1886 Coffee

We loved this place. Owner was super helpful and the coffee was amazing. Add this place to your list when visiting Ouray. Coffee with a view is hard to beat.

Part of the beautiful Beaumont hotel in which stayed October 15-18. It was so convenient for my husband to run down and grab a DELICIOUS ham and cheese croissant, flaky and warm. I paired it with a "Pine Nut" latte which was hazelnut and toffee nut infused. As you can see, the location is also a treat for the eyes!

What was supposed to be a quick coffee stop turned into over an hour wait for a single croissant to be heated. The cashier seemed to find it funny when we asked if it was ready and had a rude, dismissive attitude the entire time. Orders were completely out of order, people who arrived 30 minutes after us got theirs within minutes. The poor barista kept apologizing, only for the cashier to tell her “don’t say sorry.” Mind you we only ordered 3 drinks and the croissant.

They have a great selection of specialty lattes! My favorite part is they do not make them too sweet - you still taste the espresso just with some additional flavorings. Though the place was busy at 10am on Labor Day Weekend the service was friendly and quick. The banana bread with coconut cream was delicious, fresh, and a perfect pair with coffee.

I was in need of a quick caffeine boost, and 1886 Coffee proved to be the perfect spot for just that! While we weren’t hungry enough to indulge in any of the delicious-looking pastries on display, there was certainly no shortage of tempting treats to choose from. We were lucky enough to snag a cozy table by the window, offering a wonderful view of Main Street, framed by the backdrop of the mountains. The charming, rustic ambiance of the café, filled with antique touches and old-world character, made the experience all the more delightful. The coffee itself was fantastic—rich, smooth, and exactly what I needed. I can’t wait to return, and next time, I’ll definitely save room for the sweets!
