    We were headed towards aspen and we stopped by the coffee and tea place that was definitely cute. I had the spicy chai and dear god it was most fantastic spicy hit that hit me like no chai has ever hit me. The place is an absolute fun little hang out. Both the ladies at the counter were super kind Service was great. A little fun casual hang out.

    Great coffee and breakfast spot! It's on the creek and they have the loveliest outdoor patio over looking the beautiful running creek. Coffee was delicious. They have a variety of homemade bagels daily as well as breakfast sandwiches and smoothies. Dogs allowed outside.

    Service was great! Our vegetarian burrito and lily pad Sammie were Yummy. They were also super dog friendly! Great ambiance sitting on the patio off the creek!

    Breakfast burrito

    This is the second time we've stayed overnight in town and after enjoying a breakfast burrito from here the previous time, I knew I needed to try it again. The line is almost always pretty long, but the staff is fast and friendly. We placed our order and sat on the cozy couch by the front window while we waited. About ten minutes later the chorizo breakfast burrito came out piping hot as they make it on demand as opposed to pulling them out of a warmer. I wrapped it in a coffee cup holder due to how hot it was and waited a few minutes to let it cool before devouring it. It is a little bit of a wait if you're in a hurry, but worth it for one of the top notch breakfast burritos I've enjoyed in my life.

    Cute coffee shop. We stopped in early on a Saturday morning, it was crowded!! We were on our way to Denver airport so we were a little nervous about the line and how long it was taking, but it worked out fine! Obviously the line was because they have great coffee! Unfortunately we couldn't stick around to eat but the shop was very charming and the river out back was lovely! I would've loved to sit outside with my coffee and read by the river if we'd had the time. Will definitely be back when in town. Plenty of parking, reasonable prices.

    Vegetarian breakfast burrito

    We love a good local coffee shop! They have hot breakfast choices as well as bakery items so it was so hard to choose!! They also have lattes and other types of drinks. We ended up buying a bag of coffee beans to bring home so I can't wait to try it! But I didn't get a chai tea latte while there and a vegetarian breakfast burrito. My fiancé got a latte, bacon breakfast burrito, and a banana bread loaf. We took our breakfast out to the back where there are tables set along the water. My chai was yummy. I really enjoyed my breakfast burrito. It was a good size - not too big and not too small. It had potatoes, eggs, green chile, and cheese in it. It was delicious!! I love the charm. They had mugs, stickers, t-shirts you can buy. and they had live music of a guy with a guitar on a Saturday morning. Fun!

    Such a cute local coffee shop! Wonderful atmosphere and delicious coffee. You can spend some time there working on your laptop or just grab coffee to go. It checks all the boxes with lots of menu options, friendly service, and easy parking. They also have some local items for sale if you are looking for a souvenir. Highly recommend checking it out!

    Absolutely loved this coffee shop, with modern vibes and a great patio. They have lots of breakfast options that are simple as well as any coffee you can imagine. They definitely are popular so don't come in a rush! But, if you're coming to enjoy the beautiful rushing water while you enjoy a delicious cup of coffee, and see some friendly faces around, this is the place to be.

    Having a matcha at this location made my entire morning! They had such a great selection of coffee, tea, breakfast, pastries, and desserts. There is a stunning patio overlooking the creek where I had my matcha latte. It is connected to a walking trail that has breathtaking views as you go along.

    Nutty Professor Latte with Apple Cinnamon Bagel

    Updating my review based on a recent visit. I had the Nutty Professor latte which was amazing and hands down the best apple cinnamon bagel to go with. My husband liked his vanilla latte, pumpkin muffin and plain bagel as well. Definitely redeemed my review with this visit.

    Cute little place with a variety of teas. Inside is quite cozy. The servers are very nice.

    Obsessed with everything about Red Buffalo! Ambulance, customer service, drinks and food! Makes working much more enjoyable when I get to hang there and meet other locals. We even had a pretty wedding ceremony coffee stop here!

I was surprised to find three of hergé's classic tintin which are not that popular in the US. This is the tintin who is a Belgian iconic hero who delighted kids all over the world last century. If you are more into games they have kino, mancala, scrabble and more. This morning Jonathan (who I later found out is one of the owners) was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. I wanted to buy some beans for pour over coffee and he walked me through the various offerings. He picked a honey mountain which I am eager to try when I get home.

    The current rating of barely 3.5 stars certainly didn't look promising and yet after browsing the…read morephotos posted by the previous diners, I got a conviction that this place might be more than the mediocre rating. I thus proceeded my way to the store to try it out. And I didn't regret a bit. It was a slow high noon lunchtime for this quaint shop. When I stepped in there was only one person inside (and he soon left) so all of a sudden I had the whole place to myself! The lady upfront warmly received me with a nice smile. She let me take my time after I had said "I think I will need a minute." At this time, I was already impressed. Not only the kind welcoming greeting by the lady, the showcase to display all the baked goods to the adorable interior to the store merchandise to the selection of the gelato to the little refrigerator to hold prepackaged goods, this store was definitely way more than 3.5 stars. As I was browsing, the two salads in the mini (clear) refrigerator caught my attention so I inquired about them. Both the Chickpea and Roma Pasta Salads were only $6. I was like "Yup, I am getting them!" I definitely needed one (sweet) bakery item so I went with the Bread Pudding with Almond Cream Cheese. This place is not much of a tea place however. I thought I was going to get an iced tea or something but whereas they do have tea lattes they don't make simple teas (hot or cold) is what I heard from the lady. No worries on that. I hence went with a hot Americano. This ended up being the right choice as I would need something a bit stronger than a simple tea so I would be able to stay awake on the road to get back to Denver after the strenuous runs at Keystone resort. She did ask me if I wanted my bread pudding be warmed up to which I said yes. She then put everything in a brown bags and carefully placed a little container of half and half on top of everything which she warmed me about if tipped off it might spill a bit so she said to be careful. I certainly wasn't expecting this kind of above-and-beyond-ness; service here thus is top-notch. She saw me off with the same warm smile as I walked away from it. As soon as I back to my car, I started my little lunchtime. And I tell you, EVERYTHING i got today was more than satisfactory. Both salads were exceptionally made (I especially liked the Chickpea one.) The Bread Pudding had a nice texture with the perfect sweetness. And it was a good portion as well. My Americano was nice and steamy. And the side half and half she gave me was more than enough. This experience was way more than I had expected in so many different ways. So in conclusion, True Blue is very much under-appreciated. Hence, by writing this review, I am spreading the love I have for this store to the entire state of Colorado. People, go here if you are in Silverthorne/Dillon/Keystone area; this is a gem!

    I had very high expectations for this restaurant coming into it because all of the places I've had…read morein Silverthorne have been amazing; both with food and hospitality. This place missed every single mark. Our food took almost an hour to come out and parts of it was cold. Hubbys pancake was hard (not crispy hard, like heat lamp hard) and one of the items on my plate was a completely cold, unbuttered English muffin. The eggs were cooked wrong (I ordered over medium and they were barely over easy with tons of runny white still and hubby ordered hard scrambled and they were scrambled and runny still), and our waiter stopped in to fill water cups once but did not check in or ask how we were while we were waiting. I'm typically pretty easy going -- I understand mistakes are made sometimes. That is easily redeemable if the service is good; but the service was not. Our server made it seem like we were an inconvenience. 1026 - we got the text our table was ready. We requested a booth (and mentioned we would wait longer got a booth) but got a table. Okay fine, it happens 1038 - we finally had a server ask if we want something to drink. We ordered drinks and it was at least 10 more minutes before they came to take our order. Our order was submitted and it was nearly 45 minutes for the (cold) food to come out. During the wait we were not checked on at all. No one asked us if we were good or needed anything-- or let us know the food was delayed. When the food finally came (again, cold) it was dropped at the table and it was another 15 mins before our server even acknowledged us again. The lady who helped him drop the food was nicer than he was, and asked if we needed anything else; while he couldn't be bothered. We are walking out now at 1140. Our server checked on us a total of 3 times and got rude when his tip was reduced for that. Important to note -- the table behind us had walked in as our food was being served and they got their entire order (6 people) before we left. Different server, so it may not be the entire place, however your servers are a reflection of your company. Unacceptable and we will not be back

Magically we're next and they pointed to a table that wasn't even clean that was ours. Waited a bit more. Table is clean but no one sat us? Waited about 10 more minutes waiting to be seated and finally we just sat down ourselves. A gentleman did come and apologize for the wait and brought a dessert for us to share. Thank you for the kindness and apology. Thinking this was the only hiccup. Nope. The family orders drinks and food at the same time. We're hungry and ready to go! Our group didn't get one drink until our food came 30 minutes later? Would have been nice to sip on our coffees and beverages while we waited for our food. Then the food came...what a disappointment. It may look lovely to the eyes but nothing was seasoned. It was sub par at best. We had planned to come the next morning while we waited the hour with all the selections we wanted to try. Not happening. I wished so much that the food and drinks were delish. Feels like if you're there since 1977 you can serve bland food and not care because you have legacy.
