My absolute favorite coffee shop in Crested Butte ! Employees are always friendly & the vibe is great. Theres indoor and outdoor seating. Free WiFi & they offer Work Loft working spaces. The coffee is tasty & the looseleaf tea is fresh! It's connected to a lovely bookstore so browsing through the books is a nice touch. read more

Came to crested Butte for a camping trip and needed to take some work calls before we headed out to the mountain After looking at different coffee, shops online that offered a good environment to work from, we settled on rumors. Located on the main strip, it was easy to access. There is plenty of street parking, and lots of indoor and outdoor seating. The Wi-Fi is strong and there are outlets all over. The coffee is really good, I tried a white mocha with whipped cream and loved it. Even in the summer, it's still a little chilly here and the doors are kept open so it's the perfect pairing. I didn't try any of the food, but my boyfriend got a breakfast burrito and said it was yummy I love that it's attached to a bookstore, displaying lots of the cards and prints within the coffee shop and bringing the vibe across from both. The lady behind the counter is doing an awesome job, essentially taking care of an entire line on her own and not sacrificing any of the quality in each drink she makes. Love it! Will definitely come back read more

A coffee and tea spot attached to a rad bookstore? Be still my heart! Rumors is a lovely little shop with a varied selection of coffee beverages and tea mixes, plus Italian sodas (which I'm a big fan of these days during my pregnancy). Staff was very personable and helpful with answering our questions and I loved how much quirky art was scattered around - many pieces were also for sale. Definitely gave off the vibe of being a favorite of the locals. I will note this is a fairly small space, so seating is limited. They do have a time limit for table usage, which is nice. read more

The cutest little coffee shop/bookstore. I got a hot matcha latte with a lavender pump- delish! The team there was so kind, helpful, and insightful about coffee, books, and local sights. One of the highlights of our trip! read more

Super friendly staff with great matcha right in town:) A great spot to grab a morning bev to sit outside and enjoy! read more

I love this place. Delicious coffee & teas at a reasonable price. Staff is always personable, and the book store is attached. Quiet & relaxing ambiance. read more

We got a large mocha to go along with the banana nut bread slice. Both of them were delicious! Kept us will till we got dinner.

Love this place. My go-to coffee stop in CB if I want a consistently well made drink. My favorite is the iced strawberry white chocolate latte (not on menu but you can ask for it). I love that their espresso is deep and full without tasting burnt. The flavors are great. Iced Matcha and mocha were a little too sweet for me but if you like your iced lattes on the sweeter side then this is perfect Indoor and outdoor seatings with free wifi :) WFH friendly! Staff is friendly too! read more

Rumors Coffee and Tea House - Strawberry white mocha latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Crested Butte, Colorado

We went here almost every morning on our Crested Butte trip! Tried a couple coffee shops in town but this was our favorite. The lattes were all very good, we had coffee lattes, matcha lattes and vanilla chai lattes! The bookstore is also such a welcoming place! Our grandson loved going in there to "read" and even though as a 3 year old could be a little loud, was given smiles and patience by the staff. read more

Stopped by and got a decaf latte on my way out of town. Awesome vibes... if I were a reader and lived in CB, no doubt I'd spend way too much time here! I loved that they had so many options out on the counter in addition to the usual cream/sugar -- it was great cold morning to put cinnamon on my latte! read more

Rumors Coffee and Tea House - Latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Crested Butte, Colorado

Very rude and condescending. A boy and a girl were working and they were too busy talking to acknowledge us or take our order. When they did they were very rude, condescending, and unfriendly. Even laughed at my friend for ordering something when the case was empty. Coffee was good but would not go back or recommend. read more

Stopped in for a coffee. Quaint and inviting shops with great service and delicious coffee. Highly recommend!

Excellent coffee + a cash bowl for a quick drip coffee. Too bad they have some of the rudest staff in town.

Good atmosphere and coffee drinks. Great local vibe. I just wish they would serve drinks in porcelain cups. Wasteful single use should only be to go. read more

What a wonderful place to find your morning hot brew!!! The 2-person team is always so cheerful and accommodating!!!! They have a huge list of coffee and tea specialities. I tried a chai tea latte, and it is my new favorite drink. Kiddos had hot apple cider, a nice change from hot chocolate (yes, hot chocolate is also on the menu!). They offer 3 or 4 non-dairy milks. For breakfast items, they offer a sausage or a vegetable burrito, but they really shine with their pastries. Items include a spinach croissant, as well as an almond or a white chocolate croissant. There's a large choice of muffins. My blueberry muffin was delicious! Summer seating is outside in a lovely, shaded patio. As an added bonus, there is an independent book store attached to this coffee shop that's fun to check out. This is my favorite coffee spot when visiting Crested Butte! read more

Their espresso has a great flavor which is always important to me because I order a plain iced latte. I loved it and I'm going back in the morning before we leave town. They also have kombucha and tea for those who enjoy that. read more

I chose it because it was the shortest line, but I'm not sure why! The staff was quick and friendly. Coffee was delicious! Cute little shop with art and books attached. read more

We ordered two iced Hazelnut Lattes. The flavor was great and the customer service was commendable. Everything you would expect from a mountain town. On top of that they had a book store that I would love to come back and visit. read more

I loved everything about this place! Between the books, delicious coffee and kombucha (strawberry basil ) and the shaded patio, it's the perfect place to work, relax and read a book! read more

Rumors is a coffee shop that shares the same building with an adorable book store. Rumors has Gf granola bars and almond milk/oat milk options. They also have limited indoor seating and in the summer, picnic tables. They are also LGBTQIA friendly :) read more

Excellent coffee, friendly service, GF bakery items...this place is a gem. My husband and I needed to work a few hours, which we were happily invited to do outside with their string Wifi and plug-in for our laptops. Much more hospitable than A Daily Dose. Plus an amazing little bookstore with cards from local artists and gift items galore. Highly recommend you stop here for your coffee when in CB! read more

The coffee here is absolutely outstanding, and so is the service! I ordered a small white mocha for inside, and they only had large mugs at the moment, so they poured me a little extra, which was super nice! When a business does something like this, they always earn me as a repeat customer. There was plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, so you will have a comfy place to sit and not be searching around for a spot. There's also a bookstore right next door which brought lots of smiles for this English major dork! read more

Haven't been back to CB in years, first place I came to was Rumors!! Best coffee and service combined, especially sweet to see my old friend Bradley smiling and laughing so much from behind her face mask. Such a warm environment (definitely try the Magic Mountain Bars they're irresistible) and stop by the book store to grab a book to read outside in the courtyard. :) hometown favorite place never fails read more

Rumors Coffee and Tea House - Bradley S - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Crested Butte, Colorado

Great spot to chain drink cups of coffee and read modern literature in a socially distanced setting. $1 refills! Maybe they're $2... either way!! read more

I ordered an iced latte with oatmilk and lavender syrup. The espresso had a nice smooth flavor, and the lavender flavor was perfectly balanced - delicate and floral, complex but not overpowering. It made for a delicious drink! read more

Stopped in this local CB coffeehouse just as they were closing. Friendly staff and quick service. The coffee is ok. I am glad I tried them but wasn't my favorite. It was packed when I walked by earlier in the day, so they are doing something right. Just not for me. read more

There was always a little line but looks much longer because of 6ft spacing. The breakfast burritos are GOOD. Well priced drinks and food. Felt very safe Covid wise. They have a nice patio to sit out on also. read more

The coffee was surprisingly pretty good! I got a cold brew and a couple of stickers. I love how it's a bookstore too and I was sorely tempted to buy a puzzle and a t-shirt there. Unfortunately, I had a bit more self control (and they didn't have my size). It's cute, quaint. Don't come with 15 people. read more

Rumors Coffee and Tea House - Cold brew:) - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Crested Butte, Colorado

Cute little coffee spot in Crested Butte. Ordered an oat milk cappuccino and almond milk cappuccino and both were foamy and delicious. Handling covid precautions well. I'm sure it's also a great spot to hang out in on a cold day pre-COVID. read more

They had a great white tea and the lady was super nice! Nice quiet Coffee Spot. Two thumbs up. read more

Really great matcha (hard to find in CB), but their hours are wrong on yelp. Opens at 7:30, not 7am.

We only stopped in to Rumors for a quick cup of coffee before wandering the streets of Crested Butte but it looked like a very fun and cool place to relax. There's a bookstore right next door - always a good sign. Chairs and couches looked comfy and plentiful. There was definitely nothing "oppressive" or "corporate" about this place. I had a Cafe Cubano - described to me as "very sweet and very strong". It was tremendous. My wife had a mocha, which was also very tasty. Not the cheapest cups of coffee I ever bought - almost $8 for the two - but worth it. read more

Great coffee shop! Just spent a week in CB and liked Rumors best out of the local shops. They have a fairly smooth coffee, really nice staff and atmosphere. read more

My wife and I were waiting for some friends here before going camping and loved the atmosphere. Great coffee and tea selection and if you want to find a good book the staff has a lot of great recommendations and selection read more

I wish I could've liked this place more, as I spent 10 days in CB and wanted a go-to coffee shop. When I went, the barista working was not friendly to me at all. I didn't feel comfortable or welcomed as she didn't greet me or crack a smile at any point. I felt my drink was a little overpriced but it did taste good. read more

Fast wifi. Friendly service. Open till 10p for summer. Good drinks. I'm sold. I love coming into Rumors when visiting CB. They have such a nice atmosphere. Their fast WIFI and super friendly barista's make me a pretty happy gal. read more
