Mint & Serif

Mint & Serif is such a gem! The chill vibes make it the perfect place to stop by on a walk, get some work done, or dive into a good book. I ordered the Colfax — a shot of their concentrated house-made chai tea — and topped it with cinnamon for a cozy, seasonal kick (and a little immunity boost!). They’ve got great tunes, a rotating showcase of local art each month, and tons of seating — whether you want to spread out, stand, or get comfy. I love that they even have a kids’ area, making it a welcoming space for everyone. Between the friendly community, creative energy, and awesome drinks, Mint & Serif is one of those inspiring places you just want to linger in.

The staff members were the chillest, the atmosphere was friendly even for children, and that Brunch Bowl was worth every penny!! I went a second time and the staff even remembered my order from 4 days prior 🤯🫡 This will be a staple now every time i come back to Colorado!

Very cute neighbor coffee shop, with great service, good vibes, and a charming setting. Drinks are great, food was good and staff was friendly and knowledgeable. Definitely suggest stopping by. 10out of 10, will be back

Really love this coffee shop. Lots of comfy chairs Really friendly baristas. They have a great accessible bathroom. Fairly kid-friendly overall and there's a great stool in the bathroom even my really small kiddo could reach the sink with! I tried their hot and iced coffee and both have been yummy. Their gluten-free, tomato, basil, goat cheese Quiche is really great and I'm quite picky about that kind of thing!

At 64 years old, I'm pretty sure that I am not this hidden gem of a coffee shop's main demographic. It looks like the type of place where the customers and staff all know what hashtags, bitcoin, and AI mean. This relaxed and friendly place reminds me of a modern "Central Perk" where the rest of the patrons are enjoying exotic drinks like Lavender Lattes, Chai Teas, and a host of beverages that they probably served at the Mos Eisley Cantina, rather than the diners I grew up in back in New Jersey. As a customer, I am a perpetually scowling old guy who just wants a cup of regular coffee with room for cream and sugar. And you know what, they don't flinch, smirk, or make me feel like I am wasting their creative drink making skills. They make me feel right at home. The staff here is ridiculously nice and professional, even to the rude person in front of me who held up the line talking on his cell phone when it was his turn to order. In fact, they're so nice I always wind up losing the scowl I walk in with. The place has a warm artsy vibe to it, and they appear to be much more than just a "coffee shop" with having a wide variety of events like art shows and other things that an anti-social introvert like me tries to avoid but would be enjoyed by a normal person. I rate this place 5 stars of 5, and like it so much that I may actually have to try one of those fancy coffees the next time I visit.

This is one of the best coffee shops I've been to. The people who work here are super nice, the tea is great, and the brunch bowl is delicious. The outdoor area offers a nice secluded space and the interior is very comfortable with lots of outlets for computers.

Amazing coffee and pastries! Highly recommend the apple cinnamon scone 🍎💗 Great atmosphere and wonderful staff

I visited here for a community writing retreat. It's such a great space for not only coffee, but a chance to attend events and meet new people. I was blown away with what a great community space it was in order for the retreat to host simultaneous classes, shop, and connect, without disturbing other visitors. Big thanks to Mint & Serif!

Loved the atmosphere of this place! Friendly service, lots of art, locals-vibe. The drinks were also very good! This is a great place to hang with friends or work quietly. Plenty of seating inside and some tables outside too!

Stumbled upon this rad little coffee shop. Love love love!!! Oatmilk Latte was great. Strawberry croissant was warm and perfectly sweet. Such welcoming, kind staff. Surprise highlight was the gift shop attached. So many little trinkets and funky art pieces. I'd definitely work here or just hang and be cozy. Go!

This is a cute coffee spot with delicious coffee and pastries along with local artwork. I've met a couple of friends here for a morning coffee and service and product have both been consistent. Ticked away off Colfax, it's also lovely to sit outside or walk around the park/walking path directly outside.

This place is seriously cute!! I love the different rooms and the variety of couches, chairs, and tables. The music was set at a nice volume- you can have a conversation, making it a good place for a meeting or catching up with a friend. Or you could study or work solo without being distracted. I had a chai and it was quite tasty and perfectly spicy. I'll definitely be back- what a great (and necessary) addition to the neighborhood!

Had a great experience coming here. The lady helping me was super nice and helpful! I really enjoyed the ambiance. Great spot to sit and read or work with a cup of coffee. I had a cafe au lait and a scone. Both great. Coffee had just the right balance of steamed milk and coffee. Scone was wonderful and most importantly, not dry! :) will come back! Cool decor too!

If you're coming here it's for the ambiance. It has great artwork and enough seating/parking. I'm surprised there's great reviews for the coffee. The drip was very watered down and the mocha tasted more chocolate than espresso. You can tell the coffee is watered down in my photo. I love coffee and didn't get the best impression from this location. So I am disappointed.

A great meet up place, near to all but just off the main drag. Lots of little rooms, lots of art, and of course (a must) great coffee and tea drinks! I don't do sweets but I see an amazing selection including gluten-free.

I was so happy to discover this coffee shop! I absolutely love the space! It is unique and spread out, great for working or catching up with a friend. I love all the different seating options! They have really cool local art exhibited all over the walls. I've been twice, and the art has been different, so I think it changes monthly. I noticed that they do a first Friday art event, which I want to check out in the future! it looks like they do other community events as well. They have a great selection of food and I love the espresso drinks that I've gotten. They serve Novo coffee, which is one of my favorite local roasters. Can't wait to come back for more events and to try more things. My only wish is that they were open later on the weekends, but I understand limitations in that.

My favourite coffee place ever. I love going here. So much better than Starbucks. They have Lattes, Tea, Coffee anything you want. Beautiful area too, love the new spot. Only thing I would change, and I get it's expensive to stay open; but they close way too early. I get why though, but it would be super nice if they were open til later; like in the evening. Highly recommend.

A sweet little coffee (plant and gift shop too!). Be prepared to be welcomed by warm energy when you enter. Plants hug the air and coffee aromas will fill your lungs. Several food options (get there early if you want that delicious breakfast burrito). There are numerous spots to plop with a book or your computer. Pretty sure I could camp out here and work everyday for the rest of my life and drink all the delicious coffee and eat way too many breakfast burritos.

Mint & Serif is a great place to grab a cup of coffee, view artwork, and get some business or school work done. It's cozy and provides a lot of places to chill or work. The service is awesome and friendly. They also hold events such as ladies dance nights, first Fridays, etc.

I ventured here just looking for a place to relax while I waited on an appointment. This spot came up in the area and I decided to try it out. I was NOT disappointed! Super comfy local artist type vide. Tons of cool comfy spots to relax and enjoy your treat. Lots of local artwork on the walls and live plants adorn the space. The coffee is top shelf for sure. I had the mocha which was a perfect balance of Java and Chocolate. Not super sweet just luxurious and velvety. Pastries are fresh and flaky ( I had a chocolate croissant). I suggest order two. You're gonna want more than one for sure. The people. Let me tell you. The staff is so kind and welcoming. The greeted me immediately when I came in and we're happy to let me browse and explore while I made a decision. I will be back. You should try this place too dear reader!

I finally tried Mint & Serif after driving by it for years, and it's my new favorite Lakewood coffee shop! They have a delicious spicy chai and a very cute, calming atmosphere. It's the perfect spot for meeting with a friend because they have tons of seating and nice background noise so that you don't feel like everyone in the place can hear everything you're saying. Parking was also easy in the lot. I'll definitely be coming back!

This coffee shop slaps!!!! Food: 50/50 Customer service: 25/25 Ambience: 25/25 Bomb food choices, amazing coffee and a lot of art to look at / buy. I really love the open floor plan of the shop and how they serve the art community. Great find, if you're in Lakewood you got to stop by!

The staff and owners are wonderful. Great handcrafted tea and latte beverages. Beautiful space (though I know they are currently closed for moving to a new space) they have some fun happenings with local artists and gallery walls, not limited to first Friday showings!

Nice low key coffee shop I stumbled on while waiting for an oil change. I brought my work laptop and hung out here most the day. Great spot to work from home with lots of space for large groups.

I had the pleasure of visiting this amazing coffee house that uplift artists and serves delicious food. Aurora the owner was super cool. The staff was super friendly and professional. Clean and excellent vibe. Interior was definitely well planned out. Love the accent of the decor. Great presentation, definitely a diamond of a find in that neighborhood. Will visit again.

What a lovely coffee house! The pics I took speak for their self but just in case, let me tell you the decor is interesting to look at as you sip coffee and have a nice bite. The decor seems to be part Indian and part Kenyan with beaded items and cloth totes for purchase. This morning I had a mushroom and spinach quiche, a small chorizo burrito with salsa and a lovely Latte. The quiche had a nice soft crust underneath and the flavor of the ingredients was mild and not overpowering. The burrito was a nice change of flavor pace without being to spicy and had a bit of mild Indian flavor (not an overpowering curry). My Latte was delightful and I am going back to pick my daughter up and bring her here because I love the atmosphere, food and coffee so much this morning.

Numero quatro in our Colorado coffee house quest is Mint and Serf about 3 minutes from the house. A very mountain town gift shop-esque vibe welcomes you upon entry. Seating ranges from cafeteria type two seaters to couch and arm chair comfort throughout the first front level with a carpeted shopping/art/comfort seating loft area in the back. I ordered an almond milk pumpkin spice latte and Tim remained in his pattern of vanilla whole milk latte but added an egg and sausage panini, as the food options are super tempting here at the Mint. The cheerful barista giggled as I goated hubbie for ordering at the counter before I was ready and we found our seat in the middle of the slow stream of coffee consumers at 9am on this Sunday morning We both admit that the flavored syrup tastes in our lattes didn't shine through as much as we would have liked, mostly tasting like straight milk latte with very little pumpkin or vanilla...but still very warm and frothy and the panini was melty and delish! It should be told that there IS wine and craft beer available later in the day too for anyone interested, probably worth a try!

I love this place Nice cosy place with lots of room Tasty snacks and food Awesome drinks Reasonable And the staff is very nice! Spend your money please keep them going Not a bunch of snobs so we want them to succeed!

The food is great, the drinks are amazing and ambiance is fantastic for work or play!! And last but not least you won't have better service from anyone in the business. Aurora and her staff know how to take care of every person that walks thru the doors. If you are looking for a unique succulent, or something to Spruce up your home hit up All Its Own, William will have you covered!

Cappuccino was good Jalapeño pretzel bites with cheese was good Nice place to sit, work, or read. Cute plants in the front and back of the store

Great Chai sweet atmosphere, nice folks, getsum! We go all over looking for coffee,Chai, almond croissants, and food. This place is someplace we will definitely be excited to come by next time we're in Colorado. 2 cups of bomb Chai and a happy face can affect someone's entire day.

This has to be in my top 5 most fave coffee shops in the denver area! The character is unreal! Many super comfy, funky places to sit inside, and even a great patio for nice days! The amount of local art, jewelry, plants (all for purchase), is just amazing. The music is just the right volume, the ambient lighting is relaxing and inviting, and the people are kind. I absolutely love it. Oh..and the coffee, almost forgot I had coffee being swept away in the wonderland of delight.. anyway the coffee is the perfect temp, fresh, and tasty!

You've got to go in to appreciate how nice this place is! My iced caramel oatmilk latte really hit the spot on this hot day. Loved the unique furnishings and all the artwork. Pleasant counter service and a good variety of light foods. I'm looking forward to visiting again!

I'm convinced there is not a better place to grab coffee. The service is on point as always and the ambiance is immaculate. Go ahead do yourself a favor and skip Starbucks and go right to Mint & Serif.

Great coffee, cute shop! Grabbed my go-to oat milk latte and it didn't disappoint. To-go packaging (at least for hot drinks) is 100% compostable, and I'm happy to support businesses doing their part Easy to get to, and so fun inside. So many plants!!

Needed to find a cafe with wifi so we found this spot on google and now I actually never wanna leave. This is the cutest coffee shop I've ever stepped foot in, all the details here are so well done. We ordered the burrito, croissants, coffee, tea + pumpkin chai all throughout the day and everything was SOO delicious!!! Highly recommend, can't wait to come back!

Such a cute spot. Reminds me of places downtown/ Highlands areas. Very good coffee. Cool art and plants everywhere!

Quaint little coffee shop with fun decor and an outdoor seating area. Love the wall mosaic out front but the back outdoor area could use some sprucing up. The customer service was excellent. My son devoured his cinnamon roll and hot chocolate. I ordered an iced vanilla latte and it had the perfect amount of coffee to cream ratio and wasn't overly sweet. Would definitely come back again. If they were closer to my house I'd be by here more often.

A super sweet small on the inside coffee shop in Lakewood, with a very large back patio including but not limited to fire pits ample seating, a swing and lots of area for the kids to run around. The coffee is amazing, the team is super friendly, hospitable, and they clearly have a passion for what they're doing. This is the type of local coffee shop that deserves the support of the surrounding community, and is an amazing place to read, catch up with your friends, do some homework, get a little work done, be around folks in our community, meet new people, and just really have a safe place to be.

Stopped here at 7am to fuel up for a trip to Moab & can not say enough nice things about the food, coffee & service!

Great location with awesome local art. The vibe is excellent. Unfortunately, the drinks are not very good. They need fresher and/or better ingredients. It's your run of the mill chain flavors in an excellent venue.

New to the area and I have been searching for a new home coffee spot & I think I found a winner! StarGreat coffee, friendly staff, fast wifi & comfy furniture. The walls are coated in local artwork for sale, friendly staff, and great music loud enough to hear and set the vibe, but quiet enough to get your work done or have a conversation. Also love the phone call room, great idea. Will be back :-)!

This is my favorite coffee shop in the area. It's cozy inside and the staff is really nice. The last few times I've had coffee from there it's tasted really burnt though. Will update the next time I go back.

This place is so cute! I love taking people here who visit from out of town. It has breakfast burritos, good espresso drinks and a little plant shop in the back!

This hole in the wall in the WestFax neighborhood is a good place to relax, order some hand bagged tea or grab an espresso. I dont drink coffee so this actually isnt my go-to because they dont offer specialty drinks... But otherwise, a good place to have a quick cup of joe. Ive heard they also hold events and art shows, too. Always nice to see local supporting local.

Ladies are awsome there great coffee good food very warm and welcoming place to start your morning off right

Great customer service, love the Game Of Thrones theme for the month. They decorate their place every month with different themes. Great coffee and good people, felt like I was talking to long time friends.

I was surprised by the flavorfulness of the espresso here. Got a caramel latte and the fruitiness of the beans shone through in a nice way. The tomato goat cheese basil quiche was nice and fluffy, although I was a little disappointed that the crust wasn't crisp. The chocolate croissant was nice and chocolatey but also a little limp - I think maybe due to moisture from being reheated? Anyway, still made for enjoyable pastries.

After wanting to try this coffee shop for a while, I was disappointed. It was not a particularly comfortable environment for work (small tables, narrow & limited space) It's perhaps a better spot to meet a friend briefly, but not for a super personal chat because of how tight of a space it is. There were a few intangibles that made me not feel cozy or welcomed. It was crowded when I went, so clearly lots of folks do enjoy it, it just didn't hit the spot for me.

Working from the road office again, laptop in hand. I needed a place to stop, plug in, and use the interwebs for some work prior to my flight out of Denver the next day. Being a former resident of West Colfax, and based on excellent reviews, I stopped into Mint & Serif. So glad I did. For me this is a perfect coffeeshop. Smooth, perfectly roasted espresso drinks, great music, and a clean modern shop that still feels homey. If I lived around here again I would frequent this quaint establishment on the regular. The cranberry scone was delicious, and I had one of the best lattes I have ever enjoyed in the state of Colorado.

One of my fav places to work while I sip coffee. Because, 1. Coffee here is always delicious and consistent. I am not a big fan of burnt coffee taste at starbucks and caribou. 2. Ladies working here are always friendly and cute. 3. Music is on point, the place has comfortable seating and good vibes. 4. Internet is fast.

I stopped in because I was looking for a good cup of coffee. This place is awesome. A great little gem. I had there cold brew and it didn't disappoint. I love the outdoor seating. The art around the shop is great. Their bathroom is clean as well. It's definitely worth a stop in.

Nice little spot. Excellent cold brew. They have an interesting assortment of items on the menu which I tend to believe is probably all pretty good ! .....................................................................................

This is the closest local coffee shop to our house and it's a good one. I stopped in one mid-morning to do some work on my laptop and it was a perfect little stop to get some work done. It's pretty small, but there are a decent amount of tables inside. The coffee is really good and decently priced. I also had a local breakfast burrito that may not have been made in house, but it was still a nice option to have when in need of a snack! The service is here is awesome and I felt very welcome! It had a nice local vibe for being on Colfax Ave. I will definitely be back!

Mint & Serif is simply the best, hands down. Fantastic owners, staff, coffee and environment. You can tell the entire staff cares deeply about the quality of their coffee and customer's experience as well as supporting local artists and small businesses. This place is a must!

Great coffee and great conversation. Absolutely loved the environment my family and I experienced here. Highly recommend this spot if you're looking for some good drinks and a good time.

Had an absolutely delicious cappuccino today with perfectly foamed coconut milk (which is not the easiest thing to accomplish with an alternative milk!) Owner Aurora Hendrix is incredibly friendly and easy to talk to, a skilled barista, and a mom running a small family owned business. The shop itself has great ambiance, music at an appropriate sound level to facilitate conversation, a rotating display of art from local artists, and is definitely a comfortable place to sit and enjoy a delicious beverage. If you're in the Lakewood area check out Mint & Serif. You won't be disappointed!
