"Both shops received a full-scale makeover led by Denver-based multidisciplinary firm BOSS.architecture, with improved visibility and movement between the shops through wider window and door portals. Pigtrain's warm "dusty mauve" walls and lush suspended planters now pop against Milkbox's vibrantly chilly "waterfall" blue. Handmade clay zellige tiles line Pigtrain's new horseshoe-shaped bar and the wall behind it, above which hangs an updated menu board listing espresso drinks, pourovers and specialty beverages such as horchata latte and seasonal pumpkin spice."
"On the walls of the 875-square-foot coffee shop, new picture-frame wainscoting and trims enliven the upper reaches, connecting its modern identity to the station's historic character. Three-dimensional pyramid panels add geometric playfulness. Meanwhile, the shop's revamped layout improves flow and includes a standing-height counter that serves as an island where guests can linger. The redesign better connects the businesses to each other and to the station's great hall."
Pigtrain Coffee Co. reopened inside Denver Union Station after a six-month closure and extensive renovation led by BOSS.architecture. The redesign widened window and door portals to improve visibility and movement between Pigtrain and neighboring Milkbox Ice Creamery. Interior finishes include warm 'dusty mauve' walls, suspended planters, handmade clay zellige tiles on a horseshoe-shaped bar, and an updated menu featuring espresso, pourovers, horchata latte, and seasonal pumpkin spice. New picture-frame wainscoting, trims and three-dimensional pyramid panels connect modern design to the station's historic character. A standing-height island counter improves flow and guest linger space. Pigtrain originally opened in 2014 as part of a $54 million revitalization.
