Happy birthday to our radiant light, Kate! 💖🥳
From your love of all things Maine to the magic you’ve brought to all of us through the joy of chickens 🐓, you pour so much heart and your wonderfully random, fact-filled, whimsical, nature-loving wisdom into everything you do. You grace us with your passion, art, and poetry in all that you touch.
Always up for a good (long) chat, and somehow remembering everyone’s name! You never backing down from the hard work and you inspire us daily! You rock those big boss-daddy Capricorn vibes like no other. 🐐🔥
Cheers to you, Kate! Here’s to another year of getting to experience the many many ways you make the Quince community feel so special! 🫶🏽🫶🏽❤️🔥❤️🔥

Bring us home for the holidays this holiday season. With plenty of catering and to-go options, Quince is ready for all your coffee and tea needs. Schedule yours now by heading to the link in the QR code or email quincecoffeehouse.events@gmail.com.
Thanks to the kindness and generosity of our community, we've already begun to create our Quince Community Pantry. This pantry is available to anyone with food or toiletry needs. We know at Quince that food is a right for all and not a privilege for some. This pantry will operate until November 16th. Any items beyond what we can stock at Quince will be donated to our friends at @thefaxpartnership. If you're able to donate, feel free to bring items during business hours, 7am to 5pm 7 days a week.
Día de los Muertos
“We are because of them”
Our Quince ofrenda for Día de Los Muertos is in honor of our queer and transgender community members who have ascended to their spiritual home. Día de Los Muertos is an annual multi-day celebration originating in pre-colonial Mexico to invite back these ancestors with a special focus each day. While we honor all who have passed, we dedicate our alter specifically to our queer and transgender loved ones who too often are lost to the hatred and systematic oppressions here in this country. This ofrenda will remain as an offering for those ancestors from November 1st until November 20th, Transgender Day of Remembrance.
The veil is thin between our worlds. We can see them and they see us - loving, fighting, living for them and our futures. Their lives were not in vain but in the pursuit of a better world for all of us. They invited us, so we invite them to our ofrenda...
Our saints of It Gets Better.
Our elders of Love Wins.
Our ancestors of Trans Lives Matter.
Our Angels of the Get-Through (Andrea Gibson).
Our pink sunsets, white clouds and blue oceans 🏳️⚧️
Our rainbows in the storm 🌈
Our Two-Spirits. Our dolls. Our kings. Our queens.
May they live on in euphoria and the knowledge that we will remember them as the beacons of light in the trans community.
If you would like to join us in honoring our queer and trans loved ones this season, and would like to contribute a photo of a loved one, email us at quincecoffeehouse.events@gmail.com. We look forward to celebrating them. 💖

September is the birthday month of our guy Quincy, who we’re ecstatic to officially introduce to you!
Grade: Senior year 🎉
Favorite drink: Apple Pie Chai (yes, year round!) ☕️
Favorite topic: marine biology 🦈
Can be found: In nature snowboarding and hiking or playing a solid game of golf for his school varsity team ⛳️
A big fan of: Fall 🍁 especially Halloween and loves a good rainy day in any season
Quincy joined Quince a year ago and holds it down on Sundays and the summer months when he’s not traveling the world. He is the cousin of our owner, Jenna, making Quince a full scale family business. As the youngest member of our team he already pours a perfect hot latte and is a stellar mixologist. Quincy can win at any card game and get out of trouble with a wink of his famous golden eyes but we know it’s because he’s a Virgo and does everything better than the rest. None of us compare to his cat Gus but we like to believe he’s happy as part of our Quince family 🫶🏽
Stay tuned to find out where Quincy goes to college next year and if he’ll share his recipe for pumpkin cookies 🍪
We love you Quincy! Happy 17th birthday 🥳

🐓 and the award goes to…🐓
@anjaoss! Anja Oss guessed Honey Daniels to be the first laying hen in a very complimentary and observant commment 🙏🏽 We were pumped to learn that Anja is also starring in a local production called “The Legend of Anne Bonny: A Sapphic Pirate Musical” 🏴☠️ showing NOW at The People’s Building. Get your seats!
Anja - we’ll have a gift card at Quince for you and (soon) a dozen eggs from your feathery fan club 🐓🥚 ☕️
#egg #surveysays #chicken #backyardchickens #coffeehouse #cafe #local #denver #supportlocal #musical #sapphic #pirate
🪺We have our first egg!!!🥚
Which chicken is the proud producer? Vote 🗳️ on who you think it is in the comments. First correct answer wins a free drink AND a dozen eggs! We will reveal the winner on Labor Day (get it? 😜)
Here’s some info on our mini flock:
They are all the same age - about 17 weeks
They are all different breeds
They are all female and no the eggs aren’t fertilized because we don’t have a rooster
The eggs start small but will get bigger as the chickens mature
The average number of eggs laid per year is about 200-250
Eggs can be without refrigeration for several weeks as long as they aren’t washed
The color of the egg is determined by the breed
Each Quince staff chose their personal chicken:
Hubert = Quincy
Odette = Miquel & Michael
Honey Daniels = Alex & Jenna
Tatiana = Xiomara
Douglas = Paige
Majesty = Conner
