    Cuba Cuba Café & Bar

    Try the mango mojito (rum-based cocktail) at this swanky Cuban joint serving finger-lickin' BBQ spareribs, flavor-packed fried yucca and a sumptuous coconut-crusted tuna. The back patio offers fantastic sunset city views; the bright blue-walled environs emit an island vibe. There's sometimes music on Thursday nights. Bookings not accepted.

    The Market

    Situated in a historic building on Larimer, the Market is an excellent coffee shop, deli and gourmet food store. The place makes popular sandwiches and coffee drinks (like a Milky Way latte), but they can hardly stay in stock of their cultishly popular cake, the Spring Fling, which layers zucchini bread, fresh fruit and cream cheese icing.

    Gypsy House Café

    This is an unusual place. A family-run operation that dishes up fine Middle-Eastern mains, deserts and snacks, Turkish coffee as well as espresso, and house-blended loose-leaf tea. The chaotic decor is true to theme, and there's live music, poetry, belly dancing and dub-reggae DJs performing on an erratic schedule. Internet terminals and free wi-fi make it popular with locals.

    SAME Café

    This nonprofit cafe was founded by two former food-bank workers, who wanted to provide healthy, by-donation lunches for those who were struggling to make ends meet. The standard American cafeteria fare is delicious. Walk-in volunteers are welcome, though you can reserve a spot in advance online.

    Volunteering here or dropping in for lunch is one of the most unique and heart-warming dining options in Denver, and demonstrates the most progressive thinking in the city's sustainable, local, community-oriented food movement.
