Crema's Take

This vegan Caribbean spot in Denver has carved out something genuinely special with its creative island-inspired cuisine and thoughtfully crafted drinks that go beyond standard coffee shop fare. The open, welcoming atmosphere draws in everyone from record-shopping neighbors to folks seeking sustainable dining, and the team's genuine warmth keeps people coming back for dishes like their lauded doubles and mofongo that taste as adventurous as they look. Whether you're settling in for a slow morning or catching up over lunch, White Elephant feels like the kind of place where care goes into every detail, from the all-vegan menu to the service.

What to expect

Specialty coffee, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast and light food on the menu. Open late.

Delicious food and drinks! We loved everything we ate and drank. The doubles were definitely the highlight- we want to eat those every day! The service was great and it’s such a cool open atmosphere. Definitely will be back! Their happy hour is also such a great deal!
