    Wow what an amazing place and view! This adorable coffee shop had it all. Friendly Baristas, excellent coffee, the best cinnamon roll I've ever tasted in my life! I just wish I had more time to spend there. Alas, I was on a Rocky Mt. tour and we only stopped for a little while. If I'm ever in town again this will be my first stop.

    Cute local bakery with awesome vibes and occasional live music. I really liked grabbing a beer and some pastries to enjoy on the patio. My friend and I got the kouin amann (hopefully I'm spelling it right) and it really is something special: super crispy and just the right amount of sweet. Would highly recommend!

    A review is a only as good as the person how has experience in what they are reviewing. I am a world traveling bakery experiencer. In my 30+ year of trying bakeries and sour doughs and croissants I have to say this place is outstanding. Lyons itself is very relaxed, mountain town vibes. If you are familiar with California it's very Topanga Canyon, if you are familiar with Mexico it's very Tulum vibes. It's a beauty welcoming earthy bakery as a bakery should be. And delicious which is the most important.

    Flat white and cinnamon croffin.

    Excellent flat white - I mean really excellent. Cinnamon croffin was the perfect accompaniment. Cute coffee shop and good vibe inside and Lyons makes for a really good stop-off on the way to Estes Park.

    Moxie Dark Rye Bread
    John H.

    Let me say right away that this review is specifically for Moxie's Dark Rye Bread, NOT Moxie Bread Company in general, which I truly like very much-- lovely people, wonderful space, and the majority of baked goods are quite fine. The Dark Rye loaf itself is particularly small-ish whose straight sidewall measured exactly 2-5/8" tall, yet the heft of the loaf in its entirety can not be believed! When handed to me at checkout, my hand fell to the counter. It is as if the bakers have placed a black hole in the mix of each loaf, the weight of a thousand loaves in each one. Simply put and all joking aside, this is bar-none the heaviest bread per sq. in. I have ever had. The crust is not just hard, it was so impenetrable with our bread knife, I had to use a frighteningly sharp steak knife (with teeth a great white shark would be jealous of) to hack through the body. Before purchasing this Dark Rye Bread, I had no misconception that Moxie's Dark Rye is not a classic European-style rye bread, even though the description on the wall stated as much. Filled with pepitas & sunflowers, this hippie-dippie version harks back fondly to my days growing up in Woodstock, NY. If you're looking for a Jewish Rye with bountiful pops of carraway, or any other style of traditional rye bread found in the best bakeries, you'll have to look elsewhere. Without that wonderful combination of a distinctive hard crust and a supple elastic inner texture, this bohemian rustic rye seemingly from days of antiquity is a different animal altogether. I will say that If you're skilled enough to slice a thin piece that can fit in your toaster, you will be rewarded with a super tasty treat when slathered with butter. I just wish the overall experience was worth the pricey mini-loaf. One final disclosure, my partner thought that this particular loaf was possibly burnt. I agree it may have been slightly over done, but not by much past the intent, which is why I have included a color & exposure-corrected photo (~2/3 of the loaf length shown) for everyone to make their own judgement.

    This place had affordable pricing. They have fresh baked goods. They do have a nice cafe type seating area and an outdoor area, too. You order at the register and they give the food to you. If you want something quick to eat and are running low on time, this is the spot to go to. Got the Jerusalem bagel here, and it hit the spot. They give you a choice between butter and cream cheese. Had it without either of those. The butter pecan toffee cookie was fresh and good. They serve a variety of nonalcoholic drinks here, too.

    This is cute spot to get coffee and a pastry in Lyons. Definitely hippie vibes! There are candles, incense, crystals and other things for sale. I ordered an almond milk pumpkin spice latte, and it seemed to have been made with real pumpkin. There is ample seating inside. In addition to coffee and tea, this place sells beer and wine. They also have kombucha on tap. There are loaves of bread, and yummy pastries as well. I didn't get a pastry, this time but they looked great! I didn't see any gluten-free pastries when I was there. This would be a good place to stop before a hike for snacks and drinks. Check it out next time you're in the area!

    $2.00 upcharge for oat milk. Croissants are good but they won't heat them unless you ask.

    On our way to hike Gem Lake, we needed some food before and found this place. It was a Saturday…read more(6/21/25) and the line was to the door, but we were committed and wanted to get on the trail. Took about 15 minutes to get the order and then another 15 minutes to get it, but worth it. We got breakfast and the burrito was not too heavy to hike 4+miles on. The artwork is cool at this place, but it was small. We took it to go and my friend enjoyed his bagel and coffee.

The breakfast sandwich was good and came with exactly what I asked for in it. The best part of the experience was the service. This young woman helped me and I heard her for roughly 45 minutes while I ate. She had a great attitude, a smile on her face the entire time, and handled the fact that they were short one person like a champ. Even though they were slammed, she never changed her smile, tone, or attitude. I was very impressed. The space was eclectic with some very fun decor. The outdoor patio was unusable as people were smoking, which was disappointing. The reason I gave 4 instead of 5 stars was due to the man making the food/drinks. I stood at the counter and watched him make drinks for at least 10 customers after me before even starting my breakfast sandwich. It was disappointing to wait through customers behind me to eat.

We needed some sandwiches to bring…read morewith us into the park to give us energy for a day of hiking, and this place delivered perfectly. We ordered two different kinds of sandwiches, and both were absolutely phenomenal. The flavor was completely on point, everything was so fresh, and they make it right in front of you. The deli is run by a super cute couple, and you can tell how much care they put into their business. We happened to visit during the shoulder season, so luckily the line wasn't very long. However, I've heard from others that this place is super popular, and during the peak summer season, there is usually a line waiting right out the door, and after eating here, I can totally see why! In fact, we loved it so much that we tried to go back the very next day, but unfortunately, they were closed (they are closed two days of the week, so be sure to check their hours!). I highly recommend stopping by Scratch Deli and Bakery. It is a must-visit spot, and we will definitely be back the next time we are in town!

All of their meats are cured in house and served on their fresh baked bread each day. They are vegetarian friendly and offer vegan and gluten free options. They also offer breakfast items like burritos. Be aware their sandwiches are loaded with ingredients and big. I could only eat half of my sandwich. I do appreciate the size though as you never know how hungry you are going to be after a long hike especially in this altitude. We went with the turkey sandwich and added cheese, all kinds of toppings and a spread. These sandwiches were very tasty and all the veggies on the sandwich were so fresh. Their baked goods looked so inviting especially the cinnamon rolls. I will have to come back! Service was efficient and helpful. Parking can be a bit of a challenge when they are busy. It was the perfect stop before entering the park!
