Willow & Fern — Restaurant in Brighton

Stopped into town for a work meeting, and when Willow & Fern was suggested as our meeting spot, I couldn’t say yes fast enough. And let me tell you—I’m so glad we did! This charming little café feels like stepping into a warm embrace, the kind of place where you instantly feel at home. Whether you’re looking for a quiet spot to work remotely, catching up with friends over coffee, or simply soaking in a peaceful moment with a perfectly brewed cup of joe, this spot has it all.

The menu offers something for everyone, from sweet indulgences to hearty, savory bites, making it easy to find exactly what you’re craving. The baristas? Friendly, efficient, and clearly take pride in their craft—every cup is expertly brewed with care.

With plenty of cozy nooks, comfy seating, and an abundance of outlets, it’s an ideal setup for students and remote workers alike. Parking is a breeze too, with both a dedicated lot and street parking just around the corner. But beyond all that, it’s the vibe that truly makes Willow & Fern special—like stepping into a good friend’s home, where you’re always welcome and never rushed.

Safe to say, this won’t be my last visit. Already looking forward to the next cozy coffee...

Update: editing my review because this place made some improvements and now serves a very good cold brew! Thank you for listening!!!

I’ve even waiting a longggg time for a coffee shop in Brighton and so happy to see one! Love the atmosphere! I would be here several times a week spending money if not for one thing - I love cold brew but they don’t have liquid sweetener available. Like literally every single other coffee shop in the greater Denver area. They serve great quality coffee, but you can’t sweeten it properly ruining the drink. The coffee prep counter is also tiny amd crowded, and you’re vigorously trying to stir in the grainy sugar, making a big mess all over everything. Hope they dial in some of these details. Because I will be...

I had a very disappointing experience at this restaurant. From the moment I arrived, I felt unwelcome. One particular employee, a blonde woman whose name I didn’t catch, was extremely rude and dismissive. Her behavior went beyond poor service — it felt personal and discriminatory. I was shocked and deeply hurt by the way I was treated.

No customer should have to experience racism or be made to feel less than. It’s unacceptable and reflects poorly on the establishment as a whole. I hope the management takes this seriously and addresses this kind of behavior, because until then, I cannot recommend this...
