Support the independent voice of Denver and help keep the future of Westword free.
"Rise & Shine was started by Seth Rubin after he decided working for others was a bad idea. He combined his love of great coffee and good, old-fashioned, Southern-style biscuits to create the concept of a biscuit kitchen and cafe."
According to its Facebook page, that's the back-story behind Rise & Shine Biscuit Kitchen and Cafe, which opened earlier this month at 330 Holly Street, in the same space that occupies Basil Doc's Pizza. The small chalkboard menu hustles plain biscuits (all of which are baked in house), breakfast biscuits and biscuit sandwiches, alongside jolts of java. Hours are Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 2 p.m., and Saturday and Sunday, 8 a.m. to 2 p.m.
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.
