Today my taste buds are thanking me for the mini donuts covered in bacon, maple syrup and confectioners sugar!! Oh my gosh, what a combo that is so scrumptiously delicious!! If you are anywhere near the Train Cars Cafe stop by and grab a bite or a drink or both! They also have a delicious cherry danish!! I love the ambience at this cool restaurant!! The staff is super friendly and there is free parking!

This is a funky little place in Nederland. It's a coffee shop cafe inside of multiple train cars,…read morehow cool! If you're history buff, I encourage you to read about the history of each of the train cars on their website. Though the business has only been around for a few years, one of the cars was built in 1906, and all of them have a unique story to their name. As far as the shop is concerned, it's a standard cafe with coffee, tea, and breakfast food options. With the addition of kava if that's your jam. The best part of this place is checking out the various train cars, all different with various types of seating options. We ordered coffees, sandwiches, and their self-proclaimed "world famous" mini donuts. The sandwiches came out piping hot. I was actually impressed with the bacon egg and cheese. Generous serving of egg, especially. Much better than the bagel spot around the corner! The donuts were good, but you really need to eat them right away while they're hot. Nice addition of the maple bacon, and solid portion to split between a few people. Considering a few places I enjoyed going to in Nederland have changed concepts, I definitely prefer coming to Train Cars Coffee and Kava. Looking forward to trying them again and seeing more of what they offer!

No more bottles of wine but they're still serving up beers. We tried "the cookie" which is apparently a pretty big deal / famous item from Gold Hill (I'm happy to say I can see why). It's salty, sweet, chocolate melty goodness. They do $10 brat & beer specials on Thursdays and the brat was pretty good - lotta mustard. Haven't tried any other food yet but the addition of the cookie to this place is an insane highlight for me. Same delicious Salto coffee, new menu & ownership. Check it out.

The cashier we had was super friendly and even gave us some recommendations, which I appreciated. Overall, good coffee stop and I'd come back if I visit Idaho Springs again.

It's been on the "must go" list for a while but I finally had a chance to visit it on a beautiful mid-February day today. It sure was worth the drive and time all the way from the south Denver. The moment I stepped inside, the warm welcoming atmosphere was sensed. As soon as the lady upfront greeted me cordially, I felt more comfortable and relaxed. The instantaneous gratification hit me where I almost uttered "I am glad that I took the time to come here!" I wanted to peruse the menu. To my "Give me a moment" statement, the kind lady said "Of course, take your time. We also have a Valentine's Day special drink right here!". It was a white chocolate based mocha which sounded quite sweet so I asked her if it was sweet to which she said "It's very sweet but we can always adjust it to half the syrup!" All kinds of considerate words were made in each of her reply. I decided to go simple today; I went with the drip coffee which comes with unlimited free refills. The lady gave me one of the cups and told me where the pot that contained the drip was located. Alongside the pot, there was a super mini refrigerator that contained two jars of cold milk: one is half and half and the other is oat milk. What a kind care the shop does to keep them chilled. The simple drip coffee was just what I needed; it hit the spot. And tasted clean with no burnt notes at all. Quality coffee indeed. As I was immersed in this review writing in the ambient setting, the shop started to fill with guests. Although it's so tucked in this little mountain town, there appear to be "coffee fanatic fans" that know this place. And like me, I assume that many of them are not the local town folk. There is no wonder why they are drawn to it; they know where to find great coffee spots. I loved every single bit of this cozy place. My recommendation is only one of the multitude of others that know this place.
