    Raven's Roast is such a cute and cozy little Victorian inspired café. The service was quick and the staff there got my order ready in no time. They had a great holiday menu, and from that I got a sugar cookie latte which was REALLY good!

    Clean bathrooms (for customers only)!

    This is my favorite coffee shop that I visited in Estes park (and I tried three of them that were highly rated). I like the low light/semi gothic vibe inside, and man the menu is comprehensive!! They had sooo many syrup flavors and I love a novel latte so I ended up getting a jasmine syrup breve. The flavor wasn't tremendously strong but I could tell there was something floral there and I LOVE floral drinks. I would absolutely come here over and over to try different combos of flavors, and to try the pastries which also looked AMAZINGGG. When I told the barista I like floral flavors she showed me they had lavender flavored roll pastry. I had to force myself not to buy it, I'd already had too much sugar. But they had lemon poppy stuff, croissants, and several other fresh baked things. It looked awesome! They had some tables inside and a couple outside as well where you could sit, lovely vibes. If they had a couch/lounge area it would be perfection for reading and hanging out between trips to the national park! Only issue is no free parking anywhere nearby during the day, the prices aren't too bad for the lot nearby but for me trying to save money -- I parked several blocks away at the free garage and walked. It's only like 15-20 mins, not too bad :) Would def rec a visit here!! I'll absolutely be back!

    Had to stop by for name's sake. Ended up getting quite a bit of Raven paraphernalia. Quaint little coffee shop in the center of town with good coffee.

    This place is so cute and delicious! They have a variety of options and flavors. Their seasonal or speciality drinks for that day were creative and delicious. I had their caramel pecan cinnamon roll which was also very good especially heated up! I would absolutely return for the vibes and tasty treats. Definitely make a stop here.

    My friends and I decided to stop in and warm up. It wasn't crowded and we were greeted as soon as we entered. There was no rush in ordering and they took the time to answer all the questions. Since we were in no rush we got the stay-there mugs vs to-go cups. Nice touch. The coffee was good. It seems they have more mass-produced snacks vs in-house or local vendors but the choices were OK. We sat and played a game, visited, and enjoyed our beverages and snacks. Was a pleasant enough place to spend time.

    Pleasantly surprised to find a place that welcomes four legged friends, even in the presence of human food on offer. The shop was packed but given the speediness of service, you wouldn't know it. I will say that seating options were limited, giving some sardine-type vibes, so if you love community you'll fit right in. Amber took our order, and she was incredibly kind, welcoming and energetic. Unfortunately, the same can't be said for the blue-haired girl who brewed the actual coffee and passed it to us across the bar, with no eye contact provided and a grimace given in place of a smile, making the patron feel a bit like an imposition, sadly. An electric fireplace provided warmth and coziness on one side of the room, flanked by mature, well-loved houseplants showing off their shiny leaves. The flavor of my breve was nothing short of divine, and my partner's Americano with cream was delightful to the final drop. Lots of sugar free syrup options, for those battling unseen illness in autoimmune diseases like me. We can't wait to revisit on our next stay in Estes Park and try more items on the expansive menu!

    Great people, wonderful coffee, and a cool atmosphere. Prices are reasonable, coffee and teas for 4 people was under 20 dollars. A little hidden away, but a Total vibe.

    Coffees, complimentary self serve water, and a danish to share. A fun stop for anyone around!
    Trevor F.

    Fun little coffee shop with real theme of Edgar Allen Poe. The coffee has a robust flavor and a danish to share. Polite and friendly service too.

    I went to Raven's two times during my time in Estes for tea. The service was great, and they let me know they fill their own tea bags as I requested more tea leaves. Cute, cozy spot! I recommend and brought my friends here after trying two other spots in the area. I don't believe they make their own syrups or pastries but only basing my review on the tea, service, and ambiance.

    Came here multiples times during our stay in Estes Park. The atmosphere is super cute and cozy. Loved the PSL and my husband liked his tea too. Every barista was nice. Would definitely recommend!

    The family of six all came for an afternoon of hot drinks and Scrabble on a chilly November day. We were impressed with the expansive selection of drinks, especially as tea drinkers, when coffee shops rarely have more than six offerings. Each ordered something different from cappuccino to tea lattes. The overall assessments of drinks was mixed; some were pleased, others disappointed. Personally, I really enjoyed my Sherpa Spicy Chai latte; not too sweet and perfectly spicy. There is certainly a Celtic, Druidic spirituality at play in the atmosphere. Definitely not my preferred vibe and the overall feeling is quite dark and heavy, aside from the vast amount of live plants. All the drinks were made to order, but the service was a bit slow simply because only one person was working and there was another party in front of us who were waiting for their order. In Estes Park in the winter, I understand why it's not an option to have excess staff. Expect a wait if you come with a party of more than two.

    Smokey the Bear Latte. Great cup and friendly service. Nice cozy coffee spot in Estes Park. A good spot to sit and enjoy a cup, or get a cup and drink it while you stroll down the street.

There's a large public parking lot across the street as well. The barista made the cutest latte art for us! But it wasn't just appearance. The oat milk lattes were as delicious as they were beautiful! We tried some lattes at Inkwell yesterday, and Kind today. Kind was easily better, 10/10! It's a clean and cute shop. Good selection of coffee and breakfast and light lunch options. Also a small merch section - mugs, tees, coffee cups and canisters. We tried the salmon and cream cheese bagel with capers yesterday for lunch and they were great. My husband preferred the jalapeño cheddar bagel, while I was happy with the everything bagel. But the lattes were the real standout for me. The line was longest at lunch out of our visits, but it moved very quickly! The baristas were very welcoming and nice as well! Overall - Would definitely recommend!

Right outside Rocky Mountain National Park, and directly across from their main outpost, Bird & Jim. This place serves it all: coffee, smoothies, breakfast, baked goods, pizza, salads, soups, wraps, etc. Each menu varies depending on the time of day obviously. The space itself is gorgeous, and not something you'd expect in a mountain town. The high ceilings and massive windows allow you to soak up any mountain and sunset views. They have a nice little patio outside and yes, you'll probably see elk grazing across the street! The pizza left more to be desired. I ordered a simple margherita ($18) and an Odell beer. I would've prefered the pizza to be cooked for another minute in the oven personally, but that's not a knock on them. It desperately needed salt. In the dough and on the tomatoes. The tomatoes slid right off every time I tried to take a bite. It was just severely under-seasoned and really didn't have any flavor at all. I would actually come back here because I do like restaurant concepts like these that offer different experiences throughout the day. A great place to hang out and recharge. I will stick with breakfast and coffee next time!

I slept about 4 hours the night before to make it early for sunrise. To say that a few tasty beers were what the doctor ordered would be the understatement of the century! None of this matters, of course, to the good folks at Rocky Cut Brewing Company. This is off the main drag of Estes in an unassuming strip plaza. Humble vibes inside, a simple U-shaped bar top with seating all around, a few smaller tables, a community table, and a large patio with mostly picnic table seating. If you're lucky, snag a stool right along the Big Thompson River! Though, I recommend they fix the wooden placeholders for beers, they're leaning on the wrong side of history, we don't want any full glasses of beer reaching an unnecessary demise! Interference IPA * American IPA * 6.7% * 16oz ($7) From their website: "Climbing the Interference Boulder in Rocky Mountain National Park requires strength and power. This Colorado IPA showcases the power of hops with an intense blend forging citrus aromas with a pine forward finish. Featured ingredients: Cascade, El Dorado, Mosaic, Chinook, & Simcoe hops * Recommended adventure: hiking Black Lake, climbing the Twin Owls, skiing upper Hidden Valley." A perfectly apt description. I would summarize this beer just as they did, focusing on hops, citrus, and pine. Absolutely delicious, a memorable IPA in recent memory. I liked it so much I ordered it again and it tasted just as delicious the second time down! They also had a food truck outside, so safe to assume they do this often. Would love to try more of their beers during my next visit. Rock Cut, I see you!
