Sant Ambroeus Coffee Bar

Aspen Coffee Shops Set an Avant-Ski Scene

"The Italian-accented Sant Ambroeus Coffee Bar Aspen brings Milanese sophistication to the snowy streets of the mountain town. Sumptuous Alpine-Modern interiors, designed by Giampiero Tagliaferri Studio, combine walnut wood, Verdi Alpi marble, faux Mongolian lamb fur, corduroy banquettes, and vintage Italian furniture to create a welcoming refuge on a brisk mountain morning. The coffee program includes specialty drinks such as the Montecarlo (espresso, thick hot chocolate, milk foam and cocoa powder), and Shakerato (shaken espresso strained in a martini cup), with pastries ranging from sugar-dusted or chocolate-filled cornetti to Panettone French Toast with fresh berries, maple syrup, and Chantilly cream, and Smoked Salmon Avocado Toast on sunflower bread." - Laura Beausire
