Great place and great food. Check for busy hour to visit the Alpine Modern Cafe, the place is not to big and they only have one door to go in and out. read more

My husband knows I love visiting new cafes...so he surprised me by taking me here this morning. I must say I was quite impressed, it's a gorgeous little place (I'm not local only visiting for a few months so I'm not sure what it looked like before) however you can see it has been thoughtfully and carefully renovated. It has a lovely indoor space, mainly white with walnut seating and tables. It feels open and welcoming yet still has that cozy air about it. The front counter beautifully modern and showcasing pastries and artisan coffee. There is also outdoor seating perfect for warm summer days. The gentlemen who served is was very helpful, (explaining the coffee varieties to us and others) we ordered lattes and egg on toast with avocado. The latte had quite a cereal flavour which I didn't mind, but I didn't really love either. My preference is quite a rich strong taste, but I like to try new things too. The avocado on artisan sourdough was delicious with a perfectly cooked egg. I also tried a drip filter coffee which I quite enjoyed, it had that strong flavour I like in my coffee. As we left the barista made sure to ask if we enjoyed everything, it was a nice touch considering the snobby baristas I've encountered at MANY other cafes in town. P.S lots of wifi...I'll probably be back for a study and breakfast session soon! read more

Excellent all around. For being open barely a month, Alpine Modern Café has the trappings of your next favorite place. The European influence on the menu, including the tartines for breakfast, are thoughtful and savory and the coffee is very well done. The space is small, but the interior design takes advantage of every square inch along with lots of natural light. The staff is courteous and focused on providing a great experience. I've been a number of times and each visit has improved upon the last. read more

A little gem! Love coming to this place after a good hike or ride. However, watch out! The counter gal is snarky, rude and pretentious.

Everything I tasted was fresh and well made. Great coffee, pastries, Tartines, and the best of all, fresh bread from Louisville's artisan bakery: Izzio. read more

Great layout, amazing coffee, knowledgable staff. There is nothing not to love about this place. One of the best cappuccinos I've had in Boulder, and that's saying something! If you're in the area, make the trip up to check this place out. read more

You can't beat when entrepreneurs decide to start a passion project. The food and coffee at Alpine Modern is divine. Simple, delicious and thoughtful. Food designed by Collin Kirby who was once the Sous Chef at Frasca Food & Wine. Art curation and general badassery created by Lauren & Lon McGowen read more

Love this place. The food and decor are fantastic. Love the quinoa porridge and lunch salad. About time a coffee shop this cool came to Boulder! read more

Great food, friendly service. This place is a gem. The tartines are fabulous. The GF options are small and parking is challenging.

I absolutely love this place. The food is delicious and the staff was so nice. My toddler made a huge mess, which I started to clean and the staff quickly came to help (which is appreciated but certainly not a requirement!). read more

This place knows exactly what it's doing. They have a sleek modern design that is still welcoming and a menu to match, Contemporary American that doesn't have much variety because it doesn't need to. However there is a great selection of teas, which I definitely enjoyed as that is something lacking at most usual coffee shops. This is the perfect place to have a light breakfast or lunch and do some schoolwork. read more

Alpine Modern Cafe - Quinoa Salad with radish, cucumber and avocado. Perfectly dressed, perfect portion size! - Cafes Near Me - Boulder, Colorado

Amazing coffee, fantastic menu, modern but cozy atmosphere, this might be my new favorite place in Boulder!

The decor is slick, and the location is convenient, but both times I've gone the coffee has been terribly weak and the treats behind glass at the counter have tasted stale. read more

Spent a couple of hours whiling away a morning with my daughter here. I only had drip coffee - but it was good. My daughter reported the spicy chai was delicious. The overall vibe represents the name. Modern. It was pretty tight inside, but there was ample and perfect seating outside. If you're allergic to people sporting every type of Apple product, you might be aghast at the display -not a problem for me. Loved it, and would go again. Apparently they have another location as well on Pearl St. IIRC. read more

I love the store and now I love their coffee shop! It's modern, open, trendy and their coffee is great. The location is in the perfect spot and there is plenty of seating indoor and out. I highly recommend! read more

Super cute place, but if you've ever worked in a half-way decent cafe you'll know this ain't shit. Paid $6 for a macchiato with oat milk, coffee tasted burnt as fuck (like a bad decaf) and they used whole milk instead of oat. The proportions were also very off, or they over-pull their shots. Either way, $6 is nuts for what I got hahah. They did a pretty good job with the latte art, but again, you shouldn't be able to do art with a macchiato, given that it's a shot of espresso with a dollop of steamed milk. Milk was also burnt and bubbly, microfoam. But also I'm a hyper-critical bitch so it's fine. I've just spent so much time and effort at my own cafe it's disappointing to see people not give a fuck about how the coffee they're making actually tastes, or if it's even correct . It's fine hah. It's fine. read more

Alpine Modern Cafe is my perfect coffee shop. The atmosphere is so beautiful: marble everywhere, industrial lights and exposure, natural lighting, honeycomb tiles on the floor, and minimalist everything. The baristas were super friendly and the coffee was pretty good despite them only having a 12oz cup for iced drinks. It was absolutely packed on a Sunday afternoon, and is an awesome place to get some work done if you love a quiet background noise and plenty of people buzzing around you! read more

This place is obviously beautiful inside and out, with a well-kept exterior and well-decorated interior. The prices are more than I would ever pay again. The one dollar sign is deceiving for sure because that's why we chose this cafe in the first place. I totally realize that at places like this you pay for the ambiance, but my issue was with the service. I asked for an iced caramel macchiato thinking they could just add caramel flavoring to the macchiato for me, but the barista looked at me like I was dumb and said that he could make an iced latte with vanilla and caramel because a macchiato is "an entirely different thing." Okay. Turns out the drink ended up being almost $6 when the macchiato I wanted with syrup added would've only been $4 even. My friend had a matcha latte and paid over $2 more than advertised (almost $7) which she thinks had to of been from an upcharge for different milk that she wasn't told about. At the end of the day, service makes or breaks a place for me and I can even overlook higher prices for it, but I wouldn't want to come back to a place that makes me feel like I'm not good enough to be there. That was the feeling my friend and I both received based on the attitude of the employees. read more

Everything is great from the moment you walk up to that first sip. The ambiance is awesome and matches the meticulous detail of the place. The Internet is fast and they have 3 routers. Bonus is the outside sitting area and fire pit. This place is a YES! read more

Super hip and modern, a great atmosphere to start the morning. Alpine modern takes care in crafting both drinks and food. We keep going back for the Avocado Breakfast Toast! read more

I go to Alpine Modern for the atmosphere. It's a great spot to study or to meet up with a friend. Great for Instagram too! But their coffee is nothing special, and I haven't found any food on their menu that I would order again. It's also prettyyyyy expensive. read more

I love this Cafe! It's so cute and has a great atmosphere. The food and coffee are great but the service is even better. The two workers that usually work when I come in are so kind and always make you feel welcome. I honestly really look forward to coming in to chat with Carin and Kyser. I recommend the avocado toast and all of the breads/pastries are great! read more

Came here for coffee and breakfast on a friend's recommendation. Had the latte and yogurt parfait. Simply yummy. Perfect to get the morning started. read more

Details! Great design sense with yummy coffee and teas. An University Hill neighborhood gem, so glad Alpine restored this local historical meeting spot of Boulder. read more

The definition of a Boulder coffee shop, it sits back away from campus and Pearl St., but it still has plenty of people hanging out at any given time. Their staff is as hipster as they come. read more

All form, no function. great location, really pretty, & have all the gadgets, but the coffee is consistently underwhelming at best. they even get beans from an amazing roaster (which is why i kept going back) and still make really mediocre coffee. come for the scenery, stay for the design, dont bother with the coffee. read more

Modern, elevated, relaxed, casual vibe. Coffee and egg/avocado tartine is mad good. Great place to pop in for your morning coffee, lunch or anytime of the day just to hang for a bit to enjoy the great drinks and food. This place is so money. read more

What a great change of pace. Small place with a lot of charm. I would recommend for a good, interesting breakfast read more

Alpine Modern Cafe - Salmon baquette. Fabulous! - Cafes Near Me - Boulder, Colorado

This place is a really outstanding cafe. Excellent job guys. I am a bit of an espresso nerd, and I was a little concerned when I saw their ultra-hip espresso setup. (You can see it in the pictures here on Yelp.) But as it turns out, they serve Middle State Coffee, and the espresso blend I had there twice was quite good. I also had the avacado with olive spread on toast with egg, and it was extremely well done. They use a smokey Spanish paprika, which I love. Super clean, smelled great, and great light. I will definitely be back the next time I am in Boulder. read more

We live around the corner and think it is just such a luxury to have such a beautiful cafe right in the neighborhood. The staff is wonderful and the outdoor seating is lovely. All the pretzel sammies are delicious as well. My only wish is they would start using local milk such as Morning Fresh like every other nice cafe in town, or some other quality organic milk. It not only would be healthier for all of us but I imagine it would make the espresso drinks taste better too! read more

Currently drinking the WORST (and very expensive) Americano I have ever had. The exterior patio is beautiful as well as their interior design, but maybe they could have invested some of that into better beans? Presses? Who knows. So unfortunate because they are so convenient but not worth your money or taste buds. read more

Prices high and WIFI really sucks. I've asked twice about upgrading WiFi. This is a college location and hangout! Too bad it's a good location. read more

Great granola and nice ambience :) loved it on my first breakfast in Boulder. The service is awesome and the spot is hip yet chill. Will come back! read more

Amazing menu selection & the prices are very good considering the quality, and presentation of the food. I only wish they had more selection of kinds of regular drip coffee-although their house is a great blend! This was my first visit, and I will definitely be back. read more

Staff was very unwelcoming to our group. The most unfriendly baristas I have ever encountered. We arrived at 3:15 and they treated us like we were a huge inconvenience (they close at 4pm, but you would've thought we came 5 minutes before close). The building and aesthetic is very cool and it would've been a great experience had the baristas been friendly to their customers. read more

We came with great expectations and left disheartened. The cold brew was lacking flavor, as if it was steeped the bare minimum amount of time. The chai latte was bland. The avocado tartine with egg was salty...like horribly over salted. The presentation of the food was nice, but then dig in and complete disappointment. I will say, we love the decore and preparation of the coffee shop, but that was it. read more

Bright and well lit. The coffee was good (cortado and cap) but not my favorite in town (try boxcar... Wink wink). We had some breakfast and it was tasty. Staff was friendly and i will definitely be back for a work session. Big tables and lots of room. read more

Good food, but I've ordered delivery from them three times, and each time they've messed up my order! Last time I ordered their avocado toast, as well as one of their bowls and some tea, and all I got was the toast. They should pay more attention to their deliveries, because this is really turning me off. Not sure I'd ever order from them again. read more

Pretentious, but great spot ;) Excellent coffee and good eats. The avocado toast (they probably call it something fancier than that) is delicious. read more

Kory was rude and distracted. It took FOREVER to get service. Product was great, but not impressed with his poor attitude.
