I stopped by on a weekday afternoon and opted for the raspberry donut, which was incredibly fresh and tasty. It was quite busy on this weekday afternoon. There was consistently a line, so I could tell it's a popular spot. Plenty of people inside sitting at tables and on their laptops too. I only saw street parking. Not sure what else is available in the area.

The breakfast sandwich (with sausage) was good - the bun it was on was super soft and a mismatch for the structured sandwich. It ended up being hard to eat. The Roman sandwich was ok but had too much cheese. Our coffee (drip and an oatmilk latte) were good. It was busy on a Tuesday morning at 8:30, we were lucky to get a table for two.

Tried this coffee shop a couple days ago and I absolutely loved the vibe. The seating area is…read morespacious, yet cozy at the same time--definitely a place I would consider visiting on a cold, dreary day. Cozy coffee shop vibe?: Check. But how is the coffee? I'm always a bit hesitant to order black coffee (my beverage of choice) when I'm out, due to the bitterness and acidity levels, but the coffee was surprisingly smooth here. Granted, I opted for the light roast, but it's all in the way it's brewed. Considering this is Pearl Street, where things can be a bit overpriced, the prices here were quite reasonable. Plus the service here is pretty great--super friendly. I'd definitely come back if I'm ever wandering around the area.

Stopped by this spot for a latte on a rainy day. I tried a seasonal pumpkin spice latte and thought…read moreit was very good! They have super good quality espresso which shines in coffee drinks. My barista was very nice and made good recommendations based on what I was looking for. The pumpkin spice flavor was great, overall what I expected. The outside looks small, but the interior is rather spacious with a lot tables for working on a laptop. The inside has 90s/early 2000s vibe with dim, ambience lighting. This is a super solid coffee spot that should be in your Boulder coffee rotation. Bonus - they offer goat milk as a milk alternative!

We were foiled in our attempt to get coffee at The Dairy Center, but this spot was quite close. The shop is a bit crowded with lots of round tables and a small amount of counter seating facing the outside windows. There's a wall of bookshelves stocked with reading material. There's also some outside seating. The staff was friendly, but it seemed to take an extremely long time to make my girlfriend's latte. We were both tired and a bit cranky, so perhaps we were impatient. It actually took about six minutes to make that one drink, after checking my notes. Hmmm. I don't know what they do when they get busy. My girlfriend reported that her latte was fine, so I guess that's the conclusion. Pretty average.

To me, this screams "coffee house" as opposed to a coffee shop. It reminds me of the tried and true neighborhood meet up spots for conversation, reading, and enjoying a good cup of coffee. I've popped in here numerous times over the years. Mostly for a to-go caffeine jolt before heading back to Denver. Coffee has always been solid, with an extensive menu of unique drinks. One day, I hope to spend more time sitting in the shop and appreciating the community vibes! 15 years going strong, they're clearly doing something right.

They are usually pretty busy but on a Wed afternoon, it wasn't busy at all. We got the Swedish Svamptoast and a Cream of Mushroom soup. Best part? The soup had no dairy in it! Huge win for me. I destroyed the Swedish Svamptoast in seconds, as the flavors of earthiness, tangy/citrus and the creaminess from goat cheese couldn't have melted more perfectly together. Always a great experience here.

That being said, do be aware that if you come on a hot day, it does get pretty stuffy in there. At least it was on the day that I went. The teas that I tried were yummy, but my favorites were the strawberry tea and the Lady Grey tea. The afternoon tea featured a variety of little sandwiches, pastries, and scones. It came with a jam, lemon curd and clotted cream for the scones. It was a lot of food so do go hungry. I made the mistaking of having a small lunch before this. The small sandwiches were so delicious! As well as the scones with the accompaniments. The cakes did not stand out to me in any way. If you're looking for a nice little afternoon tea with a friend, this would be a great place for that.

I loved going in the summertime because they would have the patio fully open, with fairy lights, and stay open pretty late. They were very friendly and dog-friendly in the back patio area. I've bought a book once that was by a local artist/limited there and loved it!

The menu was a bit overwhelming, but the barista Evan (from MA so GO Pats) was friendly and patient despite the line. I got the 3 Waves coffee -- espresso with coconut, caramel, and macadamia-nut. Now my new favorite that will be impossible to replicate anywhere but here. Also grabbed the Aloha sandwich -- ham, egg, cheese w/ pineapple and BBQ sauce. Definitely unusual but it works. Outdoor seating w/ fireplace and view of the Flatirons was a nice bonus Fun fact: the name Bad Ass Coffee comes from the donkeys used to carry coffee beans down the steep hills of Hawaiian forests. Ecstatic about this because I happen to love donkeys. Overall I'm intrigued by Bad Ass Coffee. A++
