Stumbled upon this gem while just driving through. Great food, great vibe and then grabbed sandwiches on the way out to take on a hike.

A good place for coffee and/or breakfast. We came here on a morning trip into Estes Park. John Shepherd was playing guitar while the rest of us were slowly sipping on our coffee and inviting the day. Service is down to earth and pleasant. I'm glad the girls behind the counter were not all in my face about ordering quick. haha. I'll have to return next time and show up far earlier. They run out of items quick. I made that note in my head after I saw a lot of items crossed off the menu. My latte came out standard. Gave me enough pep to continue on our journey to Estes Park for the day. Definitely leaving this place on the radar for next time. Outdoor and indoor seating are great options. The overall vibe is great! read more

This review is more for the establishment and vibes as we didn't get to try their pastries. We just stopped by for coffee and it was forgettable. I got an iced americano with honey syrup and it was weak, so weak, so sad. Awesome patio there and even some tables in the parking lot. I was surprised to hear some live music on a Saturday morning, can we normalize that please?? Now that I know where this is, I will be stopping by for some carbs next time I'm in Lyons! read more

A coffee shop and bakery so I'm sure they are busy, but he place is filthy inside and out. How gross. Otherwise cute.

Wow what an amazing place and view! This adorable coffee shop had it all. Friendly Baristas, excellent coffee, the best cinnamon roll I've ever tasted in my life! I just wish I had more time to spend there. Alas, I was on a Rocky Mt. tour and we only stopped for a little while. If I'm ever in town again this will be my first stop. read more

A review is a only as good as the person how has experience in what they are reviewing. I am a world traveling bakery experiencer. In my 30+ year of trying bakeries and sour doughs and croissants I have to say this place is outstanding. Lyons itself is very relaxed, mountain town vibes. If you are familiar with California it's very Topanga Canyon, if you are familiar with Mexico it's very Tulum vibes. It's a beauty welcoming earthy bakery as a bakery should be. And delicious which is the most important. read more

Cute local bakery with awesome vibes and occasional live music. I really liked grabbing a beer and some pastries to enjoy on the patio. My friend and I got the kouin amann (hopefully I'm spelling it right) and it really is something special: super crispy and just the right amount of sweet. Would highly recommend! read more

I love the ambiance of this place. Rustics decor, local bands playing in the corner, lots of locals hanging out there. The service is quick and friendly. They have a wide variety of drinks and breads. I really enjoyed my muffin, but my daughter found her croissant too hard. My family liked their coffee. I tried a lavender sage tea that was a little too heavy on the herbs and I didn't care for it; might be my own personal taste. I would definitely come back here to try other things. read more

Was a great little place that had an impromptu fiddle and guitar jam session. I had a delicious, double baked croissant

Always a go-to fave. Incredibly delicious pastries and food. Oh so local friendly and feel good vibes all around.

Excellent flat white - I mean really excellent. Cinnamon croffin was the perfect accompaniment. Cute coffee shop and good vibe inside and Lyons makes for a really good stop-off on the way to Estes Park. read more

Possibly the most perfect coffee shop. The coffee was amazing and the baked goods were call-home-to-mom good. Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful. read more

I was in today 8/19/25 and while waiting in line a guy that knew the barista came in behind me and they started talking. She offered to take his order before mine and made it ahead of me. I felt this was so rude and went against everything the founders of the cafe were all about. Will I go back? Yes. will I ever tip again? Not it a chance. BTY, both the blond barista and her friend were fully aware I was in line waiting. The baked goods are still great and not made at the Lyons location. read more

Let me say right away that this review is specifically for Moxie's Dark Rye Bread, NOT Moxie Bread Company in general, which I truly like very much-- lovely people, wonderful space, and the majority of baked goods are quite fine. The Dark Rye loaf itself is particularly small-ish whose straight sidewall measured exactly 2-5/8" tall, yet the heft of the loaf in its entirety can not be believed! When handed to me at checkout, my hand fell to the counter. It is as if the bakers have placed a black hole in the mix of each loaf, the weight of a thousand loaves in each one. Simply put and all joking aside, this is bar-none the heaviest bread per sq. in. I have ever had. The crust is not just hard, it was so impenetrable with our bread knife, I had to use a frighteningly sharp steak knife (with teeth a great white shark would be jealous of) to hack through the body. Before purchasing this Dark Rye Bread, I had no misconception that Moxie's Dark Rye is not a classic European-style rye bread, even though the description on the wall stated as much. Filled with pepitas & sunflowers, this hippie-dippie version harks back fondly to my days growing up in Woodstock, NY. If you're looking for a Jewish Rye with bountiful pops of carraway, or any other style of traditional rye bread found in the best bakeries, you'll have to look elsewhere. Without that wonderful combination of a distinctive hard crust and a supple elastic inner texture, this bohemian rustic rye seemingly from days of antiquity is a different animal altogether. I will say that If you're skilled enough to slice a thin piece that can fit in your toaster, you will be rewarded with a super tasty treat when slathered with butter. I just wish the overall experience was worth the pricey mini-loaf. One final disclosure, my partner thought that this particular loaf was possibly burnt. I agree it may have been slightly over done, but not by much past the intent, which is why I have included a color & exposure-corrected photo (~2/3 of the loaf length shown) for everyone to make their own judgement. read more

Lyons, CO. This updated review is to hopefully catch the owners attention to a detail that can reflect on his business as a whole, if he cares. Ok it is festival time and everyone is hustling and doing a very good job keeping our line moving. On Friday morning our lattes were perfect. Rich and bold with the espresso bean flavors jumping forward. Just wonderful. On Saturday morning our latte cups (We bring our own cups) sat on top of the machine for quite awhile before being attended to. Our resultant lattes were weak and cold, tasted like a dim coffee flavored milk. On Sunday morning our cups again had the scenic view from the top of the machine. I witnessed the espresso shots being poured but then they were poured out and once again rested atop the machine. On this day our lattes were hot, but again weak. They tasted like hot milk with a hint of coffee. On Monday morning we thought we could avoid the milky beverage by ordering an extra shot of espresso in each, a total of three shots. This was clearly repeated back to us by the cashier. What we got was weak lukewarm milk. They did not give us the extra shot even though we paid extra. I sincerely regretted giving these people a tip. One star for this experience, plus one for the great Friday morning latte (When I saw the owner there) , and also the wonderful premade turkey pesto sandwiches. read more

Love supporting small businesses in small towns. A bit pricey but room for me and my blind Pug. Kudos to the team.

I recently visited the Lyons location to purchase GF bread which had many raves. I was introduced to Moxies by my neighbor who has been getting GF bread for me from the farmers market. The selection of bread was outstanding as was the service of the staff. I purchased 2 loaves (tho I was concerned that nothing was dated with expira. date.) I also purchased prewrapped brownies, which were at the register. VERY DISAPPOINTING! When I tried to cut into it, it broke into many pieces and crumbled. Had to eat it with spoon. very disappointing experience, based on quality of brownie. Now I wonder about the freshness of the bread. This was my first visit to Moxies and dont think I'll return.

This place had affordable pricing. They have fresh baked goods. They do have a nice cafe type seating area and an outdoor area, too. You order at the register and they give the food to you. If you want something quick to eat and are running low on time, this is the spot to go to. Got the Jerusalem bagel here, and it hit the spot. They give you a choice between butter and cream cheese. Had it without either of those. The butter pecan toffee cookie was fresh and good. They serve a variety of nonalcoholic drinks here, too. read more

I stopped in on my way up to Estes and enjoyed it so much I stopped back in on my way back down. The croissant-muffin with cinnamon and sugar was delish! read more

What a welcoming and warm spot to stop for breakfast or lunch. They have bread loaves you can purchase, baked goods (hot from their bakery!), wide section of coffee and sandwiches. I got their breakfast sandwich and although I'm not one to eat mine with green chili, this one didn't bother me. Also, their coffee was very, good read more

This is cute spot to get coffee and a pastry in Lyons. Definitely hippie vibes! There are candles, incense, crystals and other things for sale. I ordered an almond milk pumpkin spice latte, and it seemed to have been made with real pumpkin. There is ample seating inside. In addition to coffee and tea, this place sells beer and wine. They also have kombucha on tap. There are loaves of bread, and yummy pastries as well. I didn't get a pastry, this time but they looked great! I didn't see any gluten-free pastries when I was there. This would be a good place to stop before a hike for snacks and drinks. Check it out next time you're in the area! read more

Amazing breakfast panini and breads! Loved the cozy dining area and eclectic decor! Farmers Market day was a plus and so enjoyable!

This place is 10/10 on every level. The atmosphere. The service. The quality. The amazing little items they have for sale. The music playing in the background. The cozy seating. The location. Stopped in for a cappuccino and chocolate chip cookie; coffee was top notch. They sell beans from local roasters as well. Get there earlier for best selection of baked goods. I cannot recommend this perfect shop enough. You will not be disappointed! read more

This place has got it going on! Busy as can be, excellent coffees, lattes, teas, pastries, bread, house made syrups for coffee and drinks, sandwiches. Friendly service, great location. Cool vibe to hang out and study, surf or chill on the patio. Wish this place great success at their new location read more

Everything wildly expensive. No cup of black coffee should cost $5. They didn't even fill it as requested... I requested no room but there was about an inch to the top... they filled the coffee and walked away, so I left frustrated at the marginal service. read more

I've loved the Moxie in Louisville for years, and this location is a bit different but equally excellent! Good sandwiches and take & bake dinners ready in the fridge, amazing breads & pastries, and great coffee beverages, all in a place with a cool vibe. On our visit in late March, there was a sign that they're moving soon, I'm sure it'll be just as good. read more

If you're a perfect cup of coffee, I will find you! This is a must-stop if you're on your way to RMNP or staying at WeeCasa. This place is not what you'd expect in a small mountain town and it should be on your coffee destination tour because it's that good!! And timing is everything. I walked in on a Saturday morning to a mostly empty pastry case and pondering if I'd slept too late, readying myself to choose one of the remaining cookies. And then, as if divine intervention, the pastries arrive. Trays of almond croissants, cinnamon and pecans rolls, these savory square- everything called my name. The almond croissant was filled, end to end. Paired with a balanced cup of coffee, this was the best start to my Saturday. read more

Very cute coffee and pastry/bread shop. We stayed in the area on a trip and stopped by every morning for breakfast and coffee. The egg bites and pastries were delicious. Highly recommend! read more

Gorgeous little cafe tucked into the foothills of the Rocky Mountains. Absolutely delightful place to come visit and enjoy the beautiful mountains all around. Had the Miele latte (honey, cinnamon, and orange blossom) and a pecan cinnamon roll (with amazing orange notes to it!). Both were delicious and honestly, the cinnamon was almost too pretty to eat. Obvi I did though and it was one of the best I've ever had (perfect blend of soft but still had a little crunch on the outside - highly recommend). The folks working were kind and efficient. Love they have wifi too. Definitely would recommend people stop by here and enjoy the food, bevs, and beautiful scenery. read more

Had the breakfast sandwich with hatches green chili's. Yum!!! I ate it before I could take a pic. Also, had the spinach ricotta croissant. So flaky and fresh. read more

This is my first time visiting Colorado and my friend showed me this place. There is a great selection of food and drink, which I was pleasantly surprised! I got the King Egg based on a recommendation. It was definitely delicious, but I wasn't fully aware of what was in it. It had egg, mushrooms and yellow squash. The menu only said that it had egg and veggies. So the veggie part was a bit of a mystery. (It was also difficult to see the description on the menu so I really didn't have any idea what was in it at first). My only negative would be that there is no clear indication anywhere of what veggies were going to be in it. I'm not allergic to mushrooms but I don't really have a liking to them so being caught off guard isn't the best. My recommendation is that if the veggies are like a seasonal thing, there should be a sign somewhere stating what veggies are in the King Egg at that time. I also got a lemonade with lavender syrup and it was SO GOOD! The lemonade was not too tart but not too sweet and the lavender was just perfect! Would absolutely get that again. The overall vibe of this place is great. I really did enjoy it and will likely be back next time I'm in Colorado. read more

On a road trip and found this little gem of a coffee shop. Excellent espresso drinks (the batista said they source their beans out of Eagle, CO) and yummy baked goods. They also have some grab & go salads and sandwiches and an assortment of cold single serve beverages. I really liked the vibe of this place. The only bummer is that they had to close for the day at 4 p.m. and I would have loved to linger longer. read more

They moved locations to just off Main Street and now called moxie bread co. But let me tell you how good this pastry was. Sat outside in the sun eating this on a Sunday morning gave me the perfect spring vibes. Would definitely go back when I am next in Lyons. Highly recommend for breakfast when in the area. read more

How' fortunate are we to have a place like Moxie in our purview! The fresh bread is the reason we go, but there are always delectable pastries, beverages and lovely home cooked take and bake's in the (little) refrigerator. Get there early, their artisinal sells out fast each day! read more

Pain au chocolat was buttery and flaky, but filling was a bit on the scant side. Service was friendly but inattentive, I had to remind them multiple times of my order and they were more interested in talking to each other than the customers. A little pricey for what it is, but its a mountain town and in this economy I don't hold many high hopes for value these days. read more

Uniquely decorated café bakery, with a lot of Mexican art motifs and comfy seating that makes you feel you are visiting a friend and having coffee. I had a café latte which was strong and flavorful, and ham and cheese croissant sandwich, with a superbly tasty,buttery, and flaky croissant. Both for about $10. The breads for sale looked good although expensive.The staff was friendly and efficient. Free street parking is available a short walk away. read more

This review is for Main St. Lyons CO!!! I almost drove back to Boulder, hahah but a friend set me straight! Ok...pastries. These are some of the best I've had. Ever. I've been to France, Italy, and Switzerland. I live in a town of Italian immigrants...with lots of bakeries. This place blew me away. Streamlined, nature inspired decor, deconstructed outdoor hang space under the trees. Mystic peek-a boo views of the surrounding mountains. Set back enough from the road that it's kinda fun to watch the Main Street traffic. Also!! fantastic cappuccino (authentic espresso to milk ratio) and Latte (more my speed in terms of caffeine intake). Bread looked great, but I couldn't really try any. Seemed like a good, mellow spot to do work or write (which I did on a different day), or have a quiet (relatively) conversation with friends (which I also had). Glad a friend showed me where it was at...because it's maybe easy to not quite understand this semi-industrial looking building / old bike shop building is now housing A Coffee/Bakery/a mercantile w/ some of the best pastry (and maybe coffee) in all of Colorado for sure. Maybe in The West. If you're on the way to RMNP / Estes. Fuel up, buy some bread, pastry, coffee...all the things, and then Do it again in your way back out!! if your here for vacation or festivals, make some time head over to Moxie. read more

Loved this place so much I stopped twice at Lyons and then at the Louisville location while traveling around Colorado for a week. Great atmosphere, delicious pastries and drinks.

This was a great stop on our way to Rocky Mtn Natl Park from the airport! Super cute downtown area. Even in the morning there seemed to be ample street parking. Space inside was tight, but there was enough seating. Absolutely DELICIOUS and unique pastries!!! We also go sandwiches to go to eat on our hike later, which worked out perfectly, even the fact that they were wrapped tightly in waxed paper. We also loved their SPICY chai, which really was spicy and so delicious. Highly recommend in you're in the area, especially if you have a day of exploring planned. read more
