Being a coffee fanatic, I try to stay aware of any new coffee shops popping up in Denver. I was recently made aware of  Black Rock Coffee Bar opening a new location in DTC and had to give it a shot.

My first impression of the space was that it is aesthetically pleasing, has great natural light, and holds lots of seating (for when it is safe to open). The Black Rock brand is noticeable and there is a multitude of drinks to choose from. I find it convenient that you can walk inside or use their drive-thru. I was surprised that they have a drive-thru because it looks so nice from the inside! I appreciate both aspects.

I ordered a simple iced latte and my boyfriend tried one of their “premium” drinks, an iced caramel blondie. Both were delicious, but I liked the sweet drink better! Other drinks that caught my eye on the menu include classic espresso drinks, blended “chillers,” smoothies, chai tea, hot chocolate, iced tea, and even a couple energy beverages. As for food, they had a few items in the pastry case, but not much else. I recommend dining elsewhere before grabbing a drink here! The prices of the drinks were reasonable in comparison to a lot of other local coffee shops where one drink can cost you $6. At Black Rock, you can get a drink for under $5.

After browsing their website, I found out that Black Rock Coffee is a chain and they have many locations across the Western part of the U.S. I am excited to have them in Denver! They do have a rewards program, which fuels my desire to go back and try another one of their specialty drinks!
