37 Best Cafes in Colorado Springs

“Thank you so much for your delicious breakfasts, morning coffees, and my new favorite- gingerbread hot cocoa!! You are all so friendly and attentive. We loved walking over from our Airbnb this week. Loved the crab benedict!!“

“They were so kind and the bowls are delicious! No added junk and you’d never know it! My daughter was having nerves prepping for Camp Rock and this was the perfect treat! Thanks for making our day!!“

“Nice atmosphere and staff.“

“Small inside, can get crowded when weather isn't nice enough to open outdoor seating. There is indoor, outdoor, and bar seating. Foods good, small menu but the whole place is small so it makes sense. Great cocktails and lots of vegan/vegetarian options. Vibe is chill and daily specials on the whiteboard keep it fresh. Its a cool little place.“

“Wasn't expecting much, but was more than pleasantly surprised. Great food - gyro was one of best ever had. Service was good and atmosphere when we went was quiet and enjoyable.

Son had chicken sandwich and meat was thinking sliced like gyro lamb meat.

Very easy to eat and good. Gyro was actually staged, didn't fall apart while eating, light and delicious.“

“Enjoyed the atmosphere, staff, amazing brunch and of course the bottomless coffee. So worth the trip to downtown Colorado Springs“

“PGs is my favorite morning spot in Manitou. The atmosphere is casual and cozy and they have many gluten free options !“

“I had never tried kava before are they are super nice and informative here. Definitely recommend it!“

“We loved the ice cream in the OCC location, north spring location, and happy to see it back on Tejon. A must visit every time we are in the springs. The owner is very engaged with everyone no matter your age. Great ice cream and wonderful showmanship!!!“

“We visited Drip Queen for the first time today. The owner was very friendly and helpful. The seating very comfortable- velvet longed chairs. The jazz was flowing from the speakers. We were provided hand towels before dining- very nice touch. I started with a dessert- London Fog Afgogato. Cool and refreshing. We then had the gouda and bacon stuffed mushrooms- soooo good!. Finally we had stuffed clams. Those were yummy as well. I could taste a little Old Bay in them. Yummy! We'll be back“

“Ohana is an actual family, a true third space, it feels for me like a reprieve from the rest of the world that often doesn’t feel it was built for me. I love this place but more importantly I love these people.“

“Wonderful atmosphere, friendly competent staff and delicious coffee, teas and baked goods! Love this place.“

“They have the best Taco Salad.“

“amazing place and great staff“

“We visited this place yesterday. I had a latte that was divine and my husband loved the cold brew. My family and I also had some breakfast sandwiches and burritos that were delicious. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone visiting the area!“

“The Tuna Toast was very flavorful and filling. I was suprised by the density of it. The juice was very good. Not fresh juiced but they did say it was juiced this morning. I do wish they had stated that the juice came with ice because it took up most the space in the cup and I dont feel as though I got enough juice for the price paid.“

“Not a bad place to get something to eat“

“I had a great experience today. Staff was super nice and very helpful. Also, the chocolate chip cookies are sooooooo delicious!!!!🤤“

“I've been here only a few times but the food is the best. It seems to be pretty empty often, which is a shame but also means you'll be served very quickly. Top notch food, some pretty common as well as unique groceries, definitely worth stopping by. Good prices and large portions.“

“Shout out to the Cucuru crew for making a first time ever thing happen last night ! Way to kill it y’all!!“

“My favorite place to enjoy a coffee, create new friendships, and nurture current existing friendships.“

“Just a fun and good weird feel went there for a soccer documentary with the switchbacks“

“I was told to try this place. Did take out. Walked into space and was blown away by the ambience. Instantly regretted not staying and eating in. Take out was wonderful! Coming from NJ, it is so hard to find east coast vibes and east coast quality food. This place has both! Clean, aesthetically pleasing and food was fresh! Must try!“

“We’re currently visiting my sister and her family in Colorado Springs, and decided to eat brunch together here. I was beyond impressed! My 2 year old (who will be 3 next week) has multiple food allergies. Normally going out to eat is a tough experience. Our server was so nice and when I mentioned allergies her response was “oh we take food allergies seriously, let me make sure that item is a safe food.” Not only was it the very first time he was able to order off of a kids menu (normally we feel lucky to get him one or two items ale carte), but the food came out with a “ALLERGY” flag in it which made us all feel safer about him eating it. He loved the meal, no allergic reaction, and the service/wait staff was FANTASTIC. I can’t wait to go back the next time we visit. 🥰“

“Great food and the staff was so helpful and friendly, the music was a little too loud so early in the morning, but I enjoyed my breakfast!“

“I’m here at least once a week. Love the cozy friendly neighborhood vibes“

“This store is the exact vibe we look for. It's super gamer themed with their drinks and their decor. They have tables available for reservations and have a digital table with fun board games on it that are free to play. We got Sera's Flask of Bees, Dragon Hoard, and Red Mage Blush Level Up. We got the Sera's Flask of Bees for free to help train one of the employees and because I mentioned my name was spelled the same. All three drinks were absolutely delicious. They have a pretty large menu and include some coffee options with coffee flavored bursting boba. The workers are extremely personable and friendly. We had really fun conversation while getting our drinks made and ended up staying and hanging out much longer than we meant to and loved the entire experience. Absolutely a 10/10 experience. I will be bringing friends and family here to experience it.“

“The coffee is very flavorful and fresh, still not worth the $8 drip coffee plus tax and a hidden gratitity fee for a simple brew. No fancy drink just plain black coffee and it was only the fourhs full!! The pastries same story. I paid $25 for a regular coffee and pastry. I was disappointed in the atmosphere, would love a place to sit and relax, but it did not match the hotel. Bright florecent lights and one large table shoved on the side. I went out to the hotel to enjoy, and did! The workers were nice and efficient, but the two who were just standing around were very loud and obnoxious. Playing hand games and laughing very loud right at the register and counter, felt unprofessional and annoying.“

“Picturesque scenery, fantastic people, good food, and great drinks“

“The coffee was delicious and the staff was very polite and friendly!“

“wonderful place great food great people I'll be back“

“Amazing food, Lana and Angie!! I’m
GF and eat healthy and absolutely loved my dish. Just ate here and the food was so good!! Would love to eat here again. Healthy and affordable. Great menu options for the whole family (kids loved it). Kids ran around and played outside.“

“It was NYE morning, we saw the open sign and no cars. We had the the whole place to ourselves. sharon informed us the she will be closing the doors in 2 weeks. She let us pick a commemorative mug from the wall. Talk about timing. This was the best breakfast I've had in a loooong time! get in there before you can't.“

“Walnut wheat French toast is the best, nothing compares!“

“The food was delicious. Our server, Erin, was great. she kept us up to date with the status of our order. There were some delays with food orders. Our issues were with the owner. I found a hair in my food and brought it to the attention of our server. She took my plate to the back and shortly thereafter, the manager came out and apologized and offered to remake my order. Erin also offered a complimentary desert, which I accepted. The issue appeared to be resolved until the owner came out and began trying to give me a cooking lesson. She was extremely condescending and spoke to me as if I have never cooked in my life. When I gave her brief overview of my cooking experience, she kept questioning me. As an owner, she should probably learn to keep her mouth shut and stop being so confrontational.“

“On our brief stay this little shop was a highlight. The staff, Elena and Claire, were welcoming and friendly. They even gave us some great recommendations for us to check out when we told them where we were headed. If we lived here, I’d get coffee here every day.“
