Crema's Take

Tucked within a historic property, this café serves thoughtfully made coffee and tea alongside freshly prepared paninis and pastries in a serene setting that feels more like a retreat than a quick caffeine stop. The real draw is the peaceful courtyard seating surrounded by the grounds' natural beauty, making it an ideal spot to linger with your laptop or settle in for a long conversation, especially if you're visiting the estate's other attractions. The staff genuinely care about hospitality, and while the religious book collection reflects the venue's heritage rather than broad appeal, the focus here is clearly on creating a contemplative space where quality drinks and food come second only to the tranquility of the experience.

We stayed for 3 days and 2 nights. The view from our room at the Cedar Lodge was amazing with the surrounding area. The buffet style breakfast was plentiful in variety and taste. The staff were very friendly and helpful with whatever our needs were. Would definitely recommend the rooms, food, trails and views!

This is a great little coffee shop, especially if you're staying here. The coffee, tea and food quality are really good. It also has a great little courtyard with solid internet. If you come to see the castle, it's worth a stop. Even if you're nearby, it's good enough to swing by.

The Chai was good (but too sweet) . The "bookstore" was a just few religious books and drinkware with religious messages (founder was a very religious man, so makes sense, just not much of an actual bookstore), but very sparse. Service was warm - cheerful employees, quick, friendly service. Beautiful location, just underwhelming bookstore. Really cute stoneware "Glen Eyrie Castle" mugs, though.

Got myself a random sandwich. It was a great time here during the tour. After it was done we decided to get some food from the bookstore. It was a cool day out the staff was pleasant. Ordered a frap for my girlfriend. And after eating we went hiking around the grounds of Glen Eyrie Castle. I wish I lived here such an amazing place to be.

A lovely place to grab a cup of coffee, Italian soda, or panini, with a pretty good selection of Christian books, Bible studies, and Bibles. Some seating inside but you’ll find the most/best seating outside in the carriage house courtyard, under either the Colorado blue sky or the charming string lights they keep up year-round! PLUS, they sell all the teas offered at the afternoon teas at the Castle.
