the Mercury Cafe

The first thing that strikes you about this restaurant is that it is not your typical restaurant. Don’t get me wrong, everything about the Mercury Cafe was great, but you may be surprised if you show up without an open mind…
The Mercury Cafe is on the corner of 22nd and California in a slightly run-down area of Downtown Denver. Despite the outer appearance of the neighborhood, the inside of the Mercury Cafe is quite homely. The best way for me to describe the interior is its kind of like being inside a tree. What I mean is that all of the windows are covered with vines, bushes, and other assortment of growth so even in complete daylight, all you see is green! I thought that was pretty cool!
Depending on when you go, there is a main stage and a smaller area for live musicians to perform
As far as food goes, you better go hungry. Everything I ate was remarkably delicious and, more importantly for me anyways, nearly everything on the menu was organic!
All in all, the Mercury Cafe is a great place to go for food, atmosphere, and even to spend a little free time!
