Switchback Coffee Roasters - Roastery/Brew Bar
909 E Moreno Ave, Manitou Springs, CO
Crema's Take
“Switchback's roastery location in Manitou Springs is where the magic actually happens, offering a quieter, more intimate alternative to their busier flagship spot with the added bonus of watching their roasting operation firsthand. The minimalist-modern space strikes that rare balance of feeling both sleek and genuinely warm, making it equally suited for a focused work session, catching up with a friend over a perfectly pulled cappuccino, or fueling up before an adventure on two wheels. While the food menu is purposefully compact, what they do offer—like their honey sriracha breakfast sandwich—lands with real intention, backed by friendly staff who clearly know their coffee inside and out.”

Great second location where they do a lot of the actual roasting. This location was quieter and had less food options but had a nice vibe and location to catchup with a friend or get a little work done off the beaten path. The loose leaf tea selection was on point!
Great LOCAL spot to pop in and grab a coffee, catch up with friends, or work remotely from. We popped in via bike before a social ride.
Cozy little minimalist coffee shop with delicious food and coffee! ☕️🤍 Friendly and fast service, too! We recommend the breakfast sammy with honey siracha (!!!), sourdough bagel with cream cheese, and iced lattes with honey and almond milk.
We visited on a Sunday morning a little after 8. There was no wait and the staff was welcoming and informative. We each had a delicious cappuccino and much to our surprise the flavor was so great we didn’t even need to add sweetener. We shared the avocado toast on gluten free bread and the ham breakfast sandwich (I forgot its name) also on gluten free bread. Both dishes were fantastic- I wish I were still hungry so I could have more. We were very pleased with the fact that all items were seed oil free and they had delicious gluten free options. We would highly recommend.
Great little coffee shop, nice decor that's very modern and sleek but still feels warm and inviting. Excellent coffee and had some great avocado toast. The eats menu is a little limited but meets the needs for a light breakfast while the items they offer are of extremely high quality and well prepared.
