Aside from the silly name--C.R.E.A.M. is an acronym for "coffee rules everything around me"--I really like this three-month-old coffeehouse. The upbeat shop, which took over the tired Java Creek location at Third Avenue and Columbine Street, pours locally based Coda Coffee [2] and bakes their own pastries. Don't miss pairing a smooth latte with a bite-size cupcake (try the red velvet) or a thick-cut, iced sugar cookie. The spot also serves hefty breakfast burritos and flaky scones. 287 Columbine St., 303-377-8902
