Loyal Coffee

This coffee shop—known for their locally roasted coffee and freshly baked toast (aka the best place for brunch in Colorado Springs)—is located right in the heart of Downtown Colorado Springs. Loyal Coffee roasts their beans inside the Ivywild School in South Colorado Springs—so it is always fresh and full of flavor. The inside of Loyal Coffee has a minimalist-industrial feel with huge windows, open tables, and little stools. I love the natural lighting in this cafe and the baristas are always so friendly.

My favorite thing to order here is their almond milk latte.
