Legends Coffee is bringing its beloved Aurora coffee experience to Parker's Mainstreet district. Founded by Jacob and Tabitha Wickline at the Southlands Farmers Market in 2014, Legends has grown into one of Aurora's most celebrated coffee shops—4.6 stars from over 900 Google reviews—and now Parker gets its own location.
The coffee philosophy: At Legends, coffee is a cultivator of community. The Wicklines take pride in being "the last hands to touch these beautiful coffees" before serving them, representing their coffee farmers with integrity. They encourage customers to "sip intentionally" and appreciate the journey from seed to cup.
Full cafe menu: Beyond espresso drinks, Legends serves a complete food menu including breakfast items, toast options, lunch, and fresh pastries. Seasonal drink specials rotate throughout the year. They also offer drinks on tap and non-coffee options for everyone.
Local roots: Unlike chain coffee shops, Legends is a family operation—the Wicklines have five kids and built the business to serve their community. Their motto: "the greatest Legends and stories ever told were shared over a simple cup of coffee."
Community hub: The Aurora location has become a gathering spot for Southlands residents. Expect the Parker location to bring that same welcoming atmosphere—a place where "everyone who walks in knows they are always and forever welcome."

Playa Bowls is bringing its "slice of summer" to Parker's Juniper development on Main Street. Founded in 2014 by two Jersey Shore surfers who started with a blender and a patio table in Belmar, NJ, Playa Bowls has grown to 300+ locations nationwide—and Parker is getting its own taste of Pineappleland.
The bowl lineup: Seven base options anchor the menu. Playa Acai bowls deliver the classic—energy-boosting, antioxidant-rich acai topped with blueberry flax granola and fresh fruit. Playa Pitaya (dragon fruit) brings vibrant pink color and metabolism-boosting benefits. Coconut, mango, green (kale-based), banana, and oatmeal bases round out the options. Top with everything from Nutella to bee pollen.
Signature bowls: The "8th Ave" (named after their original Belmar location) keeps it classic with acai, granola, banana, and honey. Electric Mermaid layers pitaya with pineapple, mango, kiwi, and coconut. The Nutella Bowl is exactly what it sounds like—indulgent but still fruit-forward.
Beyond bowls: Smoothies come in tropical flavors like Aloha (mango, pineapple, banana) and Acai Energy. Fresh juices and cold brew round out the drink menu. Everything uses predominantly plant-based ingredients.
Beach vibes in Parker: Playa means "beach" in Spanish, and the shops channel that surf culture energy—bright colors, tropical aesthetic, and a commitment to sustainability with eco-friendly bowls, spoons, and packaging.
