“We’re trying to save a legacy,” says Fathima Dickerson, one of the Welton Street Cafe’s five co-owners. For more than two decades, the restaurant at 2736 Welton Street has been a hub for the Black community in the Five Points neighborhood and the source of great fried chicken. In fact, it just won the Best Southern/Soul Restaurant award in the Best of Denver 2021.
But now it’s in danger of closing because of a broken HVAC system, which controls the building s heating, ventilation and air-conditioning systems. Without air conditioning, the kitchen can reach temperatures above 100 degrees, causing appliances to fail and creating unworkable conditions. The cost to repair the system and deal with additional maintenance issues is estimated at $50,000, and the restaurant just doesn t have money to cover the cost.

DENVER â After more than two decades of serving customers in Five Points, the popular Welton Street Café is in danger of closing.
Restaurant co-owner Fathima Dickerson said issues with the restaurantâs building are threatening to shut down this community gathering place.
âWelton Street Café will be in jeopardy of closing its doors at the drop of a dime,â Dickerson said.
Dickerson said their biggest issue is their HVAC system not functioning properly.
On a hot day, the temperature inside of the kitchen can reach over 100 degrees making it too hot to cook and impossible to remain open.
