It’s National Coffee Day, so you’d think Starbucks would’ve at least waited for tomorrow for this kind of news…

Starbucks has closed at least 11 locations in the Denver area and Ft. Collins after announcing plans last week to shutdown hundreds of stores across the world.

Starbucks Chairman and CEO Brian Niccol recently announced that the Seattle-based coffee giant has identified coffeehouses that were unable to provide the physical environment expected by customers and employees, or did not show a path to financial viability.

Starbucks has not specified which locations will be closing, but at least 11 Colorado locations have been identified by several media news outlets. A company representative said the Starbucks app is the best place to find up-to-date information on hours of operation, including store closures.

Closed Colorado Starbucks locations:

  • 3617 S. College Ave., Fort Collins
  • 112 W. Laurel St., Fort Collins
  • 1670 Broadway, Denver
  • 1900 16th St., Denver
  • 1416 Platte St., Denver
  • 2975 E. Colfax Ave., Denver
  • 5074 E. Hampden Ave., Denver
  • 4505 Peoria St., Denver
  • 2300 S. Parker Road, Aurora
  • 6712 S. Potomac St., Centennial
  • 4298 S. Broadway, Englewood

Niccol said that in fiscal year 2026, Starbucks plans to increase the number of coffeehouses it operates and aims to redesign more than 1,000 locations in the next 12 months.
