Crema's Take

Jives Coffee Lounge is a cozy cornerstone of Old Colorado City where thoughtful espresso work meets genuine hospitality—owner Dored and his team consistently go the extra mile to make regulars and newcomers feel like family. Beyond the stellar coffee and creative signature drinks like the White Tiger, what sets this place apart is the warm, inviting atmosphere with smart table spacing that somehow balances being social and intimate, plus a surprisingly solid food menu that keeps people coming back for lunch as much as their morning fix.

First impression of Jives. Cute warm cozy coffee shop. Good spacing between tables and nice decor. However, service was a bit slow. I stood in line for a while and the folks who work here were really busy. 3 people that I saw were working. I feel this place could benefit from hiring 1-2 more people. I believe it was the owner running around ensuring things got done, taking orders, taking orders out, moping floors, grabbing pastries. I think it’s wonderful the pride this owner takes in his restaurant however customer service is strained with the amount this owner puts on their shoulders. He asked what I would like but walked away after instead of staying present with the customer. It may be helpful to have another employee taking orders to stay present with customers. Someone had spilled water on the floor and the door was propped open and left open. The warm feeling diminished as it was cold outside that morning. The food and coffee are pretty tasty. Great temperature. I ordered the Red Moon white mocha raspberry. Very delicious! The cheese danish was warmed and tasty. I do recommend Jives coffee.

One of the best coffee shops I've been to anywhere in the world. The coffee is phenomenal. But, the atmosphere and service put it over the top. Dored and his family go out of their way to make you feel welcomed. I can't wait to go back! If you're ever in Old Colorado City or the Colorado Springs area, I highly recommend a stop into Jives.

Even though they were extremely busy, the line moved quickly, the service was great, and the food and drinks were delicious. They have a nice variety on their menu--avocado bacon egg salad if you're watching your carbs, breakfast sandwiches, and I would highly recommend the Cherry Danish which they heated slightly and topped with whipped cream and possibly condensed milk--to die for!

Stopped by Jives Coffee Shop and instantly fell in love — it’s absolutely adorable with the best vibes. Cozy, fun, and welcoming. I ordered the White Tiger with an extra shot of espresso and it was pure perfection. My husband got the same drink blended and loved it just as much. Amazing coffee, great atmosphere, and definitely a spot we’d return to again. Highly recommend! ☕✨

Jives Coffee Lounge – Old Colorado City Stopped in for lunch and left completely impressed! I ordered a Caramel Latte, White Mocha, and the Skyscraper Turkey Sandwich — and every item hit the mark. Both lattes were perfectly made — rich espresso flavor with creamy, balanced sweetness. The caramel latte had a deep, buttery flavor, and the white mocha was silky smooth without being too sweet. You can tell the baristas take pride in their craft. The Skyscraper Turkey Sandwich was fresh, hearty, and layered with flavor — the kind of sandwich that feels homemade but elevated. Everything tasted fresh, from the bread to the crisp veggies and savory turkey. The atmosphere is warm and creative — great music, cozy vibe, and friendly service that makes you want to stay a while. If you’re anywhere near Old Colorado City, Jives is a must-visit. Whether you’re after great coffee, lunch, or just good energy, this place delivers every time! ☕🥪💛
