The best cafe in Denver- funky, immaculate vibes. Amazing owners. And the best vegan / gluten dairy free options I’ve had the pleasure of experiencing. Don’t sleep on this spot- it’s a treasure.
Highly highly recommend Green Bus! Incredible coffee (the s’more’s latte is fire and the dalgona is addictive) and equally incredible vegan gluten free baked goods selection. The cinnamon donuts are problematically delicious. If left to my own devices, I could eat 10 of their cinnamon donuts on any given day and still want to come back for more. The owners are so wonderful and they make great recommendations. Can’t wait to spend so much money eating delicious food and drinking incredible coffee. (Drank the s’mores latte too quickly to take a photo but managed to capture the 7th or 8th donut)
Can’t say enough amazing things about Green Bus Cafe! One of the best coffee shops in Denver. As someone who is lactose intolerant but also cares about the ethical sourcing of ingredients, I was SO happy to see their brick and mortar open in the neighborhood. The passion, intention, and care that go into the drinks and delicious treats is unlike any other place I’ve been to. You have to try it, you won’t be disappointed!
Green Bus Cafe is always such a hit whenever we're at the City Park Farmers market that we knew we had to try and get them as one of our vendors for our April 2025 Vegan Wedding. Amazingly enough, they were available and we started working with them right away! We had the pleasure of corresponding with Dustin, who is excellent at communicating and making sure all questions were answered. We opted for their regular full menu (Cold Brew, Iced Maple, Dalgona, Golden Milk, Matcha, Chai, and tea) with some hot coffee in case the Colorado weather turned on us. Majority of our guests were from out of town, mostly East coasters, so we knew they would be tired and need a pick me up. Heck, I needed the pick me up! My husband and I were able to head out back at Skylights venue where Green Bus Cafe was set up with some cocktail tables for people to hang out around and grabbed ourselves a Dalgona each. It was exactly what we needed to help us power through the night (we're introverts lol) and gave us more of a chance to talk with our guests one on one. Everyone absolutely LOVED the drinks and no one cared it all happened to be Vegan. That was one of our goals for our wedding, showing our friends and family how delicious vegan drinks can be! Now we did request a special treat box from Sarah (from Starfish Bakery) just for my husband and I. We gave flavors that we vibed with and Holy Guacamole, what a lovely surprise! Sarah knocked it out of the park! I have some photos below but it really doesn't for it justice for how delicious it all was! I can't remember all the names so please forgive me if I get it wrong, but we had double chocolate marshmallow cookies, peanut butter blossoms, chocolate chip tahini cookies, and a whole box of peanut butter chocolate chip blondies. All vegan and all absolutely incredible!! I had to freeze some to try and make it last longer but alas, two and a half weeks later, they're all gone lol Lucky for us, Green Bus Cafe goes to City Park Farmers market so we can get our coffee and treat fix from Dustin and Sarah, and they recently opened up a brick and mortar location! We're not in Downtown that often since we live in Aurora but can't wait to see it in person! I'll make sure to add more photos once we get them back from our photographer but cannot stress enough, how grateful and happy we are that Green Bus Cafe made our dreams a reality. Thank you for helping keep us caffeinated and bring such a great atmosphere to our wedding! Wouldn't have had it any other way and can't recommend you guys enough. So again, thank you!!! Much love, The Weiseners.
Green Bus Cafe Starfish Bakery is my favorite spot in the neighborhood! Dustin and Sarah are the sweetest souls, so welcoming to anyone who walks through their door. Sarah’s vegan baked goods will blow your mind (I’m not even vegan, but I LOVE her treats - the muffins, donuts, and cream pies are my fave). I’m also very particular about my matcha and I love theirs (hot or iced!). Fab oat milk lattes too. And if you really want to treat yourself, the seasonal specials are delish. The good vibes at Green Bus are just what this neighborhood needs!
Green Bus Cafe is what you would want in a friendly neighborhood cafe. Dustin the owner is a great down to earth guy, always great to have a chat and see what’s new on the menu. The record player and throwback decor creates a very chill vibe. The coffee is fantastic, with everything from a simple cup of joe, to more intriguing dalgona, golden milk latte, chai etc. my favorite is the Chacca Maca Mushroom latte, which is like the best hot chocolate with Adaptogens and maca deliciousness !! If you’re feeling snacky, Starfish by Sarah has some amazing pastries in their display case - so many wonderful and delicious vegan options! This location also has a walk up ordering window so you can grab and go if you have your pet with you!
Drinks were very good, the staff was kind, and all the pastries were gluten free and vegan!
Very friendly and warm service from the baristas! Great atmosphere and will definitely be back. Excited to see the place when seating is available. The matcha with pistachio milk was amazing!
