Rocky Mountain Roastery & Coffee

I went here for the first time a few weeks ago! I had an amazing latte there — I would highly recommend!

Ashya makes the best latte I’ve had in a long time, I lived in coffee capitals all my life and this was phenomenal!

Simply put, I was served the greatest latte I’ve ever tasted in my stop in here. There was very low acidity to the cup, paired with warmed almond milk, vanilla and cinnamon it was the smoothest drinking coffee I’ve ever had. On top of that, the staff were very pleasant and courteous.

Wow, what a difference from last year! I love where they are going with the renovation. It’s not quite done, but the direction looks great. I’ll try each of the new pasties daily while I’m here and today was the cinnamon bun. Thumbs up!

This is a hometown coffee shop with little of the unnecessary glam of big box competitors. In house roasting makes for coffee roasting just they way they want it. Free WiFi available even if not listed on their website. Be sure you have a full charge as the plugs for power are scarce. Open later in the afternoons than other area coffee shops (to the west). The space is quite big for the area they are actually using right now. Does not feel like a ton of seating (30+ seats at 9 tables and two couch areas), but it seems that most of their business is grab and go. Was told by the staff that the shop is undergoing a remodel currently. Noticed that the furniture is older with many of the booths in need of repair. Staff was super friendly and helpful. Baked goods and loose leaf tea offerings as well. Only stars missing is for the worn décor that may or may not be fixed during the remodel. Will be back because of great service, good prices p, free wifi and tasty drinks!

Wifi has been free every time I have been here. Coffee is great and priced right. Cheaper than any coffee shop in WP. I don’t drink the fancy drinks so I can’t comment on the quality of those. Girls are always friendly and coffee is hot and tastes great!

I love this place to buy bags of coffee for gifts! They even have a punch card for buying bags of coffee. They have names like Apres-​Ski, Fraser’s Finest, SingleTrack, Tabernash, and Organic Winter Park. They make great gifts for the coffee lover.
I also brought our construction crew pumpkin latte’s last year for Halloween and they gave me a punch card for latte’s too. They loved getting warm coffee while building a home in the frigid cold. I don’t buy coffee very often but this place is the place to go. I prefer it over the Starbucks across the street. This coffee tastes better.

Don’t go here if you’re looking for wifi — they want $ 3/​hour to use it. Brewed coffee was lukewarm, we won’t be returning.

Good service, Ok coffee (best I have found in town so far)
NO FREE WIFI
Yes that last one confused me as well. I am not paying tourist coffee price and then forking out extra for WiFi on top of a tip and state taxes.
Think of it as a cost of doing business. An affordable necessity for Café’s around the world.
I have come to believe that WiFi in Café’s should be a standard. So that makes me confused that a small town operation like this that seem to have it going on are not offering one of the staples of café’s everywhere other than Fraser.
I am a tourist, in a tourist town during Summer! (Off season) Embrace me, entice me to spend more $ than I do on my morning coffee. Spend that $ 50/​month and it will be repaid to you with more people like me spending more money in your establishment, more often. You won’t win more people but you will retain them. I know I would be there everyday of my trip.
So, do this by offering an environment where I can sit down, enjoy my coffee (and order another one) as well as a light breakfast while catching up on Social Media/​friends/​business. I might even take a picture or two and show other travelling money sacks how good this place is which in turn leads to more business for you.
Don’t mean to rant (actually I do) but complimentary WiFi in this day and age is a bare necessity.
Still a 4 star review. Please don’t anyone reading this see it as a negative. This place has great service and great coffee. The lack of complimentary WiFi astounds me. That is all.

I really thought we’d found the place in Winter Park that took coffee seriously. They appear to roast their own beans and they have plenty of bagged coffee for sale. Unfortunately we got the tourist treatment from the staff who acted as if we were not even there for a while. Of all things the hot chocolate was so bitter than my son dumped it out at our next stop. I was really hoping for more.

Good coffee, plenty of parking. Cookies were dry and disappointing though. Very friendly staff. Beans are roasted in-​house, which is always a plus for me.

One of the best lattes I’ve ever had, and they have the toasted marshmallow syrup (my fav). Great coffee, cool atmosphere, delicious peanut butter chocolate chip cookies, and very friendly service. Oh, and it’s attached to a bike shop. If you’re in or near Fraser and need some coffee, this is the place to stop.

Good coffee, good service. Great cinnamon rolls. All-​in-​all a good place for coffee and a pastry in the morning.
Now for the bad.
Pay for internet access at a coffee shop?! In this day and age that is just ridiculous, and smacks of «money grubbing». They would get more of my business, and good will, if I could access internet and check my business email. But as it is, it’s just a stop and go type of place.

The only decent coffee shop between Winter Park and Granby. It’s located across Hwy 40 from the Safeway, in the Alco line of shops. (Has a sister shop in Winter Park on the East side of the street halfway through town).
This is the coffee shop where the locals hang in Frasier (and Winter Park). Very good coffee products. Friendly barristas. Good pastries and OK breakfast burritos make this place a nice spot to stop on your way north. (Plus, the Frasier location is a lot less crowded than the Winter Park shop during the ski season).

The White Chocolate — hot cocoa was really quite delicious. However, they are still in the ‘pay to use the internet’ days… get with it and stop charging $ 6/​hr. It’s hard enough to find wifi hotspots in the area! The furniture was awkward, hard wooden seats with wobbly tables. No thanks.
This is a take and go coffee joint in my opinion. Good coffee (and roastery), but not a comfortable environment.

Awesome coffee, awesome coffee shop.

Chill place to drink some joe. Also friends don’t let friends drink Starbucks!

Cheerful service, excellent cinnamon rolls, and a tasty breakfast burrito,
plus decent coffee and a few couches. What else does a coffee shop need?

Given that I’ve stopped in here a few times this summer I thought I should look it up and write a review of it. It’s the only good local coffee shop in the area that I’ve found so every time I drive by I stop in and refill.
They have lots of different types of brews that are self-​serve. If you order for-​there then you get to pick out your own mug. My only complaint was the last time I stopped in I got the Ethiopian and it tasted like Play-​Doh. I think it was not a problem with the brewing but rather just the bean or the roast. I’ve had bad luck with Ethiopian coffee in the past from other places too. Maybe some other people are into that but I should have stuck with the Sumatra.
They’ve got a comfortable lounging area and decent restrooms, too. It’s a quick stop right off highway 40.
