Starbucks in Denver



PLEASE NOTE
The stores pictured below are labeled with information that comes directly from the official Starbucks web site. The only alterations I have made are to remove certain punctuation marks. Please do not report any errors in the names or spellings of streets or cities to me, but rather to Starbucks. Once they fix the error on their end, my database will pick it up. I will fill missing photograph dates as I have time, and I will continue to try and obtain store opening dates.

Check out the capitol building in the background. And if you visit Denver, check out the view from the Capitol building. But heed the walk signal first!

And if Chris from Irving still works here, I say howdy!!!

This location is one of three Starbucks (not including the Barnes & Noble Cafe) on the popular 16th Street Mall, which we see extending almost a mile down, towards the Capitol building. I stand at the boundary of the mall, but the baristas told me of expansion plans. So I have to wonder if even more Starbucks locations are on the way. Any bets?

And check out that cool cup!!!

REI Denver

OPENED: ?, PHOTO: ?

No question about it--this is the cream of the Starbucks crop in Colorado. Now, it does not occupy the entire space, mind you--the flagship REI takes up most of the space. But since the building used to house streetcars back when the world was black and white, there is more than enough room to give the Starbucks enough space to make it the largest in the area (or so it seemed, at least).

But the most unusual aspect of this store is that it is possibly the only one int the country that serves *hot* sandwiches. Their three-cheese and ham wasn't bad, unlike the mediocre pancakes at the now-closed Starbucks Cafe in West Seattle.

The store offers plenty of tables, a couple of sofas, and a row of booths for the more intimate dining encounter. The overhead lights are unsual, covered with an ornately crafted shade of either cloth or paper. The rivets on the huge metal columns holding up the structure are of course genuine and contribute to the realism, as does the metal staircase in the back leading up to nowhereland.

The REI itself deserves mention for being one of the largest, tall enough even to contain an immense rock climbing wall, and even offering this queer contraption--a cold room for testing out sleeping backs and jackets.

The baristas I asked were not able to confirm whether it was intentional or not, but a small seating area in front of a picture window in the back of the store happens to give a great view of the sunset over the mountains.

Oh, and check out the cool tiles on the wall, which appear to be painted by local schoolchildren.

Before heading out west for some skiing, you should definitely stop at this Starbucks in Golden, very smartly decorated with movie posters, which complements the fact that the building used to house a movie theater.

And for bonus points, who can tell me which other Starbucks in the country displays movie posters.

This store was the first where I took note of a clock on the wall. And not just any clock, but a very special clock displaying the House Blend logo, and a story of how the partners pestered the manager so much about a clock that he finally made good in a clever way. They also said that clocks are atypical of Starbucks because they interfere with the "third place", but since noticing this clock, I have noticed clocks a many of the stores.
