Whether you want to sit down with a friend and catch up or grab a quick latte in the morning (or evening), there are five coffee shops that every person should visit at least once this fall season. All have distinct atmospheres and delicious drinks and pastries for everyone's preference.

1. Thump Coffee.

With their big building, people can pack in without feeling crammed, and are still able to get their work done. They have a "social area" for those that just want to talk, or they have long tables where multiple people can work. Not only is their atmosphere the perfect combination of busy and peaceful, their drinks do not disappoint. They take their time to create the perfect cup of Joe, while also selling their own beans.

2. Amethyst Coffee Co.

Their motto "Coffee is Beautiful" shows through their carefully crafted coffee. Much like Thump, the baristas take their time with the coffee beans to create a delicious drink. Their shop is comfortable and is more for those who need to go get work done. It is a smaller area, but decorated quaintly. Their friendly staff greets you, reassuring you that your coffee will be brought to you shortly, even with a glass of water.

3. Roostercat Coffee Co.

Down and out of the way, Roostercat is a place for more socializing than getting work done. They have a wide menu, but the drink I drift towards is their lavender lattes. The right amount of lavender is added to their two shots of espresso and milk. They, along with Amethyst, have a outdoor fire place big enough for a group of friends that wish to relax together. During the day it is a quiet place, but in the evening people go to work in groups, read in the shops big couches, or talk with others.

4. Steam Espresso Bar.

Their traditional coffee menu makes for a strong experience. With plenty of seating inside and outside, this shop is comfortable for everyone. Their atmosphere is unique and busy with a rustic feel. Their coffee is carefully brewed with a signature drink being the Mocha. Their food and pastries pair deliciously with their coffee, and run out quick because of how yummy they are.

5. ink! Coffee.

With multiple locations, ink! is a great shop while you are out shopping, especially in Cherry Creek North. They have their own roasting facility in Denver, which makes for wonderful brewed coffee. A quiet place for the workers and a quick place for the goers. Although the staff is willing to make drinks off the menu, you cannot go wrong with the drinks on their menu.

Out of these five coffee shops, you are bound to find one that you like. As for me, I enjoy them all for different reasons. They all have deliciously brewed coffee, which is prepared carefully. Their atmospheres and decor are all so different, any of these five shops are great for any occasion.
