That said - the vibe is really nice! Music was a little louder than anticipated but I really enjoyed it nonetheless. The bartender was super helpful with drink recs and general CO springs recs! I had the Violet Lady cocktail because the bartender said it would probably be the most floral - and it WAS very floral, just how I like my cocktails! I sat at the bar which was actually very spacious, and they had lots of other booths and some tables. Bathrooms also very clean.

Wasn't even sure they were open today, but I saw people walking in and followed suit. I ordered at the kiosk at the front but didn't realize they only served food after 9.

The couple next to me had ordered food and it smelled amazing, so I'll definitely be coming back. It's a beautiful coffee shop!

Not gonna lie, I remember when this place was known as The Wild Goose Meeting House. I made a lot…read moreof friends here. When it shutdown on August 23rd, 2024, that was a MAJOR gut punch. So, when I heard that The Best Coffee & Lounge would be taking its place, I was actually interested in it and having somewhere besides the Penrose Library to go to, as a hangout. So, when The Best Coffee & Lounge opened on Wednesday, May 28th, 2025, I asked my mom to drop me off to check it out, after a dentist appointment. So, when I walked in, I met this old man with gray hair and a gray beard. Apparently, this guy is Tim Hines, one of the co-owners. When I was just trying to be clear on what not to do, he said "Okay, you don't have to repeat yourself." and, quite frankly, I was taken aback by his dickish attitude. Apparently, this guy was in the Afghanistan War in the Army and retired as a Colonel. Well, whoop-de-frickin'-do, pal. My dad/grandfather, Mr. Ivan Burdick, may he rest in peace, was in the Air Force and served for a little over 20 years and retired as a Master Sergeant AND he fought in the Korean War and Vietnam War. So, on Thursday, May 29th, I came back and saw that Mr. Humberto Cabrera, the guy I met long before The Best Coffee & Lounge, when they were having a private event and, to my mistake, thought they were open, I told him about the way Tim was behaving yesterday and he apologized for it. So, he showed me around and then I bought a soda from them, played Killzone Mercenary on my Red PlayStation Vita Slim and went home. I went back on Friday, May 30th and I honestly things had been smoothed over and some of the staff there were nice, but it was short-lived. Why? See below. On Saturday, May 31st, I barely walked in and Tim, who was sitting at a table talking to a couple, gets up and tells me to leave ... without even giving me any valid reasoning for it. So, I left, only to come back and was standing outside on the phone with the police and getting his physical description. Anyway, Tim comes outside and I confronted him, demanding to know why he kicked me out and, of all the lame excuses he could come up with, his was that I was "loitering". Is this guy serious? I'm on public property! You don't have the authority to tell me where to be. Matter of fact, you can't tell ANYBODY that nonsense. I also told him that he has no right to be kicking people out, to which he tried to defend and I told him I was on the phone with the police and he seemed rather indifferent about it. I then called him a "piece of shit" AND flipped him off, too. What did he do? Walked away laughing. That's how immature and petty this man is. I find it extremely hard to believe that this place was once The Wild Goose Meeting House. In all honesty, if The Best Coffee & Lounge were to shutdown tomorrow, I wouldn't be bothered by it, at all. Especially not after Tim kicked me out. Also, businesses cannot kick people out just because they're hanging out. They have to have valid reasons for doing it, such as: A customer is behaving aggressively or inappropriately or being discriminatory, while under the influence of alcohol. They cannot kick people out, because of race, disabilities, etc. Doing so, can and often will be seen as discrimination and, in all honesty, that's EXACTLY how Tim made me feel that day. I kid you not, when The Wild Goose Meeting House was open, they've NEVER ONCE kicked me out. The Wild Goose welcomed me with open arms and treated me both fairly and with respect, as they did with everyone who walked through their doors to sit down and relax and maybe even order a drink or a soda or food and that's the big problem with The Best Coffee & Lounge. Humberto. As long as Tim is co-owner, things are NEVER going to improve. He's a problem that CLEARLY needs to be dealt with. Also. "The Best Coffee & Lounge", my ass. If they're so great, why is the place practically a ghost town, huh? I'll wait. Exactly. Ever since what happened last year, I have 0 plans of ever coming back to this God-awful place. I'll gladly take Supernova or Good Neighbors. Mr. Humberto, I hope things get better and Tim is kicked to the curb, but I can't justify recommending this place to anyone. Not after May 31st, 2025. Fuck The Best Coffee & Lounge.

It was not. I've been ordering that martini for 27 years. After much discussion, the waitress agreed to bring me three olives. She did not want to take the drink back. We ordered the shrimp skewers and the corn and lobster balls. The shrimp was criminally overdone, basically seafood jerky. Neither my wife nor I could even taste the lobster in the balls, much less see any actual lobster meat in them. Lots and lots of corn, though. Very disappointing experience. The view was amazing, but for the price we paid, the service and food were substandard.

I did not have a res but they had plenty of tables when I came @4:30ish, only a few were reserved. By the time I left around 6:30ish, a good number of folks were eating. They have very dark but clean bathrooms too! Of note - this place is deep inside a combo shopping center/apt complex; the map was confusing. Just park near the shops, and follow the map about a 2-3 minute walk "into" the apartment part, you'll find the place. They have indoor and outdoor seating. Overall, this spot is a vibe!

The bartender told us that the rest of the bar was downstairs and was just waiting for a table to open up. An owner was there and really took the time to talk to us and tell us about the bar, you could tell he was really passionate about it and I loved his vision. We were then seated in the downstairs area of the bar. It had a very moody, dim Speakeasy Vibe. I had heard about the espresso martini and wanted to give it a try. I noticed that there was music playing but very low and I could almost hear everyone's conversation which wasn't a horrible thing although I think good music always helps the vibe of a bar. Our drinks came and the presentation was beautiful, but I just could not sign off on the taste. Just wasn't my bag of tea when it came to an espresso martini. Being a bartender myself I have had my fair share and trust me I wanted to love it more. It felt as if the bar as a whole was missing something, although I could not quiet place it. I'm sure with the growth and popularity of the bar, it will iron itself out as everyone was very nice and I do love a good Speakeasy Vibe.
