Some awful lady was being extremely rude towards the pastry chef. She bought out almost the entire bakery, demanded things that weren't even on the menu, and then wanted MORE butter for a croissant... I'll let that speak for itself. Don't skip this place, rather you're headed in or out of town. Well worth the stop!

After spending several days in Estes Park, The Spice Rack won our hearts as our favorite coffee…read moreshop. Why? First, it is adorable tucked in woodlands just outside of town near a bubbling brook. The interior is spacious with the bakery, coffee shop, and store featuring spices and other local goodies. It is clean and has bathrooms. Second, the coffee is high quality and delicious! We tried a variety of different mistos, drip coffee, and cold brew...they were all great! And reasonably priced! Third, the bakery is incredible. We got a whole bunch of baked goods at the start of the trip and enjoyed them over the next few days. Some highlights included the bacon and egg pastry, the strawberry rhubarb fruit pastry, and the cinnamon twist. We also loved the blueberry fruit pastry, the egg and cheese pastry, the kouign amann , and the chocolate croissant. Finally, the staff were friendly and helpful. Always a great perk when the service is just as high quality as the product! The only con is that The Spice Rack is closed Monday and Tuesday, so be sure to stop by Wednesday through Sunday! You won't be disappointed!

We were in the mood for some warm, savory Thai food and this is the place to get it! Parking was pretty easy as they have a few spots neighboring the restaurant. We were quickly seated and our server was very prompt with waters and taking our order. I decided on the Tom yum soup with a mild spice level while J opted for the Pad Kee Mao with a high spice level. The soup was delicious and warm - helpful as I was getting over a cold and I found the spice level very manageable. The mushroom and shrimp were well cooked, plentiful and delicious. I had a good chunk of the pad kee mao as well - I loved the spice level here too. Just the right level to get your eyes watering but not out of control. The savory sauce was amazing and the noodles and chicken were very well cooked. We were one of a couple tables as we entered, but a few more joined while we were there. The sitting area is spacious and I could tell it might get busy later in the evening. All the staff were very helpful, prompt, and kind. Definitely give this place a try on your next visit to Estes Park!

Okay. The tea. Top notch. SO many options to pick from and they offer unlimited choices during your seating (not every place does this which I find very lame).
