New reasons to crave the new concept at Crave Dessert Bar & Lounge

March 4, 2015

The space at 891 14th St. started out as Organic Pizza Company five years ago then morphed into Crave Dessert Bar & Lounge three years ago in response to customers coming from the Colorado Convention Center, the Denver Center for the Performing Arts and residents in the Spire condo building where Crave resides.

But the public clamored for more. So three months ago, Crave reinvented itself as a full service restaurant rather than a dessert bar with a liquor license.

What has emerged is a useful eatery that serves weekend brunch, daily lunch and dinner and dessert bar for visitors and Denverites alike.

Restaurant adviser Leigh Sullivan hosted a press luncheon Tuesday to introduce the reconcepted restaurant.

“This neighborhood has evolved,” Sullivan said. “Crave is now a full service restaurant versus a dessert bar.”

Co-owner Allen Milham who owns the place with business partner Darrell Naughton said the evolution from Organic Pizza Company to Crave has resulted in a “sexier” concept with an expanded menu.

The lunch menu still offers Organic Pizza, salads and wraps accompanied with indulgent desserts. My guest and I tried the lamb sliders and Cubona sandwich followed up with the Hazelnut Hot Chocolate Cake and Banana Cream Cake. All of the above broke the delicious meter.

Hours are 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. Tuesday through Thursday, 11 a.m. to midnight Friday and from 10 a.m. Saturday and Sunday. Closed Monday.
