Welcome to a groundbreaking venture in the heart of Denver, where culture, community, and coffee blend into a unique experience. Introducing Convivio Café – the first women-owned, Guatemala-inspired, fully bilingual café on a mission to redefine inclusivity and connection in Denver’s bustling café scene.
At Convivio Café, our story begins with a shared love for vibrant food, communal gatherings, and a dream to bridge cultures through a welcoming space where every cup of coffee tells a story. Co-founders Baby, a proud Guatemalan living in Denver, and Kristen, a Denverite with a heart tied to Guatemala, embark on this journey amid challenging times, proving their resilience and dedication to bringing a slice of Guatemalan warmth to Denver.
What Makes Convivio Café Unique?
In Guatemala, "convivio" signifies a gathering where friends and neighbors come together, sharing joy and delicious meals. Echoing this tradition, Convivio Café aims to be a haven where diversity thrives and everyone, regardless of their background or language, feels right at home.
Celebrating the Roots of Our City through Culinary Delights
Denver’s rich cultural tapestry inspires our menu, featuring an exquisite blend of American preferences with Guatemalan classics. From robust Americanos to traditional Atoles, and Avocado Toast to Pan Dulce, our café is a culinary crossroads where tastes meet and stories intertwine.
Empowering Communities One Cup at a Time
Convivio Café is more than a place for exquisite coffee; it’s a movement towards recognizing and uplifting the communities behind our beloved beans and bites. We’ve forged meaningful partnerships with women-owned companies and cooperatives in Guatemala, such as Gento and Vega, and a Maya women-owned tea cooperative in Totonicapán. These collaborations not only bring you unmatched flavors but also empower producers, ensuring they receive fair compensation for their craftsmanship.
