LoHi is a neighborhood known more for boutiques and local shops than chain restaurants. Whether it’s breakfast, coffee, or ice cream, there are plenty of hip, unique places in the area you can walk to for a quick snack or refreshment at any time of day.
Prosperoats
If you’re a breakfast lover, you’ll love Prosperoats. They’re a great breakfast eatery on 15th St. that specializes in–you guessed it–breakfast. All day long. But you won’t be served just any breakfast. They take juice, oats, and yogurt, and turn them into gourmet meals that you can enjoy until 4pm every day. All their produce is locally sourced, and they pride themselves on being healthy, natural, and sustainable. Check out their menu here.
Metropolis Coffee
Although there are hundreds of coffee shops in Denver, this coffee shop in the heart of LoHi is a local favorite. Not only can you stop in for a cup of gourmet coffee, but you can also go in for a coffee tasting and get a quick education on coffee beans and brewing styles. They serve coffee from Seattle and feature food items from local vendors. This is a great place to meet some of your new neighbors and get to know the neighborhood culture!
The House of Commons
If you’re looking for a taste of England, the House of Commons tea room is the place to go. The owner was born in London, so you can count on authentic English tea and scones every time you go. They also offer sandwiches, salads, and other pastries, all made fresh daily. You can enjoy tea at the House of Commons until 6pm every day.
Little Man Ice Cream
When you visit this ice cream parlor, you’ll have an unforgettable experience. Little Man Ice Cream takes you back to the 40s. They offer homemade ice cream, hand-crafted malts, and fresh waffle cones–all of which you can enjoy while sitting inside a huge ice cream can. And if you’re looking for vegan or dairy-free options, you can find them there too.
These are just a few of the local favorites you can visit in the neighborhood.
