Crema's Take

The Loose Caboose has earned a loyal weekly crowd in Missoula with consistently excellent espresso-focused drinks—regulars rave about their signature creations like the Lotus—paired with baristas who remember your name and move through the line with impressive speed. This is a genuinely affordable specialty coffee spot where you can grab your drink quickly through the drive-thru or linger in a family-friendly atmosphere, though it's worth noting that hours can be inconsistent. The standout here is the personal touch: manager Kinlee and her team have built the kind of place where you don't feel like just another order, making it worth the short drive for those nearby.

What to expect

Espresso-focused, with creative signature drinks. A quick-grab spot, good for meetings. Family friendly. Drive-thru.

I'm so glad this location is not far from our house! The coffee is great and the service is always outstanding. Kinlee, the manager of this location, is super sweet. She always remembers my name, drink and my dog's name. There's a reason she won Missoula's Best Barista. I will…
