Stopped in on a Friday around 9:30a. They sell out of their pastries quickly but I was able to grab a strawberry cream cheese pinwheel danish. They are provided by provision bakery, which has the same owner. Fantastic quality, will be stopping by their bakery this weekend. Decided to go with their avocado toast and a cappuccino. Incredible flavor and very filling. Enjoyed my breakfast on their patio with my dog. They even brought her a dog bowl. Great staff and delicious food. Would definitely recommend. read more

Decent coffee shop, got the job done but nothing to write home about. Street parking wherever you can find it. Long line and no menu to look at until you are at the very front of he line which contributed to the wait. Lots of space feel like they could bump up the aesthetic, decor and seating options. The outside patio was very cute, but to warm of a day for me, maybe add some umbrellas. Banana latte was missing the banana taste, was good but not as advertised. Would have loved if they offered to warm up the ham and cheese croissant. They did have some good pastry options but didn't display them well. So much potential but until they make some upgrades I doubt ill be back. Menu online does not match what they have in the cafe. Overall 2.5 / 5 stars. read more

You ever get a 19 sleep number on your bed...?!?! It took a real special sort of night. The type where you get home from work and fall into bed at 130a then get the worse food poisoning imaginable for several hours and your alarm goes off in the 5a hour to get up and hit LAX on the "busiest travel day of the year". That my friend is how you achieve a 19! That being said, by the time I flew to Denver, rented a car and drove to Colorado Springs I was in desperate need of a latte. I made it to Switchback by 230p before they closed on Sunday. I was only in town for 20 hours to celebrate my sons birthday and spend some time with him and if not for this pumpkin spice latte that brought me back to life I wouldn't have been able to get into celebration mode. I really do believe Switchback is the best coffee in town. Consistently outstanding at different locations. I'm so thankful they were open. Fantastic service. I sat there for a moment to enjoy my latte before driving to my son's place. If I lived nearby this would be my everyday coffee spot. Highly recommend. read more

Absolutely loved this little coffee shop! I got the honey matcha--it wasn't too sweet, just the right balance, and so yummy. I'm visiting from California and it came highly recommended--and now I see why! The shop has a super homey feel, staff is friendly and knowledgeable, nothing fancy inside, but it gives cozy, comforting vibes. Plenty of seating, too. Definitely a cute spot I'd come back to! read more

My first impression of this shop came from the decor and seating areas. There are plenty of seating options both inside and outside. Although the outside seating is on the street, it is enclosed in a way that feels safe without impeding the perks of being outside. The next thing I noticed and enjoyed was the friendly barista. She was friendly and provided great service by asking about my day. By the time my coffee came (Brown Sugar Latte), I was already sold on this shop. The latte is everything I except from well crafted lattes - smooth frothed milk, rich espresso, and the right amount of flavor from the syrup. All in all, I'd be all too happy to spend more days here. read more

Drip coffee was fantastic! They have an awesome mission to make a cup of coffee accessible to everyone. When you pay for your coffee, you have the options to pay what you can, the price of the coffee, or the price of the coffee plus a few cents more to pay forward. This kind of mission makes me want to come back. Sandwich was great! The English muffin was a little dense which is not my personal preference but it was tasty. Employees were super nice. Lots of seating and big windows. We had not been here in years and came to work today and will definitely be coming back. read more

Nice coffee shop with local roasting. Friendly, knowledgeable and good coffee. Recommended.

Beautiful coffee shop close to downtown and the hospital, with some of the best ambiance I've ever seen! Big, gorgeous, green, leafy plants decorate the interior with natural light and comfy seating. It was quite busy when I stopped in, understandably so. This would be a great place to work, read or visit. Heck, even a date! They have a variety of food options and the coffee is wonderful. I had a dirty chai latte with oat and it was hot, slightly spicy and delicious. If you prefer the sweeter chai, maybe opt for something else! read more

Go to remote work, hang out, breakfast and coffee spot for me and my friends. I look forward to their pumpkin scone every fall season (but tbh they are all incredible). Spacious place with lots of seating options (indoor and outdoor). My only con is that the only regular milk they carry is whole milk (why did everyone stop carrying skim and 2%?!) read more

If you are looking for an aesthetically pleasing café with calm, soothing energy, then this be the one. I only grabbed a quick coffee and bite to go but the environment with clean white walls and greenery strewn about was all the vibe. SO much seating inside and out, all with said calming energies. They have coffee and food and I did eye their bagels which they make fresh in-house everyday. WOW, it was clearly fresh and while not your typical NYC bagel with the chewiness that a boiled and baked process should produce, there's were big (in diameter) and tasty. Cream cheese was provided on the side and they warmed it up wrapped in some foil so as not to crisp it up too much. What a pleasant neighborhood café to divert to on the morning drive. read more

Solid cup of coffee, hefty breakfast sandwich. Almost too big, not that it's a bad thing. Service was quick and they brought the food and drink right over. Price was competitive - paid $13 for my breakfast sandwich and americano. it was a little echoey and hard to focus on my meeting as well as the temp was pretty low. I didn't have great service and could connect on my phone. Their wifi might have been faster but I didn't try that. overall, would recommend! read more

My experience: underwhelming. The coffee was bitter like the attitude I encountered at the cash register. Not sure why. I am, however, certain this was my first (and last) visit to this business. Another employee seemed to try and compensate for their coworker's shortcomings and huffiness. At least there was that. When in Colorado Springs, I rarely venture east of Tejon and will not make the trip again. read more

They don't have regular packet sugar..... the coffee is mid would rather have Folgers...service sucks too

A cute little spot! Loved the vibes and was excited to try from the reviews, but didn't really love my vanilla latte. Tasted a little sour, but their breakfast sandwich was pretty good & big! read more

Highly recommend this place if you want good coffee and some flavorful bites! Was in town for a few days and walked to the local coffee place. Great patio and very welcoming vibe. The staff was attentive and provided wonderful service. The cortado was a perfect start to the day and the toast here is amazingly fresh and delish. The first trip I got the breakfast sandwich which was a good size portion and tasted amazing. So much so I had to come back before I left town. This time around I got the avocado toast and WOW - it was a really good portion size. Two perfectly cooked eggs on top of a heaping serving of avocado on that amazing sourdough bread... Trust me when I say this place is worth the trip read more

Service was quick and easy. The cortado is the best out of the other 5 coffee shops/roasters I've been to, in Colorado Springs so far. I've ordered cortados at other places, and they were sour and bitter. The cortado here was perfect without sourness, and you can taste all the notes of the beans. I didn't ask what the ice coffee was, but from the taste, I assume it was Ethiopian, as I taste notes of fruits. As well, the Avocado Toast is the best once I've ever had. That two fried eggs on it really mixed well with all of the ingredients. I got lost driving by as the shop is kind of camouflaged/blended in with most of the houses. The cafe was packed, but I was able to find a seat, and guests rotated in and out smoothly, so nobody is left waiting to find a table when I was here. It's a good relaxing vibe. read more

This place is a little hidden away, fast, friendly, and beautiful with wonderful food. It is a little pricey, but well worth the cost. I had the avocado toast, vegan style, where the egg was replaced with home fries. I also added the poblano jam, which added a delicious sweetness to some bites. It came on the side, so I could edit as I wished. The bread was fresh and easily cut through. I think they put a whole avocado on top of it! The greens and pickled onions and sauce around it were also delicious. For a drink, I ordered the hot chai latte with almond milk, and it was incredibly good. read more

Man do I love a good coffee shop that also has good food. The bagel here with lemon herb cream cheese is literally to die for (get two orders of cream cheese - you'll need it). Service was AMAZING and everyone was so sweet. I was rushing to get to work and they brought my food and coffee out in no time :') As for the coffee, I was unable to snap a photo of it, but it was good! Cute cup, but could be stronger / have more vanilla flavor with the syrup. Nonetheless was still good. The aesthetic is fantastic. Plenty of seating, huge windows for sunlight, and plants! Parking is street residential, so plenty of that. read more

Saw that this place was in the lower priced range buuuut it was not. The asthetic is nice, and the breakfast sandwich was pretty good! However the coffee was a different story. It tasted very burnt and watered down which was disappointing. I don't know why yelp put this as lower priced area as with 3 adults who ordered 3 drinks, 2 sandwiches and 1 Danish tart, it was 60$ in total. With that kind of pricing I'd expect just a liiiiitle more care into their drinks. read more

We found this place several years ago during a trip here. My husband worked in coffee for many years, so we are a bit of a coffee snobs. The coffee here is delicious. So velvety. The pastries and brunch items are delicious too! We had an assortment of goods since we were a group of 7. Everything was delicious. I always say I look through coffee shop reviews for photos of latte art, because that is usually really telling of how good the coffee is going to be. This place nails the latte art even with alternative Milks, which is so difficult. read more

I'm pretty bummed I never checked out this coffee shop/roaster while I lived in Colorado Springs. It was refreshingly bright and airy in the space, making it perfect for working or meeting with someone. I enjoyed all the plants and greenery around the shop. They had several appetizing food options, but I opted for the Brie and sweet basil sandwich, which was delicious. I also ordered the special of the month, which was a latte with orange infused syrup spiced with pink peppercorn & a berry powder garnish (!!) Very tasty. I also took home a bag of freshly roasted beans. I can't wait to go back here when I'm in town again! read more
