The Scoop from the Gabby Gourmet Restaurant Show on Saturday, July 12, 2008
. . ."We went to the new Annie’s Café on E. Colfax and it was great fun. Breakfast, lunch and dinner-and snacks and whatever. And the food is really good and service fun and excellent too. We had pancakes –yum---and then the egg salad bacon sandwich, the salmon spinach salad, the fried shrimp and sweet potato fries. And there was no room left for milkshakes, sodas, pies, and more. So we will make another trip soon. It is a great addition to the neighborhood."
"…if you're in the mood for some comfort food… it has to be Annie's Café. The experience is reliably good, the food reliably tasty and digestable, and the bill always affordable. Good eats here. Simply said, simply true. - Metromode, January 2005

Top Grilled Cheese-Editor's Choice
Who are we kidding? Grilled cheese is not supposed to be some fancy concoction. In this department, simpler is better. And Annie's has the same philosophy. Its grilled cheese has a mix of Monterey Jack and chedar cheeses on sourdough bread - just the ticket when you need a comfort-food fix. Also, it makes a great meal for the litle ones." - 5280 Magazine
Breakfast Spots in Denver
Annie's Cafe is happily stuck in the 1950's, when kids carried tin lunch boxes to school and store signs came in neon (memorabilia you'll find on the walls here). Breakfast still means platers heaped with entres like french toast or Denver omelettes.
