ESP Hifi
1029 Santa Fe Dr, Denver, CO
Crema's Take
“ESP Hifi is a Japanese listening bar masquerading as a coffee shop, where vinyl records spin on an immaculate sound system and the city noise melts away the moment you walk through the door. They excel at both carefully crafted signature drinks like the "Chasing Clouds" cocktail and thoughtful non-alcoholic options, paired with light bites like burrata that feel intentional rather than afterthought. It's a genuinely intimate refuge on Santa Fe Drive that rewards those seeking refuge and ritual over convenience—perfect for lingering alone with a drink or sharing the experience with someone who'll appreciate its particular magic.”
What to expect
Specialty coffee, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Light food on the menu. Open late.

If you’re visiting or a local, you MUST visit this place. Vibes, food, and drinks are unbelievable. As a non drinker, there were plenty of options and we tried everything except the nonalcoholic beer. LOVE LOVE LOVE !!!!
