Excellent place to grab coffee, tea, and get some work done. The staff is incredibly friendly, they know most of their customers by name, and the new owner Mark is amazing. If you haven't been here in the last year since he took over, you're really missing out.
While it is usually busy with people meeting and studying, I went in and found it pretty empty. It has a nice comfortable atmosphere with great coffee, home brew or chai and lattes.
Not Starbucks!. I have to pass three Starbucks to get to Pikes Perk but its worth the extra bit of traveling. I tend to go to coffee shops to drink coffee and work or read for extended periods of time. Ambiance is critical, as is the coffee, and Pikes Perk offers both. Chairs and seats are comfortable and there is plenty of room even when busy. Coffee selection is nice and tasty as well. They have a fair selection of breakfast and lunch/dinner offerings. Best of all, it’s a local restaurant with local color.
Nice atmosphere, not the best coffee. Styrophome cups :(
First Time In. First time into this coffee shop, and I must say that I will be going back. Great variety of coffee drinks and food. The breakfast burrito was made fresh for my order and was very well made; bacon was crispy, hash browns were crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. Will be going back in the near future. They also have live music on some nights by local bands.
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.

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 👌👌
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.
First thing to know: THE WATER. Hits like no other. Thirsty? Come to this Pikes Perk. Not feeling coffee? Come refresh your palette with the complimentary water.
Now the coffee: I got an iced latte. The espresso is smooth and not bitter. Great flavor.
We also came on a Saturday morning and saw the blue grass band playing! Very pleasant surprise!
I visited this coffee shop yesterday, after not visiting them for some time. My opinion of them has changed and this coffee shop is now much less desirable than it used to be. My experience yesterday: I wasn't greeted upon entering, waited a long time for the employees to finish their looooong conversation with the patron ordering at the front counter, I then ordered my coffee...and the employee totally spaced on my order...no action to make my beverage for 5 minutes until I walked up to the counter and reminded them about my order. They weren't busy doing anything, they just completely spaced on my order. The place is dirty, not swept or mopped well, one new, mid-30s employee talks incessantly, and the men's bathroom was seriously NASTY. Why should I ever return??
Love this place. My friend took me here while I was visiting from out of town. They have great coffee as well as amazing service. Free wifi is included as well which makes it a good place to sit down and catch up on some work.
Great live music, really good food options and beverage selection. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming. A great place to chill, get work done, have a friendly get together... Just great.
Had a great atmosphere, nice staff and pretty good coffee. I think the best thing about this place is the open atmosphere with the amazing view in the background. Wish I could have spent more time at the shop. Coffee is good and reasonably priced. Hope to come back in the future.
My wife and I are here enjoying coffee and muffins at their regular/periodic Saturday morning Bluegrass Music performance. Today there are 20 local musicians playing guitar, fiddle, banjo, bass, and mandolin. Since it's early December there are some Christmas songs mixed in.
The seating is comfortable and the atmosphere is cozy.
The new owners have updated and upgraded this coffee shop. There is wine and beer, power outlets everywhere, a meeting room with a tv, and best of all good food. They've added items to the menu: from bagels, to sandwiches, cheesecake, and coffee. My new favorite hanging out space.
