    We love stopping here every year we come for our Spartan Race, the ambiance is chill and perfect to relax with a cup of joe. We enjoy the coffee and the food is pretty good too. The service is good and welcoming. We recommend this business.

    Review Visit: June 12th, 2019 Here is a bear PSA. If it's black, fight back. If it's brown, lie down. Bear safety facts aside, I had all morning to kill as my cousin went to Denver Airport to pick up another cousin. Using my Google-fu, I found Black Bear Coffee was right up the road from me. I pulled up the Uber app and requested a ride. 15 minutes later has me arriving at Black Bear Coffee. I offered my driver a coffee as a tip but he declined. So, I gave him cash instead. Casually strolling in, I noticed there was a delicious coffee smell lingering in the air, the chatter of casual conversations from the other customers there and wood everywhere. The decor of the place was wood. There were some small wooden bears near the register. Wooden beams in the rafters. Wood floors. Wood chunks of tree for a table. Wood you believe it? I browsed over the menu and was drawn to the Caramel Bear. The cashier told me it was a caramel/vanilla latte blend. Before she could even finish, I told her that I will take the largest size they have. As I was the only one in line, my drink was served up after 2-3 minutes. I picked up my drink and took a seat on a stool that looked outside. My drink was a good as it sounded. A nice blend of caramel and vanilla. Maybe the elevation had some play in it, but the caffeine did it's work. After a long night of hanging out with my cousin, it kicked in and woke me up. As I was sipping my drink, I was entertained by a dog that was sitting with it's owner. He was such a good doggo. Halfway through my drink, I swapped over to this big leather chair near the front door. I rested my drink on the tree trunk coffee table and sank in the chair. It was beyond comfy. I usually leave after finishing my drinks, but that chair wouldn't let me go. Sadly, this was the only coffeehouse I got to visit while in Colorado. But, this means I have to return to try all the others.

    Great atmosphere, the menu and food quality was amazing. Definitely recommend to everyone to stop by. Owner was very polite and personable.

    Great coffee and a cool place to sit down and enjoy breakfast or just chill out. Sometimes service could be a bit better but not a huge deal

    We ordered right from the counter. No onions on her Italian…read moreand they put onions galore on it anyway! I ordered the Reuben and it barely had any meat in it mostly sauerkraut and bread pretty sad state of affairs for sandwiches at this place and expensive on top of it will not be returning ever!

    I wrote a review about this store on FB around Nov-Dec 2025. I said that I wouldn't eat here again…read morebecause I got salmonella poising from their food a few years ago (I think Feb 2023). The reason I know this was because while I was in the hospital, the county Health Department told me that another person was poisoned at this same restaurant. I was contacted by Customer Relations on December 5th 2025 due to my posting. They seemed concerned about what happened. After our talk, she said she would send me some coupons to try the food again. I waited and waited. No coupons. On January 28th, I sent an email asking what happened to my coupons. Never head back from them again. Seems like the customer service rep just wants to ignore people who were put in the hospital to suffer and lied about helping with coupons to give them another try. I guess they really don't care about the public. I didn't sue them in 2023 after suffering in the hospital for 3 days, but maybe I should have. Just another company who doesn't care about the customer.

    I just went in to get my first Snarf's Italian today, and I regret not getting down there sooner!…read moreIncredible doubly delicious sandwich! I'm a second generation native of Colorado Springs, who grew up in the same neighborhood as Skiffington 's Drugstore that used to occupy this space that is now Snarf's, so I'm happy the space is reborn to be a fantastic food spot. I highly recommend Snarf's, and I will return back soon!

    Hubby and I stopped by for dinner and were glad we did. We came in a little late but the staff were…read morestill warm and welcoming. The place has a bright, colorful, casual vibe and clean. We both ordered the French Dip Sandwich with Swiss and Provolone which came out hot and fresh. The bread had a light crisp on the outside and was soft inside. The beef was tender and flavorful. The au jus was rich, savory, and warm. I even grabbed a spoon and slurped in between bites. Dipping the sandwich into that broth made every bite even better. The portion was a bit on the smaller side, but it was still filling enough for a light dinner. We shared a Zapp's Voodoo chips which we both liked. Got a chocolate chip cookie which I didn't finish because it tasted a little too processed for my liking. If you like a bit of heat, definitely try the green hot sauce by the drink station. Overall, Snarf's served up a solid French Dip-- hot, flavorful, and way better than the ones I've had at other sandwich spots. We'll definitely be back to try the other sandwiches.
