Good little coffee shop at the base of the mountain! Staff was super kind and friendly and the latte was delicious! There is WiFi, but I had trouble connecting to it so I just used my hotspot, but it still worked out! read more

Coffee lab is a nicely located little coffee shop just north of mt. Crested butte on the way to some of the hikes up there eg rustler's gulch. There is a spicket near the portapotties to the left of the visitor's building that is adjacent to coffee lab so you can use the bathroom/refill water bottles there. I ordered a golden milk with lavender flavor bc I was curious; I didn't taste the lavender really but the golden milk was nice. The barista was also friendly, and there are a couple tables inside you can sit and a few picnic tables out front. read more

Coffee Lab - Out front, driving past (back toward Crested Butte) - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Mount Crested Butte, Colorado

The science of coffee is very good here. My favorite thing is their willingness to put any beverage into my own mug - novel, perhaps, but cuts down on waste atop the range and makes me feel at home. It's casual, cozy, and keeping me fueled for all that outdoorsy hiking, mountain biking, and skiing I look forward to returning to. read more

Coffee Lab - Mocha in my mug! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Mount Crested Butte, Colorado

Great prices for a ski village and great coffee. Ordered a drip and they offered oat milk for free (not all coffee shops will). Had a nice selection of sweeteners and simple syrup at the help yourself bar to customize your drink. $2.75 for a drip coffee is a steal. Also grabbed up a $3.25 vegan tamale and it was delicious. I mean, I'd like 10 more. My husband, 11yo and I each shared a couple bites each. I'd order those again and again. Very cute interior and lots of options to buy grab and go drinks and foods. Even earrings and other local artisan items. Great vibes. Tucked away right next to the bus terminal area for the downtown shuttle. Lots of vegan offerings. Just what we needed for our drive back to Colorado Springs. read more

Coffee Lab - Fettuccine to stir my coffee. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Mount Crested Butte, Colorado

I made a number of stops here during my short ski trip to Crested Butte. I was staying at nearby Grand Lodge and was able to walk here. Coffee Lab is located near the Base Area of Crested Butte Mountain Resort. I like that they open early and have later hours. I was able to come here early in the morning after opening. And then I made a couple of stops here for my late afternoon pick-me-up after skiing all day. The menu has all your basic coffee drinks with pastries and baked goods. They also have breakfast and lunch items. The coffee here is nice and smooth and the customer service was always great. Thank you Coffee Lab for the hospitality and for supporting my coffee addiction. read more

A local coffee shop located right at Crested Butte's Base Camp?! Yes please! Lots of coffee and tea options available at reasonable prices! On both visits, I went with a London Fog and had them turn it into a latte with Vanilla, Lavender, Honey, and oat milk - it was very good! While I didn't order any pastries, I loved that they offer a couple of gluten-free options - a GF banana nut bread and a GF glazed donut! The team member in the morning was more knowledgeable and a bit friendlier than the one in the late afternoon... but service overall was good on both visits. I wish the coffee shop itself was a bit larger with more seating, but we always found a table to sit and relax for a bit after getting our drinks! Overall rating: *****FIVE STARS***** Gluten-free rating: ****FOUR STARS**** read more

Quiet, tastefully decorated interior, fit the mountain vibe perfectly. I got a London Fog with lavender and it was delicious. The prices were great, not jacked up like I've come to expect from a lot of Vail Resorts-adjacent businesses. The girl making my drink was calm and polite, and offered to refill my water bottle for me while I was there. Definitely recommend if you're staying at the hotels here or just driving in to ski! read more

I had a quad espresso and it really was a perfect pull. Cool shop in an awesome area. The one lady working was very nice too! I'm not up here often (once every two years) but I would be here everyday if I lived here read more

Super delicious coffee and friendly service! Always a treat to stop by here after skiing.

The place is cute and loaded with real plants! So that was really cool. Came here a few days ago and the coffee was amazing. Today we went and every drink we got was just plain wrong. My daughter got me a coconut milk latte and they didn't even add coffee to it. So it was frothed coconut milk! The Italian soda was nasty. She came home and added cranrasberry juice to it to make it drinkable. Then the chai tea was Not very chai. She added so much cinnamon it made it chunky. We tipped well too. No one even smiled or was nice. read more

Please update your menu photos as they have significantly changed and your food options are much more limited that you picture of your menu shows. read more

We went here for breakfast before hitting the slopes, however, after seeing the prices and quality of the food (microwaveable packaged burritos, untoasted bagels with spread it yourself butter and cream cheese), we decided to just get coffee and stop for an early lunch instead. The drip coffee was alright, the mocha was good, and the apple cider was gross. The cider tasted as if it was made with unripe apples and was therefore really sour. Pretty bummed with the breakfast options at the base of the mountain, but this was at least better than the other place we tried - Coal Breakers Coffee. read more

You often have to compromise on quality at a ski village, but not here. Good coffee and pastries, Torani selection and local gifts. Nice atmosphere with a lush array of plants. I love the Venn diagram along with a graphical representation of milk proportions in the range of coffee drinks from espresso to latte. read more

Good coffee, service was fast. And a nice indoor and outdoor atmosphere to enjoy the coffee. Hot chocolate was very good as well.

Coffe was good. For a tiny spot they have a decent number of options for food. Prices are a little high, but reasonable for the surroundings. read more

Great espresso and service. It's so convenient to the mountain. Bought their logo tshirt and some stickers since we were repeat customers EVERY day! read more

Excellent coffee, friendly and fast service and very convenient location. A small but excellent pastry selection, swag for sale and a good amount of seating. read more

Cinnamon donut is delicious along with their house coffee, ideal start from the base of Mount CB

The newest coffee shop in town! This coffee trader is a very modern coffee shop, with lots of indoor seating making it the perfect spot to meet up with friends or make it your new study spot. They also have a little conference room where you can rent out for meetings or a private study area. They also have a drive thru. When I was here I got the Mexican mocha and it was super good. My friends got the strawberry banana smoothie and loved it! read more

Perfect cup of Joe and a nice local burrito to start the day! They also have local bagels & cream cheese, yummy muffins and doughnuts

This place is on the main floor of The Lodge at Mountaineer Square. Probably 100-150m from the lift so accessibility and location of this is a huge pro! I went a Saturday morning about 830am and the line was wrapped around the small store. There are a few small tables, so if you want to sit down and enjoy breakfast you may have to rethink that or snag the first one that becomes available. Despite the long line, it went relatively quick for being staffed by 2 people. Probably about 15 min spent in line. I got a plain cappuccino which had good flavor but pretty expensive for such a small cup. I also split a donut with my husband that was drizzled with chocolate and caramel. Everything you would expect/want in such a sugary treat. Overall, good but if you're an impatient or cheap person may reconsider. read more

Drinks were made fast and tasted great! I would recommend for anyone looking for a grab and go coffee.

Fabulous Coffee - Great Staff - Super Service. Thank you for bringing a bright smile to a wonderful place. Coffee is delicious and fast read more

Pretty unimpressed. First off, they had a guy who was training there working on a Saturday morning so just to get a simple coffee, it literally took 15 minutes after I waited in like for 20 minutes. The breakfast isn't made fresh there so you have to wait for them to heat it up in the microwave. The breakfast burrito was good but I would say you could get something for half the price at a grocery store and just heat it up. You don't have many options for when you need coffee in this area so I hope you go there at an off time? read more

Great lattes. The mocha and eggnog lattes were not that great. Kids loved the got chocolate. Breakfast bagel sandwiches were so good, hearty enough to carry us through 5 hours of skiing. read more

Great service and wonderful coffee. Also, tried their pistachio rose shortbread cookie. Holy cow, that was one of the best cookies!

Coffee is average at best. Seems to be constantly understaffed so lines take a long time. The Nell inside smells like sewage. Employees nice. Portions are below average. read more

Great place to start your day on the mountain. It's popular and usually staffed by one person so you have to be a bit patient at times. They have good quick breakfast options and hot drinks. Eating in can be tough since it's so small with only a few tables. It would help if patrons didn't "save" tables while they wait in line for 20 min when someone else could sit, eat, and be gone by the time their order was ready. But common courtesy is pretty much dead in our society these days, so carry on... read more

Stopped by for a cup of coffee before driving back to Denver. The barista was so nice! She let us try a taste before ordering and made our drinks fresh in front of us (not from a carafe). read more

Wonderful find! I had the chorizo and egg empanadas and my hubby had the burrito. Delicious! They have many healthy selections as well. Oatmeal, vegan etc. Also had a wonderful soy sugar free chai tea latte. Line was long with fast, friendly service. A great way to start the day! read more

A hidden summer treasure. Headed here on a holiday weekend instead of into town which had been overly crowded the past couple of days. But Coffee Lab ended up being a treat and not just an escape from the town crowds. Excellent coffee and really tasty breakfast burritos + a muffin to boot. Served by friendly staff in a really cool mountain cafe setting, with outdoor seating too. All the touches are great down to the custom ceramic plates and cups for to-stay orders. Strongly recommend. read more

It was just what we were looking for. Coffee in a real cup, yummy patties, family feel, and a great staff. Cute and tiny just the way i love my coffee shops. read more

Very good coffee and service. $2 drip line makes it quick and easy to grab a regular coffee. Hot chocolate is divine. We haven't had any pastries yet. They usually sell out of most of them by the time we get there. Breakfast sandwiches look hardy. read more

Brutal. 11am on a Sunday, place wasn't busy, Coffee dispenser was empty, had to wait for more to be brewed. Cream container empty. Counter dirty. The dude w/ the bald head was so slow and unpleasant. Took 17 minutes for our breakfast burritos, even though they were pre made and were heated in microwave. Will find a different place for coffee and breakfast next time in town. read more

Awesome place to study and/or wind down... they also have vegan muffins and a nice cold brew! They also have a punch card and the 11th coffee is free! read more

Sweet little place on Mt Crested Butte. We had a large order- 6 drinks and 5 breakfast sandwiches. No one complained. So I'll take that as a positive! Outdoor seating available also. Happy their hours go into the afternoon for a little pick me up. read more

Great service, very friendly baristas and cashiers. The coffee was delicious and out quickly. Will definitely be back to experience the "Coffee Lab" again! read more

No Recycling? Get with the times. No recycling for the plastic cups and still using plastic utensils. Had a cup of coffee that was meh and some bagels that were like sandwich bread. At least the service was friendly. read more

Check you receipts. We've been a few times this summer, earlier this summer we got charged for burritos we never ordered or received. This time we got charged for an extra shot of espresso when we ordered alternate milk instead....which means I got dairy and I'm lactose intolerant...it did NOT turn out well on the trails. If you don't get a receipt ask for one. We didn't realize these mistakes until I checked the receipts emailed later. In the case of the milk mistake I checked when I made it the base of my trail to confirm that my digestive issues were as I suspected. I'd like to think these are honest mistakes and not someone trying to make a few extra bucks. This is the only coffee shop up on Mt Crested Butte. I don't love the taste of the mocha, too much chocolate so maybe ask them to go light on the chocolate if a mocha is your go to drink. Wish I loved them, but I don't. Note to owner, please stress to employees how important it is to get orders correctly, you can ruin someone's day/vacation by getting something like milk or nut allergies wrong. Ugh, it was a long, awful morning on the trail. read more
