Remarkable, fantastic, unique... Generous!!!!
This was a delightful find inside The Tributary!!!! As a coffee enthusiast, I seek to find good coffee and great conversations. Generous Coffee & Cafe provided both!!!!
Nora was the first barista I spoke with, and gave her a quick run-down of what I typically like. She pondered, then consulted some colleagues and we all landed on the Honduran Latte.... THE WHAT!?!?!?! Exactly.... Caleb made an incredible drink and I'm not even going to tell you what it tasted like, because I wouldn't do it justice, you're just going to have to try it yourself!!!! So, +1 for the coffee aspect.....
It was relatively busy when I ordered, but as people dispersed after receiving their cup of deliciousness, we were able to re-engage conversation. I had the pleasure of speaking with Courtney, and she gave me a great history of GCC and what they stand for. EVEN MORE IMPRESSED!!!! Conversations continued between Courtney, Nora, Caleb, and myself. Needless to say, it carried on for sometime, which goes to show the coffee IQ on display! +1 for conversation...
We've reached a +1 for coffee and a +1 for conversation, you may ask what that means exactly... IT MEANS A 5 STAR RATING!!!! 1+1 ALWAYS = 5!!!!
Seriously folks, take the time and visit Generous Coffee next time your close. (or take a 2.5hr flight and 45min drive like I) You will be so happy you did, the generosity is something you can then take and distribute throughout the rest of your day!
Thank you for sharing your generosity with me today, Generous...
Read moreSuch a charming cafe!! My partner and I visited Humble House Cafe while on a weekend trip to Denver, and it was one of my favorite spots we checked out. It’s hard to say what I liked most — the vibes are extremely cozy, the decor is cute, the staff is unbelievably friendly, and the food is tasty. It’s a pretty popular spot, with a 15+ minute line streaming out their door when we arrived around 10 AM, but I can absolutely see why. I especially loved the pay it forward wall by the cashier, where folks could contribute a few dollars to a specific profile of future patron (e.g., newlyweds on their honeymoon, new moms, someone struggling with X).
Food-wise, we split a latte, a classic vegetarian breakfast sandwich, and their vegetarian breakfast platter. Everything was outstanding: the croissant was nice and buttery, and it went wonderfully with the fried egg, generous portion of creamy avocado, and sliced tomato. The slice of cheddar and aioli helped to bind the whole sandwich together and created a really wholesome bite. The breakfast platter was equally delicious, with two nicely scrambled eggs (which were very cutely presented as circles, similar to the fried egg) served with an array of fresh veggies and a herbaceous, fresh crema.
All told, we probably spent several hours here after eating to read, chat, and work together. I could honestly spend a whole day — or week — here; the vibes are outstanding, and I felt really at home in this...
Read moreWow. We've been to several coffee shops in Golden, and all of them were pretty good.. but this place blew them all out of the water on the actual espresso drinks!! I got the Honduran, which is a latte with a little cinnamon in the espresso.. and WOW. Just the perfect amount of flavor, and the coffee flavor is still right there. It kind of reminds me of Golden Grams Cereal.. plus espresso! My husband got a white chocolate mocha, which I tried since my drink was so good, and I also loved that! Usually those are hit or miss for me and I'm not a big fan, but dang.. I'd drink these any day! They also have a "kids menu" of fun drinks without espresso... I LOVE this. I've never seen this idea before, but it is genius. My kiddo would love getting himself a drink there and feel so special that he gets something too. Very nice touch to the menu! The atmosphere of the place, well, it is in a food hall. So several other businesses in the same space. It feels a bit crowded, even without many people there - I kind of wish the 2 restaurants in the center weren't there so the space was just open and felt bigger instead of a big circle to walk around, but it's a renovated building so they've worked with what they could. They have a long counter, full bar you can belly up to, and like 5 other places...
