A local woman-owned coffee brand is growing its footprint once again.
Copper Door Coffee Roasters has announced plans to open its fifth café at 1423 South Holly St in Denver’s Virginia Village neighborhood. “We’ve been keeping a secret… and it’s finally time to spill,” the team teased on social media. “We can’t wait to bring fresh roasts, cozy corners, and community to a brand new neighborhood this fall. 🍂”
Founded in 2006 by Sinjin Eberle, Copper Door started out as a humble wholesale operation, with beans roasted out of a garage. The company entered a new chapter in 2014, when Hannah Ulbrich—a mother and literature professor with a background in coffee—took the reins, steering the brand toward a more community-driven, café-focused model.
Today, Copper Door operates four locations across the Denver area, including at Aspen Grove in Littleton, Park Hill, Lowry, and inside the Denver Botanic Gardens. Notably, it stands as the city’s only 100% woman-owned coffee roaster, championing female leadership in an industry where it remains underrepresented.
At the Virginia Village café, guests can expect a thoughtfully crafted menu of small-batch coffee drinks—think lattes, cappuccinos, mochas, and cold brew—alongside teas, hot chocolate, and a curated selection of pastries and breakfast items.
Offerings include breakfast sandwiches, burritos, croissants, muffins, scones, and oatmeal, as well as gluten-free and vegan sweet breads sourced from Longmont-based Outrageous Baking.
What Now Denver has reached out to the Copper Door Coffee Roasters team and will share updates as they become available.
