I’ve been partner dancing in Denver for over ten years now, and most of that time has been spent at the Merc. Always a good time dancing here. Tuesday is blues, Sunday is jitterbug swing, among others

What a gem. Great vibes, unique dancing, cool acts, tarot reading and great organic food. An awesome alternative to downtown bars.

Food, dancing, music, poetry & more, this place has it all. If you're looking for an experience, this is it. Food is organic and ranges from breakfast to lunch options for mostly less than $10. Read more

Entertaining atmosphere, but the food is really underwhelming. Sunday violinist & sound bowls were relaxing. I'd return for an event (poetry, jazz) but definitely won't take a date for brunch again.

Their pasta and their live events. They also have a fortune teller and swing dancing classes on the top floor. Only down side, it's cash only.

Can’t stay up late dancing? Come to balboa brunch on (some) Sundays! Low key, well attended, lots of fun, whether you brought a partner or not.

For thirty years now, Marilyn Megenity has hosted the town's most eclectic party at the Mercury Cafe, her club/cafe/community gathering place. Read more

Food was ordinary. I got the veggie enchiladas, wife got the linguini, both were pretty bland. Great decor and ambience though! Great for a drink and the live performances.

Good vegetarian, great beer, delicious wine, fine port and the most knowledgable bartender in the west.

Leizas tofu breakfast scramble with some house made hot sauce, and a small glass of OJ is the perfect brunch!

A great vibe even if you're not the organic hippie type (but still use the word vibe).

This place is such a great experience. They do dance lessons and the food is great!

From morning'til night, you'll find everything from dance to yoga, jazz to cello, with no charge for many programs.

Excellent yoga class on Saturday mornings at 10:30 am taught by either Piper or Kendall! It is donation based.

Great atmosphere and fun events. Spotty service and the food is not my favorite.

The guy who runs open mic, and sets the roster is a numerically challenged idiot.

Fun and eclectic with a couple stages.

On a budget? The quinoa & bean plate is $4 on the Artists need not starve menu. It's a ton of food!

Sunday night swing dancing is awesome! $9 for two classes and open dancing with a live band.

Best secret here: the vegan burger usually served on Saturday brunch.
