Amante is a great place to get a handcrafted coffee beverage. They also have a selection of food that includes some premade burritos that are very good. I had a Cortado and it was great!

Best coffee in town, hand down...we went to multiple places and this was the only one that made us want to come back...Fantastic service, awesome coffee and prices are cheaper than what you will find in Starbucks...If you want a superb morning coffee, visit them...you will not regret it...

I ordered a vanilla latte with coconut milk and it was so disappointing. I’m not sure if they use less shots of espresso than I’m used to, but it was very boring. I felt like I was only drinking coconut milk. It’s not bad, I just think there’s way better in Denver.

We were looking for a place to test a bit and plan the day. The bonus was the excellent coffee with a view of union station.

Best latte I’ve ever had wow. Just a plain one with almond milk. It’s so smooth tasting. I wish they would open another in cap hill

Got a fantastic cafe au lait. The barista was very nice and had the great recommendation of pairing a light roast with oat milk for my drink.

Googled coffee shops near my hotel and saw Amante decided to give it a shot. Cute little coffee on 17th st downtown. Friendly staff, I ordered Americano, it was selection A roast, which is a light roast. Too light not too strong for my taste, but overall taste good.

Im not from Denver. I also hate coffee. But this place is on a completely different level, I took a 20 minute detour from my AirB&B every morning when I was in town to get the cold brew here. Whenever someone mentions Dever, the first thing that comes into my head is this place. I know that sounds hyperbolic but oh my god seriously, the coffee here is incredible

Rather busy but well staffed coffee and liquor bar. Crafted an amaro based cocktail with the assistance of the bartender that might be my new favorite breakfast drink.

I dont like the passive aggressive tip suggestions 20% thanks, 25% awesome, ...Especially in a place with NO service.I had to go grab my coffee myself and I had to bring back my dirty dishes so the appropriate tip is $0 and suggestions should be 5% thanks, 10% awesome and 20% you are a living legend.Yet I feel bad for leaving just 20%. And I dont like to feel bad. And you did it on purpose.Food wise:The drip coffee is average, burrito was good.

This coffee shop hits the spot!Great location with large windows, and some bar and high top seating. They have a full bar inside for some great espresso cocktails, and more! Plus, there is always a daily happy hour special.

Great coffee and pleasant, friendly staff! They have both iced and hot coffee drinks including lattes, french press, drip, and cold brew. Good selection of pastries and panini sandwiches along with three different types of chai tea that go from mild&sweet to bhakti spicy. There are two tvs and usually one has old movies playing on it from the 40s-60s while the other tv is usually set on sports.The bar selection is also nice and they have awesome happy hour with discounted coffee cocktails. Plus they display local art and photography on their walls. This is one of the best coffee shops in Denver (their espresso blend is imported from Italy!). They are right outside Union Station. If you are looking for great coffee and a cool place to sit and people watch, check out Amante. They are beyond amazing!

Stopped there for 15 minutes prior to business meeting next door. Ordered custom drink similar to hot Vanilla Latte. Person assisting me was helpful. I can honestly say that drink was the best Ive ever had anywhere. I plan to contact them to find out what they did that made it taste so creamy and smooth.

Really authentic Italian coffee experience. Love all the diffeeent coffee options (drop, filter, espresso, press etc). The price is soooo right (read cheap!) and it’s a really nice environ to hang out in for a few hours. Haven’t tried any food, but it honestly looks good so next time for sure!

A great Italian themed coffee shop near union station. I first off enjoyed the fact that it was open past 6pm on a weekday which was rare in the area.The coffee was good. The selection of coffee drinks and alcoholic beverages was awesome.The environment was pleasant and warm.

This is the place to be for a shot of espresso or a cappuccino. Friendly staff, great coffee, and a relaxed vibe. Good spot to grab a cocktail or happy hour drink if you have had enough caffeine for the day.

Review №38

Good coffee in the Denver city centre. Their flat-white is made from a coffee blend from mostly Latin American origins to keep itsflavour consistent.I would definitely recommend the place to friends visiting Denver, but for the baristas and fellow coffee snobs, a place with their own roasters and more expertise may be more to their liking.

Ive been going here for years and in my opinion it is the best coffee in Denver! I love the perfectly roasted italian style coffee and the friendly baristas! Sometimes I am in here twice a day because everyone is so nice! Dont skip on the wine and cocktail specials either!

Cute! Really like the ambience.I enjoyed the Mocha I ordered, although the chocolate chip cookie was really dry, hard to chew, and didn’t have a great after-taste.

This place is usually not too busy, which means its not too loud and there is ample seating. Its in a lovely historic building in a historic district less than a block from Union Station. Definitely worth checking out.

Two friends and I headed over since all the bars were full. The atmosphere was relaxed and the two workers were super friendly. Overall great experience. Try the peppermint pattie if they have it! I will definitely be coming back if I come back to Denver.

Me and my wife really like this place, it reminds us of a coffee place we visited last year in Italy. Friendly staff, clean store, good coffee, but not the best. A good place to kick back and watch things go by, and is a fast easy walk from Union Station.

The coffee was ok but the almond croissant I had ordered was given to me stone-cold. The server was talking properly to customers but started saying bad stuff about them after they had left (in front of me). I also felt that he was being a little racist judging by the way he was talking to me.

Do yourself a favor and order a Shotino. Not on any menu you will see, but delicious (and alcoholic). Also, one of the few places in Denver that can properly froth almond milk for an almond milk cappuccino 👌.

Great variety- If you describe what you want they can make you a custom drink. They also have alcohol & expresso cocktails that are amazing! Try their breads too, theyre from a local bakery and so good. The managers Chris & Allen are the best, great staff & great drinks

Great little coffee shop near Union station. Lots of coffee and tea options and a bunch of alcoholic options too. My chai was great and the mocha was just right (not too sweet). Def would come back.

Review №61

Self absorbed staff interested in their own banter vs. listening to customers. Keep your personal issues to yourselves, dont ask me to repeat myself 3x because you are not attentive. Coffee quality varies from excellent to poor depending upon the barista. I expect a new tenet in this space soon.

Review №64

Friendly baristas who make my perfect drink every time. The baristas knew my name (and favorite drink!) before I could remember all of their names! This place began to feel like a second home before and after work shifts. I have probably purchased over 80 drinks from this place over the course of 2017 and every penny was well spent on this place.

Review №65

I really enjoy this coffee shop! I’ve been here in the AM on my way to work in and in the afternoon and the service has always been pleasant. Their cappuccinos are great and they ask if you would like piece of biscotti, free by the way. Their drip coffee is good too, I believe a large is $2.75, 16 oz. During the World Cup they will be playing games on the TV which is good reason to stop in and do as the Italians do; chill, drink espresso and watch soccer.There americanos and lattes are superb.

Review №89

Overrated and disappointing. Decor is awkward attempt at being slick - lot of fake marble, but clashing with tacky chairs, walls with leftover tape from something and badly hung photos, mold above the air vent. Plus the ultimate sin: TVs! About 10 tables and a couple of bars, all with high chairs (though decently comfortable ones). A couple of outlets. Free wi-fi with no password from the Oxford (an apartment building?) lobby that this opens in on. Pop on the audio, a bit loud. Small selection of good loose leaf teas. Several chais, all from mix. I tried Sherpa, which (like all) was too sweet but decently spiced. Small, unexciting selection of pastries. Friendly staff.

Passable coffee and chai latte, housed in a unique space. Price is a bit on the high side and unwarranted as you can easily walk down 5 minutes down the street and get a much better caffeinated drink from Pigtrain.
