7 Best Coffee Shops in Steamboat Springs

“I've been here twice and both times were so good! I got an espresso boba the first day and a strawberry green tea with green apple boba. My son had a waffle on a stick and loved it. I took my husband a cookie and he couldn't stop talking about it. So in general.. stop by and pick anything up, it's all amazing.“

“Beard & Braid is an absolute gem in Steamboat Springs. The moment you walk in, you’re welcomed by the warm, plant-filled modern atmosphere and the rich aroma of expertly brewed coffee. Every detail—from the handcrafted espresso drinks to the house-made ice cream—feels thoughtful and elevated.

The coffee is phenomenal: smooth, bold, and perfectly balanced. Whether you’re into pour-overs, lattes, or seasonal specials, you can taste the care and quality in every sip. And the ice cream? Absolutely unreal. Creative, small-batch flavors that always hit the spot. You can tell everything is made with real ingredients and love.

It’s the kind of place you want to hang out for a while—whether you’re catching up with friends or just soaking in the Steamboat vibes. Beard & Braid has quickly become a must-stop spot for anyone visiting town, and a cherished go-to for locals.“

“I don’t drink caffeine so I am always looking for unique and actually tasty warm caffeine-free drinks. Their drink called ‘warm hug’ is amazing! Plus the staff is so friendly and welcoming!“

“Amazing organic food and drinks! Great events, kid and family friendly! Locally owned business and a great place to connect and relax!“

“Awesome coffee, friendly service.“

“Our dinners were delicious and plenty! The ambience is excellent. Beautiful dining room. Heather gave us terrific service. The only negative, and it wasn't the fault of the restaurant, was the screaming children seated near us. Some were in control of their children but one family appeared not to be.“

“Obsessed!
My chai was dreamy and the chia seed pudding hit the spot. My husband—who’s super picky, gave his flat white a 10/10 (high praise coming from him!). Shay, our barista, was the best, hooked us up with awesome Steamboat recs and made the whole experience even better. Can’t wait to come back!“
