I had to make a little trip to get over there, but it was great! I love the "funky coffee house" feel, and Monkey Bean has this down! Evyerthing from the plaster/brick walls to the mismatched furniture adds to a great atmosphere at Monkey Bean.<br /><br /><br /><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/393/1165/0/Picture054-789180.jpg"><img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/393/1165/0/Picture054-789180.jpg" border="0" /></a>The patio is also amazing & they now have hammocks. They have created a nice little "oasis" here. It is right on Broadway, so traffic noise outide is a factor if you are talking on the phone or need some "peace and quiet" but I enjoyed it, as it just adds to the uniqueness factor of this place.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.denvercoffeespots.com/#monkey"><strong><br /></strong></a><br /><strong>The "Perks": </strong><br /><ul><li>Monkey Bean has a great menu!
