Pigtrain Coffee
Coffee counter in the Great Hall, open early enough for the airport train
The everyday coffee stop inside Union Station's Great Hall, pulling Conscious Coffees beans with house pastries and breakfast sandwiches. Its real value is the hours and the position: seven to seven every day, thirty steps from the A Line platform, so it catches everyone heading to the airport and everyone who just got off. The Great Hall's leather couches are public seating, which means you can take a coffee and a sandwich and sit in one of the better rooms in Denver without buying anything else.
Why go. Best coffee-to-airport-train ratio in the city.
Take the cup out into the Great Hall and sit on the couches; nobody minds and it beats the counter.
