This place feels a little greasy (somehow, for a coffee shop), but the iced coffee was quite good!

Caaayoooote for you and your furry friend! Must try the jazzy java if you're coming for the coffee has a great sweet taste

This place is cheap but you definitely get what you pay for. I had the veggie burrito and it was small and not very tasty.

I love the Barking Dog. Yes, it is smaller than the Stone Cup, but the owner is a really nice guy. He is always smiling and super helpful. The baristas that work here all seem to be genuinely happy to be at work. The vibe is kind of funky. Perfect for Lyons. Bluegrass music softly playing in the background and plenty of good pastries and typical (but really good) coffee shop food and drinks. My favorite things to get is the locally made chai tea and a toasted bagel with cream cheese and fresh tomato slices. This is certainly not Starbucks. It may take a few minutes to get your food, but it is made right in front of you by people that are nice and genuine. I love the small town feel and great customer service. read more

I'm lowering my rating by one star. I still think the staff is friendly and the environment is nice, but my past three visits there have been a number of flies buzzing around and it's distracting while I'm trying to drink my coffee or get work done on my laptop. My other complaint is that I sometimes experience a slow internet connection when I connect to their wifi. Maybe someone else was connected and running video but the reason I go there is to work on my laptop. I might have to go to Stone Cup next time. read more

Excellent coffee drinks and pastries. Nice staff. Great smoothies. Worth stopping here. Very yummy sandwiches too.

Decent priced mochas with cute dog-friendly names. Had a bad experience, but was righted quickly by one of the baristas.

Solid neighborhood joint. Full of locals but welcoming to strangers. Lots of light through the huge front windows, chill staff, groovy tunes on the stereo. Oh, and a Baaaadass BLT (get it w/ cream cheese on an everything bagel). read more

Good coffee, decent to good food, nice location, good service. The locals love this place. I would go back. Live music on occasion.

fRIENDLY staff, very helpful. I am not a connoisseur of coffee or the other items. I was advised to try the iced coffee here, I am a big fan, very rich and deep flavor! Yummy sandwich, very unique, very accessable on main street and sat at a large table with other strangers and had conversation and fun.. read more

Lovely place for breakfast and to sit on the sidewalk and talk. Their menu is great. The breakfast burritos we had hit the spot perfectly. I love that they have the option of coffee mugs out for patrons to use instead of paper cups. I'm finding this to be not the norm anymore so it's a nice thing to see. read more

The barking dog is just our favorite place to go when stopping through Lyons especially in the early mornings before enjoying a good hike. They have a great seating area in front and outback and are dog friendly outside. Don't forget to keep your ears open for some good bluegrass read more

Very nice coffee and sandwich shop. I had a Nutella latte, which was quite good. The froth on top was creamy and just the right amount.

Great Jazzy Java. Nutty, and cinnamon hints...yum. IT SMELLS SO GOOD IN HERE. Friendlier staff than the other shop. Maybe less parking though. read more

Perfect stop for cyclists! Great fresh hot coffee. Fantastic cinnamon rolls. Nice people and a quiet shaded patio in back.

Just stopped in and had an amazing sausage, egg and mozzarella cheese on a croissant. It was fluffy sand perfect. The coffee was also very good and had many options for sweeteners. Great service with a smile! read more

This coffee shop seems really friendly and their coffee creations are delicious! The Baristas are attentive, and seem to really know how to whip up a great morning starter! The parallel parking is limited to the Main Street, but it almost seems like half the customers walk there anyway, so you can usually find a spot very close. They also offer breakfast sandwiches, and the only three I've ever ordered, were all uniformly prepared with fresh vegetables and quality bread products. Puts Starbucks to shame, try this place!! read more

Haven't been in Lyons in a long time so my daughter and I stopped at this cool little cafe right in the middle of Main Street. Very friendly lots of locals. What's not to like exclamation point read more

We made a quick breakfast stop in Lyons with my family of four. The coffee shop is eclectic, and relaxed atmosphere. The drop coffee was great and my kids enjoyed their hot chocolate and caramel apple cider. Service was fast and friendly. read more

Could be a very cool restaurant, but I sat for 10 minutes with no greeting, and though I'm not in any kind of a hurry, it's a bit of a turn off with a start like that. So I went ahead and left. read more

Best coffee shop in Lyons. Silver canyon coffee, bagels pastries etc. where the locals hang

My boyfriend and I had a great hot chocolate, white chocolate latte, plus banana bread and pumpkin bread on a rainy afternoon. Cool vibe. Nice people. Free Wi-Fi. Great little hang out. read more

Cute place, great coffee, friendly service, and a fun location on Main Street to hang out on the front patio and relax.

Great peeps and nice coffee!! I like to stop there to get my caffeine fix before heading to the mountains.

Ghastly, slow, rude service. Zombie baristas. Boring white bread food. Don't waste your time and money. Go instead to the Stone Cup one block away. Far superior! read more

Breakfast , teas, lattes, pastries, sandwiches, salads, fresh fruit, and smoothies, and super cheap day old baked goods; this place rocks. Dropped by after a nice bike ride to Lyons and was fully stoked to be able to expend the rest of the cash in my wallet ($3.00) for some post-ride sustenance, an awesomely moist raspberry and chocolate muffin (I would have taken a photo, but I devoured it within seconds) and a somewhat ok "fig bar" pack. The not too exciting "Fig bar" pack was not the fault of the barking dog café - they didn't make it there; just a pre-packaged product sold along with the cliff bars and fruit leathers. That muffin really was excellent. There are nice tables. some provide sun protection with umbrellas, out front, rocking chairs, and bizarre artwork fashioned onto their newspaper dispenser - the Lyons Recorder. Inside, there are tables with people dining, sipping on coffee, and working on their computer. Cool artwork is strewn throughout the establishment, and along with the comfy chairs and tables, the place makes for a cozy spot to spend some time. O yea, there's also a huge patio outback with more seating and tables. Dogs welcome. read more

Coffee is watery, service is slow, burritos are pre made (and cannot be made to order to accommodate dietary needs), and order was wrong.

I prefer the Dog's coffee and ambiance to that place around the corner. These guys really know how to make an Americano that kicks. But they need more help behind the counter on busy summer Saturdays. read more

Great coffee and sandwiches. Very pleasant and friendly staff. Recommend this to anyone driving from Denver to Rocky Mountains

I visited Lyons for a couple days to hike in Rocky Mt. National Park and felt so at home here. What a great way to start one's morning! There is a regular crowd of patrons and it truly seems like the kind of coffee shop (and town) where everyone knows your name. The day-old pastries are a great, still delicious deal. read more

This place has great coffee, serves my favorite chai tea, has good food and homemade bread and pies. Nice relaxed atmosphere, dog friendly, and plenty of outdoor seats in the summer. Definitely stop in if you are ever heading through Lyons! read more

1st and last stop. Very bad service even though the place was not busy. Coffee was not to good (thank God I didn't order the large!)

I love coming to Lyons specifically for Barking Dog Cafe. I especially love their breakfast burrito and the coffee is good. Great vibes and cool atmosphere. Today I was very turned off by my barista who didn't greet me at all, had zero eye contact, lacked customer service, and failed to announce when my food was ready. Despite the bad service today, Barking Dog remains one of my favorite coffee shops. I recommend a try! read more

This place is a mixed bag. The food was average, reasonably priced, and came out fast. I imagine the coffee would've been good, if there was any. Informing the barista, as a sign by the pots instructs, does nothing to improve the availability of coffee, which is pretty unfortunate at 8 in the morning in a place where you pay first. In general, the staff appears to be friendly to the regulars, and pretty rude to everyone else. Maybe they were having an off day, but nonetheless probably not somewhere I'd stop again. read more

A low key and relaxing place to stop for breakfast, coffee or lunch. This was the first place that I went in Lyons and four years later its still my favorite cafe. Coffee is good and the pastries are tasty. read more

Great coffee, nice atmosphere on the main drag in Lyons. Good sandwiches and other snack fare, but save room for a sweet! The pastries are out of this world---creative and delicious! read more

Best coffee shop around!! The baked treats by Amanda are incredible, especially the quiche. Awesome coffee, great seating both indoors and out for friends or for working, good music, and the staff is a huge part of the Lyons family. read more

Friendly atmosphere. Great coffee. Very cozy. We like spending time there. They have great cinnamon rolls which pairs perfectly with their coffee. read more

If you're passing through Lyons, this is the only legitimate cafe to visit. Great coffee beverages, great breakfast and lunch sandwiches, and great service. My only complaint is that the salads and burritos are slightly sub-par, but hey, who goes to a coffee cafe to get a salad or burrito? Would give 4.5 stars for what it's worth, but I gave it 5 because 4 is too low! read more

go to the stone cup around the corner. better coffee-better atmosphere.
