The Blacksmith Café
21738 US-160 Unit A, Durango, CO
Crema's Take
“Tucked into Durango with a stunning riverside patio complete with a hammock and cornhole, this cafe feels like a rare find that actually lives up to the hype—the kind of place where you can sink into an afternoon without pressure. Beyond solid traditional coffee, they're making waves with their specialty drinks like exceptionally crafted chai lattes and mate lattes that regulars rave about, paired with fresh breakfast burritos and baked goods that tend to sell out by mid-afternoon. The spacious outdoor setting overlooking the river and genuinely warm service make it equally perfect for meeting friends or settling in solo with a book.”
What to expect
Specialty coffee. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Pastries and light food on the menu.

Highly recommend for dog owners and cafe lovers alike! Super friendly staff, great iced coffee, DELICIOUS sorbet and a lovely dog area out back. Wish we were staying longer so we could come back and use the coworking space (and try more baked goods)!!
What a sweet little local coffee shop on the way into town! Everything was great! Watch out you need cash for a tip! I felt bad I didn’t have any with me.

This place is great! I came at around 3 PM and they were already out of the salads and sandwiches, but had a lot of baked goods left.
Cool new coffee spot! They have a nice outdoor patio with for hole, a hammock, and a view of the river. The chai latte was excellent
Best cafe in Durango—opens early, great breakfast burritos, and incredible mate latte’s!
