Alice Q.

Such an adorable café, with drive-thru in the middle of the shopping area! We were in serious need for a quick lunch, before hitting a 4 hour drive on the road. Plenty of parking and outside seating available. We were not greeted, as their barista was busy attending the drive-thru! We totally understood, so we went ahead and spent 15 good minutes browsing the menu anyway. Once, we were trying to place our orders, the owner says their dine in hours are closed and we cannot place a order. We were confused as we were standing at the counter for a good 15 minutes and NOW you say something? Why didn't the barista bother to say anything? Not the greatest ending, but we moved on.

Their cinnamon rolls are yummy!!

This is a tiny coffee shop with a drive through. We were passing through town when we found it. Their cinnamon rolls are DELICIOUS!!! They are served warm, loaded with frosting, and topped with nuts!! They are pretty big too, so you should get full off only one! I am not a coffee person, but they have a ton of unique flavors to add to your coffee! The flavors sounded so good I was almost tempted to try some! A reputable person told me the coffee was quite tasty!

The menu is on chalk boards.

Very nice coffee house that will really satisfy your thirst and also has excellent specially foods. We had a huge homemade cinnamon roll that was totally delicious The cappuccino was excellent. Lots of breakfast and lunch options, too many to list. This is definitely a coffee shop the locals migrate to and that is a sign of good coffee! Definitely stop in when your in Pagosa Springs. It's easy to find and just a short distance off of the main highway, just west of downtown !! If you are in Pagosa Springs, Colorado, and need a place to sort out your plans and get a super drink, this is the place for your. It's small, quiet and friendly with tables inside and out and that includes a fantastic view of the Rocky Mountains and sometimes a view of the hot-air balloon which takes off just across the road !

Mexican mocha latte

The Mexican mocha latte and chai latte were pretty delicious, I'll give them that. Although the latte had all the syrup at the bottom... BUT the service was awful and not worth the price. Two drinks, a slice of quiche and a (small) breakfast burrito ran us $25. Also, the guy at the bar was rude and condescending. I felt pressed to order and he seemed impatient with us. Then the food took SO long. I mean, to the point I had to make go ask him if he remembered we ordered.. considering a quiche is not made to order and the burrito was basically just eggs and bacon, I'm pretty sure he forgot about our order. When I went to ask, before I could even get the whole question out of my mouth before he told me 'it's coming'. Miraculously ten minutes later out food arrived. I was interested in purchasing some of the items around the place, like through some of the vendors but he definitely made me feel like my business was not important.

Bacon breakfast burrito
Michaela D.

Such a cute little coffee shop/cafe! It was recommended to us as we were visiting Pagosa Springs for a quick breakfast before hitting the road home. The staff were great to talk to and their food didn't disappoint. My waffle was on the pricey side but it tasted delicious. The "hash browns" are more like home fries but they were seasoned and tasty so I didn't mind. My friend loved her breakfast burrito and we both liked our coffee drinks--they have lots of unique flavors. Definitely recommend a stop in!

Cubano Americano: espresso layered with sugar. Yum!

If pour overs, nitro-infused cold brew and uncomfortable laptop benches and tables define the modern cafe experience, Boulder Coffee Cafe (me thinks they should have named it the Boulder Java Cuppa Joe Caffeine Coffee Cafe) absolutely illustrates what a cafe in the boonies should look, feel and taste like. We were treated to a heapin' helpin' of tasty food, perfectly interesting coffee and plenty of good old fashioned hospitality in this place, and it's highly recommended. The three of us got down on a dirty chai, Cubano Americano (specialty drink, not bad!), pancakes, waffles and yet another massively stupid Colorado decision, a breakfast burrito. I'm not going to hold it against this place, it was just fine, good eggs and bacon, but I gotta stop getting my hopes up for solid green chile in Bronco country. Christ, Colorado chile is always so flat, and the black olives(?) that garnished the wrap provided particularly mysterious flare. Ambiance includes everything you know you're missing, kitschy antiques, plenty of naturalist art (most of it for sale), board games and kids games, comfortable couches and chairs, and a selection of reading materials that appear to be the lesser-known cousins of the Idiot Guides. Good stuff. We'll be back.

Slow as molasses. It was rather aggravating. The coffee wasn't very good and the woman messed up my order.

Cute little place but the food was very blah. Oddest biscuit I've tasted and the veggie burrito was mostly potatoes.

*Darn good coffee and coffee based drinks * Cozy -rustic-…read moremountain - cowboy - chic vibe * Coffee shop also includes a store with items you want to gift yourself - or others- (cool leather bound journals), outdoor/ kitchen items to rustic home decor, candles etc Shopping and/or perusing the store adds to the fun in this space *Indoor and outdoor space ( outdoor space welcoming to puppers) *Baked goods there sell out quickly * You can also buy their coffee beans- and if you do, you also get a free coffee. * Located by the river walk *Parking is challenging because of location, construction downtown Pagosa Springs and also because Pagosa Springs is pedestrian heavy due to tourism and access to the river... do be patient.

This seems more like a branding opportunity than a coffee shop. It's really an OK place; I'd visit…read morehere again, but I'd also probably try a few other places in town first. The vibes are strong here. It nails its rustic atmosphere and has a nice patio to sit out on. It's close-ish to the river, but you're mostly looking at a parking lot. All the other wares very much match the country-chic I think this is going for. I got very much the feeling of "we want to be a Magnolia of Colorado" from this place. Many of the items on sale referenced Root itself, trying to make fetch happen. As for what we got, we got some coffee, smoothies, and sweet tea. I also had one of their energy balls. Pricing was a bit on the high end, even for Pagosa. What was most absurd to me was how much my sweet tea was. Yes, it was good. But for that price, I was expecting a much larger cup. I was left thirsty. It's literally the cheapest thing you could make and not some secret recipe requiring expertise; for that price point I expected more to slurp on. The energy ball was tasty. The coffee, I'm told, was OK. The smoothies matched their price point and tasted fresh.

I have two reviews for this brunch place. One is for the food, the owner and the establishment A++…read more The other is for our server Allison (who I grade with a big F and is in need of training) I ordered my "Patria Plus" breakfast with two eggs over "medium". I always order my eggs over medium because I do not like a runny white mucousy eggs. One of the eggs was cooked fine, but the other one was undercooked with the white mucousy yolk. When I informed the waitress Allison, about this instead of her apologizing and replacing that one egg, she began to lecture me on how I did not order properly. She sent over the owner who was lovely and very accommodating A++ The food itself, the pancakes, the bacon, Home fries (with the exception of the runny egg) was very good and tasty. If you dine here I would avoid the server named Alison, who needs an attitude adjustment.

There is not call ahead for this location. I tried to see if there was a wait. Luckily we didn't…read morehave to wait long since we were out In the patio with our pup and baby. The service was great! We felt welcomed, and everyone was nice and courteous. Now onto the coffee. Hubs ordered an espresso martini, I got the nut+honey latte, and MIL got the house coffee. When I tell you we loved our drinks I really mean it! The food: wow. You can tell the secret ingredient is love! Everything tasted delicious! We were stuffed, my MIL couldn't finish her biscuits and gravy. Next time we are in town, we are definitely coming back! Thank y'all for an amazing brunch!
