A staple in Eastern Europe, the kolache stuffs a doughy, slightly sweet, freshly baked bun with everything from eggs and bacon to ham and cheese to chocolate cream cheese. The Kolache Factory, part of a Houston-based chain, offers a couple dozen varieties to choose from — and they’re all cheap. But get there early if […]
Despite the small size of its original location, La Fillette always made an impressive number of menu items in-house, from bread and croissants to duck confit and sausages. After a move to larger digs in early 2023, the bakery has continued to serve its celebrated baked goods and build-your-own breakfast sandwiches, as well as an […]

Walking into Les Delices de Paris is like walking into another world: one of pure sensation, of cream and sugar, fine flour, yeast and butter and salt. The little pastry shop occupies what could be the most inconvenient location on Leetsdale, but on its best days, this is the best-smelling spot in the entire city […]
Little Finch is the next iteration of chef-owner Mary Nguyen’s Olive & Finch (which has locations in Uptown and Cherry Creek). But this new addition is not simply a scaled-down version of Olive & Finch. In many ways, it’s actually a bigger concept, reaching beyond the bounds of a typical coffee shop, bar or eatery […]
Founded in 2005, Maggie & Molly’s operated as an online business until it finally opened a bricks-and-mortar store on Sixth Avenue in May 2010. But whether you order the goods online for delivery or pick them up in person, every item is made from scratch. The offerings include cakes, pies, pastries, breakfast items, cookies and […]
What started as a cottage-industry bakery working out of a tiny Lakewood storefront in 2011 has evolved into an empanada mini-empire, thanks to the recipes and dedication of founder Lorena Cantarovici. In 2014, the chef moved her Argentinian cafe to a corner on South Broadway, expanding her offerings and adding a liquor license to serve […]

The Mi Pueblo Market in Thornton might be the best grocery store in the entire world. On any given day, the clean and brightly decorated market is warmly bumping a reggaeton Rihanna remix as shoppers peruse cascading bins of fresh avocados, bananas and tomatillos. Horchata sells by the jug, queso comes in just one variety […]
The venerable Moe’s is everything you’d expect from a bagel shop born and bred in Boulder: The menu is drawn (somewhat haphazardly) on a chalkboard, the staff is always in a good mood, and the place maintains a collegial, slightly hippie-dippie vibe. But the bagels – pulled out of the oven fresh each morning and […]
This little Louisville bakery inside an old Victorian house serves up rustic bread that ferments naturally (with no yeast added) over several days in the French pain au levain style before being baked to a hearty, crusty finish. Stop in early for an expertly made espresso drink and avocado toast or head over for a […]
While now-shuttered neighbor New Saigon offered a phonebook-sized menu with every possible combo of protein, noodle, rice and sauce, its spinoff, New Saigon Bakery, draws regulars with super-sized banh mi on house-baked French baguettes. Salty-sweet barbecued pork, luscious pâté and generous stacks of deli meats make for stellar sandwiches. Beyond banh mi, there are also […]
Denver’s bagel game has gotten far more diverse in 2024, and in October, Odell’s Bagel opened in the Highland neighborhood. The bagels themselves come in options such as furikake and rosemary, along with the standards: plain, sesame, everything, poppy and cinnamon raisin. But the real stars at Odell’s are the fishy toppings, particularly the pastrami-spiced […]

Olive & Finch is so much more than a sandwich shop, but chef/owner Mary Nguyen builds such amazing meat-and-bread constructions that most sandwich-only spots pale in comparison. Many of the choices are named after Nguyen’s friends and family, so choose from the Luca, an Italian stack; the Bennett, a veggie mix with sweet basil pesto; […]
Mary Nguyen has operated several compelling eateries over the past decade, but Olive & Finch was at once approachable and revolutionary when it opened in Uptown in 2013. Using the fast-casual model to build a restaurant with fine-dining aspirations and a quick-service price point, the chef turned out hearty breakfasts, delectable pastries, drool-worthy lunchtime sandwiches […]
For several years now, this bright-yellow doughnut shop in Arvada has churned out quality pastries thanks to Peter, “just Peter,” the baker, manager and one-man band who owns OMG Donuts with his Texas-dwelling wife. The specialty is a large, yeast-risen model that looks like a pine cone and pulls apart in neat little chunks of […]
