History

Established in 2011.

We love a good cup of coffee, Colorado’s amazing beer, and, of course, riding our bikes. The Denver Bicycle Café sprung from Peter’s head after he spent many years as one of CU Boulder’s transportation program managers. Jessica was living in Ecuador, teaching English and relaxing after graduating from DU, and Peter convinced her that his café idea was just what Denver needed. After months of «working in the cloud» with online documents and endless VoIP conversations, we were finally able to see our idea come to fruition. Over the summer of 2011 we worked to build the business, complete renovations and get the doors open. Welcome.
