Great first experience with an independent coffee shop. Great atmosphere, very clean and inviting. Knowledgeable and friendly barrista, she gave me a good overview of the coffees and food. I opted for the coloumbian drip coffee. It was sweet and very flavorful. They source their beans specifically for thier shop and roast locally. It was a great experience

The new Queen City coffee shop in Aurora is such a great addition to the neighborhood! It’s located on the ground floor of the beautiful Broadleaf Apartments, with easy access right off Colfax and plenty of free parking in the large lot out front. There’s tons of seating, both inside the shop and in the apartment lobby, which is open to customers, making it a perfect spot to work, study, or catch up with friends. The coffee is absolutely delicious, the pastries are a treat, and the baristas are always super friendly and welcoming. Definitely worth a visit!

Starbucks should take lessons from Queen City Collective. They do a few things and they do each exceptionally well. Courtney is what a barista should be. Listens, guides and makes coffee fun. The coffee was so well made, this is a high compliment as I am a proud coffee geek. We will go out of our way to visit daily if possible.

Brand new beautiful Queen City Coffee right across the street from the hospital!! It's really easy to use the Hyatt pedestrian bridge to cross Colfax for a quick high quality latte. Plenty of space in the cafe and Broadleaf apartment building lobby to kick back and relax.
