The Molecule Effect — Restaurant in Denver

Joined The Molecule for thursday night trivia and I don’t think I’ll be back.

The shop was completely full for trivia, and only one person was walking around taking orders. I tried to order at the counter, like I’d expect at a coffee shop and was told I can only order from the waitress, which resulted in waiting about 25 minutes from when we sat to when we were first waited on.

We ordered a lemonade, kombucha, and margarita flatbread. The kombucha was great, rotating flavors. The lemonade tasted bland and like it had no sugar, very lackluster. The flatbread was the biggest disappointment. Still pale white when it came out, the crust was floppy and damp from the cheese, and it had absolutely zero flavor. How you can make essentially cheese bread taste like nothing is beyond me.

For trivia, the space is very echoey and it was impossible to hear anything if you’re not right in front of the speaker. Luckily the questions were on our phones so you could just read them or we would’ve just left.

Finally, we couldn’t even tab out without our waitress who was trying to man the whole shop by herself. Luckily after some pity, the woman behind the bar let us pay out, otherwise we likely would’ve waited another 25 minutes just to leave.

Poor service, bad food, over priced drinks, and loud atmosphere. Hopefully it’s better as a daytime...

Terrible experience, I won't be back. I paid $6 for an 'Italian Soda,' which the 'bartender' made (for some odd reason) with syrup, soda and half-and-half -- and then added whipped cream to to it off. This was very odd and not what I wanted.

The music was SO LOUD (and TERRIBLE!) that I could barely even concentrate on the emails I was writing. The room is made up of only hard surfaces, so sound bounces off of everything even at low volume... I took a phone call from a business associate and could barely even hear the person because the music was so loud. By the time I left I had a headache from the banging and crashing of the loud music. The 'bartender' (in quotes because it was comical to watch him try to bartend) was completely lacking personality and was apparently unwilling (or unable) to show any hospitality whatsoever. I won't be back.

I had a can of soda in my bag, which I drank. I put the untouched 'Italian Soda' on the counter as I walked out. Of course, the bartender ignored me as...

I really love the idea of this place. And the location is perfect for me, However, I feel like you can probably get a better product at starbucks and it'll be quicker. I waited twenty two minutes in the drive through with only one person ahead of me. And then the drink I got just tasted like milk. I couldn't taste coffee in it at all. Or any of the pumpkin flavor or anything.. It looked pretty though. Just had no flavor pretty much. All milk and I can get two gallons of that for what I paid 41 cup of coffee. I really don't wanna complain about this place because I really want to like it, but it's just really slow and the quality, is not there. If I get a straight app black cold Brewer. Something it's good, but any other special? Ty drinks or anything that's mixed or anything like that. It's just not gonna be very good. It even just looks like a slightly tan. Colored milk... No flavor at all. Really? No coffee in it at all. So definitely not a place to go...
