If I lived in Durango, way too much of my money would go to this establishment. Tons of options for coffee and food and baked goods, and lots of gluten free options. Cute cafe located inside of a school. Lots of seating options and very welcoming. A must try for coffee in the area!

A fantastic cafe with the best boba in town and a good selection for eats. The staff is very friendly and kind, although they always seem insanely busy whenever I go. Despite that the wait times seem pretty standard for a cafe.
I cannot stress enough how great their boba selection is
Parking: Parking is pretty rough, off of 3rd St, i think they have more parking on E 13th St & E 2nd Ave. I normally park down the street a bit. They do have several charging stations in their parking lot

A little noisy for studying but good boba and coffee, both at the same time preferably. COSTLY...as with everything in town 😞
Vegetarian options: Some premade meals and a vegan bar in the pastry case.

My friends and I ordered different paninis but we all got the wrong ones. The didn’t have any flavor, and the tortillas were plain, so they weren’t worth the price. We ordered two drinks and first got the wrong one because the system wasn’t good. There’s nothing written on the cups; they didn’t take names or write anything on them. So the customers couldn’t find their drinks or get the right ones. The atmosphere was cute, but we were very disappointed. Way overpriced for the quality.

Best coffee, kind service, and WORLD'S GREATEST AVOCADO toast. I wish I could give it 6 stars. Plus, super cool space with an art gallery.

Bad service and a horrible boba I almost feel like he intentionally made it bad on purpose because I work at a coffee place and it was a very simple drink to make but turned out so bad!!!would not recommend

The best Cold Brew Coffee in Durango. The vegan Butterscoth cookies are pretty amazing also. Loved how friendly and quick the girls are also. Really loved the vibe of the place also. Looks like a great comfortable place to sit back in an oversized chair and and people watch.

AMAZING GLUTEN FREE! I feel seen as a gluten free person. Their muffins and quiches are incredible and soft and fluffy! I felt like for a moment I wasn’t gluten free again. The environment here was relaxing and fun. We got to walk around and see all the art inside and that was pretty special.
Dietary restrictions: Gluten free in almost everything they offer and that was amazing and special! Very impressed!

What a fun and cute cafe with attached artist studios. We ended up getting smoothies and the delicious quiche! We were so excited about this place we went back in for boba.
Will absolutely be returning for further Durango coffee trips and breakfasts.

If you're looking for a quick lunch that's as good as you can make at home this is a fun experience. Very cozy setup. Old school converted to a community center, apartments, commercial offices. Have some good gluten free choices and the tables are comfortable for old school chairs. Staff is friendly and helpful.
Dietary restrictions: Gluten free sandwich options and desserts. All premade, as good as you would make at home yourself.
