Nice staff. Good coffee. Thank you for the classical to write. But maybe if you had less sales shelves and more sears more people would be here and spend more money. read more

Went to the free barista class at Brewing Market today. This is a free session held once a month and hosted by their main guy. I've recently gotten obsessed with making perfect, consistent espresso at home. I wasn't sure what to expect today, but I'm still in awe of everything we went through. For three hours, Jared answered every question we had in great detail (stuff like "how do humidity changes affect grind density?" and "what differences could you expect between a 30 pound tamp and a 40 pound tamp?"). He did demos on a simple home machine and then on up to the commercial machines in the store, making latte art all over the place. The breadth and depth of knowledge was exceptional, and I learned some good stuff. Of course, the latte he made for me was perfect in taste, texture and temperature. He also talked about their particular roasting process, and how they keep things fresh. All their beans are roasted locally, and their owner is as obsessed and meticulous as the rest of us. They're kept fresh in vacuum sealed packages for up to a week or so, and once they're opened in the store, they are in the hoppers for 48 hours max, at which time they are rotated and used in the shop to ensure freshness. Timing on coffee beans is essential for quality in the cup, and it's good to know that I can go to Brewing Market for fresh beans in Longmont or Boulder. They also have a extensive selection of coffee & tea related equipment, free wifi, and all that type of stuff. Overall, the class, the understanding of their quality control and the super-nice staff gave me a renewed appreciation for the Brewing Market. Definitely recommended. read more

Damn it. Young inexperienced staff this time with more attitude I guess than savvy. They were out of the dark brew of the day and I was in a rush. Grabbed the medium roast cup and was out the door. In so much of a hurry I forgot the "hot" sleeve. No problem, this shit was luke warm. Damn it! Two demerits! What happened to the cool coffee people that they had working here? read more

I use to love this place, been coming for over 20 years and they have changed. The new owner is rude and likes to make people wrong about purchases so she can make a few extra bucks. Loosing a long time customer over a $5 transaction is ludicrous. Oh well, on to a better coffee shop. Never coming back. read more

While I use to love going to the Brewing Market I have recently have been very disappointed with the management. The baristas have a very negative and victim hood approach to working. This one guy who i think is names Jake, is a jerk! I mean my goodness how hard is it to be nice when I'm ordering coffee. Why is that poor service can leave a bad taste in your mouth even when I am drinking a good cup of joe. I will be taking my money elsewhere as there are so many other coffee shops in Boulder. SERVICE is everything and I will take my business where it is good. read more

Great coffee. HORRIBLE MUSIC as of late! What happened? This used to be such a nice relaxed setting to enjoy your coffee. I miss the more subtle classical music. I remember coming here since I was little with my mom (a huge classical music and cappuccino fan). We shared so many nice memories here, and I have such an affinity for this place. Nostalgic in a way: the flowers outside, the coffee, all the beautiful chocolate displays. I'm not a huge classical music fan-but it set this place apart in a way. But lately it has changed! Dub step-electronic weird noise blasting at 8am is just too much. I couldn't even sit outside and enjoy my coffee it was so obnoxious. :( This has happened the last three times I have tried to enjoy my coffee at Brewers. Interestingly enough the couple next to me commented on how loud and distracting the music was, as they got up and left. Sadly, this will be the last time I have my morning coffee here. There are enough other good coffee shops around! read more

First of all the decor is quite nice, there is a lot of seating and the music was really groovy and not too loud. However I find it hard to believe a store in BOULDER still has non compostable or recyclable hot drink cups OR straws. I saw they had a few fair trade coffees in bulk but only in bulk. I asked The barista and they told me the espresso they use is also non organic as well as their milks. Taking a look around the store I also found no information concerning their organic coffee and their ethical practices. Get it together brewing market this is boulder. read more

This is a very sweet run gently taking care of mom-and-pop operation. We found a newly remodeled and a perky friendly staff after over three decades of doing business. We'll back one store for the actual coffee product itself read more

Service is good but their coffee/tea is just not good. I had their lattes, and it wasn't smooth and just did not taste good. I tried their chai lattes which they have a lot of choices in, but again it was not good. It's not flavorful and tasted bland. I do not recommend their chai tea if you're looking for the spicy chai taste. read more

I am so disappointed because I love brewing market and there are so few coffee shops in Boulder outside of Starbucks. I gave my order 3 times to the man to which he responded rudely saying he got it but did not because not only did they make my drink hot, they out the wrong syrup in it. My cup might have been damaged as well given that it is made for COLD drinks not hot. I tried to make this clear that I wanted an iced drink again 3 times. They were all moving at such a slow pace that I left. The biggest waste of my time and money. read more

I was pretty disappointed with the Brewing Market; their name is super cute, I just wish that everything else was as great as the name! Upon walking in, we weren't sure at which of the two counters we order coffee. The space is oddly shaped, and is cluttered with a variety of coffee paraphernalia, food, and knick-knacks. Because of this, there is not much seating, and the seating that exists is in the walkways which is inconvenient. The baristas were pretty rude and seemed bored/tired/annoyed (?). The nail in the coffin was the coffee which tasted burnt, sloppily made, and overall disappointing. read more

I probably shouldn't complain about this place as I met my wife there. However, whenever I go back I am frustrated as the service is very slow (especially if there is no woman in sight, those guys are so slow!!!). The coffee tastes alright, both Peet and Red Rock coffee are much better. The internet is very slow. It's a good place for just black coffee, but nothing else. The sweet section is quite good. read more

Love the chai, mochas, lattes and regular coffee (Boulder Blend) too!

Really rude staff. Unfriendly and had attitude when I mistakenly ordered a "tall" instead of a "small." The coffee was par. They gave my sister the wrong food (which we realized after we had already left). The products on the shelves are old and dirty. They had no one at the chocolate counter, and their labeling was terrible for all truffles. Hard to see prices. These guys need some cleaning supplies and to learn how to smile! read more

Very cute place. Would be a nice location for a couple's date. Blueberry pie and the caramel creme were yummy.

My mocha was delicious and the barista was a joy to talk to while she worked on the espresso beverages before mine. Can't wait to come back.

If you have the time to wait (sometimes 5-10 minutes), you will be happy with what you get! I love their caramel latte. They actually take the time to make good foam, and a pretty design on top usually :) Cheaper than Ozo, and WAYYY better than Vic's (that place is a joke). They recently renovated and the only complaint I have is that there are not very many places to sit inside now. read more

These guys have the best coffee in the area. They always welcomed me and made sure the latte is as I wanted. They have other milks beside the 2% which is awesome as I can't have dairy. I buy from them their own coffee beans to use it at home. It is so flavorful! read more

Brewing Market - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Boulder, Colorado

Terrible service at the drive thru by an obnoxious employee on numerous occasions!! Won't go back!

Im a professional Barista and I have to take my cap off to this place. I just had one of the best shots of espresso I've had in awhile. Friendly and knowledgeable stuff. Definitely a good place if you're a serious coffee drinker. read more

The new addition is nice & the coffee is OK, but the edibles are not. The past three times I've had something different & all three were barely mediocre & not thoroughly heated. In the future I'll eat before I go & just order coffee. read more

This place has really good lattes and a nice atmosphere. Also, the staff are very friendly.

I was coming here every morning for a couple of months as I work nearby. Great coffee/tea and snack selection, nice sitting area and clean and quiet shop. A few of the staff that I enjoyed pleasantries with have left and been replaced by really rude people. Not even eye contact or a hint of a smile, standoffish attitude, and it seems to be getting worse. The rudest person I encounter all day shouldn't be the first person I interact with before I've had any caffeine. I'm going to start going somewhere else. read more

I have been going to this coffee shop for years now and there is no better coffee, smoothies and staff anywhere. I do make it to other shops but their coffee is by far the best around. They also really know their beans when it comes to coffees, roasts, etc. It is a high traffic location with lots of regulars and sometimes chaotic but the barista's and counter folks really do a great job helping and are very customer service oriented. Just a great bunch down there! Thanks for all the good years of great service. read more

I love this place! They have a great selection of high-end teas and coffees, delicious pastries (try the carrot cake or the biscotti, you won't regret it!!) and a nice atmosphere. read more

DO NOT go here if you have dietary restrictions! I have a serious medical condition and I carefully explained my needs to the barista. They are NOT AT ALL difficult to accommodate, but they are extremely important - to me, at least. But Brewing Market apparently couldn't have cared less. After waiting and waiting and waiting for my order, I finally went to the counter and asked about it. They couldn't even find it and ended up giving me someone else's food, which would have put me in the hospital had I taken so much as one bite. But luckily I noticed it was not what I ordered. They were completely indifferent about it, however, so there's no way I'll ever go back. If a customer's health isn't important to them, they have no business serving food. read more

I absolutely love the coffee here and I make a special trip to the shop anytime I'm in town. My go to drinks are americanos, and nitro cold brew coffee. The espresso is creamy and not acidic or bitter. The nitro cold brew has such a magnificent head on it - SO creamy, it is almost like a Guinness. I've also had their green tea chai latte, which is spicy and a delicious little treat. I've had several baked goods - all great. They also offer a nice variety of chocolates and candies. An extensive amount of quality coffee and tea brewing supplies, too. read more

I don't know why so many people have given bad reviews. Ther staff seemed friendly to me. They were really quick with my order. The coffee is good. And they have tons of outdoor seating, which is dog-friendly! read more

I was happy to find a place other than leading brand....moved back to Boulder from Denver where we have so many great coffee shops.... This is where Brewing Market falls short for me on my first visit (not sure I will try it again unless stranded and no other option): the staff at the desk was more interested in acting grandiose for show (to oneself) than to have grandiose customer service. I was smiling, happy coming in. I got really excited when I saw a vegan option in their food section. I saw another item that sees from the package and name it could be something I can eat but since no ingredients were listed I had to ask if they knew what was inside. All I got from the staff and the manager was: "well if it does not say vegan I would assume it is not". People!!! how about: "you know what? I would love to find out for you because we have a lot of request for vegan items and it would help us to know". I asked for the manufacturer's phone number (local company who thinks not listing ingredients is ok) and the staff gave me a number before I could write it down. Top it all off, the coffee is tasteless, and burnt vs roasted. Sorry for the crappy review but surely, I hope it helps find the light and smile in you, create better staff training and learn how to make coffee! Good luck read more

The Brewing Market has been my favorite coffee shop in Boulder for years. I'm not a real rabid coffee-girl, mostly drink Americanos, but I love other stuff about this place. The selection of roasted beans is excellent if you want to take home a bag, they have mountains of cool teapots and cups for sale, supplies for coffee-makers, and the world's BEST selection of fine and not-so-fine candies. Gourmet chocolates, great holiday selections, unique stuff. Of course the patio with the heaters next to the world's best hardware store and friendliest (spoiled) sparrows is great too. And last week I found their newest location in the Baseline shopping center. A fantastic back room to set up my laptop to work and a great front room where I played Mahjongg with some friends and no one *glared* at us. read more

I went to the location on Baseline almost everyday for two years and if not that location, the one near Mcgukins. ALL of them SUCK! They are so rude and their coffee made my stomach burn. I'll never go back, they are snotty and have no clue what customer service means. read more

I used to come here quite often when I still lived in the area. I don't come here as much now, because this place is a bit out of the way from where I live now. But I do enjoy having a coffee or tea when I do stop by. The blonde mocha and the chair with green tea are my 2 favorite drinks on the menu. The baked treats and burritos are also pretty good. I should try some of the chocolates at the chocolate counter sometime. The service is always OK... The Baristas are always friendly and nice enough. They get my order right and make it just the way I like it. The only issues I have is that sometimes the Wi-Fi is slow, the wait time to order can be a bit long (this can be a real annoyance when I am in a bit of a rush and don't have much time... There were a few times when I just gave up and left because there were so many people ahead of me,) and the inside seating area can get very crowded, especially on days when it's cold and snowing or when it's raining outside. In general, this is a pretty nice coffee shop, and I will keep stopping by when I am in the area. Not too sure when that will be, but I will come back. read more

Most coffee shops in boulder are very good except starbucks. Brewing Market in The Village by McGuckin,s has great location with ample parking and clean outdoor tables. Coffee, food items all very good. Music is a bit annoying as is in most coffee shops. I think WiFi users who only purchase drink should leave a dollar tip for every hour they use space. read more

Decent coffee and chai. The place always seems to be filthy, so not my favorite place to come and sit.

My friends and I meet at Brewing Market about 3 mornings a week and the service is always friendly, they remember you and acknowledge you, they try to remember what you drink and it;s a great atmosphere. Love the music at night....great place!! read more

This place is awesome! Friendly baristas who know their sh*t and have great attitudes! Lots of yummy chocolate and snacks, nice bright environment. read more

The SLOWEST baristas in town... Coffee not that good. I'll go out of my way to go to Vic's.

A pretty typical coffee shop, but there is hardly ever a wait and usually plenty of seating (both indoor and outdoor), and the wifi is fast. A good place to have an average coffee or tea and get some work done, read, etc. The staff is also pretty friendly. No complaints. read more

I had never been to this place! Really glad I stumbled in, the coffee was great and the service was exceptional. It has a great selection of food items and candy/chocolate. Their menu is extensive and their baristas are very friendly and quick. Unfortunately, I did not get the names of the two tall guys who helped me, but they were so helpful with my first experience at this shop. Thanks! read more

I prefer Amante or Ozo at this point in time. Room to sit indoors and out. I agree with some of the other commentors that the service could be better. Nice selection of whole beans. Better than gas station coffee. Most of the time. Sometimes you strike gold where you least expect it on the road. I hope my next visit is as nice as Sarah J.'s or Nici S.'s. read more
