We booked Candy Factory Co-working as the event space for a company social, clients, prospective clients, and their guests. Originally, we'd reserved the third floor for the rooftop access, but Denver weather had other plans. Enter Jose, our liaison, who pivoted us down to the second floor without missing a beat. It turned out to be the better call: more cozy nooks scattered throughout, plenty of little corners for guests to peel off and have real conversations, and a layout that just worked for the kind of evening we were trying to host.
The full kitchen was ample, with a three-table dine-in setup and enough breathing room that no one felt stuck in one spot. You can bring in your own food and drinks, you can move the furniture around to suit your event — the flexibility here is rare and genuinely appreciated. The bathrooms were clean, the whole facility was clean, and the seating hit that sweet spot of chic industrial charm with modern accents. Comfortable enough to settle in, polished enough that your guests notice.
Jose deserves his own paragraph. Candy Factory is closed on weekends, but Jose made an exception for us, and since I was coming in from out of town and arrived the afternoon before the event, he stepped away from his Saturday evening to give me a walk-around of the space. He let us load in early. He let us use the printer when we needed it. And the next day, when I needed to take a few phone calls, he comped me time in his working space, no charge, no fuss. That's not a vendor relationship, that's hospitality. He was a consummate liaison from start to finish.
If we host another event in Denver, Candy Factory is the first call. Five stars, easy. Thank you, Jose.
