Reader: Breakfast Is Great, Lines for It Not So Much

Where do you go for breakfast? Not Le Peep by City Park; that location closed several months ago, and will soon be replaced by another Syrup, which inspired this comment from Angelo: The hipsters are taking over. Replies Amy: Um, no. There aren't hipsters running this restaurant. Hard-working Midwesterners, yes...

The hipsters are taking over.

Replies Amy:

Um, no. There aren't hipsters running this restaurant. Hard-working Midwesterners, yes.

Where do you eat breakfast? At home, at one of Denver's one-word restaurant spots, or at an old-school diner or dive?
