What a fun spot! Caffeinated Cow has a range of delicious ice cream flavors - I'd highly recommend ginger and millionaires - and creative coffee drinks, all at great prices. Even the cotton candy ice cream that my niece ordered was delightful and far more subtly-flavored than anticipated. $2.75 for a bukaroo ice cream cone? Yes, please, every day of the week! The teenage male employee working when we visited was friendly and welcoming, offering generous samples. And the staff "mooos" for tipping are such a cute, memorable touch! read more

This place was very gimmicky and felt like your average ice cream parlor. It was decked out in cow themed decor. I decided to try the "caffeinated cow" which was basically a hot latte dumped all over a scoop of your choice of ice cream. It did not go very well together and I was getting sips of Luke warm coffee and sometimes I would get a taste of the ice cream. Not my favorite spot but that's just my honest opinion of this place. read more

My favorite local spot in Colorado Springs! I go here for coffee all the time, Caffeinated Cow has the best Cold Brew I've had. Their cold brew tastes so smooth and it gets me through the day! The service is impeccable, and it sets the whole tone of my day! Remember "friends don't let friends buy starbucks" and "Thank you for cow tipping! Mooooooo :)" read more

Really fun place and the food/drink were delicious. I had a breakfast burrito and warm chai from Caffeinated Cow. The staff was really nice and the atmosphere was casual and fun enough to entertain a 3 year old while we waited. I took the burrito and drink home and both were still hot when I got there after the 10 minute drive. The burrito was very delicious and I wish I had had more! The chai tea was so good that I wish I had more time on my trip to Colorado to go back and get another one. read more

If you want a sense of community, a team who always has a smile on their faces, and a mooing good time, Caffeinated Cow is the go to. I have tried a handful of sandwiches, coffee drinks, mad cows (redbull infused), and their ice creams. Highly recommend!

After a hike, we were craving ice cream! We pulled over and typed ice cream into google maps and the Caffeinated Cow was the first place to pop up. It looked like it had good reviews so off we went! The inside is super cute, with cow decor everywhere. My personal favorite was the cow doing different yoga poses. They have all of their different flavors on display and the employee working was more than happy to let us sample the different options. I ended up getting a single of banana cream pie and graham cracker ice cream in a waffle cup. Oh. My. God. The banana cream pie ice cream was INCREDIBLE. I wish I didn't live in California so I could get this ice cream on the regular. This amazing ice cream paired with the wonderful customer service made me so happy that we tried this place out!! read more

Service was fast and friendly. They even tell Dad jokes if you leave a tip!…read moreWe split the Mountaineer, vanilla custard blended with raspberries with the center filled with hot fudge. It was so good. The hot fudge ran out too fast but the raspberry custard was amazing so no big deal. They have tables around the side of the building with nice views.

There are different seasonal flavors available. I ordered the vanilla custard and it was so creamy and delicious! It melted very fast since it was such a hot day. Definitely a great place to stop for a cool treat while exploring the quaint shops in Manitou Springs! Happy Eating!

What a treasure! This is the perfect spot for families. We happened upon it after the wait at a nearby restaurant was too long for my preschooler. My daughter was fascinated with the delightful cow decor and even more pleased with a chocolate muffin almost the size of her head:) I had the most delicious blt of my life. The iced coffee was delicious and ice cream so flavorful and creamy. With a wide cariety of sandwiches and desserts it is for everyone. The staff was so courteous and genuinely happy to be at work. There was a nice diaper changing table in the bathroom and they were unfazed by the mess of muffin we left. Check this place out for sure! read more

This is the best ice cream I've ever had, I definitely recommend. Although I would like if the orange vanilla swirl was in the store a little more. I would also definitely recommend their milkshakes, ( my fav is the orange vanilla swirl as a milk shake with whipped cream on the top) and that's all I had to say about this amazing ice cream restaurant. read more

This coffee shop is a hidden gem. The owners are doing great work and keeping small business alive. Don't just come for the ice cream! The coffee is amazing and although it doesn't list it on the menu they do have cold brew. Great energy and community here! read more

Location was easy to find, open on a holiday (Labor Day), with a good selection of drinks as well as a food menu. Service was personable and friendly, and even the regulars in line with us made recommendations and conversation. We got the Raspberry Cheesecake Coldbrew (a featured special) and a hot chai latte (purported to be the best in town), at around $12. Both drinks were really tasty, and I like that the cold brew was balanced out by the flavored cold cream so it wasn't too bitter or too sweet. Hoping to come back again next time we're in town, since they're right down the street from my inlaws.

We stopped by and when i entered, omgosh I loved that coffee smell when you first open the door and knew this was gonna be a banger! I would consider myself a matcha enthusiast (and so does my brother who came with me). I ordered an iced matcha latte with oat milk and the matcha does come unsweetened! So, there was a syrup customization menu, and wow there was so many, but I love honey so I decided to get that, My brother ended up choosing the strawberry syrup with his iced matcha (which supposedly was popular), regular milk, and topped with cold foam on top. The girl who helped us was super sweet btw, I think they all were when we entered. :) Now, for the taste and overall matcha experience I would say mine was decently okay, yknow typical coffee shop matcha, it was good. For my brother's experience, he didn't like his since the color came out weird and he thought the strawberry syrup took over the matcha flavor. Overall, if I ever go back again to Colorado Springs I would definitely try their coffee, but it was a great coffee shop hopping experience!

Ordered an iced latte both times. The most recent was an Iced Brown Sugar Oatmilk Latte - it was average. Also ordered the Turkey Club Panini on the last visit and was underwhelmed. Loved the location and coziness inside - feels tucked away but close to a lot of things in town. Staff has always been friendly. I'll definitely be back, just need to figure out my go-tos!

The carmel pretzel had the texture I look for in a milkshake as well as the taste. My wife had the vegan oreo which wasn't as good but nice that they have vegan options. There was some seating on the side but in a bit of a tight space and the atmosphere you would expect from a fast food stop. We liked being able to have it there but it was kind of moot since they didn't have glass cups and metal straws. The staff was very friendly and the service was fast so absolutly no complaints there. They are also on the crafts and drafts pass so even though it was more than i usually pay for a milkshake, that made it very affordable and got us to go in the first place

Not only do they have ridiculously rich and delicious milkshakes but also incredible chocolates and candies. I wasn't going to try, but they tempted me with a sample and then that turned into.....welllllllll I guess I need a bar and then that lovely girl asked if I wanted to take advantage of their sale if I purchased two more to get a discount, so ya I went home with three! The place is impeccably clean and has a beautiful case full of treats and gifts to tantalize plus there are charming tables to dine in if you wish to do so. Service was great and came with suggestions and even an opportunity to join their rewards club which is smart so that people will return. Though, with just one taste of the tasty treats I'm sure most people would happily return!
