Olive & Finch, chef Mary Nguyen’s 11-year-old cafe and restaurant, will open a new location at Denver Union Station in early 2025, according to a statement Wednesday.
The company currently operates its first restaurant at 1552 E. 17th Ave. and a second location in Cherry Creek. It also operates Little Finch, a fast-food joint at 1490 16th Street Mall.
The Union Station restaurant will occupy the 20,000-square-foot space formerly occupied by Snooze AM Eatery. Snooze will move to a larger location within the building later this year after Union Station undergoes a major renovation.
Olive & Finch had previously announced plans to open a restaurant at the Denver Performing Arts Center; that location is also scheduled to open next year.
A longtime local chef, Nguyen began her career at The Beehive and Hapa Sushi before opening her own restaurant, Parallel Seventeen—a Vietnamese-French bistro in Denver—in 2005. She opened her first Olive & Finch in 2013 as a more affordable, chef-driven restaurant.
Olive & Finch Union Station will serve breakfast, lunch and dinner, according to a statement. It will also offer “a wider selection of grab-and-go options than other Olive & Finch locations for travelers, including a proprietary line of cold-pressed juices, sandwiches, salads and more. The quick-service restaurant will also have a full coffee program, a liquor license and a focus on fresh-baked savory pastries and sweet treats.”
