Please join us! Katherine's is a European-style bakery and cafe. We specialize in French pastries, quiche, cakes and cookies. Our cafe menu is extensive and is served all day. Breakfast items include freshly-baked croissants in many varieties, including our spectacular almond croissant! Our crepe menu has both savory and sweet choices and, of course, these are made from scratch and fresh to order.

Our lunch menu includes classic and premium gourmet sandwiches, fresh seasonal and local ingredient salads, two made-from-scratch soups every day, and more! Contact Katherine's French Bakery, Cafe & Catering for complete catering services and European-inspired desserts. Experience the difference that Chef Mario and Chef Katherine will bring to your table with their made-from-scratch and fresh-baked goods. Whether savory or sweet, we are "at the ready" to customize a menu for you! Katherine's also offers customized wedding cakes and cupcakes. On the catering side, you may order for delivery or takeout from our menu of gourmet breakfasts (quiche, breakfast rolls, fruit platters) and lunches (boxed lunches and luncheon salads). We serve the Denver-metropolitan area, including Denver, Aurora, Cherry Creek, Downtown and the Tech Center. Katherine's may be rented for special evening events (retirements, birthdays, rehearsal dinners, meetings, etc.). For only $100.00, you may rent our cafe for four evening hours and have a private chef and wait staff at your service. Meals and beverages may be customized...and we have several pre-set menus for your enjoyment, as well. Please contact Joan or Katherine at 303-695-5000 for more information!

While a classic tomato sandwich might be filled with ripe, red, juicy tomato slices, sandwiched between two soft slices of white bread and slathered with mayonnaise, salt and pepper, I generally take a different route:

Toasted bagel
Cream cheese schmear
Just-picked tomato for slicing
Freshly-cracked salt and pepper

One of my favorite Summer lunches!

And I will try the more Southern version at some point.

Reminder: Our bakery-cafe will be closed from July 27 through August 11 for our annual vacation, and will reopen on Wednesday, August 12.

It's peach madness 'round here through Sunday...to resume upon our return. What a delicious time we are having!

Join us for peach crêpes, challah French toast with peaches, a lovely peach salad, homemade peach iced tea, and homemade peach jam (for purchase in half pint jars).

The Tour de France ends soon, and we still have sable cookies in bicycle and jersey shapes.

We are happy to serve you during these hot times.

Come cool down at Katherine's!
