Black Eye Cap Hill is one of my favorite shops in Denver and the USA. You take one part of just plain cool add inviting and then a seriousness about coffee, and you have the Black Eye Cap Hill. It is unique.
The furnishings, character, and atmosphere were enough to make me glad I was there. It has a dreamlike air about it. I could imagine it used as a movie set or backdrop. It just felt cool to pull up to a table, take out my laptop, and write. It has the feel of a world-class coffee shop that changes into a gorgeous bar at night.
A strange twist about the coffee house is the bathrooms have audio books playing in them. In a weird kind of way, that’s rather cool.
The coffee was great. If your hungry or just need a snack The Black Eye offers a delight menu that is moderately priced.
The next time I’m in Denver, I’ll be back. The coffee was great, the service above average, and the atmosphere world-class.
