White Rabbit Coffee Co | 11187 Sheridan Boulevard #9, Westminster, CO 80020
Finally a local coffee shop (that isn’t a national chain) has opened up in our neighborhood. No longer do I have to drive down to Denver to get that local coffee shop vibes to read my comics at.
Having been open a few weeks now White Rabbit Coffee has become a great new addition to our community. Owned and operated by John Kirk, White Rabbit Coffee sits in one of the shops on the corner of Sheridan and 112th avenue.
With Starbucks and Dutch Bros opening new locations on 120th ave, I was fearing we would start to lose more and more small businesses to our corporate overlords. Once we heard about the coffee shop opening up we headed on over to check it out. It’s important to support your local shops, besides comic shops I also like to frequent coffee shops to give my business to the community.
Now over the weeks the interior has slightly changed with more artwork popping up. John likes to fill the place with art and is slowly building an eclectic collection of artwork on his walls. As more furniture, artwork & merch was added, the more it was starting to feel like a place to hang out at.
The atmosphere is always a friendly vibe. They’ve done a great job hiring charismatic & social staff that makes early morning chatter turn into sit down conversations that bring in more and more people. I missed the times when you could hang out at a coffee shop and not feel like you have to be quiet because of everyone clicking & clacking away on their computers. This local coffee shop has brought that community feeling back that many of us have longed for.
I’m a pretty basic person when it comes to my coffee, however whenever I’m feeling dangerous I like to get a hot mocha to start off my work day. Usually I’d have to go to Starbucks for that in which it always felt like I was drinking chocolate milk. The mochas have always been on point and my go-to drink to pair with their new pastries.
White Rabbit Coffee is a taste of what a community could really be and we couldn’t be happier with its opening. It’s now become a weekly date for my wife and I to enjoy our coffee and do some reading. We wish the owner well and hope everyone reading this gives it a try!
