If you’re looking for a coffee shop to sit at (that isn’t your normal Starbucks) and do work, this is the spot!! The employees are super welcoming, very helpful, and great conversation starters. I could definitely tell they love to get to know their costumers, which I find very professional and kind. Not to mention the vibes here are super cozy and warm, WiFi is fast, drinks are AMAZING, food is outside the box of basic coffee shop treats (looks very scrumptious😋), and decoration is beautiful! This will forever be my #1 coffe joint😌

This place was very delicious!! I went here every day while I was in Denver and would get the earl grey tea lemonade with lavender syrup, and it’s such an amazing and delicious drink! The lavender syrup is super flavorful and addictive. I love how customizable the drinks are and that this place offers a large tea and syrup selection! The staff was also very friendly :) I’ll definitely come back if I’m in Denver again!

Much better than your average Starbucks!Big fan of this coffee shop. It is very clean and a very calm vibe. There is ample indoor and outdoor seating. Their vast selection of drinks are great and even include mediative teas. They have fantastic tasty chorizo empanadas. I find their food more appetizing than most other coffee establishmentsHighly recommend and will come back again for a date or need a moment to relax

First time I tried Macha tea. They say you love it ir hate it. Well I loved it. Loved the suggestions they gave. The mango tango was refreshing. The variety is amazing and the freshness of the leaves are great quality. The outside patio is great for reading a book or playing chess with a friend. Definitely coming back.

I go out of my way just for their delicious Toasted coconut oolong tea! The empanadas are some of the best I’ve ever had.

Kochi is a great atmosphere and nice outdoor seating. Their decaf espresso was good (not great). It was pretty bitter, borderline burnt. It was still a good cup, but tasted a little off. Theyre conveniently located so Ill be back again.

Staff was friendly and helpful. Clean and comfortable atmosphere.

Love it. Everything about it makes it a great place to re up on coffee or tea. Delicious cold or hot. And staff are hella cool and friendly

The breakfast we had was really good and very tasty. The cappuccino was even better. This is the best coffee shop in our area. The barista is very good at making different toppings. We were not expecting that we could enjoy the day having the coffee together for it was really good! It was a great experience ever! I will recommend place.

Kochi is my favourite thing about living in the Bellevue neighbourhood! Im here for six months, working from home, and Kochi is my 2nd workspace. I love their coffee drinks, but the best thing is the broad-range assortment of loose-leaf teas! Theres always something new to discover. On top of that, the staff is very friendly and laid back - Kochi is a marvelous coffee / tea shop. Check it out, Im sure itll be a lovely time!

August - Went in last weekend for a pickup and noticed something. As soon as I walked in, the lady behind the countertop was busy with stuff and had her back turned. Eventually, she turned around and acknowledged me, saying she was finishing up. I recall waiting maybe a solid minute in silence to actually be serviced. After she was done and knew that I was just there for a quick pickup, she pointed at the bag of food and told me I just grab it and go. I did and left.Heres the thing. Ive worked in the food industry, so I know well enough how some employees can be towards customers or just during a bad day (it seemed slow, btw). She gave the impression of either having a bad day, taking issue with my lack of a haircut, or just making it clear she didnt want to serve an Afro-American. Keep in mind that she (probably) couldve easily asked if I was there for the pickup while she did whatever she was doing.That all being said, the food was deliciously great and surprisingly filling. Id really like to go back, but the potential racial matters a gamble, especially if they know its me when I place the order. :|

We found this place by accident, but really like it. Great tea, great pastries and great service.

Great outdoor patio and great drinks. Plenty of good food items as well including empanadas.

Good coffee, friendly service, nice atmosphere, and delicious bakery items. Highly recommend.

Ive been going here since they were still Steep. This is hands down the best place in Denver to get your tea fix. I go here almost weekly, all of the baristas remember me and are so sweet and polite. The drinks never disappoint, seriously try the toasted coconut oolong latte. As well, they make almost all of their pastries, and theyre all delicious. I cant rave enough about how much I love this place.

Great coffee, friendly staff, calm atmosphere. Worth a visit.

I absolutely love coming here, each time the baristas are so friendly and helpful and the drinks are consistently delicious. Thank you for being you!

The pistachio croissant made me have an awakening. i wasnt living before i came here and tried it. baristas were so kind and helpful. a great spot to cry while studying, a judgement free environment. thanks besties.

Boulder Blues Tea was very good! It was steeped perfectly without getting bitter. This was my first time here and I will definitely return. I would highly recommend coming here. I didnt get any food this time but it looks great!I just moved here from Seattle where I had a great local tea house. So glad to have finally found a good tea shop in Denver!

First time here. Great chai and friendly smiles, under the mask!

This has become my favorite little place. They have such unique drinks that are so good! The staff is always super friendly too.

Not the best cold brew I have had. It was very bitter and made me think it wasnt cold brew but just a hot coffee on ice... I should have the cream if that is the normal tasting cold brew.

Great coffee and pastries. Ive loved everything Ive ever tried here!

I love this little shop! It feels very inviting and comfortable, and they have a beautiful patio to enjoy when the weather is warm. Everyone who works here is friendly and helpful. They make a great matcha latte, and they also have some great pastries.

Atmosphere, outlets, and fantastic staff. The offerings are pricey, but it’s one of the best study spots in town

I had the golden Chai tea, iced... it was FABULOUS! Great service too

Okay place to go to. Got some muffins but they tasted old. Cute atmosphere.

Nice Tea, & Coffee spot with baked goods, a variety of beverages and nice Artwork on the walls. Located near Colorado Blvd. and 8th. Ave., they have a small parking lot which comes in handy because this area gets busy and congested.

Fair prices, great taste, great atmosphere, friendly staff. Good choice!

Friendly, quick service and delicious quiche!

Delish food and coffee. Cool spot to hang or work inside or out.

Amazing chai tea latte. They also have mini samples of their tea they sell, which also is amazing since hat way you don’t have to waste money in case you end up not liking it. Staff was nice. LOVE the music, get your Shazam ready. The only part I don’t like is the parking but that’s not their fault.10 out of 10 go.

Great food and great coffee. Great atmosphere. And the staff is always so kind. It’s also quiet. I’ll recommend this place to anyone who asks :)

Horrible! first the website said they have boba. they didn’t. then i tasted the tea & it tasted so bad 🤢

Always good to try something different. This is a great atmosphere, wonderful people and I enjoyed my tea. You should try it.

Wonderful pastries and it smells great with the lavender tea.

With a few other coffee / tea options nearby this always ends up being my go-to. The staff are always kind, knowledgeable and quick. There are many options depending on the mood i’m in - power bowl, smoothie, tea or latte.

The baristas and atmosphere of the place is really great, however there seems to be a disconnect between the baristas and the online ordering system. They said that theyre not notified when orders are placed, meaning you have to call in to check to make sure they got it. Making the pickup time useless. On top of that, they said they dont have a way to notify customers when an order is available for pickup.Hopefully management can resolve these hurdles for them.

Great place! Comfortable, quality tea and coffee, and friendly staff.

Awesome coffee, incredible tea selection, and fantastic service! The staff here are so warm and welcoming, they really make you feel like it’s a true neighborhood spot and that they’re really grateful for your business. I highly recommend!

Truly a gift of a place. Excellent coffee, even better tea and the staff makes each moment I visit feel great!

My husband & I came for coffee based on my son’s & his GF’s recommendation. Definitely didn’t disappoint! I ordered the macchiato with sugar free vanilla syrup & oat milk while my husband had the cappuccino with vanilla syrup.Whatever beans used was so balanced and hardly any acidity. I’m sure there’s more to the drinks than the beans and (sugar free) syrup but those two ingredients made my cup of joe amazing! Pls share the secret.

This place does great drinks definitely recommended

Local favorite! Tiny place packed with everything you want in a cafe. They have a large variety of teas and coffees including gluten free/paleo/vegan pastries and breads. Behind the counter they are always more than polite and helpful. This place is as good as all those artisan coffee shops without the price gauging.

Awesome coffee shop! Great environment, food, and beverages. Definitely coming back!

We are daily coffee shop people, and this place was the best coffee we have ever had! The food was great for lunch, breakfast a bit limited but the staff was super friendly, also they know how to make the avocado shake, and the oven-roasted tomato was a divine! Well done everyone, See you again!

Stumbled on this place and I’m so glad I did. Super friendly staff, INCREDIBLE baked goods (I ended up buying croissants and three different quiches to have on hand, beautiful aesthetic and environment. I can’t wait to go back...

Best mate latte

When you walk in; Clean, organized, friendly, Fresh

Great Food and Coffee. Staff is super friendly. Will visit again.

Wonderful classic Chai Latte and a very nice atmosphere!

Very welcoming, cozy spot for delicious coffee and tea! Pleasantly surprised by the selection and quality of both the tea and espresso drinks - at most places it’s one or the other but they were perfectly made with a nice dense foam.

Great place for tea and business.

I always appreciate when I can get both a pastry and a smoothie.

Delicious beverages and baked goods!

Tasty coffees and teas and great service!

My all time favorite tea spot. Especially love the quiche and either of the oolong coconut drinks. Floral, not too sweet, and Im now addicted.

Original review below, but wanted to post an update to thank the ownership at Kochi for their kind and thoughtful response, below. Speaks volumes about the business and is more than almost other every coffee shop Ive seen. Thank you Kochi, and while we would still like to see the vegan upcharge eliminated (I have seen others do it), we will support your business based on your extraordinary level of customer service.________________________________________________Friendly staff but super disappointing that they upcharge for every single plant-based milk option. It penalizes customers who are trying to do right by their health, the planet, and cows, who are forcibly impregnated then have their calves permanently taken from them often within a few hours so humans can drink the milk meant for their calves. Would love to see the plant-based upcharge eliminated.

LOVED the spicy chai!!

Our favorite spot in Denver! The ambience is great, the people diverse and the food/drink amazing! If you’re looking for a low-key yet high-quality place to relax, work or just about anything else this is it!

The tea selection here is incredible. They have a few tasty vegan pastry options (plenty of non-vegan too), tea and coffee lattes as well as dairy free milk alternatives such as almond milk. Highly recommend!

Always a warm and genuine welcome when I stop in. Beautiful, inviting and comfy decor (and love the outside seating as well with the nice shade!) and, of course love the coffee I order there. I’ll keep coming back again and again!

I love this place. So many teas or choose from and the baristas are always so sweet

Incredible Service! I was welcomed so warmly, listened to, and really enjoyed my subtly sweet latte. Quiet oasis in the middle of the city (: (: (:

Love Kochi Cafe! Amazing atmosphere, friendly staff, and delicious drinks. Love the outdoor, shaded patio. Highly recommend Kochi!

I absolutely love this place! Excellent and friendly staff and a terrific and fun vibe. Love their London Fog!

They never offer a receipt! -_- some people are often condescending, short or otherwise rude. I met the owner once. He seemed to really love what he does and has great customer service. Its unfortunate they cant get consistently decent customer service focused employees. Ive met two other workers that absolutely shine, over the years, but I believe neither works there anymore. Other than that, great products! I love what theyre doing with the space and the name change. Im rooting for the owners success.

Nice coffee shop with a small patio. It was very clean along with the restroom. I got the oolong toasted coconut and it was amazing. The barista asked if I preferred my drinks on the sweeter side or not which I thought was awesome of her because it was just the right amount of sweetness. I would recommend and will be returning again.

This is a great place to get regular favorites like Chai and cafe lattes, but also have the option to get creative varieties such as matcha green tea or iced black tea sweetened with agave. I enjoy the black teas and the oolong the most.There are also pastries and baked goods to get along with your drink, and if you like a particular tea blend they are available to buy in loose leaf form for home brewing. The cafe itself is a nice hangout with tables and electrical outlets for laptop users.

The place was some what crowed but my cappuccino was rather latte:( Came in that mug and had a latte taste and look. However, if you are a tea lover they got a wide variety!

Brilliant & cozy !!! Love this place

Absolutely loved my experience here! Lexi was a great help and reccomend me a wonderful tea! Keep up the good work guys!

Super friendly staff! Love the environment and great lattes and empanadas 💙💙💙💙

Fantastic local spot. A true mom and pop business which I love to support. The staff are all extremely friendly, the vibe is just right, and their oatmilk latte is amongst the best in Denver (and I frequent the vast majority of coffee shops in the city!). My kids adore their muffins and pastries as well!

I love the relaxed atmosphere. It’s a perfect place to grave a latte, sit outside and get some work done.

This place is cool! The staff were friendly and helpful. They helped me with the flavors of their tea, and the tea was brewed how it should be (not overstepped or burnt flavor). They have coffee but a little hard to locate if youre not paying attention. Parking is challenging/unsure if they have dedicated parking or if its all the apartments parking.

What a nice neighborhood gem! Great for light breakfast. There are a lot of different tea blends to buy. The decor is calm and the service is top-notch. Would highly recommend visiting.

We really love this place but the prices make it difficult to come here more than once a month or so. If there was annnnything a little cheaper here, we’d love to come every day! But most items are between $3-4, which isn’t in our budget. The coffee was yummy though!

Love everything here, especially the coconut oolong.

Very friendly staff and nice patio space. Love the red rocks latte!

Nice outdoor and indoor seating with Wi-Fi. Temperature on my chai was way too hot (think hot tea) but good once it cooled down. Masks are enforced inside which is great.

Great baristas, excellent latte selection; would highly recommend for a stellar morning

Love the Kochi Koolers, empanadas and quiche! Baristas are warm, friendly and so professional! I especially love the outdoor garden and the new inside remodel they just finished. So warm and relaxing,

Super happy with my Red Rocks Latte. Delicious! Lots of outlets and a decent amount of places to sit to get some work done. Loved the cute atmosphere and will be coming back to try more things.

The staff members know why.

First time here & all I had heard about this spot was the rainbow latte... which I wasnt keen on trying. I got the lavender jasmine tea latte... and it is GOOD. Pleasantly surprised! Creative lattes are fun options to mix it up!

Its SO GOOD! If you think you dont like tea you should come to see what good tea is. If you like tea and havent been, go, now! Snacks are always tasty, too!

This place is fine just fine,good spot to stop in, has a decent selection of teas. Coffee is passable, breakfast and snack items are good. Pleasant and all around fine place.

Love the tea! Grate service and a cozy place to work and study!.

I am seriously in love with this place!! I go there at least two to three times a week and have never been disappointed! The staff is friendly, welcoming, and really know what they are talking about. I had Ben go above and beyond one day and help me find some good tea to kick my bad cold. And it worked by the way. The chick crew on Saturday morning had me laughing and got me pumped for a good day! I even trust there recommendations for new drinks And usually Im not one to try new things. All the teas and coffees are amazing and always on point! I highly recommend this place to anybody and everybody that ones a good drink and a good experience! LOVE THIS PLACE!

So many middle aged women with laptops hogging the space, I was hardly able to sit down. Apparently this neighborhood is confused about what a tea house should be. The space is nice and tea was good. Please consider doing your work at home so the rest of the tea fanatics can enjoy a cup in peace.

Steep is a nice coffee shop but it specializes more in tea. You can find a great variety of amazing drinks here. I like coming here for a couple of hours and work. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Highly recommend!

Things have gotten better recently. New ownership looks good and feels good . A few months ago, the atmosphere was dark and angry and now the place feels clean and fresh. Ive been going to steep since they opened and Im glad that I finally feel like I can go back.

Parking is confusing. Its a small place with not a lot of places to sit. Really cute, good hot drinks and a small selection of pastries. If you love tea, pretty hug selection of loose leaf teas and you can buy some to take home with you if you love your drink.

I had the golden chai tea and it was delicious!!

Great service and drinks!

Good service, good place to work, comfortable seating.The place has a sort of corporate feel; it looks like theyve probably got plans to expand. The coffee was not great, if youre looking for traditional. If you like syrups and lattes and more adventurous stuff like that, you may be more excited about it.Food did not look very good.

Very friendly staff and the patio’s earthy vibe allows me to stay for hours! All coffee shops need a patio like this.

Fudging amazing. Really unique lattes and teas that you cant find everywhere. They also have coffee and espresso drinks but Im telling you there tea lattes are amazing even for die-hard coffee addicts like me.

I really enjoyed this place. The coffee was good and they had a large selection of tea which I didnt try but smelled great. They had basic Google items youd expect in a coffee house. It was quiet at the time but since Ive only visited once I can give it a 5
