    I've come again a few times. I remember liking the lox bagel. Simple but tasty.

    I tried the French press dip last time. Did not like the vegetables that came with it but everything else was aiight. I probably wouldn't get this again, would try something else.

    Mediocre overpriced food. Order your food at the counter and have it brought to your table. Service was so so. The cashier wasn't the friendliest and seemed very stressed out. My friend and I both had the crab cobb with the Old Bay dressing. We both felt there was hardly any dressing and my friend decided to ask for more. I didn't like the dressing so I told her to ask for blue cheese instead. They charged us for more dressing and when they gave it to us it was blue cheese crumbles not dressing. I went back in to ask for dressing and the cashier put her finger up to me to wait and rolled her eyes. When she came back she told me they don't serve dressing (not sure why this wasn't mentioned originally so we didn't waste money paying for cheese we didn't want). The Old Bay dressing was not good at all. Tasted like yellow mustard with a little Old Bay seasoning thrown in and mixed with some oil. Very bitter and didn't go with the salad whatsoever. The salad itself was lacking in flavor, but it also had so much thrown in it the flavors didn't mesh and were all over the place. Needless to say we both had a few bites and left our salads pretty much untouched. Essentially threw our money away.

    The menu also while very big offers no vegetarian or non meat options. I don't eat meat but I do eat seafood and the crab cobb was the only thing other than lox I could get that didn't have meat in it.

    This is one of those places I decided I will never return to.

    I'm a bit new to CO so I've never been to any The French Presses before but I LIKE IT!

    I enjoy how they offer a large variety of sandwiches, salads, and other dishes to choose from. I've been here twice now, and I like how the filling portion sizes (I only can eat half a sandwich for lunch) and also, when I sneak a peek at other people's orders they also get large mounds of delicious looking food no matter what they order!

    The staff is always very nice. It's just something about them makes them very pleasant. And the service is quick as well.

    Recommended for the flavors and top-notch satisfaction! You can't go wrong here, especially for brunch/lunch!

    This is based on my salad I got for lunch otherwise I had quick and pleasant service. I ordered the lox salad. Portion was decent but the salad as a whole was las a bit lackluster in flavor. Maybe a side of bread could've helped. I'm willing to come back and try the other dishes.

    I was surprised to see a French Press in Lakewood on an early Sunday morning before church. It's located in a newer outdoor marketplace with lots of shops an restaurants directly across from a hotel. There was plenty of parking on the street and an outdoor patio. I have been to the other 3 locations in the Denver area and the food was just as good as the others. We ordered the breakfast burrito and Juevos Rancheros and both were excellent. This location had bar-top counter seating as well as plenty of tables inside and out. We got seated immediately and our order came out within 10 minutes after being seated.
