Howl Mercantile & Coffee

WHAT A CUTE PLACE!! Walked in for a coffee on a cold day, and was greeted with a mercantile selling very aesthetically-pleasing items. The coffee is ordered in the back of the store; I was torn between the Aromatic Maple signature coffee or the Honey Lavender. I'm a sucker for lavender so ended up getting this (and the corresponding DRAM brand bitters they use in it); the coffee was very tasty. (I came in the next day for the Aromatic Maple and that one was even better - the foam they put on the top was delicious). When we stopped in on Sunday morning, they had a donut shop popup setup on one of the tables - love the support of local businesses. There aren't many tables so if you want to sit, probably avoid going during busy hours. Great coffee and shop.

High-quality coffee in the back of a cute gift shop in downtown Salida! Great coffee bean options and freshly made syrups and milks.

Stopped by for coffee just passing through the area and thought the shop was super neat. Service was friendly and helpful but my coffee was so bitter I could barely drink it. With the title of the drink being a dessert I expected something else. The servings were small compared to the price. Overall it's a cute local shop with oddities from the area and all over the US (even handmade perfumes id only seen in New Orleans) but I probably wouldn't go back for another drink.

I was recommended this place by family that lives in town, I got a latte and it was definitely good, although not the best latte I've had in town. The barista was super kind, as I came in right as they opened. They have a bunch of neat things inside the store and also have ice cream which sounded amazing! Would definitely go back to try that, too!

Love this shop! Best baristas around and such a friendly staff. The unique collection of items impresses me every time I go in -- there is truly something for everyone in this shop and they are always getting new items! Not to mention the best coffee in town and such a lovely place to hang out. Good coffee, good people and good tunes too -- 5 out of 5 always!

Imagine walking into a tiny town in the middle of Colorado and seeing vegan ice cream available for an affogato. My jaw dropped. I ordered it immediately and shopped around the mercantile while I waited. Howl has hand-picked some of the best knick knacks, clothing, and decor that I now want to own. My affogato was absolutely perfect. The ratio is spot on and I don't think I'll ever be the same. Also, I think I need to move to Salida.

Nothing but the best of everything... Best coffee in Salida, reliable internet and desks if working is your thing, and insanely nice and accommodating staff!

Located this shop thru source which is an app that identifies quality coffee places so I was eager to try in salida a place with limited options, due to size.Ordered a mocha, no 2% just whole. The mocha was decent the flavor of cinnamon was overpowering and the menu didn't specify it would have cinnamon in it so that was a turn off for me.Besides the coffee this place has little nic naks and unless you're into the occult it's another turn off. No thanks to the abundance of tarot cards and astrology books. Was offended by the "spiritways". Just wanted some coffee not a palm reading.

The best coffee shop I've ever been to. I had the best matcha latte I've ever had in my life here (matcha latte with macadamia nut milk). I'm obsessed, 100% adore this spot. There are so many incredible things to look at and buy! Love the diversity. Great service, great atmosphere. I never write reviews but I had to for this place. Creativity is off the charts here!

Service was friendly. Fun shop to look around while they make your coffee. Seating is limited. Excited they also serve Dram products.
