Wonderful drinks (tea, lattes, etc). Charming white china for your tea. Entertaining service. Don't charge you extra for tasty whipped cream AND chocolate powder on top of your drink. Cozy setting....

Always packed for a reason. I've never really utilized the bookstore aspect of it all, but I've had a fair share of coffee sorts. It's very good.

The coffee is great and the cafe is very Boulder. There's rarely seating as it's a popular place to sit and read in for awhile. I really like the lattes.
