Love the coffee art! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Denver, Colorado

This cafe is extremely underrated. Aside from have a great coffee and expresso selection, they support marginalized communities. Best of all it's Black-owned! So if you're interested in supporting a local Black owned business that stands up for marginalized communities, this is the cafe for you! Also wife and outlets available. read more

Great baristas, great coffee, cute spot. Don't let the haters get you down. Denver loves you.

Great neighborhood spot to grab a quick coffee or hang around to get some work done. Added bonus they are open until 8pm!

Stopped by the Whittier Cafe recently and had a wonderful experience at this neighborhood gem. I walked in and the vibe was automatically awesome- Ethiopian artwork on the walls and a small area in the corner for coffee ritual (stop by on Sundays to watch!) - I could tell this was a cozy spot. I also appreciated that all of the coffee beans are sourced from Africa. The outdoor patio is incredible, with lots of shady seating - the tables are large enough to work at if you'd like to enjoy the outdoors while getting "stuff done". The coffee is also spot on; my cortado was made to perfection. Finally, the service was also friendly and really helpful. The only drawback I should note is that there aren't a ton of food options, but there is ice cream! Perhaps the icing on the cake was the breastfeeding art show that is currently on display - It gave me the impression that all in the community are welcome here and diversity is honored. read more

Reasonably priced and friendly staff. Beautiful patio and a wide variety of coffee, tea, iced drinks. (Also ice cream and pastries). They also have Ethiopian tea ceremonies. read more

Whittier Cafe, I love you. Not only is everyone in this coffee shop super friendly, the internet is fast, dogs are welcome, and there is ample seating inside and out. Whether I want a hot latte, an iced coffee, or my favorite here, an iced chai latte, I leave satisfied. Oh, you are hungry too? Not a problem - ice cream, yummy breakfast burritos, and delicious baked goods will hit the spot. This is my FAVORITE place to work in the neighborhood and I hope they continue to get lots of business and stay just as friendly and lovely! read more
