I was having a rough morning and decided to take a detour to pick up some croissants, and I'm so glad I did. Snagged an Almond and a Ham and Cheese, and found myself literally digging the crumbs out of the bag after I inhaled both.

Tried a handful of items using the too good to go app, and everything was delicious. The winner was probably the focaccia bread, as it was super fluffy and flavorful. The pretzel was tasty as wel.

Visiting downtown Denver for this first time, this place was an excellent choice for coffee and baked goods. The cookies and "monkey bread" were a hit with our customers. The place has very limited seating, but a great grab and go place. Only a few minute walk from Coors Field.

Enjoyed the Pastries. Wish they could have more tables, but alley way there is not enough room. Really nice however and there is a bathroom in basement the next door over. A place I will go back to.

Review from Google · view on GoogleI was having a rough morning and decided to take a detour to pick up some croissants, and I'm so glad I did. Snagged an Almond and a Ham and Cheese, and found myself literally digging the crumbs out of the bag after I inhaled both. I love almond crossiants, but more often than not the almond filling is mushy and overpowering or non-existent. The one from LoDough is perfect with a crazy delicious filling and toasted almonds on top. I will definitely be back with the wife to grab a box.

Thank you for the 4 stars- We wish the same. Unfortunately, we can’t magically expand our square footage as we have concrete walls limiting our space. But there’s an entire hotel floor and an alley available for your seating convenience. Thank you so much
