SAME Cafe Contending for Hometown Award

Cast a vote for Denver eatery serving fresh, wholesome, house-made food to all

Thanks to Westword's Patricia Calhoun for reporting that Brad and Libby Birky, whose three-year-old SAME Café (So All May Eat), a pay-what-you-want or what-you-can restaurant at 2023 East Colfax Avenue, are finalists for NBC Nightly News' hometown heroes contest. The network news featured the cafe in its "Making a Difference" segment last March. Cast an online vote for the Birkeys by clicking here. The winner is awarded $10,000, money the Birkeys can put to good use for the SAME Cafe. I'm campaigning for the Birkys and their wonderful, idealistic restaurant.
