Crema's Take

Launch Espresso Food Spirits pulls off the rare trick of being simultaneously a serious coffee spot and a full-service cafe-bar-gallery hybrid, where you can order a well-pulled espresso, grab a creative breakfast sandwich, then stick around for cocktails and board games among local art for sale. The vibe leans quiet and artisan rather than Instagram-loud, attracting regulars who treat it like a second living room, though quality can be inconsistent—some dishes shine while others underwhelm. It's worth the visit if you want a spot that does multiple things genuinely well and doesn't take itself too seriously.

What to expect

Strong matcha and tea selection, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly. Parking available.

Lovely place. Great (and pretty) coffee. And my breakfast sandwich was delicious. You can sip and eat while playing board games. And some local shopping too. Highly recommended visiting after watching the sunrise at Red Rocks Amphitheater

Stopped by this little cafe for a smoothie bowl and latte and I wasn’t let down. The atmosphere is great and there’s plenty of options to choose from! The espresso was good and the smoothie bowl was delicious, but I didn’t care for the dried fruit on top, it got a little hard to…
