Crema's Take

Tucked into downtown Telluride, this bustling brunch destination earns its reputation with genuinely fresh, thoughtfully composed food that caters to everyone—vegetarians rave about the kale and courgette sandwich while avocado toast devotees line up for their fix. The bright, outdoor-friendly space fills quickly with locals and visitors alike, so arrive hungry and ready to wait, but the fresh-made pastries and creative breakfast bowls move the line along faster than you'd expect. It's the kind of place where quality ingredients and careful preparation matter more than fussy presentation, making it worth the post-hike or pre-ski pilgrimage.

Food was delicious, my husband and I are vegetarians and we both found options on the menu that we truly enjoyed. I had a sandwich with kale, courgette and egg. He had a veggie breakfast bowl.

The Butcher & The Baker is a definitely a must visit in Telluride! It was crazy busy when we went so expect a wait but it didn’t take very long to get through the line. Food was fresh, flavorful, and worth every penny. The burgers and sandwiches are phenomenal, and you can’t go wrong with a fresh cold local pint to wash it all down! A perfect local gem to try!

Walked in to the shop a few people sitting. I got up to the counter where my mom and niece were at the counter. We stood there no one around. I said “ hello” after a while a young man came up and said what can I get you and what else? No hello welcome in or we’ll be right with you. He seemed rushed to help us and a bit impatient?! We ordered our drinks and pastries, paid and left. I dont think he said thanks?!? Just weird . And I tipped him. My first time to this coffee shop and I’ve always had good service while in Telliride. Coffee was good and our croissants were good, light and flaky. Just wish the service was hospitable and kind.

Super cute brunch spot in downtown telluride! Of course beautiful views and lots of outdoor seating. Was really tough to find a menu anywhere so we just looked online. I got the tuna sandwhich which was phenomenal. House chips were great too and every meal comes w fruit which was nice. Not THAT pricey for being a nice spot in telluride but I also paid $20 and didn't get a drink. My friends meal looked kinda gross and the salad was below average. She got ciabatta and it looked like a soggy wrap. She hated her meal but I liked mine,
