Support the independent voice of Denver and help keep the future of Westword free.
KJ's Coffee Bar, the spot at 1710 East 25th Avenue that's become a regular Whittier neighborhood hangout over the past ten months, will introduce later hours today -- until 9 p.m. on weekends and 10 p.m. on weekends.
And that's just the start of the changes, promises manager Kassia Koukari. KJ's just got its liquor license, and will be adding alcohol to the roster on July 10 -- a variety of local beers and seven types of wine (three red, three white and one sparkling) -- and also expanding its food offerings. Once all that's working, "we're looking to get more active with the community," she says, "and have spoken word nights, trivia nights, movie nights and maybe a local band play on weekends."
You grow, girl!
Keep Westword Free... Since we started Westword, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Denver, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Denver with no paywalls.
