The moment you step into Fireweed Cafe & Marketplace, you can feel the love woven into every detail. It’s more than a café—it’s a heart-centered haven. I had the quiche of the day, and it was so delicious I devoured the generous slice without hesitation. Warm, welcoming, and full of soul—if you’re in the area and craving nourishment for both body and spirit, don’t miss this gem.
If my town could support only one coffee shop, I would want it to be exactly like Fireweed. Super friendly staff, friendly clientele too. The GOAT breakfast burrito was on point -- filling and delicious -- and the coffee was good to boot.
Have you ever encountered that place when travelling that you wish you could pack in your suitcase and unfold in your own hometown? Yes, that's Fireweed Cafe. If every business was as well-serviced, prepared, curated, and tended to as Fireweed, that would be my happy place. Fireweed says they have the "world's best coffee" and if you don't agree it's not for lack of effort on their part. Good stuff. Plus, there was good live music during one of our visits. Great smoothies, frittata , kid's grilled cheese, and more. Well done, Fireweed. Well done.
A fantastically quaint coffee shop in Rico, Colorado. The atmosphere is very comfortable and cozy. Seating is plentiful but inside and on the patio. The staff is pretty awesome and very friendly. Aside from the great coffee the menu includes additional hot and cold drinks, food, and pastries. The store contains cute merchandise, shirts, hats, and other items. Plenty of parking along the main road through town.
Rico Colorado's one and only Fireweed Cafe ! Locally owned and operated and staffed by charming locals with an excellent knowledge of the area. Charismatic old time feeling location with state-of-the-art delicious healthy foods. I highly recommend the turkey frittata although it will most likely be sold out if you get there after 9:00 I also had a very nice salad the next day and purchased a bag of dried mangoes that was the best I've ever had! Puppy Parking outside by the side deck with tables. Not to be missed.
