    Large cold brew- plain
    Nathan B.

    Great coffee and atmosphere. When I say great coffee, it's good enough to drink without all of the additional sugar, cream, flavoring, etc,.

    Chai and raspberry muffin
    Julie E.

    Pastries are decent. Chai was like flavored sweet water day 1, asked for half and half day 2 and made it tolerable more like 2%. Going to try another place next. Good in a pinch and raspberry muffin was tart and soft. No drive thru. Walk inside to order.

    chorizo breakfast burrito

    We were driving through BV and stopped by for what we hoped would be a quick grab-and-go breakfast, but our timing was unlucky and there was a small line when we arrived. We ended up waiting about 40 min for 2 coffees and 2 burritos. That could've been a fluke, so I won't harp on it too long, but it did dampen our experience. The coffee was sweeter and milkier than we would've liked and the burritos were rather bland. The burrito sounded promising with chorizo, eggs, green chile, and hash browns, but it ended up being a mushy blend of all of them with none of the great distinctive textures or flavors you would expect (especially from the chorizo and hash browns). Neither were truly bad, but they ended up being just sustenance rather than a breakfast we really enjoyed. They do have a diverse menu though! And the baked goods looked great, so I wouldn't write it off completely.

    Amazing service from the Brown Dog team on a busy Saturday. Special thanks to Taylor for going above and beyond on our order!

    Great coffee and food items, conveniently on US 285. Good to see a local shop doing well. Service was quick and the indoor and outdoor seating was nice. Adjacent parking lot.

    Brown dog coffee is an absolute oasis with incredible coffee! I love the outside/indoor seating and huge selection of food, pastries and beverages. I appreciated that they have a spicy chai and a sweet option! I had a dirty chai latte with oat milk, using the sweeter chai and it was one of the best I have ever had. If you're driving through BV, you must try brown dog!

    Outside seating available

    Found this place just passing through town. Great coffee and food. Tuna salad sandwich was really tasty.

    Buena Vista Coffee Roasters is a gem in this small mountain community. Before we visited, I…read moresearched for a great coffee shop for my afternoon pick-me-up, and the reviews were absolutely right--this place is amazing. They roast their beans in-house, which means every cup starts with incredibly fresh coffee. I ordered a latte with whole milk--no sugar or syrups--and it was exceptionally smooth. The beans had natural notes of fruit and nuts, making the coffee flavorful without needing any sweeteners. The patio is a great place to rascals the summer heat. I only have one regret: I wish I had bought a bag or two of beans to bring back to Denver.

We went into a couple of other supposed coffee stores in this little town and they really didn't have what we wanted which was a cortado. Most of the people didn't even know what we're talking about. And suggested that we go to Buena Vista Roastery. Really nice set up. Wonderful cortados and espresso americanos, etc. etc. Also had some Nice baked goods and a real cool vibe. You could sit inside or outside. When we were. There was pretty hot so we stayed inside, but it's a hopping place. Lots of people on their laptops, apple parking and again, a really great vibe to the place. People that work. There were really nice and we would absolutely come back.

There is almost always a line snaking through the shop to place your order, but the staff is genuinely hustling hard to move people along. Once you get through the queue, you grab your drink and wait for them to call your name from the kitchen. It is a familiar routine for a reliable morning fuel up. Truth be told, this particular visit turned into a bit of a comedy of errors. I ordered a Cool River Burrito with chorizo, but the kitchen lost the ticket entirely. When they finally sorted that out, they failed to pack it to go as requested, so it ended up being a bit of a messy situation overall. To add to the frustration, the outdoor tables were pretty neglected. None of them had been wiped down or cleared, and unfortunately they were the only spots available to sit. Honestly, the food itself usually redeems the bumps in the road. When the burrito did show up, it was tasty and plenty big enough to satisfy a massive appetite, packed full of hearty ingredients and that chorizo punch. The interior space is definitely on the cramped side, but it manages to feel cute and features a nice modern vibe. Despite the logistical hiccups, the crew working the counter is incredibly kind and busting their humps to keep up with the rush. It remains a great, dependable spot to grab breakfast and a solid coffee drink when you are in town.

It's a perfect warm weather visit for ice cream, milkshakes, sundaes, smoothies, or affogatos. I really liked the Purple Mountain ice cream flavor. Cold weather? Ice cream is still good ;) but they also have espresso drinks (with Buena Vista Roastery beans) and desserts. The entire space is very Instagram-able and can even be rented out for kids parties. My main gripe - they really need a deep clean of the seating and playground areas. Some of the benches show signs of wear but it may just be that they need a good cleaning. The kids play area really shows it since a lot of it is white. Some of the balls in the ball pit are smashed, and there were crumbs of food inside (food isn't allowed in the play area, tsk tsk). They have playground rules posted but they're actually hard to see - they should be placed in a more prominent location so parents can read before their kids play. Also it's very quiet inside if it's not full of people - some background music wouldn't hurt :)
