We stopped here because we wanted a smoothie. We weren't sure if they had them so we asked an employee there. He said they had them so we waited in line for a half an hour, got to the front where we ordered and then they told us they did not have them. they didn't seem to care that they had told us they had them and we waited in line as long as we did. One employee who seem to be the main manager there (Colt) said "times are changing." Like, is that supposed to mean something?? read more

Terrible service. Not clean, would literally never go here if it was the last place open.

This is the local favorite in vail. I really recommend their chai tea latte. It's super sweet and the perfect sugar rush and energy boost to get back on the slopes. They even serve sandwiches till 1pm. They have delicious, fresh baked and flaky croissants. You can substitute your sandwich bread for a croissant and pay only a buck extra for the bread upgrade. It's bit hidden. You have to go to the from vail entrance near the main bridge. It's the first shop you will see when you walk through the bridge. It's down the stairs next to the vail gift shop. read more

Fast and friendly service, delicious and filling burritos and hot coffee to start the day.

Convenient coffee shop and cafe beside our hotel--got a quick BLT and chips, which was good. Ladies working seemed to know the locals or the regulars, had their drinks already making when they saw them walking in. Several places to sit and work or chat with couches and tables available. read more

Yummy açaí bowls and coffee. Love the spanish coffee the most. Cute outdoor seating and lots of options for coffee and breakfast sandwiches etc. read more

This spot is a little different than the location in Avon. This one is more of a grab and go spot. We liked the breakfast sandwiches and the coffee is really good. They have a few tables outside so we could enjoy the creek while we had our coffee. read more

I saw the sign for this place every time I walked into the village. I finally went in on my last day at Vail after a stupid injury prevented me from snowboarding any more that day. I was looking for a place to chill and drink hot chocolate so I went in here thinking it was a Starbucks-like coffee shop. Wrong! It was more like a mini hipster bar that happens to serve coffee. Minimal bar stool seating. Sports playing on the tv. Instead of ordering something to drink, for some reason, I ended up getting a turkey club. Ten dolla sandwich?? Aiya! I wasn't even hungry. I was sort of expecting a typical sandwich, but it was actually pretty good. Came with bacon and guac! It had too much Dijon mustard, which overpowered the other flavors. Tell them to lighten up or just don't add it. It'll still be tasty. read more

Came in on a Friday evening. Centrally located coffee shop in vail village. It has a nice ambiance. I ordered a flavored latte and it was alright, nothing special. The reason for the bad review is because of the barista/cashier. She was very blunt and unfriendly. She seemed really impatient, we were trying to figure out what to order since it was our first time. Will try out other coffee shops in the area. read more

Very friendly wait staff (and patient!). Nice setting, of course, it is Vail. I had the Spanish Coffee as it was a popular tip and I wasn't disappointed read more

Stopped here for a coffee and a breakfast sandwich before a day of skiing. The breakfast sandwich was really good and just what I needed to fuel me for the morning. Bonus is that it's on the way from parking to the village - just before the foot bridge. read more

I went to the old location and thought they closed! But they relocated to the old Starbucks across the bridge (sign on the door would have been very helpful!!!). So I was extremely happy when I went to get coffee at Starbucks and found loaded joes. Same great coffee and breakfast spot but with a facelift! The inside is beautiful. This place is great for a quick coffee and breakfast sandwich before hitting the slopes. read more

I grabbed a mocha to go today, and it was delicious. I don't usually feel compelled to review such a singular purchase, but it just was so good. It took maybe 5ish minutes, but it tasted like it was made with love. Seemed like a cute spot for a snack too :) read more

My friend and I were really likes this place. so good. I got their Cubano sandwich and their chai tea latte and it was fire the hot sauce that they have too is delicious too. If you're looking for a quick lil meal and coffee I recommend this place. (I got too excited to take a picture of the sandwich so just got alittle shot of the tea) read more

Its tucked away behind a wall and some steps, but it's worth finding. Good coffee and breakfast sandwiches. It's tiny so you may need to get it to go. But it's a good bet if you are staying nearby and can't bear Keurig coffee from the grimy machine in your room. There's booze too, so cap your night here! Looks like it might be a nice place for locals. They've got shot glasses on the wall set aside for the regulars. read more

Great locals spot! Pizza is delicious and I love the cozy atmosphere. If you want local Pizza in Vail grab a seat at Local Joes and enjoy. read more

Good coffee, convenient location, and nice ambiance - exactly what I needed while waiting for my bus.

Visited this coffee place for the first time today and it was well worth the stop! Staff was super friendly and the coffee was spot on. Roast was smooth and shots were perfect. Seating outside right by the river. Go ahead and forego your trip to Sta*bucks and support local businesses! read more

I've been to Vail hundreds of times and never had the need for a coffee shop like this until I couldn't ski. Loaded Joe's is a big improvement to the Starbucks that used to be in this location. Their coffee is all freshly made and I enjoyed their cappuccino a lot. Considering the area, the pricing is very reasonable. The coffee drinks range from $3-$6 and their food $7-$13. Although I didn't try any of the food, I heard other customers saying that they loved their food. They have simple breakfast options and sandwiches perfect for a healthy meal before skiing or enjoying Vail. The staff is friendly and very quick to serve your coffee or food. They have free, secured WiFi, you just have to ask for the password. I do wish there was more seating available inside. There are 3 bar height tables, one small bar area, and 4 cozy chairs. If you find a seat, it's a great place to hang out! I'd love to try it out aprés ski for the bar in the future! read more

The fact that this coffee shop still opens at 9pm (and until 2am) in Vail deserves some credit. The staff is super chill and friendly, we didn't get to try the smoothies because they ran out of the ingredients, it's a busy weekend at Vail, so that's understandable. We ended up ordering the chai latte and soy latte. Soy latte was smooth and not very strong but that's good for me, however, the chai latte was very sweet and some might say, too sweet. We also ordered a cinnamon roll, but it didn't have a great taste, it's just buttery. Overall experience was good, so it's a four star for quick service and convenience, would come back for another time to try the rest. read more

See all

The sandwiches are not customizable. The coffee drinks on the menu and loaded with sugar. They have no sugar free syrups. The açaí is pre-made. This place isn't very fresh. read more

Oh me oh my we went here yesterday on our tour of Vail. There was some sort of festival going on and we stopped by. At first it seemed like your typical run of the mill place... but don't let the size of cafe fool you. Order the chicken fingers they are spiced very well and the fries were amazing. Get the BBQ sauce, honey mustard, and ranch. Hope and pray that the same woman working in the back is there. read more

The new location is open! Easier access, a nice outdoor patio, and much bigger inside. Still wish there were more tables inside. Great upgrade though! read more

A must stop in Vail! Seriously, I cannot drive through or stay in Vail without having my daily dose of Loaded Joe's. So delicious. The Milky Way is perfect in the summer, and still just as great in the winter. read more

The açaí bowl was great and was made fast. I came in the off season, so I'm not sure if it's always that fast, but I definitely would return! read more

We ordered creamy mac & cheese and got EZ mac or so it tastes. It was obviously packaged. We also ordered hummus and it tasted like Sabra. We had guacamole that tasted like it came from a tube. None of the food is made by hand unfortunately. That said the veggie wrap tasted good despite prepackaged stuff. I did not try coffee which is probably why this place has better reviews. The seating area outside is right on the water, it's awesome. read more

Zero I mean zero stars is what this establishment deserves. It's December 20 20 how hard is it at this point to wear a mask and gloves when you're serving customers. Dude behind the bar just goes ahead and makes your bagel with no mask, one glove ... for real? Completely unsanitary and rude. I mean come on. This is Vail - get yer sh!t together. read more

Very bad service. Both workers did not greet us, nor were friendly. I do not recommend at all. read more

Smoothie was decent and coffee was good! Burrito was pretty sad... piled a bunch of pre-cooked stuff (and pre-cooked eggs weird me out a bit!) on a tortilla and microwaved it. Friend said "wouldn't be surprised if I had grabbed this at a gas station, but it's basically bad airplane food." Likely wouldn't go out of my way to go again. read more

I have never been to a local coffee shop that is that unfriendly. The guy running the espresso machine was nothing but an "a@hole". When customers are asking questions about drinks they are asking to get information and to be educated not treated like crap or spoken down to! I always look to support the local coffee shops wherever I go but I will never go to this one again. See you tomorrow Starbucks ! Mia read more

Back again! This time for a breakfast burrito which was hot and delicious. Chose the veggie with chipotle ketchup. The bomb!

I kept meaning to come here for a coffee and a breakfast in the AM, but it never happened for whatever reason. What we did get to enjoy here were 3pm beers, green tea, and espessos. Not to mention one of the best BLT sandwiches I've tasted in recent memory. read more

Everything on the menu was so yummy and the food was served super fast. The staff is very friendly. I love the vibe in there. I wish I was a local just for this place! read more

5 stars across the board. Great food and great coffee along with great music. Trust me, I am a very hard critic when it comes to coffee and breakfast. Chicken tenders are also a must. read more

Vail is a small skiing town in Colorado just about 100 miles east of Denver. Make sure you park in the parking garage just past the two "roundabouts" from the off ramp(there's absolutely NO parking near Loaded Joes). I wanted to stop somewhere that wasn't a McDonald's or Taco Bell, AND also had good coffee. After an hour of driving, "Loaded Joes" was the spot we picked and I am quite satisfied with our decision. It's located in a small room down a slightly lower level on Bridge St. There's was a lovely young woman(working completely solo!) taking orders and making breakfast burritos & sandwiches. I ordered a drip French Roast and was very well pleased on how fresh the coffee tasted. I also ordered a "Loaded Burrito" and my wife a poppyseed bagel with peanut butter. The food & coffee(not to mention the great attitude of the barista, working totally alone) put me in such great mood that I also paid for a root beer and peanut butter cookie on the way out. I hope tons of people go to LOADED JOES and it stays open a long time. I'll come back whenever I pass thru Vail. read more

I stopped in for a cappuccino after skiing. It had a great flavor (and they drew a little heart on top!). The price was a bit expensive (but this is to be expected for Vail) - $3.25 for a small (8oz). The only downside to this place is that it is always busy inside and there is limited room for standing or sitting. I wish the place was a little bigger and had more seating so I could sit down somewhere to enjoy my coffee! read more

They do a nice job - excellent coffee - decent food - fairly efficient service and a great convenient location

Worst experience ever on 12/29! There was a very rude male staff member preparing food items. I watched him make my food with no gloves abs his mask down around his neck, huffing and puffing and offering curt responses to customers. As much as I like to support small businesses, I will never step foot in this place again. And I will be sure to spread the word. If you want a good cup of coffee in Vail Village go to Yeti's Grind. They are way more responsible and friendly than the staff at Loaded Joe's. read more

Needed a quick bite before our shuttle left and our ski rental place suggested Loaded Joes. Super impressed by the drinks and the food and pretty reasonably priced for Vail. We had the turkey sandwich and the chicken trendies and both were incredibly delicious! Also best chai tea latte I've ever had!!! We also got to sit outside and enjoy the nice Colorado air!! Great lunch spot! read more
