They also have a really impressive variety beyond coffee, all kinds of teas (white, green, oolong, black), smoothies, Italian sodas, fresh lemonade, plus cookies and other baked stuff. It's a great option if you're with non-coffee drinkers. This weekend I went with a friend who doesn't drink coffee soI got my usual post-hike latte but she got a smoothie she loved so much she went back again the next day after our hike to get another one. The staff is friendly and the space is cute with eclectic, fun decor. During winter visits, we always try to grab the two sofa seats by the fireplace since it's such a cozy spot.

Kind coffee is my favorite coffee spot in Estes! First, the service is very great. Quick, clear and…read more- you guessed it - kind. The shop sits on Elkhorn Ave, kind of the Main Street of Estes. It has a front and back entrance, if you'd like to walk along the river to get there. There's a large public parking lot across the street as well. The barista made the cutest latte art for us! But it wasn't just appearance. The oat milk lattes were as delicious as they were beautiful! We tried some lattes at Inkwell yesterday, and Kind today. Kind was easily better, 10/10! It's a clean and cute shop. Good selection of coffee and breakfast and light lunch options. Also a small merch section - mugs, tees, coffee cups and canisters. We tried the salmon and cream cheese bagel with capers yesterday for lunch and they were great. My husband preferred the jalapeño cheddar bagel, while I was happy with the everything bagel. But the lattes were the real standout for me. The line was longest at lunch out of our visits, but it moved very quickly! The baristas were very welcoming and nice as well! Overall - Would definitely recommend!

As long-standing visitors of Estes Park, we've always gone to one particular coffee shop. Lately…read morethough, the coffee hasn't been as good and the wait has been way too long, so I decided to check out Coffee on the Rocks based on the positive reviews online and from people we know. It definitely did not disappoint. The coffee is top notch, an A+ in my book...and the speed at which they make it is also on point. I almost took away a star because during one visit they skipped forward through a Journey song, which is definitely a no-no for me, but I decided to let it slide... for now. They have a great selection of specialty lattes, and the deck ambience is hard to beat. You can feed the ducks, spot some deer, and just enjoy the wildlife along the river while you sip your coffee. We have for sure found our new coffee spot for our Estes Park visits going forward.

I'm pretty new to the world of coffee, so it was great to get helpful feedback on what to try. Both my drink and my wife's were amazing--fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. Mine came out at the perfect temperature for a chilly afternoon, which made it even better. One of the best parts of the visit was the park area behind the shop. It's a beautiful spot to unwind, take in the scenery, and just enjoy the quiet charm of the city. Sitting out there with great coffee made us fall even more in love with Estes Park. Highly recommend stopping here--whether you're a longtime coffee lover or just getting into it like me.

It's such a cute combo coffee + stationery store, and they have a really nice seating area upstairs. I stopped by again this weekend, got a latte, and it was delicious as usual. Took it upstairs and just relaxed for a bit with my friend, perfect post-hike vibe. I was here back in September too and noticed they've upgraded the upstairs seating since then, so it feels even nicer and more refreshed now. Always consistent, always a great stop when I'm in Estes Park.

I also found the coffee to be excellent; I could tell they take their brewing seriously, and I really appreciated the high quality of the beans. However, I was a bit disappointed with the food. I ordered a pastry, and I found it to be fairly mediocre, which was frustrating given that I thought it was very expensive for the quality. My overall takeaway is that I found the experience to be a bit pricey for what I actually received. While I definitely recognized the quality of the coffee, the cost of the food didn't quite line up for me.

Incredible and cute tea shop! Come here for some great quality and real tea…read more I was exploring the shops around Downtown Estes on this windy, winter Monday when I came upon this tea shop. I had to check it out and I'm thankful I did! They have quite a variety of teas, yet not an overwhelming amount. I decided to go with their number 1 option, the Rocky Mountain High tea. A sweet, fruity blend of ingredients. She brewed it right then and there. The owner is very knowledgeable of her products, real friendly and welcoming just like this whole town. Most of the top teas add a hint of Rocky Mountain flare to then; they include some ingredients that are associated with these mountains. Prices are great, the service was top notch, and this has to be the best tea shop in town. You are able to purchase tea by the bag as gifts. Next time I'm in Estes Park, I'll be coming back here.
