Coffee Story

Food was ok. We were not impressed with some of the ingredients choices (such as mozarella slices instead of fresh mozarella, or a stronger bread for the paninis). I had the Teriyaki Chicken Panini and I want to be clear: it was good, tasty, but it had barely any Teriyaki flavor. It had a mix of pesto, sun dried peppers and avocado that tasted really good and fresh, but felt far away from what I ordered. So, definitely tasty but more on the pesto avocado side rather that what you choose. Service and coffee were the highlights. There was just the one girl working the ordering, the cokking,the serving coffee, keeping everything clean... she truly did everything and did it with a smile, so I was thankful, but more support was needed.

The first time I ever went here, it was separate from mochinut so I was a little surprised they are now one place. I don’t mind one bit (except I miss the Korean corn dogs that are no longer available.) Strawberry banana smoothie: 4/10 Matcha berry: 5/10 Strawberry mochinut: 7/10 (my sister loved this one so 10/10 for her!) Matcha mochinut: 7.5/10 Strawberry funnel mochinut: 7/10 Berry & Cream mochinut: 8/10 Garlic & bbq tornado fries: 3/10 Berry croffle: 8/10

Good place to stop for a coffee if you're in the area. The coffee is very good and there are plenty of seats available. They have pastry and mochi donuts available, but no breakfast. The donuts look good but I didn't try one. There is a toast sandwich with eggs, ham, bacon and cheese but not before 11 am. Other sandwich choices are also available for lunch. Service was good. Access is easier if you're going north on Havana, but you can get there if you're southbound. There is guest Wi-Fi - ask for the password. There is parking available in the lot.

This place has variety of drinks, donuts and treats. The dalgona I have ordered is perfect. Outside seating and inside seats are lovely. Definitely coming back here and definitely do recommend it

Cozy, very clean shop! The mochi donuts are HEAVENLY and the coffee drinks are a solid 9/10. I got a plain glazed and a matcha mochi donut, and a soy caramel macchiato. I love that they still have soy milk bc a lot of places don’t anymore! Love the covered patio, too. I will definitely be back!

First time going here and will definitely be back! The Denver breakfast sandwich was delicious, as was my iced matcha with honey and vanilla. Got some mochinuts too, very pretty and yummy. The staff were super nice, and the vibe was really chill. Comfy couches for reading and relaxing on a Sunday morning.

Got the Denver toast and bulgogi wrap. I wish they used a bit thicker bread because the toast tasted a bit soggy from all the sauce - it was pretty good though. The bulgogi wrap was also super saucy so it would've been better with less wetness. The coffee was super good and the mochi donuts were solid.

I originally called in to ask if I could wait there and do some school work while I waited for my car next door that I had an appointment, and of course to buy drinks and food as needed. The woman on the phone was brief but kept repeating herself saying I had to buy something which I had originally stated I would. Which I had planned to have coffee and a breakfast sandwich as my appointment was in the morning and the atmosphere seemed better than the dunken donuts across the street. When I arrived the woman at the front sat at talked to another woman not sure if she worked there or not for about 7-10 minutes before even acknowledging me. Didn’t think too much of it, and asked for the denver toast with no cheese but add avocado, I asked about WiFi, and stated that the WiFi code is at the bottom of the receipt, being hopeful I tipped over 25% spending nearly $20 on a small drink and a sandwich. She called my orders at the front to come pick it up, and staying optimistic I received my sandwich hot and fresh, good amount of avocado, good amount of egg, ham, no cheese as requested (allergy), yet absolutely no bacon. I was going to perhaps buy more items to go, but then noticed the difference in my treatment versus the other customers that came in. While I was eating, next door at the ramen place which is just adjacent connected by an open doorway, they used a very strong smelling cleaner for the floor, highly scented and it started to give me a headache, and I don’t get headaches easy. I had to cover my nose I was about 4 yards away from this doorway. As time progressed and I am working on my project with my battery pack as there are no outlets. I noticed she thanked everyone else but I didn’t receive the same service. Dare I say she is racist? Because everyone else had different treatment and nicer tone and patience than she gave me. Far quicker service and more hospitable. I really wanted to love this place, and make it maybe one of my favorite places to study or to bring my clients to, as it has a wonderful aesthetic. I have a lot of clients and I would have really loved to bring business here. But not with how I was treated and the inability to even at least to tell me she didn’t have bacon. But to top it off, I could hear her in the back talking to whomever that I did in fact notice no bacon, and that I was then covering my face because the smell of the cleaner was very strong. I was here at the max amount of one hour and wasn’t even thanked for my service, the tip or even acknowledging that I was a customer, yet every single other customer had a different experience she went out of her way to acknowledge them thank them or be attentive to. Unfortunately I will probably get better service at dunken donuts and this cafe will not get my business, nor will I tell any of my clients. Leaving this review makes me really sad.

Coffee Story is awesome! More importantly we came for Mochinut's donuts. I have been to this location before, it looks like they moved Mochinut into Coffee Story. We got the caramel churro and mocha donut. It was a three pack for $10 & the donuts were delicious. The lady checking us out was very kind and attentive. My friend ordered a thai tea & that was also very delicious. This is such a cute place with great decor. Overall, I would recommend it to everyone.

This coffee shop is combined with mochinut. As soon as you walk in, there's a kiosk available at the entrance for you to order but they do have a disclaimer at the top stating for any pastries, donut, and shaved ice to order at the counter and not at the kiosk. I thought that was a bit odd but they must have their reason. There's plenty of seating arrangements and there's also a connecting door to the ramen place next door which was nice. Outdoor seating is also available but you can definitely feel a slight breeze. Drinks came out relatively fast and I was excited to try my drink since I love mango and peach flavor drinks. I was very surprised when I drank it since it was overwhelmingly sweet and tangy. I tried asking for some water to hopefully dilute the flavor to where it's drinkable but it did not help at all. I'm not one to complain about a drink but this drink was honestly not drinkable at all so I was hoping they could either remake it or switch for something else. Unfortunately, the worker stated that's just how the powder tastes like and to add water to dilute it ourselves. This is probably the only place I've been to where they don't really care about customer satisfaction and does not remake drinks or offer to make something else. Honestly more than a bit disappointing for my first experience here. Hence why I'm giving it 2 stars.

I love this place. The environment is always so warm and friendly. I also like how they have an "inside outside" section where it's all windows so it makes you feel like you're outside but with out all the bugs. My favorite thing to get here is the ube (or sweet potato) latte with almond milk. It's sweet and comforting without it being overbearing. The servers are also always nice. I've been coming here every now and then for years now and never gotten a bad experience. Oh also!!!!! They have Korean corn dogs now and they are sweeter than other ones I've tasted. Also way cheaper.

This was a great, quiet atmosphere to get some school work done on a Sunday morning. The Denver toast was absolutely fantastic, all the food here is actually made to order by a chef as opposed to most coffee places reheating frozen items. The chai wasn't anything special, but the tiramisu latte was great and I'd like to come back to try the boba and mochi donuts.

Love this place! Great drinks, coffee or not and love being able to grab mochi donuts in the adjoining restaurant. We love sitting out on the sunroom like patio after a great meal on Havana St (because soooo many fantastic options) Everyone from staff to other patrons are always so warm and friendly.

This little coffee shop is located in a strip mall area and seems to be connected to the restaurant next door. Anywho, we were out running errands and ended up here when the coffee cravings kicked in. I had them bookmarked just in case for these type of situations, lol... We came during an off time and so it wasn't very busy at all. I ordered an iced Dalgona Latte and a white chocolate berry mochi donut. I also read a bunch of reviews that said the "Denver Toast" is where it's at and so we got one of those to share for good measure as well. Now, I'm not quite sure what makes it a "Denver" toast, but dang that breakfast sammie hit the spot! Don't sleep on this, folks. Fried eggs, bacon, ham, american cheese, some kind of cheddar magic sauce, and perfectly toasted white bread. We gobbled that up! This was the winner right here. I just wish it had a bit more sauce because it made it THAT much better, but overall it was delicious and a really good size for the price in my opinion. My Dalgona Latte was also tasty and not overly sweet. The mochi donut was pretty standard and good. My only critique was that the food served on paper plates kind of took away from the presentation/quality, but the taste made up for it. Highly recommend this spot if you're in the area. It's nice and clean and looks like a good place to hang with some friends and even do some work.

Chill place for delish and trendy Korean coffee drinks and toast. Their egg toast is so good that it didn't taste the same when I tried to recreate it at home. Friendly and prompt service too. This is your spot for a quick lunch or coffee meet up if you're in the area!

Nice little cafe in the heart of the Aurora on Havana. Got me a cappuccino with oat milk and it was a 4 out of 5. Service was very kind and even had a kiosk to order if you didn't want to talk to anyone. I do enjoy them being open late, esp as I'm studying for a big exam, however, I was very disappointed that there were no available outlets to plug my laptop in. Overall, great spot but be sure to have your devices charged.

Tiramisu latte ... crowaffle... mochidonut?! Have I gotten your attention yet! This shop seems to be a hidden gem! I love the plethora of amazing options on the menu! It is one to try! The shop is great place to work in my opinion. It's pretty relaxed and most people were working on their laptop and there was one group of young adults playing games. But overall it was an amazing space! Parking can be tight since it's in a shopping center area. I'll be back! Thank you!

Very tasty coffee and pastries for a reasonable price. The service was fast, friendly, and efficient.

In summary: RECOMMEND Good service and quality. Place has coffee, sandwiches, other mixed drinks, and serve some of the donuts that are next door (Mochinut). I'm not much of a hot coffee drinker, but my wife love sthe Dalgona and Ube lattes (they are quite good)! Prices are reasonable and the place is clean. While I would rather jump out a third story building than willing study in a coffee shop, there's typically a lot of people doing that and they seem like they're getting a lot done. All writing their screenplays, I'm assuming. 4 stars for me because of my personak menu appeal. To me, cold mixed drinks are pretty average. I'll do a cold brew when I'm here, but that's about all I'm excited about. Overall a great place!

I'm glad to have come here instead of Snowl - I needed something different than just shaved ice and preferably coffee flavored. Boy, did I come to the right place. The Tiramisu latte has a deeper coffee flavor than any of Starbuck's frappe drinks, and is topped with what I call "cigar cookie", it was delicious! The Black Sesame Shaved Ice looked outrageous! In a good way. It's similar to what you'll get at Snowl but maybe because it's served in a cup, it just looked more tempting, like there's more stuff crammed into it. Coffee Story is a nice and spacious place to hang out; they're sharing a space with a mochi donut shop so be careful, you might spend all day here! The staff is very nice and sweet. I liked it a lot!

Nice Korean-style cafe in Aurora. Lots of windows and even outdoor seating thats covered. The shaken espresso is good and comes with oat milk by default. Wi-Fi strength is good. There are not many plugs in the cafe, but I have my own adapter that extends plugs so not a big deal. They also have Perrier and some Mexican sodas. Sandwiches look good, but I already had breakfast. Barista was friendly. Recommend overall. More lattes and ice drinks than pour overs or craft coffee. They should consider adding espresso tonics to the menu because their espresso tastes good.

This place is excellent. I wish it was here when I worked just down the street. The coffee is really good and the sandwich I ordered was really tasty. I ordered a Caprese panini and it was legit. The roasted red peppers gave it an amazing flavor.

I only gave it a 3 bc there are no electric outlet it you are trying to work. Bring your own charger. Recommend they add charging outlets.

Stopped here on a whim for an afternoon pick-me-up before heading to work after having lunch nearby. It has a comfy urban chic vibe with a lot of indoor and sun-room seating options. The barista was very helpful as it was my first time in so an extra star for the service here. I was beyond excited to find a Gelato Affogato on the menu as I have yet to find it anywhere but up at my favorite coffee shop in Breck. The espresso itself was delicious but I was very disappointed with the quality of the vanilla "gelato". For a whopping $7.50 the small portion of vanilla "gelato" tasted and looked more like freezer burned Dreyer's vanilla bean ice cream than traditional, creamy, delicious gelato. I'm talking crunchy ice crystals and everything. Very disappointing for a coffee/dessert shop. I was really hoping for the best with this drink and was sorely disappointed. I then opted for a $5 hot Tiramisu Latte which was absolutely delicious. I don't know how they did it but it tasted just like I was drinking a piece of the dessert but not overly sweet and just the right amount of coffee. Be warned - they do float a couple actual lady finger cookies in the drink which I wasn't expecting so I was more than a little confused by the mushy cookie residue when I got to the bottom of my drink. Nonetheless, this drink was a win and I will definitely be ordering it again. Can't wait to go back and try some of their pastries and other food items. I was too full to partake this visit. Can't wait to come back and try more items from the menu.

I was drawn to Coffee Story for their croffles but would come back for their Korean toast. Their croffles are tasty but they get dense after awhile. I got the Seoul toast and it was the perfect combination of sweet and savory. Although cabbage might be a bit strange on toast, it is pretty normal in Asian fusion and gave a much needed fresh crunch as a contrast to the eggs. I definitely want to come back to try their other toasts, which would be a great pre-hike breakfast!

Friendly service. Good food. Easy going relaxed vibe. I'll be back. Good spot to work on computer. Enclosed outdoor seating with couches.

Cute little coffee shop boasting fun coffee options, sandwiches and desserts. Has indoor and covered patio seating. Great spot to do some work and meet with friends. Really enjoyed their Croffle with berries. Also ordered their Denver Toast Sandwich. Hearty size, and was only able to eat a 1/2 of the sandwich. The person that made my mocha was very accommodating, making it less sweet. Definitely worth a second visit IMO.

Ok, so I found this place on TikTok a long time ago but am now doing a review . I always tell people to stop by here and try their croffles (first come, first serve) literally an obsession of mine and I haven't been back unfortunately but I'm always craving it. I've had some croffles in CA but nothing compares to coffee story. The ambiance is cute/chill. The employees were great and helpful too since it was my first time there!

I thought the coffee was great. I love the outside covered patio and next time I would like to try some pastries. Their service was good and courteous. My daughters enjoyed the tea but I wish they hadn't run out of oat milk.

Great service, cute aesthetics and overall theme but lacking in quality. Ordered a black coffee and caramel macchiato; the latter went in the trash. It was that bad. Way too sugary sweet, lacking rich flavor - it wasn't worth the calories. Coffee runs in my blood so it's a rarity when I find a beverage unpalatable. This is a fast casual cafe with coffee options IMO vs. a coffee shop. I think there is so much potential for this place to thrive. For instance, trim down offerings and find a focal point (e.g., coffee). Also, the place needs a sprucing up. The outdoor patio was so stuffy (enclosed with no circulation or open windows) and downright dirty. Seat cushions were missing. It sends a message to customers and it's not a good one. I won't be back and would not recommend going out of your way to try this place out.

Wonderful coffee in a very busy strip mall. They share an opening with the waffle place next door. Lots of space to hang out, read a Manga (many on site) or do some studying/work. I was going to give one less star as the parking is atrocious but it's not the Coffee story's fault that they are in a busy strip mall with only a few spots and many other popular business. Just beware it may take extra time to park.

Coffee Story has been a great throwback to my days I living in Korea where cafe culture was the thing. The aesthetics are great and there's a nice vibe at Coffee Story where it's a chilled environment to gather with friends or a place to study. Because of the location, it's also a great dessert option after a meal. In the summer, I ordered the shave ice and it was so good. The size is perfect for a single person instead of the giant bowls that takes six to eight people to finish. The shaved ice was sweet but not too sweet. And the presentation is so pretty. During the summer, the patio is open. Recently, I came in to try the croffle (a croissant waffle) and waffles should be in croissant form. I love the taste of a buttery flaky croissant but top it with whip cream...chefs kisses.

This is one of my favorite coffee houses in Aurora. I love their ube lattes. The coffee selection offers other varieties, but I can't seem to go beyond ube lattes: the warm drink is soothing and creamy all at the same time. Counter service is quick. I never have to wait long, even when it's crowded. There are pockets of comfortable sitting areas but they are usually full mid-morning because many customers have taken up the space. I live the spit near the book shelves and it makes for a pretty picture.

I come here almost every day to get an iced coffee, sometimes a hot coffee, and possibly a little treat and I never leave disappointed! The staff are lovely here and they even offer a little board with their own favorite drinks on it to try if you wanna get away from your usual coffee order. My favorite is the iced Americano but I must try the maple latte with oat milk next time! Can't wait to come in again!

First time trying this place out and ube matcha is amazing! Totally would come back again (:

Popular spot, quick & friendly service, good drinks!! My husband and I stopped in at Coffee Story on a Saturday at around 1:30. The place was packed with a line nearly out the door! Thankfully, service was quick and we were at the front of the line in no time. I ordered a matcha latte with almond milk & my husband got a caramel latte. Both drinks were delicious! The space is fairly small but we were lucky enough to grab a seat when other people were just leaving. Really cute spot with good vibes all around! I'd love to come back to try their matcha shaved ice - I saw other people get it and that definitely seemed like the move! Highly recommend this spot.

1st time here and not so impressed. Is there a next time for you and I? Maybe... After stopping by Seoul Mandoo, wanted to check this place out. It's at the same strip mall as Seoul Mandoo. This place also shares wall with Mochi Donut. Menu was kinda hard to read. Someone was trying to be creative but not to my taste. I ended up getting matcha latte and the girl asked me if I wanted sweetener and as soon as I said yes, ring ring and 50 cents were added to my $4.50 drink. Is this the normal thing to charge extra at other place for sweetner? Maybe they should start at $5 and include sweetner? Should I ask for a sugar packet and expected to be charged? I got my latte and the side of lid had blob of matcha on it. Not so cool. Am I m so use to Starbucks? Anyhow, my latte at $5 plus tax lacked a flavor big time and couldn't even taste sweetener. I thought Starbucks was weak but this place... will definitely skip matcha. This place definitely has few quirks to straighten out and I can hardly see myself coming here again trying to find a parking space at this super busy strip mall that is shared with Mochi Donut, Sushi Kazu and few other restaurants. I can see myself here again after dinner at Dagee KBQ?

The baristas are kind, the coffee is amazing and the ambiance is very homelike in certain parts of the store. This was a great place for a coffee date for me and the bestie. We will be back!

I am really bummed. When I first tried this place months ago it was great. My cappuccino was near perfect (which says a lot since recently most places just give you a latte when you ask for a cappuccino) and the young woman at the counter was friendly. It has gradually gone down hill from there. People aren't greeted when they enter, the staff is rarely friendly and my coffee is lukewarm more often than not. Literally cool enough to be given to a baby. Once I took my coffee back to the counter because it was practically cold and they seemed confused as to why I wanted my hot coffee to be hot. The sandwiches are still great and I love La Columbe coffee. Please do some training on customer service and training for the baristas. I really want you to be successful.

This place is cute! I always wanted to try what a Korean Cafe had to offer. I got the Ube Matcha: it was good! Not too sweet just how I like it. But the matcha flavor wasn't that strong, ube is kind of a strong flavor so I get it. I also had the teriyaki pannini: it was light and good flavor.kind of expensive for my taste but I guess it's kind of worth it with the amount of chicken and avocado you get. Service was good. Git the food and drinks out in a timely manner, although I didn't interact with the employees much. Overall: it's a nice place to chill and talk with a couple friends or family. It's quiet and mochinut is connected to it so you can grab a mochi donut or try their croffles!

I came here to try the Croffle. It's a mix between and waffle and a croissant. It had chocolate shavings, cream, and basil. It was very good! It has the flaky layers on the inside and the right texture. Would definitely come back to try another flavor or one of their coffees. The shop was cute and quiet. A lot of people were working on their laptops and they have an outdoor patio as well.

I was finally able to make my way in to Coffee Story and it did not disappoint! First, can I share some exciting news?! Mochi Donuts will be opening next door with plans to connect the two shops with a small pathway/door. How perfect for these two spaces to come together! I didn't veer too much from my usual coffee order: Vanilla Latte (I know, such a vanilla order). But it was delicious and perfect! Next time, will definitely order some of the desserts and macarons. I came in with my laptop with plans to work here for a few hours. Unfortunately, the one area that had electric outlets was taken by a big group having a meeting/gathering. But the staff was super helpful! I sat at the "bar"/barstools where they pulled my cord to the other side of their counter to help me get charged up. And once that party left, I was able to find space in the corner by the outlet. My friend met me here and we worked together for an entire afternoon. We saw such diverse customers come through, which is what I love about Aurora! This is such a great location and really excited we have a locally-owned coffee shop here to support!

I loved coffee there, but I didn't like the food. Overall nice place to study and meetup with friends

I look forward to many visits here. The staff is very nice and it is a great spot to meet a friend or get some work done. The inside has plenty of seating and feels pretty roomy. So far, I have only had the coffee but the food looks delicious. The coffee was a 3.5 or 4 for me but I am super picky on coffee. I look forward to making this a regular spot.

Coffee was okay went a couple of times and every time I went the servers acted always in a bad mood and very rude.

I love this coffee shop. It feels so cozy and clean. My go to order is the matcha latte with almond milk, yum they have updated the seating so there are more chairs available and also outdoor seating. There are lunch options now too! Definitely a great place to read and unwind.

Cute coffee shop with delicious desserts! I love the parfait desserts that they have with flavors like matcha and black sesame! The store is clean and and the staff are attentive and quick. I recommend to anyone in the area looking to try a cafe with yummy Asian inspired desserts. The only thing I have to say is that the mochi was a bit hard, but besides that everything was good.

Anytime my friends and I think about meeting for coffee, this is almost always the default if we are in the area. The drinks are always good. The service is fast. It's a great place to sit and chat with friends. If they have cinnamon rolls I definitely recommend trying them. It pairs nicely with a latte!

This was our first visit to Coffee Story and I have to say we were impressed by the cozy atmosphere. There's a lot of comfy seating both indoors and outside. The coffee shop has lots of snacks, including baked goods and sandwiches, but it'd be nice to see more allergy friendly options. My husband enjoyed his white chocolate mocha and I liked my flat white with almond milk. The drinks were very good, although they took a long time to be made.

Cute little cafe with bakery goodies, dessert drinks and coffee! It's next door to Mochinut. We tried the mango and strawberry shaved iced desserts. It was a nice blend with real fruits, not too sweet. I'd like to return to try their bakery. It's a nice cafe to sit and get some work done.

Come here for the croiffel- a blend between a croissant and a waffle! Baked fresh daily, they are sure to run out early morning. When we got there around 10am on a Sunday, only the grape and banana choices were left. We opted for the banana croiffel and it was quite good! The croiffel is topped with a sweet whipped cream that is made in house and the fruit of your choosing. We also had a sweet potato latte. FYI: Although we liked the drink, it wasn't as novel as we had expected as it tastes like a warm taro milk tea.

I came here on a Monday holiday and there was virtually no line. The food and drink menu sound very tasty. They have various lattes, breakfast sandwiches, and smoothies, pastries. I opted for a hot matcha latte and a Seoul Toast which consist of egg, ham, cabbage, and corn in a toasted sandwich. The latte took about 10 minutes to make and the sandwich took about 30 minutes. It was a little disappointing to wait that long for a drink and sandwich. The matcha latte didn't have a strong matcha taste, I only tasted milk. The breakfast sandwich was delicious and it was piping hot. With that long of a wait I'm not sure if I will return. It's more of a laid back spot, not a grab and go type of cafe.

When I first came to Coffee Story, the place was relatively new. My friends and I came for shaved ice. The cashier was very friendly and informative of their menu. The place was relatively empty with some people lounging around. We got the Strawberry Shaved Ice and Black Sesame Shaved Ice and had it on the patio outside. Overall, the shaved ice was really sweet. There were many layers of different things to eat throughout the shaved ice and definitely kept it flavorful. One shaved ice was more than one person- I could say you could even share it among two people. I highly recommend to get their shaved ice for a hot day!

Grabbed this while waiting for food next door at mochinut. The lychee ade was pretty good for $5. It is basically sparking water with lychee syrup and a mint leaf on top. It wasn't what I was expecting when I ordered as the sparkling water/soda threw me off at first but I was pleasantly surprised. It would be great if they had lychee in it as well but that's okay. My coworker ordered the chai latte and said it was kinda bland which is why I docked a star. I would love to come and try some of their desserts on display in the future!

Read all about it! The Havana Street Business District just keeps getting more and more exciting with each passing month. One of its newest prizewinners is Coffee Story at Havana/Iliff - let's wander in and see what classy culinary tales we can eavesdrop on today. As you have no doubt heard by now, this spot is a creation of the Seoul Hospitality Group, whose very enterprising founder is responsible for many of the District's rave-worthy establishments (Thank Sool Pocha, Seoul Mandoo, and the soon-to-arrive soft-tofu stew specialist Tofu Story are just a few that come to mind right away). But after all that yummy food, I can't blame you for needing a little-perk-me-up, and as its name would suggest, CS will be able to handily help you out. One of my favorite coffee drinks here is the ultra-frothy whipped wonder known as the Dalgona latte - or, as I've occasionally referred to it, "I can't believe it's instant". If by contrast, you're not looking to get quite so speedy, may I suggest the matcha/berry variety, with its cute little cookie straw? And the other side of the beverage menu has some worthy possibilities too, like a banana/honey/walnut smoothie, or one of their tangy-healthy Ades, in flavors such as mango, passion fruit, or even mojito - so drink up, woncha? Hmm, what was that? Oh, all that decision-making has gotten your appetite worked up again? Well, don't worry - as it just so happens, CS is also renowned for its array of eminently munchable morsels. In fact, the last time I stopped by, I got to try one of their tempting hot sandwiches - in this case, the Seoul Toast, brimming with thick-sliced ham, cabbage shreds, and corn kernels and bound in a cheddar-y emulsion. But I can also see why your attention seems to be drawn to the Bulgogi Panini with its mouthwatering marinated beef and cool mixed-veggie medley. Or, if your sweet tooth is seeking a little serenade instead, you could definitely fill up on an order of five Bungeoppang or Taiyaki (to use the Korean and Japanese terms respectively) - cute little carp-shaped pastries packed with - for example - Danpat (sweet adzuki-bean paste) or chocolate. These and many other items await your visit to this Havana Street gem. To paraphrase Rod Stewart, "Every coffee tells a story" - what's yours?

The coffee is good, but has an uptight vibe for a coffee shop. Was hassled one time about having a dog with me and another time from leaning my bike along the wall as I drank my coffee.

Ok I was definitely influenced by Denver Food Scene on insta and knew next Time I was in the area I was absolutely stopping in to coffee story. The sad part is Alfie used to live almost right across the street but alas now we are practically in Thornton :-/ Anyways as I think wistfully back of Better location days I realize I need to get back on track here. Anyways we had made plans to wash the dogs today and as our dog was is not terribly far from here I decided to make a day of it and take them to the dog park and finally pop in here. I also knew because I am not in the area often I not only would be ordering a shaved ice but also a coffee AND probably some macarons. No shame my friends I purposefully did not eat breakfast for this lol. Anyways the decor is adorable, there's quite a bit of space so people can distance and what not and still enjoy their coffees. They also have plants everywhere which of course I loved. And the chairs and table were trendy and cute. Honestly If Alfie still lived right by here I would probably come here to work and drink awesome coffees. Sad. The coffee was great, I got the tiramisu latte with coconut milk. It honestly was a great / perfect level of sweetness. I didn't think it was overpowering at all and really enjoyed it. It was also served with a cute cookie thing which made for great photos of course. Now I am embarrassed to say I haven't really ever had a proper shaved ice, I know terribly embarrassing I know. But that changed today as I ordered the mango shaved Ice and oh my. It was great. I thought about bringing it to Alfie (this was before I tried it) but after I took a few bites I knew he would be on his own. It's sooo sooo good with fresh mango, some kind of sauce, and even little pieces of I think cheesecake? Amazing. I will admit I have yet to try the macarons yet...because well I'm sure you can see I've had about all the Sweets ans treats I need today BUT they are beautiful and if the other two items I did try are any indication they are going to be fantastic...there is little doubt in my mind. I can't wait to come back and try all the other flavors or shaved ice and get more coffee!
