Jarhead Coffee Company

Came early today, I was counting on coffee. To my disappointment the Cafe was not open at 0915hrs. The posted open hours are 0700hrs until 1600hrs. Won't make that mistake again, starbucks opens on time and I will spend my time and money there in the future. I have been here 20 minutes and watched several other veterans walk away from the caged in establishment with a disapproving look on their face. Maybe they should change their name to Space Force Cafe.

this place is right off the busy road of academy. it’s very spacious and has a variety of different types of seating (both outside and inside). they even have a private room for big meetings. i stayed here for roughly 4 hours and no one complained, and there was enough seating for other customers, even when the shop was at its busiest. the customer service was average. i ordered a medium americano with pumpkin pie spice and it was so-so. it was about 4.80. tasted like the cup of coffee i make at home, didn’t really taste the pumpkin-ness, but it wasn’t bad. when she was making it, she asked if i wanted room for cream and i said sure just because i like adding my own cream. then she hands it to me and says “i added cream” just something i didn’t prepare for. they give also ordered an egg croissant sandwich with spinach and swiss cheese. it was kind of bland and i could’ve made it better at home. this place does not have music. they have a small book shelf for “take a book, leave a book” and games that you can use. overall this place is great for if you are wanting pastries (sweet breads, croissants, danishes, cinnamon rolls, and cake) or delicious burritos. i’d probably go somewhere else tho if i want a smooth cup of coffee. i might come back to try their lattes. i didn’t get one this time tho because they were so expensive (5.15 plus another .99 for added flavor). update (12/2022) their lattes are so nice. probably one of the best i’ve had in colorado springs. the roast was sweet and smooth. they’ve really upped their game. quiche was okay, probably won’t get it again as the smell was kind…off-pudding. their cinnamon rolls, though, very good, very good 👌👌

The quiche and tea I had were both really good. The outside seating was great to have views of the mountains. The vibes inside were a little…off? Hard to say but it felt better being outside. Overall a good experience still.

We love to try local coffee shops. Unfortunately this one missed the mark. Service was good, and the danish was good. Both mine and my husband's coffees tasted burned. And they were extremely thick and sweet. The place looks a bit run down, my cup had a big chip on top. It just wasn't a comfy, welcoming place. We ate the danish and left most of the coffee.

Cozy atmosphere with spacious seating inside and out on the patio. A plentiful display of freshly made brunch items and a unique variety of drinks are competitively priced at the counter. Friendly service with attention to detail and time awareness.
