Welcome to Acova, a neighborhood favorite nestled in the heart of Denver’s historic and vibrant LoHi district. Opened in 2018 by local restaurateurs Betsy and Sean Workman, Acova was designed to be more than just a place to eat—it’s a place to gather. Inspired by the Italian word “cova,” meaning “nest,” Acova offers a warm and welcoming atmosphere where everyone, from families and foodies to brunch lovers and cocktail enthusiasts, can feel right at home.
Our menu is a creative take on New American cuisine, featuring dishes made with fresh, high-quality ingredients and designed to accommodate all dietary lifestyles. With gluten-free, vegetarian, vegan, and allergy-conscious options, Acova is committed to making every guest feel cared for and included. From our fan-favorite Honey Stung Fried Chicken to the indulgent Lobster Mac & Cheese, there’s something here for every craving.
We also serve a wildly popular weekend brunch, host weekday happy hours, and offer seasonal specials that keep things exciting all year round. Whether you're here for a casual lunch, a romantic dinner, or just drinks on our spacious patio, Acova brings together the best of comfort and creativity.
More than a restaurant, Acova is a neighborhood nest—a place to connect, celebrate, and enjoy great food with even better company. Come visit us in LoHi and experience the charm for yourself.
