Along Federal Boulevard within Denver city limits, there are only a couple of coffee shops, both Starbucks: That's a ten-mile stretch of urban surface street with no locally owned cafes. But our intrepid coffee hunter, Danielle Krolewicz, has been keeping an eye on Federal Coffee, which has been showing signs of life over the past year, and it's finally opening, on December 15, on the northwest corner of Federal and West 23rd Avenue.

While Federal Boulevard has a long way to go before reaching maximum caffeine saturation, Federal Coffee is a promising sign — as is nearby Sun Valley Kitchen & Community Center — that local business owners can make a go of it in less trendy neighborhoods.
