Emily's Cafe
1860 Lincoln St, Denver, CO
Crema's Take
“This student-run café in Denver pulls off the impressive feat of serving genuinely excellent espresso drinks—reviewers rave about americanos that taste clean and bright rather than burnt—while keeping prices refreshingly low and supporting culinary education. The vibe is relaxed and genuine, with a friendly crew of students who make you feel welcome whether you're settling in for a leisurely breakfast or just grabbing a perfectly pulled shot, and the bonus of knowing your coffee money is directly helping young people build real skills.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast and light food on the menu. Open late. Family friendly.

Emily's has delicious food at an incredibly reasonable cost, and coupled with the idea that you are helping young people grow their skills. The students are so friendly! I always feel good spending my money here, and the food does not disappoint.
Wonderful omelett and tasty potatoes. Very friendly staff.
Always delicious, always super friendly and professional
Best tasting americanos. The coffee doesn't taste burnt at all like other cafes. Plus the workers are awesome.
