We went here during Goldens in Golden 2025 and it was PACKED. From getting in line to getting our food, it took about 45-minutes, with the majority of that being in line. Once we actually ordered, our food came pretty quick, and despite it being really cold outside and sitting outside, our food was really hot and definitely hit the spot! We both got the sunrise sandwich on an everything bagel. Cute outdoor area and loved that they supplied blankets for the golden event.

We stopped by on a Saturday morning to pick up breakfast to-go. We ordered two sandwiches--one on a croissant and the other on a bagel--along with a matcha latte. Everything was delicious, and given how busy the place was, it was clear that many others felt the same! However, the wait in line was quite long since there was only one woman taking orders. After ordering, it still took a while to receive our food and drinks. Expect to wait both in line and for your order--this is a very busy establishment.

We've eaten and had coffee here a number of times when we visit Golden and we are never disappointed. The small town yet updated feel and decor make you feel right at home and the food is homemade. They always have fun seasonal latte's and this week didn't disappoint. I enjoyed the apple butter latte with fabulous foam art on top. My husband the coffee snob loves the coffee there too. The breakfasts are basic but delicious and they can make almost everything on the menu gluten free! They also have at least one fresh homemade pastry that is gluten free. We arrived both times this trip weekdays between 6:30 & 7 so there was no line. We have been on the weekends and the line has been long but it moves along and it's worth the wait. They do cook each breakfast or sandwich to order, not premade in plastic like you know who, so you have to give them time to do that and the pretty coffee art too.

Adorable cafe, with a beautiful outdoor courtyard for additional seating. Their selections of breads and pastries are amazing, and they did not disappoint! I wanted to have the vegan breakfast burrito but I noticed it included hashbrowns in it. I double checked to see if they can do the hashbrowns on a pan and they said no it was cooked on a flattop where they cook meats! I was bummed, but I switched my order to equally good options. I ordered a yogurt, parfait, a slice of pumpkin loaf and a Cinnamon Sugar Pull Apart Roll. My friend got the loaded avocado toast. I ordered decaf iced mocha with a pump of their seasonal sticky bun. My friend had some issues with her coffee. She wanted half calf and requested a shot on the side and they would not do it for her. It was a bit frustrating and disappointing. Other than that a great place to go.

9/9/24 Café 13 was a fantastic breakfast spot! My husband, mother-in-law, and I enjoyed the fully loaded avocado toast, a delicious coffee bun, (definitely get this to try if you're into a 'not too sweet' dessert option) and a phenomenal kombucha on tap! The latte was smooth and perfectly made. Service was quick, and we loved the self-seating option outside. Highly recommend this cozy café to anyone looking for a relaxed and tasty start to their day!

Cafe 13 became our (almost) daily breakfast spot during a family trip to beautiful Golden. It's clearly a Golden favorite and we quickly realized why - excellent food with attentive friendly service. The avocado toast and lattes were my favorite! The croissants were flaky and fresh; not quite a Parisian recipe but close enough. Great café all around!

Emily's pick and she picked perfectly. Cafe 13 is a place that Emily picked out while we were sitting in Golden and looking for a place to get some grub after a very sweaty but very gorgeous hike at Red Rocks Park. I was leaning towards another place when she made the decision to come here and I am glad she picked the place out. We roll up and it was busy for Cafe 13. The line was backed up to the door and almost any open spot to sit was taken. After Emily and I decided what to eat, she had me snag an open spot before it disappeared. She got the food and I got the seat. We both ended up getting a breakfast burrito with bacon as our choice of protein. As we waited, she mentioned there is some outdoor seating that we could snag so we weren't staring at a wall while we ate. I took a gander outside and sure enough, there was additional seating around the side of the building. This area was perfect since it was cooler in the shade than it was inside the cafe since it wasn't air conditioned and the doors were left open to help cool it down. With how busy it was, it only took about 10 minutes for the food to be brought out. I think the wait in line is longer than that. The waitress put these big burritos in front of us and we waited no time to dig in. The first bite was love. It was heavenly and it was delicious. The burrito may not look all that big in the photo below but trust me when I say that Emily and I both agreed that we could've split one and still been comfortably full. I think I was barely able to polish mine off while Emily got about 3/4 through hers. I would've liked to try one of their baked goods but they just didn't sound appealing after being in the sun all morning. They looked delicious though! If you find yourself in Golden and need a bomb diggity burrito, Cafe 13 should be on your radar. Side note: There was this sweet old lady next to us who invited this older gentleman to sit at her table. He was sitting on the wall while waiting for a friend and she invited him to sit down until her friend came out or his showed up. Seating is a premium here with how popular it is. The whole interaction was sweet and reminded me that there is still some good in the world. Since we were done with our meals about 10 minutes after this, we offered our seats to the gentleman so him and his friend could sit comfortably instead of waiting for a table to open up. The guy was ever appreciative of the lady he was talking to and to Emily for her offering our table to him. It's the kind of thing that just makes your heart smile.

Been wanting to try this place and it didn't disappoint. Such a cute spot located in the heart of golden. Great outdoor patio and food! You order at the counter and they bring you your food. They serve breakfast all day. Lunch starts at 11. Small menu but the food is excellent. I got the loaded avocado toast and a chocolate chip cookie because who can resist a pastry or a sweet treat!

Eat, drink, and be merry. A must dining experience for breakfast. Service is friendly and top notch! Amazing pastries and scratch-made plates. Great decor, music, and vibe. Don't miss the mimosas!
