High quality drip coffee. They were happy to add fresh milk for me and added the correct amount which is important. Also ordered a bear claw pastry - it was fresh and tasted great!

The barista was on it and so nice . He was the only one working and it was super busy. It’s so nice to see a hardworking and kind person taking on a a fast paced customer serviced based job with a smile. Apple turnover was fresh and delicious.

In the Denver Airport. Busy but line moved quickly and had self checkout options.

I have a 5 hour layover in Denver and the airport has dozens of places to get coffee. When I got to my gate I stopped at the closest place that wasn't a national brand. I think that the coffee I got was maybe one of the best cups I've ever had. The two baristas were friendly and happy. Again, the coffee was EXCELLENT! So now I'm sucking this one down fast so I can go get another. I bet this is the best coffee spot in the airport! I highly recommend the Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf.

I was so happy to see the Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf in the busy Denver airport. I have always loved their Ice Blended Vanilla drink. It was my favorite when I lived in California in the 1990s. It still tastes perfect!

The coffee was amazing but the hours listed on Google maps and Apple Maps are incorrect. Stopped by at 7:30 pm today and they were already closed.
