Cozy stop right in Union Station with coffee, pastries, and a range of mixed caffeinated beverages. Outdoor and indoor seating with good spacing and shade. A great stop to refuel when walking downtown or catching a train!

A very fun stop if you are in the LoDo area of Denver! We were going to have brunch at a restaurant in Union Station and loved that there was a coffee shop nearby while we waited. I ordered the Blender Caramel Cold Brew and my friend had the Vietnamese Coffee. Both were wonderful! Staff was friendly and it was fun to take a walk through Union Station. I will return next time I’m in Denver!

Quick central coffee stop, when you are on the way to a train, a tour, or just need a quick caffeine boost to finish your day.☕ Coffee was really good, not my favorite, but worked well on short notice.Reason this is a 4 and not a 5: The food was average; good, but not great. It was more about such a quaint union station spot.

This is one of my favorite places to get coffee and is located in one of the best Union stations in america. The whole area is great to hang and drink coffee.

Line moved fast on a busy Friday morning. The latte was very good, almond croissant and drip coffee were just ok. Nice outdoor seating area.

I love pig train. I often stop in and grab cold brew, a keto box, and occasionally a kombucha. All very good. I keep coming back because the staff is awesome and I enjoy hanging out in Union Station and people watching for a bit in between meetings...

Really cute location, but the coffee is bitter even on light roast. Get anything but coffee, and it’s great.

This place is great! Everything is delicious. Just tried the caramel blended cold brew and it was so tasty. I got it with less ice but I bet it’s good as is.

Always a great place to get caffeinated in Downtown Denver. Nitro Cold Brew this time, hits the spot. Strong and smooth, excellent service as well. Follow My Instagram: @keeptheeats

I go to this coffee shop every morning to buy a cup of coffee. I enjoy their coffee since its freshly brewed, plus they have freshly baked pie every morning, which I adore. This house is so warm and inviting. It was quite soothing and peaceful. The barista did a fantastic job creating wonderful coffee.

Worst iced vanilla latte I have ever had. It was watered down, didnt have any coffee or vanilla flavoring. Ive been here twice and the drink quality were bad both times. There are better coffee shops less than 5 min walk away like Kaffe Landskap

Delicious coffee, unique environment, pleasant experience!The good: Surrounded by the bustle of Union Station, Pigtrain Coffee Company is a welcome segue to the outside world. I ordered a latte and a brownie and took a look around. They have shelves with fun little souveniers from their shop and union station. I loved the open atmosphere. One unique touch which I loved, was that they have creamers on tap!The latte was delicious, as was the brownie. I relished the experience as I walked straight outside and got on with my day.The bad: The indoor seating is limited. If you want a lot of peace and quiet this may not be the best place for you as quite a lot of foot traffic can pass through the coffee shop.Summary: I highly recommend giving this coffee shop a try - I think youll quite enjoy it!

Great Latte! This was a nice little surprise while exploring LODO in Denver. While the location within Union Station isnt a very relaxing locale, the ample and comfortable seating in the main area right outside was great for sitting and people watching. The drinks were carefully made, and the brownie purchased to enjoy with it was decadent!

Dont order the nitro cold brew. Theyll serve you a regular iced coffee and then gaslight you when you try to return it. On the plus side, the iced coffee that they tried to tell me was nitro tasted ok.

Review №26

We came to Pigtrain off the train on a 12-hour layover in Denver on our way back from SLC, as my wife wanted some coffee to recover from the red-eye flight in.According to her, the coffee was delicious, perhaps the most flavorful coffee that she has had in a long time. Hints of honey and hazelnut (local) compliment the fresh coffee beans, and the presentation was quite attractive as well.The public area where we consumed the beverage was less pleasant, unfortunately. As soon as we sat to enjoy the beverage, we were approached by a security guard who (politely I will note) informed me that I needed to remove my feet from the table and that my wife was not allowed to lay down (my wife had positioned herself horizontally along the couch to face me...) Not a big deal, but if I am paying upwards of $6 for a cup of coffee, I feel that the space to enjoy that coffee on my own terms (within reason) should come along with.

They charge you a 15% service fee but dont tell you. There is a notice posted, but its out-of-the-way, so I assume the owners do not want you to see it. On top of that, the payment machine asks you for additional gratuity. Probably because the owners take 1/3 of the service fee for themselves.Thank you, greedy owners! Youve motivated me to buy a coffee thermos so I can skip your deceptive chargesEdit: If you want to avoid confusion raise your prices and drop this tacky fee. Or go ahead and do the service fee, let each customer know, and take the gratuity jar off the counter and take it off the payment option. Your choice to tack on a service fee without clearly explaining it to me when I make my purchase is deceptive, so save the semantics for someone who is easier to manipulate. I dont have an obligation as a customer to search your counter for possible additional fees that are added to my check for a purchase of drip coffee--that I have to pour the cream into myself.

Great little stop inside Union Station. The prices are what you would expect from a boutique-y type coffee shop. I had a small iced matcha latte for $4.55 and my husband had a medium vanilla latte. His latte had pretty artwork on top. Both were tasty! We enjoyed our beverages on the covered patio outside. We had a lovely visit.

Ive been dreaming about the Blended Caramel Cold Brew for four days. lolI explored a bit of Denver for just a few hours during a 7 hour airport layover.

This place has amazing coffee, bakery items, and super friendly baristas. They have both iced and hot coffee drinks including lattes, french press, drip, pour over, nitro cold brew coffee on tap. They have a comfortable coffee bar to sit at where you can watch the baristas prepare drinks. There is also a sitting area outside with shade and tables with chairs where you can watch kids play with the water sprinklers during the summer. Or you can grab your coffee and hang out in Union Station itself.They also make affogato using ice cream from the Milkbox ice cream shop next door. Affogato is a scoop of ice cream with a shot if espresso coffee poured on top. Pigtrain makes the best affogato in Colorado!Pigtrain is one of the best coffee shops in Denver. They are inside Union Station where there are often events going on inside&outside. And there are other places to get food or drinks literately within 50 feet or 10 feet. Pigtrain is also fast, so if you are in a hurry then they got your back. Pigtrain has great coffee, great atmosphere and good people working there. Check them out!

Quick, good, lots of selection, friendly people. The train station needs more outdoor maps with directions to this hip coffee 🍵 joint because the Google map 🗺 directions went haywire. They have food, but nothing kosher to my recollection. Loud, lot of people. Theres a dining area inside and out. There may have been Wi-Fi but I wasnt there long enough. Saw people on their laptops. The hotel 🏩 gives out free Wi-Fi though. Close enough to the train 🚉 station to run in for a quick cup of coffee.

Yummy coffee. Just loved the mocha, they got it right! Good prices as well. This is part of the train metro station in Denver. Right outside where the water fall area is, perfect for parents to get coffee and let the kiddos play on the water!

First off, I only write reviews for either great experiences or horrible experiences. We got our drinks fairly quickly - but that’s the only positive thing. The drinks tasted terrible. I had an iced dirty chai tea and it tasted AWFUL. I’ve had dirty iced chais plenty of times, and it tasted like trash. It took 20 minutes to get a bagel with cream cheese and the banana walnut bread. The bagel was super old and so hard to chew - it was like chewing rubber. Also the lady who took our order wasn’t nice and she kept forgetting what we had ordered.

Review №68

Made a great latte. Little strange that they have seating around the bar but you’re not allowed to order from there… had to stand in line to order, then take your seat around the bar. The staff is not very attentive, saw a lot of socializing, and even a staff member who brought their lunch in and left it sitting on the counter eating french fries in between making drinks and working. Not sure if they serve food here but I wouldn’t order based on what I saw. Cool location, nice to have outdoor seating when the weather is good.

Review №69

The coffee is good. The location is charming and fun to experience. Customer service is okay and can be rude. I understand they see lots of people come through the coffee shop, but your appearance is key to how your treated. When dressed up nicely, customer service is fine. When your dressed more casual (hat and very little makeup), service is terrible. I would think the location would bring lots of diverse people to buy coffee, so all customers would be valued. Not my experience. Ive personally experienced it both ways. If you go often, try dressing up and then dressing down as an experiment and youll understand my review. There are plenty of other coffee places to choose from that have better customer service. If you prefer your surroundings over service, this would be your place!

Really Retro feel here! ladies were very busy as this is a huge hub for people getting off the train like me from the airport. Coffee was phenomenal and atmosphere was very hipster! If you catch them in the right time right across the hallway within the same building is an ice cream parlor! Thats the only sad thing about this review is that it was not open. Now go enjoy

When I spend $5 On a cup of coffee I appreciate the friendly and fast service of Pigtrain Coffee. I always order and find a seat at the side bar where I can enjoy watching the artistry of the Bistros and catch up on my cell phone. Set in the nostalgic setting of Union Station the staff there always make me feel special and kick my day off to a good start.

They have good coffee and an entire menu of drinks but they only make lattes, dont order a cappuccino unless you want a latte.

This place has delicious coffee, as they serve Conscious Coffee, which is fair trade and organic. However, they I have to stop going to this place. My order has been wrong multiple times, the service at the counter is friendly, but no one is apologetic for getting orders wrong. The service is inconsistent. Unfortunate that such delicious coffee is associated with a poorly run business. Great location and atmosphere.

What can you say? This place serves its exact purpose as the coffee shop in Union Station...great coffee in a beautiful, well-staffed space that moves a line quickly. The baristas are as friendly as they need to be, but really the mission is to get caffeine and make sure you don’t miss your bus—and I didn’t (despite REALLY pushing it time wise). I’ve passed on the donuts so far, but they look incredible and I don’t know how much longer I’d be able to walk away without one.

They have great breakfast options, including burritos (veggie option) and empanadas.

Union Station used to be drab, seedy, empty, and, frankly, a bit scary. Now its a vibrant, lively, hip, busy, and safe place. Best of all, theres great coffee at Pigtrain Coffee. Well, my mocha was excellent, for sure. Great place to grab a cup of coffee and a snack before you board the new light rail train to the airport. Your trip will be much more enjoyable with a Pigtrain coffee.

I went in about 5 pm on a Friday with the looming prospect of a 7-9 hour drive ahead of me and figured Id get something to help keep me awake. I ordered something with a medically inadvisable amount of caffeine in it and hoped for the best.Great Scott Marty did they deliver.I rolled into my destination at 7 am having stayed wide awake the entire trip and wondering whether or not Id ever need to sleep again. I think I may have been able to see the future at some point.5/5, 10/10 worth every cent.

Got my order wrong and just didnt make it for some reason. Didnt apologize when j asked after it at the counter. Ended up paying $4.80 (plus tip) for a small brewed coffee with a squirt of vanilla in it and still barely made the train. Hard pass next time.
