Step into Stay Golden’s new cafe space in the Nations

The restaurant and coffee shop said goodbye to its Sidco Drive location on Labor Day weekend before preparing the former Harding House Brewing Co. space for its Sept. 26 opening day.

Just in time for patio season. The Nations’ former Harding House Brewing Co. space has a new tenant — but it’s a familiar face. Stay Golden, a combination restaurant and coffee shop, is officially open at 904 51st Ave. N.

The biz bid its Sidco Drive cafe farewell at the beginning of September, a location it operated from since its opening in August 2018. Now, you can post up (laptop in hand if you work from home like us) at one of ~20 indoor tables, or opt for picnic table seating outdoors.

Visit daily from 7 a.m. until 4 p.m., but expect a limited menu at first. Need a rec? We dug into the breakfast tacos and sipped on an iced brandy vanilla latte this week. If that passes your taste test, explore a founding membership (pssst — it’s only available until Tuesday, Oct. 1). Perks include 12 months of unlimited filter coffee, espresso, and specialty coffee, a 10% discount, an exclusive launch party invite + more.

For those of you who might be unfamiliar with Stay Golden, the gem serves Good Citizen Coffee Co. — plus, you can still find some of your boozy favorites on-site soon. The prosecco bar, coffee cocktails, beer, and wine selection is on its way. Pour over your options.
