If you value our work, please make a contribution today to help us reach our goal.
Marilyn M, the founder, visionary and magic behind the Mercury Cafe, alone did the work of at least a half-dozen people. It is possible this reality was not fully understood by Danny. To hire competent staff to take over all these different responsibilities cost money, and these duties are in addition to front-of-house and back-of-house staff. The Mercury Cafe did not run itself. It just appeared to run itself.
Danny, please work with Marilyn M cooperatively, if she so chooses, to help find a new owner of this very important Denver business and community hub…one who is committed and able to keep the Mercury Cafe alive and successful. When were you last at the Mercury Cafe? What would you like to see happen there? Post a comment or share your thoughts athas been defined as the free, independent voice of Denver — and we'd like to keep it that way. Our members allow us to continue offering readers access to our incisive coverage of local news, food, and culture with no paywalls.
