Not only for the most delicious peppermint Coffee but the most amazing and most warm costumer serving we ever had in the time we spend in Colorado Springs. Starting from the guy in parking lot to all the guys inside the store. The vibe was awesome that we have to come back the next day and the next day ❤️ thank you guys and keep up the what y’all doing. Hope to see y’all next time we’re in town 🫶🤘🏼😆 all love and appreciation from the H-TOWN ✌️😙“

“Perfect Latte (really), excellent atmosphere, super nice people.“

“Too many coffee shops in the Springs to tolerate poor business practices. Your employees, including your manager, do not know how to make the box of Joe or do a refund? If that is in fact, true, it should be taken off the menu as you are setting your employees up for failure. Only one employee working Saturday at 9. The owner said I should have be tolerant because they are a small family business. Wow. Just shocked at his approach and this validated my opinion of a poorly executed business plan. I am very surprised you are still in business. You might want to invest in a real point of cell platform. If you have to go into the backend to do a refund that leaves you employees in a bind. Some additional training on customer service might be impactful as well. Some advice… Employees should not greet people when they walk in with… You’re just gonna have to wait. All of these. People are in front of you. That has the potential to make a customer who spent $57 online for your coffee. When you couldn’t produce, I requested a refund and was told by your employee that she doesn’t know how to do the refunds either. And then, I was told by the manager you had to go in on the back-end to get a refund. That’s ridiculous. At least invest in Square if you aren’t going to train your employees.“

“The guy never stopped what he was doing to take my order; I had to tell him while he was doing whatever it was he was occupied with. Ordered a the only smoothie they have, a 4 berry, and a veggie burrito. The smoothie was good but the burrito was very good. Super hot, and obviously made to order. I’d go back for another burrito and try the coffee.“

When I ordered my drink I asked for one pump of sugar free vanilla syrup cause I don’t know if Chase did that correctly so I told Ben about it and made sure that everything was fine. Chase was a nice checkout person as well. Keep up the good work and see you soon.“

Not one time has the quality faltered!!!! The Benevito Espresso is superior and I get compliments continuously from customers stating that it’s one of the best they have had. I highly recommend them for your roasting needs!!! Consistency and quality and amazing flavor!!!!“

“The coffee is great. I worked here though and the ow er that runs the shop was extremely abusive to his employees. I only lasted a couple of weeks. I couldn't take it. And frankly we were all terrified of him. Edit: This was the founder. I don't know if there is new management.“

“I love Dutch brothers but am very annoyed with them this last time I went. I know they're busy but I got told to drive to the side to get out of the way of the traffic and then the 2 cars behind me got their drinks ahead of me and then my drink was wrong. Just really just disappointing!“

“I like the coffee and the almond croissants. Staff is very friendly. Something I don’t like, very slow and the place needs some maintenance, like chairs are broken and the bathroom. Add some more seating.“

“They have the best Taco Salad.“

“I love Dutch but today was let down. Got my drink wrong with size didn't even offer to fix just said oh I checked with you several times with you. When I don't remember even being asked about my size. I would have paid the difference but no offer at all to fix the size issue. Normally they would be right on that. Just not today. I went today mainly to try one of the new soft tops. I go about 2 to 3 times a week. Haven't had this issue before. I just was let down today.“

“I came in right before closing on my way to work a night shift. He staff was so friendly and I received a free drink because of my longer then usual wait time! Cheers and thanks for my treat!“

“Loving the seasonal offerings, especially the housemade huckleberry tea!“

“Such a great local coffee spot. The owners & their staff are so nice. The coffee is amazing and the food menu is great too. One of the homemade scones is a must. Every neighborhood deserves a locally owned spot just like this.“

“Great spot to waste some time on a weekend. Rico's has some great seasonal coffee options, my favorite being the white chocolate huckleberry latte. The checkout process is much more linear than it was in the past and their rewards program is worth signing up for. Their food options are solid for a quick bite. The quiche is packed with eggy/veggie goodness and a thin crust. The lemon berry mascarpone cake is glorious when allowed to sit at room temp for a few minutes. Soft and fluffy, there is a slight twang in the cake that balances the sweetness in the mascarpone filling.“

“Highly recommend the tour! Mike did a great job explaining the history of the castle. One MUST go and see totally worth it!!!“

“I’ve stopped at a lot of Starbucks throughout the United States, and I can say this place served me one of the best cups of coffee I’ve had. The staff member was super nice and drew “Cool :)” on my cup. They have no idea how much it made my night after a long day of work.“

“Friendly staff! Tasty drinks!!“

“My mother is in hospice at a nearby facility, so I’ve been walking over for a coffee and to clear my head. Each time I’ve come, Spencer has been so kind and friendly and it has been a huge boost during an otherwise stressful time. Thanks so much. You’re just doing your job, but you’re doing it well and I wanted you to know how much the little stuff means.“
