Breakfast/Brunch in Denver
Showing 23 - 44 of 89Despite 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 […]
If you’re over Benedicts and scrambles, Onefold is ready to make eggs interesting again. The original Uptown location opened in 2015 and quickly gained a following for such dishes as bacon fried rice (or a Chinese sausage version) topped with a duck fat-fried egg, and congee (a savory rice porridge) with rich duck confit and […]
Since getting its start in Sunnyside in 2014, this brunch-only spot has expanded with outposts in Littleton and on South Broadway.

Not content to cater just to […]
Four Friends Kitchen, a family-friendly breakfast-and-lunch spot that opened in early 2015 in what is now Central Park (formerly Stapleton), isn’t a place to see and be seen. It isn’t around the corner from the art museum or Union Station or anyplace you’re going to spend the rest of your day, unless you’re headed to […]
When Snooze first hit the Ballpark neighborhood in 2007, it revolutionized breakfast in Denver.

Snooze nicely filled a niche that Denver hadn’t even recognized […]
