Loft Espresso

Bagels were excellent. We stayed the night in this cute little town and before we visited Pikes Peak we stopped in at Loft. We had already had a drink so just opted for bagels and we got an assortment. They were so good and tasty and did not disappoint. The cool vibe of this coffee shop fit in with the area. The plants added a nice hippie touch and the array of seatung was just right. They offered coliring books and general books to browse or read for the children and adults. I would have loved to have stayed longer but we were onky here for a day. A must try if ever in the area.

Such a cute environment and staff was super friendly. I got a coffee and two bagels. They hand roll the bagels daily and you can tell! They are the perfect texture and had lots of toppings which I loved. Both were listed on their specials and were incredible. Loved all the dogs that came in too! You can tell it's a crowd favorite! We will be back for sure

Love love love! Their freshly made bagels are DELICIOUS! So thick and the quality of ingredients is evident. Loved the rosemary bagel! I love the fun specialty drinks, but the coffee itself could use some more artistry. The atmosphere is one of my favorites in the Springs area because of the cozy wooden details mixed with the super fun colorful art and plants everywhere! Such a great stop! P.s. you can watch them make the bagels in the back, pretty neat little detail!

What an adorable gem in Manitou! The Loft is cute, quaint, homey and delicious! We live in Denver and have stopped at several places in manitou over the years, but the loft is our favorite by far. First, it's a cute and funky atmosphere with lots of local art and eclectic pieces. Second, every staff member is incredibly kind and welcoming. Third, the food is amazing. I would 10/10 travel here from Denver just for this food. The bagels are supposed to be the best, but we got there about an hour and a half before closing, so they were out. (But honestly, I'm happy to know they are made FRESH, and the croissant was just as delicious. So this was not a problem at all!!) I tried the Larry David and it was flavorful and unique. My husband tried the classic breakfast sandwich and it was delicious as well! The highlight is the pastries. I had a blueberry lemon turnover, while my husband had a strawberry sugar donut. Both of these pastries were far better than many of the bakeries in Denver city center. We were blown away with everything we tried, and will be back again soon.

This is personally my favorite spot in Manitou. It's consistently amazing. Highly recommend their dirty chai, I've had a lot from different places and The Loft is by far the best. Love the new location, I've been trying to make it down from Peyton for a while, and it was relatively busy for a Thursday morning! Great place to meet new friends, or have a family gathering. Baristas are very friendly as well.

Quaint local cafe with spacious seating inside.Very friendly service, and delicious food and drink.Green chili cheddar bagel comes with generous chunks of semi-melting cheese and has a nice chili kick to it.Cracked pepper provolone was also tasty.The drinks are also delicious!

If you're looking for good coffee and breakfast this is the place to go. Located right off the Main Street. You will have to pay for parking about $3.25 for an hour unless you walk from the Hotel. This place has a small town vibe. The best bagels I have ever had. Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Made fresh daily. We also tried the Avocado toast and that was just as good. Since we were in town for a few days I tried several of there coffees and they were excellent not to mention fairly priced. I recommend dining if you can. Their service was top notch and they were so friendly.

True Story! I lived in Brooklyn for 10 years and I had some of the best bagels I've ever had in my life until today. Someone offered me one this morning and it truly was the most amazing piece of bread I've ever had in my life loaded with cheese, jalapeños, and there was so much love and flavors in this bagel I found myself in some sort of strange and wonderful awe and THEN I found out they were from our very own Loft in Manitou Springs! All I can say is if you live around here you better get you some ( if you haven't already) and if you're not from here, I would call them and see about getting them freeze dried and shipped because they definitely put New York bagels to the test! Ah, Magnificent Manitou and of course, The Loft!

I met my friend here on a cold morning. The made in house bagels were excellent. My friend is a chef and self-proclaimed foodie and she was quite impressed with her bagel sandwich with sausage and green chiles. The atmosphere it genuine Manitou. Don't miss the decor of miniatures. The staff were welcoming, attentive, very accommodating. Bring only good vibes into this comfy cafe.
