Dazbog Coffee

Clean, small place attached to a hotel. Ok if want to grab something quick and are on the go, but if you are serious about your coffee, you will be disappointed. Not a ‘destination’ coffee spot.

Friendly Russians. Found myself in need of coffee in Downtown Denver. Was there sampling the *cough* local fare, and I needed a jolt to wake myself. I stumbled into Dazbog, glazed eyes and all… and I mumbled «double espresso». BLAM. Coffee. Tasty. Friendly Russians. Dazbog.

Excellent white earl grey tea. Super friendly barista. Got me in and out quickly and my way to my meeting at the convention center.

In town on business and found this coffee shop chain. Little shop with just enough space for a line to get coffee. Much better then the usual chain offerings from seattle.
Coffee was rich and flavorful, a deep roast but not burnt to hide inferior quality beans or poor taste. The staff was pleasant and quick; they were able to make short work of the long morning line of convention goers.
The coffee had a deep rich flavor that had some mild chocolate undertones to it. I usually have my coffee black or with just a bit of sugar. Unfortunately a particular chain requires some milk to mask that burnt taste of their roast, not so at Dazbog.
They also have a special brewing option that will have them brew an individual cup for someone, but I did not have the time to partake. If I did perhaps that would have bumped it to a 5 star.

Best little corner coffee and lunch spot in Denver. So much more than a coffee shop — bar, menus, TV for viewing the Ridder Cup and great conversation.

Das vidana. In mother Russia you get hot but no chokolat. This place is awesome. Fast wifi. Oatmeal looks great and healthy. Huge cookies. The hot chokolat was hot fresh tasted great. Whipped crème and sauce drizzled on top. I shall be back. The barista was so friendly and made you feel at home. And no Starbucks line.

This coffee shop sits across the street from my work. After about 3 years I finally decided to head over during the holiday season to see what they had to offer. The coffee menu seemed pretty common to any coffee shop except with their own names to drinks such as a cooler is their version of a frap. I dont usually drink coffee and if I do its the holiday pumpkin spice or in the summer just a mocha frap. I didnt see any holiday drinks so I inquired. They did indeed have the holiday flavors like startbucks. why dont they advertise? I went with the pumpkin spice cooler. I liked it a lot. I feel it is creamer (but not to creamy) but yet more pumkin spice than the typical coffee shop. What I also liked was there were no big ice chunks! The guys working are nice and remember me when I randomly come in once or twice a year. I did have their mocha frap but did not like it as much. it was sweet just not my thing. I found out they keep the pumpkin spice flavor all year long which is awesome. The drinks do have a different taste than a typical coffee shop and I couldnt tell you what it is beause I dont go very often but I like it! i would recommend this place!

The most average coffee shop in the universe, located in the most average hotel in the universe.
Not having spent time in Denver, I didn’t realize Dazbog was a chain. It’s a local Denver-​area chain, but it still provides that sterile, plastic feel that only a Starbucks could otherwise provide.
Of course, I wasn’t going to let its status as a chain shop stop me from caffeinating myself there every morning while in Denver. Since it’s located in the lobby of the hotel where I was staying (Hilton Garden Inn), it was just too convenient to pass up.
The beverages themselves are completely passable. I enjoyed my daily vanilla chai latte. Sweet, not too sweet, but always a little watered down for my taste. The important thing was that it provided the pick-​me-​up that I needed each morning. (I never stayed at Dazbog for more than 5 minutes. I’m more of a caffeinate-​on-​the-​run kind of guy.)
I did appreciate the random Russian touches in the décor. They even had little matryoshka dolls on sale by the cashier. My family would probably disown me if I bought one, but it was a cute touch nonetheless.
The staff? Efficient, but kinda distant and stand-​offish. Maybe they’re just as cranky in the morning as I am. (I thought about saying «spacebo» instead of «thank you», but realized that I would only receive blank stares in return.)
Am I dying to return? Not really. Did it do the trick? Sure.

I have to agree with the previous reviewer, Jim U. It’s more expensive than other Dazbog’s I’ve been to. I also witnessed the manager have conflicts with two other customers in unrelated incidents while I was there. It was very strange.

Part of a chain, this particular location is tucked away inside of the Hilton Garden Inn. Nothing remarkable here. A scone and a soda exceeded $ 5, and it really wasn’t worth the bother. It’s proximity to the convention center probably explains the higher prices. Wouldn’t recommend.
