Crema's Take

Tucked away in Kalispell, this riverside gem stays open late (until 11pm on weekends) and welcomes hikers, visitors, and locals alike with genuinely warm staff and expertly crafted lattes and cappuccinos. Beyond traditional espresso drinks, they excel at specialty beverages like chai tea and matcha, making it equally perfect for a quick caffeine fix or lingering for hours with friends over games and pastries. The peaceful, inviting atmosphere and ample seating make it the kind of place visitors wish existed in their hometown.

Very cool place with a warm and inviting atmosphere, friendly staff and yummy drinks. We are here visiting Glacier, but if I lived here I would visit this coffee shop often! Very thankful there is a place to get my caffeine fix after 5... this is literally rhe only place open!

Such a huge convenience they’re open until 11 especially after a day of hiking and a long drive home. Baristas were extremely friendly even after arriving 40 mins before closing. Games available to play. Upstairs is a cute store full of goodies. Bathrooms were very clean and fully stocked. I ordered the pistachio white mocha and white chocolate mocha. Both were very delicious!

The other day a group of friends and I decided to give the River Coffee Company a try for our weekly hang out. Man am I glad we did! I didn't realize this awesome shop existed until I saw their billboard sign pointing the way. When you first roll up to River C C you notice the big sign and the welcoming esthetics of the place. For me it is attached with some nostalgia, because when I was a kid this building housed the local movie cinema. :) As you walk in your realize right away that the place is COMFORTABLE. There are many comfy chairs place all throughout the vast seating area. The staff was extremely helpful and friendly. And now to the reason I came in... the coffee. I ordered your standard mocha latte and they nailed it. The coffee was delicious. Among my group we had fraps, non fat iced mocha, tea, and the gambit! All were done quickly and tasted delicious. Or so said my friends. They have a little room that small parties can enter to have some privacy and we really appreciated it! There are many coffee shops in Kalispell but this is by far my favorite. The hours are from 5pm to 11pm, which stinks if you want morning coffee, BUT they are the only gig in town that is open that late. Many in my party celebrated this fact and said they would frequent River Coffee Company often. Thanks to the staff for giving us a fun, comfortable and CLEAN experience with delicious coffee.

Amazing spot. It's only open Fridays and Saturdays, but I was so happy to find a good café open until 11pm! The staff were warm and friendly, and the chai tea was marvelous. Lots of seating, very cute spot to meet and chat with friends. Fast wifi. An easy place to relax and unwind... It used to be an old movie theater but was converted. The barista, Janelle, was so, so, so kind to me! Wish I wasn't just visiting town for a short while, otherwise I'd love to come here to chill and do work on my laptop!
