We live in Denver and Dry Storage alone is enough of a reason to go to Boulder. Most recently we stopped by after a hike. What can I say? We love dry storage for the sweet marriage of Japanese fare with sourdough & laminated pastries. Where else could you get an amazing croissant breakfast sandwich alongside fresh onigiri and be so glad you tried both?? The coffee here is excellent as well, and we love browsing some of the curated offerings on their floating shelves. If you enjoy making your own sourdough, do not pass up the yecora rojo flour. It makes the best sourdough. If not, make sure to take home a sourdough loaf. There is seating inside and outdoors at multiple picnic benches. Service is friendly and prompt. Lastly, keep an eye out for seasonal pop events! We haven't been able to go yet but def want to.
Great bread, pastries and coffee. This is a hidden gem. I try to go by Dry Storage whenever I am in Boulder. Some of my favorite have been the chive danish that was savory and delicious and the heavenly apple pecan danish.
Such a gem of a place!! From the vibes to the drinks to the food, everything was so unique and well done. The staff here are really the sweetest, they really take care of every customer and want you to have the best experience. Highlights for the menu: the ochazuke is SO good and comforting and the chocolate chip cookies are TO DIE FOR. The fizzy matcha and espresso yuzu drinks were also so so good! But truly you cannot go wrong with anything.
I'm so glad I got to try Dry Storage at the Boulder farmers market near Pearl Street. I got this apricot danish and it was so so good. The pastry was super flaky, the custard was light and not too sweet, the apricot filling wasn't too overwhelming, and the apricots on top were so sweet and fresh. It also looked beautiful, I love how they added the flowers
A tucked away cafe underneath an apartment complex. It's cozy inside and has a lot of natural light. They charge 1% of your order total for zero foodprint which I didn't really know what that meant. There was also a 5% service fee that was more about what it covered (insurance costs and livable wages). Apple pecan swirl ($6.50) - super crispy and flakey. There was some apple crumble inside. The pastry wasn't too sweet. Croissant Sando - the sausage and egg tamago was very good. There was gochujang so it felt like a fusion of Japanese and Korean. The latte ($4.50) was a decent latte.
Located off Arapahoe, in the Peloton neighborhood, Dry Storage is a great spot for lunch or breakfast The place is not very big, with just a few tables inside and outside, but each time I visited, they seemed to do a lot of takeout, and there was plenty of room for eating on-site. Service is friendly and the food delicious!
Very tasty pizza and salad and onagiri. Nice outdoor patio seating area as well. Kind of in a hidden location.
I am always looking for a good baguette, which is SOOO difficult in Boulder!! I was disappointed so many times after reading the good reviews on Yelp. I finally found one - Babette's in Longmont. I used to get a couple of baguette every week. But change in my schedule and the distance made it impossible. Now I found this place. It was hard to determine how good their baguette was without photos of sliced baguette. One day, finally tried their baguettes. They had the good consistency inside and out. But we are not the big fans of sourdough. It was just a bit too sour. But what an interesting menu! Onigiri and Japanese breakfast! But the onigiri gu is nothing common in Japan. If I had more open mind, I would have tried it. But it so so easy to make at home. We will stay with the baguette!
So nice and relaxing but very small inside, just a few tables. What attracted me was their Japanese inspired menu items including their matcha latte, which was great! It wasn't too sweet and they only have oat milk as a non-dairy alternative which is fine but would have liked almond milk. It did come with a cute latte art, which I was not expecting. It wasn't too busy on a Saturday morning but they did have steadily flow of customers coming and going. It was a bit hard to find because it's "hidden" in a residential/commercial plaza and the signs were not very obvious. I tried their cheese pizza since it was literally the only savory item they had plus it was the last piece. I asked if that was the last piece and the cashier said yes. It fluffy on the inside and crunchy on the crust made of sourdough. It taste even better when it's heated. What disappointed me was after eating my pizza they brought out a new batch of pizza, which the cashier did not tell me even though I asked. I would have liked fresh made pizza rather than them trying to sell me the last pizza for who knows how long it's been sitting there. I also didn't see any of kimchi pizza which they posted on their website. I also bought a croissant muffin which is a bit deceiving because there is literally just a small amount of cream on top. Other than that, it was nothing special and I would not order that again. I was told by the staff that their Farmers Market booth would have more choices and speciality pastries but when we got there they only had sweet pastries. They were not leftover either since they had stacks for pastries. I'd probably go back when I'm in the mood for good sourdough pizza.
Great cafe! The drinks were good especially the matcha latte! The chai is sweetened so if you don't like sugar in your drink that's something to know. They had a special of vegetarian biscuits and gravy. It was really delicious! I love how everything is scratch made here. We went in the afternoon before closing, they were sold out of everything in the pastry counter. Service was quick and they have nice indoor and outdoor seating. Would highly recommend
Dry Storage, Dry Storage, Dry Storage... You saved my day & the weekend! Stopped into this cuuuute (yes, all the extra u's are needed) boutique of a coffee & bakery shop for bread, then walked out with their seasonal pizza and pear espresso tonic! YUM A ROO - to all decisions made. As advised, I heated up the pizza on a sheet pan when I got home. It came out crispy n' chewy. I kept craving more and more bites! The loaf of bread, a classic sourdough number, was a huge hit with friends and family! A "this is the best sourdough" may have been thrown around once or twice. ;) The pear tonic (while a little pricey) was an instant hit to me, myself and my need for a refreshing caffeinated beverage! Would I order again? Yes. Finally, the service at Dry Storage was kind, patient and friendly. It was my first time in so I was sort of a deer in head lights -- unsure what direction to go with my order. You know. The guys never made me feel rushed and answered all my questions about their products! Really appreciated that. If I'm ever rolling by again... it'll be hard to not stop in and pick up some more baked goodies!
Wow! As both a baker and half Asian who sometimes dearly misses being able to have an Asian, savory breakfast here in Boulder, I feel like I just hit the jackpot. Great range of artisan flours, available in bulk 50lb sizes as well. Wonderful food (from pastries to excellent congee) and drink menu (from coffee, tea to sale and wine). A new, somewhat hidden gem in Boulder!

I loved this spot! I got a bow with fish for breakfast with a matcha latte and both were fantastic. The bowl (don't remember the name) was very unique and I loved the flavor. The place is on the pricier side but it's also good for sitting with friends or doing some work. read more

I was a big fan of the ambiance. The latte I got was good, but the chocolate croissant was disappointing. It lacked any flavor in the dough. It was crunchy but tasteless. The chocolate itself was not very good as well. The tables are also a bit small to do work on. read more

Great ambiance. Sat outside in the shade with a view of the flatirons. The iced matcha with lavender was perfect my balanced and refreshing. The egg salad onigiri and mushroom onigiri were both great! Very nice staff! read more

We were recommended this spot from a friend for coffee and a bite to eat. I had an espresso and it's not usually my go to, because sometimes it can be hit or miss at some cafes. It was surprisingly delicious, they have it dialed in. We also tried the smoked trout onigiri, fish board, and pizza by the slice. I loved the fish board. The bread was delicious and the salted butter was amazing. Would love to come to back here and try a sandwich. Staff was friendly and there was a lot of seating indoor and outside. Lots of cute items in the merchandise area like tinned fish and smoked salts. I loved it. read more

They of the better matchas i have had in the area. Seems like they have a bunch of freshly baked pastries and breads. m Can't wait to try more! Great ambiance too! read more

This place is fantastic. Coffee, food, ambience... the croissant was among the best I ever had. Bought some of their flour for myself and my dad, who loves to bake. Really do think it's the best quality flour I've ever used. Strange location, but kinda like that; adds to the mystery. Only downside is it's small inside and seats fill up fast. read more

This is one of the best coffee shops I've ever been to. Becoming a regular here is one of the things I'm most excited about when I move to Boulder. The seasonal latte I had here was fantastic -- flavorful and nuanced -- and the whole milk foam was like nothing I had ever experienced before; it had the thickness and creaminess of whipped cream. Natalie, Luke, and Kate were friendly, kind, and knowledgable about the coffee as well as the insanely delicious, in-house artisanal pastries. The shop also sells thoughtfully curated dry goods from around the country (think jams, sauces, etc.). On a second visit, I had their onigiri and baguette, both of which were outstanding. I'm not sure what else to say. If you're in the area and you appreciate fine coffee and pastries, please do yourself a favor and pay Dry Storage a visit. (Based on a couple visits in December 2021) read more

Can't say enough good things about this bakery. The head chef personally greeted us and treated us like friends because the chef from Basta told him that we were visiting from his home town. It doesn't get better than that in terms of hospitality. The chef also took the time to explain how they mill their own flour. You can tell that they care passionately about the quality and sustainability of their products. The croissants and cookies were perfect and amazing- buttery, shattery goodness. I loved the yuzu espresso tonic as well. It was perfect for a hot day. The chef gifted us a masa tea cake and it was the best tea cake I've ever tasted. We are bummed that we live so far away from Dry Storage, otherwise we would be regular customers. read more

Best bakery in Boulder. A hidden gem tucked away in a small space. Love the bakery square pies made with seasonal ingredients. More expensive than typical places, but worth the price for the high quality. read more

Was up in Boulder over the weekend and Sunday morning was dreary. Coffee was needed!!! Hopped into Yelp and found Dry Storage! Yelp for the win!!! Super super cool and chic inside. Simple breakfast menu but lots of good looking items! Got a cookie for little man, I got an onigiri with smoked fish -- seasoning was fiyah!!! Wifee snagged a spicey chai and I got a matcha latte. Service was prompt and sweet, inside was clean and well spread out (we took it togo). Def want to go back and try other items such as the salmon toast and some of their bread!!! Fiyah. read more

Excellent food. Great location in Boulder. It's at the end of an apartment complex. Food was excellent. Get the breakfast sandwich and add sausage. Also get any of the treats. We had the pumpkin apple croissant and it was to die for. I was full allllll day long. Highly recommend. Prices on the high side but it's worth it. read more

Where is it? Do they not even have a sign? I drove by twice and couldn't see it. Waste of my time.
It's part of the residential complex. From Arapahoe you have to turn north on 38th then left onto exposition, immediate left into the complex, then left again into the parking lot. You'll see it to your right from there. The sign is pretty small.…
