First timer! So content I chose this place for me and my cousins to visit before heading to Pike's Peak. We've gone to two different coffee shops during our stay in Colorado before coming here. Let's just say we wouldn't have minded coming to Corter Coffee Roasters every day instead of the other coffee shops we went to. The manager, LIANA, is the most pleasant person we've met on this trip. First of all, all our drinks (caramel latte's and chai latte) were BOMB. I had to tell myself to not chug my latte because it was so good. She shared places that we should visit considering we are not from here. This helped so much because a lot of our plans fell through. The bathrooms are for paying guests and they are clean and convenient. Liana, thank you for the true Southern hospitality radiating through. My cousins and I truly appreciate your kindness, conversation, and realness! read more

First, let's talk about the coffee. We are not easily impressed with coffee shops since we roast our own beans. That being said, the coffee here is impressive. They roast onsite and the pulled shots are smooth and full bodied. I got a mocha latte, and it was topped with blue whipped cream- a nod to earth referred to as a pale blue dot- a nice touch! The whole menu has scientific references, and it's fun to look around at the related decor. The staff here are also very knowledgeable and friendly- this place has it all. Can't wait to see what color the whipped cream will be next time! read more

Okay, Corter Coffee Roasters is a whole vibe. Stopped in while visiting Colorado Springs and I'm already planning my next trip back. We got the a spring special which was a thin mint shaken espresso. Yes, it's as good as it sounds! And we also got the Red Dwarf with dark chocolate and raspberry. Both were light iced, both were fire. Next visit I'm going in for the Concentrated Dark Matter. The staff? Super friendly and chill. The place has a cozy, creative energy, plus they sell cute stickers and fun little extras. You can tell they care about fun. If you're into good coffee and good people, this is your spot. 10/10 would sip again. read more

First time coming here and was not disappointed at all. I got the Carmel Sagan and my wife got a matcha with raspberry flavor and they both were so good! The lady taking orders was very sweet and nice. It's a nice and quiet place as well so if you need to do work or just relax it's the perfect environment. 10/10 I will be visiting again. read more

Best coffee in Colorado Springs. The coffee is blended real smooth and their americanos are made well and strong. The lady that took care of us is very kind and welcoming. Prices are fair. They also have a variety of baked goods and sweets. I'd definitely recommend to anyone looking for some good quality coffee. It is wheelchair accessible and has a ton of parking space. Clean in the inside and kept well maintained. read more

Great service and a great coffee! I also loved their Chai Lattes. I've been in Colorado Springs for about 2 months for work and I would say this is the best local coffee shop in town! read more

A small cute shop with spunk. Love the messages and puns all around the shop. The barista is super sweet and helps you pick a drink, they have an assortment of coffee cocktails too. The cold brew was dark roast and the flavor was bold . Ended up buying the beans . read more

Good service. Friendly people. I only bought bagged coffee, which was solid, drinkable.

This place is soooo cute! I love how everything is chill and decorated, and the drinks on the menu are named after astronomy/physics things! Also, if you get the Caramel Sagan, they can make it really pretty, but hot or cold, it's great. I would come here again for the service alone! Everyone is so sweet and exuberating nothing but good vibes. read more

The coffee was amazing! We are traveling and wanted a small little local spot. The ladies behind the counter were great both times we went. Yes I got it on e during our stay and my family loved it so of course we have to go for a 2nd round. The cookie was a little dry, but the banana muffin was much better. Thank you Corter Coffee Roasters for the great pick me up! read more

Formerly under the name of Inertia Coffee is now known as Corter Coffee Roasters. The signage outside will say Corter Coffee Roasters but on Yelp, you'll find it as Inertia Coffee. As you open the door upon entering, you get a nice woof of coffee smell because they roast their own coffee here. The concept here is super cute and scientific. If you stay there, your coffee will be served out of a beaker. This was our second coffee stop in one day so this time I got an iced decaf honey lavender latte. Even though it's decaf, it still had the strong bold flavors and reminded me of Vietnamese coffee. It was even topped with a hint of lavender color whip cream! read more

With no fewer than three coffee shops in a three block area, Corter Coffee deserves your attention as a cafe that actually roasts their own coffee. Located in an unassuming strip mall, Corter Coffee is rather nondescript on the outside. Upon entering, you are greeted with a homely, comfy space perfect for gathering or working. However, what deserves attention are burlap bags upon bags of green coffee and roaster behind the counter. This, people, is what sets Corter apart from its peers: freshly own-roasted coffee beans directly to your coffee cup. They offer two different single origin coffees on tap, with multitude others available as pour over or French press. I tried two different preparations with two different coffees and they were both fresh and delicious. Oh yeah, the barista was friendly as well! read more

Coffee is good. Chai is good. Staff are super friendly. Seating area and restrooms are clean. I love the addition of comfy chairs. The space is really conducive to meeting with a friend, getting work done, or just reading alone. They have some pastries and treat available for purchase. You can purchase roasted coffee beans. Would love more sugar-free options but they have more than the vanilla and caramel that the big chain is limited to. I do miss the beakers as cups though... read more

I am just visiting in Colorado right now, and I was thoroughly impressed with this place! This seems to be a great local place to pick up some coffee. The white dwarf was absolutely delicious, I recommend it! There are plenty of creative specialty drinks, which I love. Although I didn't get to try them, there is a small selection of pastries as well if you wanted something to snack on. The only negative is that it was really confusing to find. The name inertia coffee company was no where, it was under a different name. (Corter coffee company I believe) So I was a little confused. Other than that I would definitely check this place out! read more

I was looking for a coffee place that isn't a chain to try after my 5am workout and found this one on yelp. I walked in and it was not busy at all but they had just been open for maybe 30 mins. The one lady behind the counter, wasn't the friendliest but wasn't rude. I had to figure out where the menu is at and after looking for it for a few moments the lady finally told me it was behind me so if you've never been here, look for the menu behind you. The drink I had was called the curiosity and it was good but a bit pricey in my opinion. Overall a good place. I'd probably stop by again but for me it isn't a must go to place. read more

The reviews do not lie. This place is absolutely AWESOME. We got the golden ratio and the caramel Sagan. Both very delicious. Service was great too. We were helped by Emmie (I hope I spelled that right) super sweet. Next time we're in the area, definitely coming back :) read more

I am a huge nerd and lover of all things science, so when my dad told me he drove by a new coffee shop I should check out, I googled Corter Coffee Roasters immediately, and went 5 minutes later! All their drinks have super cool and sciencey names, my favorite is the Caramel Sagan, which comes topped with their super fluffy blue dyed whipped cream! You can actually taste sea salt in this latte and it amplifies the flavor so much! I also got a custom creation which was a cold brew with maple pancake and butterscotch flavored syrups! Their cold brew is really strong, and they were super nice about letting me try it out with the amount of cream and flavoring to make sure it was to my liking! They always dress up the drinks so beautifully and it's honestly such an amazing experience everytning because you can tell how much the baristas and owners love what they do! read more

Well the place is just off the beaten path, but the staff is really friendly and there wasn't a wait. They in-house roast their beans, but it was a darker roast than I prefer (closer to Starbucks flavor). Would be a great place to work for a day. read more

My husband loves a good espresso and it is hard to find on the road. So he was very happy to get a great macchiato at Corter Coffee Roasters. The space was very laid back, the coffee makers were very friendly and very knowledgeable about coffee. A plus was a sweet golden retriever hanging out there with his human. We we definitely stop again! read more

My husband and I were visiting the area from outta state, the lady working gave us suggestions for area and we checked out the the great sand dunes National park because of her kindness we had the best day.. it was a drive but totally worth it.

I commuted down to Colorado Springs from Denver for work for two weeks of this month. I was planning on trying several different coffee places, but after I came upon Inertia Coffee on day 2, it was Inertia Coffee every day after that. I chose Inertia because they roast their own coffee. I kept coming back for three reasons. 1: coffee was great. Had the cold brew every morning and was not disappointed. 2: service was great. After coming for only one morning, staff the next day remembered what I ordered. Staff were also consistently friendly/kind to everyone who came in, not just regulars/locals. 3. Adorable science fiction themed stuff. Cute signs, funny illustrations, etc. Loved it. I bought a pound to take back to Denver with me--look forward to trying it. I would highly recommend Inertia Coffee to anyone in the area! read more

My absolute favorite coffee place! Veteran owned with amazingly friendly staff. I crave their perpetual motion drink all the time! Very neat and comfortable place to hang out with a friend over a cup of great coffee. They offer discounts to active military, first responders and students. They also have a reward system that gives us discounts all the time! read more
