When I need to hole up and get stuff done, I head to KJ's Coffee Bar [2], an under-the-radar coffeeshop on the corner of Gilpin Street and 25th Avenue. The friendly north City Park spot pours locally brewed Coda Coffee [3] and dishes up eats like mini pizzas and inventive baked goods like the tasty sweet-potato cinnamon roll and the beet brownie. The year-old shop is quiet enough to be conducive to buckling down, but not so empty that it's a ghost town. There are games and books for well-behaved kids, a sunny patio for nice days, and Boulder Ice Cream when you've hit the java limit. Bonus: As of a month ago, KJ's was awarded a liquor license. They celebrate daily with an afternoon happy hour (4 to 8 p.m.), when beer---from Dale's Pale Ale to Corona Light---outsells coffee. 1710 E. 25th Ave., 303-495-2020
