Colorado Coffee Merchants

I stumbled upon this place while in town for a business meeting. I was running behind and hadn't had any coffee. So glad to have found this accident! That was a full bodied espresso and they had oat milk options. I now know where I'll be having coffee anytime I'm down here.

I love the look on the outside! As soon as you walk in, it loses its charm. It's dark and gloomy, very sparse seating, and almost nothing on the walls. It's also just an awkward entrance with a bulky freezer right when you enter, and 2 rooms that are disconnected by a roaster and a counter to order at. I got their batch brew, which was a pretty good cup. nothing to write home about, but got the job done. $3.50 and $1 refills if you hang around long enough to utilize it. Overall, not my favorite place to grab a cup and would not be a go to spot to meet up with friends.

Unfortunately the manager was not courteous in handling an issue. It's not the "issue" that matters - it's how it wasn't handled. After placing my order to have in (not to-go) and paying, the cashier then told me their policy and that I had to sit outside. There is no outside seating and there are no tables outside. She wanted to give me a lawn chair. I had to get a refund. The point is that I should have been told BEFORE placing the order. I don't have an issue with their policy. I have an issue with the lack of foresight in communication, and no signage on the door stating their policies upfront. First place in Colorado Springs in over 2 months that I have had this issue. The manager wouldn't even look me in the eye when talking to me.

Stopped here to grab some coffee before driving to The Incline to hike. I believe the owner was working this morning, he was super kind and open to sharing about their establishment. If we were staying longer it looks like they host lots of events as well!

Perfect Coffee ( and Apple cider) roasted freshly every morning, try their veggie burrito. They are super friendly.

My husband and I loving coming here whenever we are in the mood for a cup of good coffee ... or two, haha. We also buy whole bean coffee from this place because it makes our morning every time we drink their coffee. Guatemala is one of our favorites as a regular coffee

A nice local place with arguably some of the best coffee in town. Their pastries are top notch, and their service is excellent. I rarely see the owner or his staff not greet returning customers with their first names.The jazz music and simple layout make it a regular stop for me. Definitely recommend this place for anyone who wants a quiet setting with good coffee.

Had their breakfast burrito, but I ate it too quickly forgetting to take a picture of it because I was super hungry. Burrito was great with the green salsa they provided. Cappuccino was fluffy, and I was lucky enough to smell fresh beans being roasted there. It is a small and quiet cafe until the roaster is turned on. I'm used to noisy machines as I previously worked at several cafes, but I don't know if others can work with the noise.The service was great. It's a small shop and they were very nice and friendly. Hoping business picks up for them as it was pretty quiet the first hour I was there.

The gentleman that was here at noon on Thursday was very chill. Coffee was much better than the chains. Had a meeting here and I'll have more here

We went to CO Coffee Merchants for their steak dinner last night. It was FANTASTIC! Everything was cooked to perfection, including the very tender beef filet, the roasted carrots and the fully loaded baked potato. We had great service and Eric kept checking in with everyone to ensure they were happy. You can't beat, nor have I ever seen, such a wonderful a prix fixe meal in COS for only $44pp including a drink. We'll definitely be back!
