I feel like I'm getting penalized for getting coffee here. So, sadly I can't come here anymore. It's getting too costly due to Parking Ticketing on the immediate streets next to the shop. I love this shop. Their coffee is great and their staff is friendly and I know it's not their responsibility at the end of the day, but it's SOOO easy to forget about the street sweeping signs if you only come here once a 1 week or so and esp when you have things like work on your mind.I recommend they try to help their customers not get ticketed by ensuring they're aware of the ticketing dates, near the register or reminding them to check. It's cost me $100 the few months so far, in fines, just to get coffee here.
Really great place to study and be on your laptop! Love the ambiance and it actually gets pretty full. Wish they would extend their hours!
Great spot for coffee and to meet a friend! Plenty of seating and Wi-Fi!
Nice small coffee shop with comfortable seating for working long hours.Coffee is really good, and they have a multitude of kombuchas on tap!
Quickly becoming one of my favorites. Atmosphere is lively on Saturday morning and early afternoon when I'm here. Staff is amazing and very much pays attention to both their work and the people they serve.Features garage doors and plenty of sun.
I like this place, but their internet is very slow. You'll get about 1 Mbps. Most coffeeshops are 20x - 300x that speed. I hope they invest in getting better internet service.
Nixon’s is our favorite coffee shop in Denver bar none. The finesse they apply to the drinks and the bean choice is somehow much better than most other places. Staff is friendly and the restrooms are spotless. Love the vibe and the products.
5/5 stars, and here’s why:No purpose. Just here to report. This place… it all at once feels modern and yet… classic. Simultaneously. Wonderfully so. It was already channeling Great Gatsby vibes when, as I was typing this, “Young and Beautiful” by Lana Del Ray began playing. (A hauntingly beautiful tune in the Gatsby film’s soundtrack.) How opportune.The faux marble countertop—with its ancient-appearing piping feeding the more modern Kombucha taps—serves as a stark contrast against the dark edges of the smart phone resting in my hands. The brilliant emerald plants give life to the otherwise black, white, and natural-wood interior. Its large windows, filtering in the bright Colorado sunlight, transport me to a past life… a European life.Something about this place… it feels undoubtedly American but also reminiscent of my time across the Atlantic. Maybe it’s the chatter of students discussing their upcoming test tomorrow. My last life as a student was in Ireland, thus these conversations send me on a mental trip back to my time studying in Eyre Square or in one of the cafés off Galway’s famed Shop Street. Not that there was any sun there, but it’s the essence. The essence here, it… well, maybe some extraordinary parts of life are meant to be left unexamined and experienced only.~Ya know, when I don’t try too hard, and I allow my mind to wander away from the direct thought I’m attempting to work out, those realizations on the periphery come into focus. Sometimes by looking away, we’re strong more directly without knowing it. The end goal just wasn’t where we’d originally set our sights. We often aim for targets that we aimlessly misplace, don’t we?Anyway, I believe I now understand why this feels so European. While I was there, I made sure to take time to soak everything in. I wasn’t forcing myself to study, read, write, or any of it. I coerced myself into doing nothing (though always in public; that part was crucial.) I redirected my aim to a different target—or maybe toward the target I had never noticed was there—and I observed and felt and took in the world with each of my traditional senses and the others we possess. I opened myself up to the people and my environment, and therefore this life opened up to me. Rather than taking opportunities or giving the planet my mind’s creations, I was receiving anything offered in my vicinity. Fully and truly appreciating strangers, a blade of grass, the birdsong drifting through the air, the mechanized chaos of commercial coffee makers. All of it a piece of the whole, and the whole the utterly baffling beauty of this existence.~To watch the world go by is a superpower. And Nixon’s allows you to do exactly that.
Nixon's has some of the best baristas in Denver, and the atmosphere at the cafe is great for reading, working, meeting friends, or even playing some rummy!
Just call it Trump's Hero Coffee because it's a ripoff like they both were
