They had plenty of delicious options to choose from and beautiful freshly baked bread displayed along the wall. The employees were also super friendly and welcoming. WHAT WE SWALLOWED: *PULL APART LOAF: This was SO tasty! Soft, delicious bread that was gone in seconds. *KIDS BUTTER NOODLES AND CAESAR SALAD: Perfectly buttered noodles paired with a Caesar salad great for the kiddo. *BROCCOLI CHEDDAR: Warm and satisfying, this was perfect. *CHICKEN POT PIE: MY FAVORITE! Creamy goodness on the inside with a deliciously flaky crust on top. Comfort food perfection! This place was such a great little find! Cute atmosphere, friendly employees, and delicious comfort food. If you're passing through Buena Vista, definitely worth stopping in for a bite.

The bread here alone is super impressive, we ate a whole pretzel loaf as an appetizer and i don't regret it. The Mojo Pork Benedict was absolutely delicious! The pork was so tender and flavorful and the eggs were cooked perfectly. My sister's cinammon roll French toast was the best dessert breakfast! Overall this place is really impressive and is churning out delicious food in such a tiny space!

Buena Vista Coffee Roasters is a gem in this small mountain community. Before we visited, I…read moresearched for a great coffee shop for my afternoon pick-me-up, and the reviews were absolutely right--this place is amazing. They roast their beans in-house, which means every cup starts with incredibly fresh coffee. I ordered a latte with whole milk--no sugar or syrups--and it was exceptionally smooth. The beans had natural notes of fruit and nuts, making the coffee flavorful without needing any sweeteners. The patio is a great place to rascals the summer heat. I only have one regret: I wish I had bought a bag or two of beans to bring back to Denver.

We went into a couple of other supposed coffee stores in this little town and they really didn't have what we wanted which was a cortado. Most of the people didn't even know what we're talking about. And suggested that we go to Buena Vista Roastery. Really nice set up. Wonderful cortados and espresso americanos, etc. etc. Also had some Nice baked goods and a real cool vibe. You could sit inside or outside. When we were. There was pretty hot so we stayed inside, but it's a hopping place. Lots of people on their laptops, apple parking and again, a really great vibe to the place. People that work. There were really nice and we would absolutely come back.

From cookies to brownies to bacon cheddar croissant to gelato to iced coffee and everything in between, oh my lantaaaaaaaaaaaa--- it's like I died and went to heaven! 10/10 this place rocks your socks off! Service is quick and it's a small place so the line gets long fast, but it's so worth the wait. I love the location as there's plenty of bench's and area to sit or just continue walking around Aspen. No pics because I ate it too fast. My favorite flavor gelato was black diamond, it was like cookies and cream but with brownie / fudge? I loved that if you buy 3 cookies you get one free! Can't wait to go back to aspen and have more Paradise.

Some of the best baked goods you'll find anywhere in Colorado. From perfectly flaky croissants to rich, seasonal pastries, everything is made with incredible skill and flavor that rivals top city bakeries.

My oh my! I have a new favorite cake and it's all the way in Aspen, CO! :(…read more I take cakes very seriously. I do cake tastings for birthday cakes. No big deal. On a recent trip to Aspen we were celebrating a birthday in our group and I took it upon myself to order the cake. I came across d'Elissious through a friend who lives in Aspen. I visited there website and left a message requesting a cake for 4 days later. I got a call back and ordered a 6 inch golden velvet cake. The lady was very friendly and delivered the cake to our hotel for a small delivery charge. It was simply done in white with a "Happy Birthday" inscription. BUT what I really want to tell you about, and the whole world about is just how amazing this cake tasted. Holy Cake Gods! This was the BEST cake I have ever had. It was a sour cream cake with cream cheese frosting. The whole group agreed that this cake was straight from the heavens. It was so good in fact, that I dragged the left over cake all the way back to LA. On the plane. Through security. Totally worth it. I finished the entire thing. She will ship but it's super pricey... I just might do it at some point!
