Before heading back to Denver to catch a flight, my daughter and I stopped here to grab some morning drinks. I ordered a spicy ice chai tea latte and my daughter ordered a hot chocolate. The spicy chai tea latte was really good but it tasted watered down. My daughter's hot chocolate was good. The barista was super nice and answered my questions. I would come back here again if I'm in the area in the future. read more

Stopped in after a run, groovy/chill ambience. Americano hit the spot, and appreciated the barista's suggestion on the Vanilla latte. But for a caffeine-starved wife, I would have stayed and enjoyed the photos for sale there. read more

Great for a quick stop for coffee and light breakfast- we got a pumpkin spice latte and a red eye coffee - both were exceptional- the spinach feta croissant was delicious - the blueberry peach scone was superb- if your passing through Salina - check this hot coffee place out! read more

This establishment has the very best espresso pours in the whole town! The atmosphere is cozy and there's lots of comfortable places to chill and read or work. The staff is very friendly and they remember their regulars. read more

Some of the best coffee, breakfast burritos (get the salsa), and pastries (peach scone was off the charts good)! I've been to a TON of coffee shops and ran across this on a road trip. Service wasn't spectacular, but totally worth the coffee and food! read more

The best coffee beans and beans he service is excellant. I can't buy coffee from retail stores because I'm addicted to this fresh new delightful coffee beans. Several different roasts and flavors. read more

I bought some Sumatra at a shop in Salida. The only thing I'll say is it wasn't bitter. There was no real flavor to it. I ground my own, brewed with a french press & tried a variety of strengths. I was Disappointed & would not recommend it at $14 per 12 oz. Good luck read more

We stopped by this coffee shop and we found the coffee to be great. We were a little hesitant because there hadn't been any reviews for over a year, but we took a chance and we're glad we did. My husband had a cappuccino and I had a Mexican mocha. They were both delicious. They also serve pastries and breakfast burritos but we didn't have any food. read more

Cute smallish place, expert barista, wide range of coffees and they roast their own beans. I had a Mexican mocha that was awesome. Husband had Americano and he is very impressed. Reasonable prices. Lots of locals. WiFi. Nice restrooms. Convenient parking. read more

The espresso here is STRONG! You always k ow when you walk in and you can't tell if the barista is high or not and then you drink a coffee and find out what he's really on. Awe, some. I didn't feel like coffee and asked about tea. He pointed to the tea bags and then after I asked again he brought out the secret jar of matcha and let me smell it. Oh yes. That was exactly what I wanted. I had it with water not milk and added honey and it too was strong. Highly recommended. read more

We were on vacation in Colorado and seeking a local place to enjoy our morning coffee. When we arrived at Sacred Grounds, we entered right as they opened at 7 am. On both our visits, they were immediately busy. There are two things that are important to me in a coffee shop. The first is the quality of the regular coffee, particularly the dark roast. I am not easily pleased, as I am a bit of a coffee snob. Both brews we tried were excellent. We had both the Firestarter and the Sumatra. Both were smooth, rich and sufficiently strong. The second thing that matters to me is the customer service. When I mentioned a minor issue to the manager, he was kind and responsive and went out of his way to make sure we were satisfied. I am rarely impressed with a coffee shop and review them rarely. But if you are in the Salida area, this is a great place to start your day. read more

Invited to visit Mountain Phoenix, we stopped in on the way back East. Wow! What an amazing and pleasant difference from the same place, with a different name, we visited last September. So bright and warm, and the lighting that highlights the various artist on every wall makes the atmosphere that much more intimate and special. Barista Cassie really knows her magic ingredients. Coffee is next to amazing. We pretty much tasted every single ingredient. While we ate our breakfast burrito, It was nice to see everyone that walked in had a name and maybe even a routine; each grabbed their breakfast item, and ordered their usual. Friends walked in and said hi to each other. What an awesome experience at 7am traveling though Salida, CO. read more

Stopped in Salida over night and was craving a good chai, my partner & I got the mazzy chai, spicy and sweet at the same time! I got extra vanilla & raspberry syrup because I'm a sweet tooth but my partner loved the spice kick from the chai! Would love to try their speciality mochas next time I stop by in this town. read more

Best latte I've had in a long time! I stopped by here after going to another local coffee shop, which was in the creative district, and had a very underwhelming almond milk latte. I was wanting a good drink before getting back on the road for a 4 hour long drive so did some googling and found this place. It was on my way out of town so I decided to stop by. The location is different, kind of a stand alone building right off a major road not close to any shops or restaurants or anything. Not Not walkable to anything if you're wanting to grab a drink and stroll through town, but I didn't mind. The barista was very friendly and you could tell she knew what she was doing. Definitely not a average coffee type place. I ordered a oatly milk latte and my girlfriend got a mazzy chai. Both were delicious! Next time I am in town I will definitely be back. Judy a heads up they do close at 2pm. read more

Awesome hometown coffee shop with everything you could ever want. Fantastic cold brew! Awesome spot inside to get work done or observe some local artwork. There is parking in the front with additional parking in the back. There is also a really nice back patio with a small table with chairs and a large picnic table. This is going to be my coffee spot for sure! Let it be yours as well! read more

Drove from Colorado Springs to Gunnison, stopped in Salida to go for a quick hike (Race Track Trail) and happily found this spot for a coffee/bite. The coffee was so great, I went back in and bought a pound of coffee. Great atmosphere, clean, welcoming staff and quality product. read more

Wonderful coffee (dark and medium - self serve) and ambience. Breakfast burritos are good too!

A cute little mountain town coffee shop with very nice service and great coffee. They had good deals during the week and had pounds of coffee beans for purchase too. Their pastries were good and it seemed like a good place to do some work or warm up after a cold day in the mountains. read more

Was stoked to try this because of the reviews. Cute atmosphere but I hate wasting money on tasteless coffee. Ordered 2 mochas & was so disappointed. Watery & hardly tasted any espresso/chocolate. Such a bummer. read more

I'll join the Aztec Mocha Lovers Club. The coffee is strong, fresh and delicious, the chocolate is robust and that kick of cayenne gives a lovely bite. My kids loved the vanilla lattes. We all appreciated the kind, quick service. read more

Oh yum! Its small coffeehouse stature encloses a few tables, a desk with Internet access, and a gas stove in the middle of the room. They serve up a tasty cup o' joe made from organic beans. They don't have much in the way of food selection, but their focus is on the drinks. Enjoy! Times visited: 1 read more

Drove through here on a road trip from Texas and was the most brief pleasant experience! The sign on the door that said "don't be rude, say hi" and it immediately made me smile! I walked in and the gentleman greeted me. I went to order and asked about their Mexican Aztec drink because it said cayenne pepper and it intrigued me. He was sure to tell me it's one of their more popular drinks, so duh I ordered it! He made it quick and served it up and gave me some helpful tips to not die sipping the cayenne pepper at the end of my drink. Thank you for creating such a cheerful energy throughout your shop! Definitely a place I'll remember read more

Stopped for coffee on the way to the slopes. Super friendly barista. Had the Aztec mocha for the first time and would try it again. The breakfast burrito was hot and filling and the salsa was memorable. Will stop again! read more

We've been coming here for years for their Aztec mochas, a delicious latte made with Mexican cocoa and a touch of cayenne. Heaven!

Really good coffee and quick service atmosphere as rather dark but I'm sure some of this had to do with Covid. That being said please make your customers wear their mask..... read more
