Wayfinder Coffee Co.

The cutest cafe spot in Colorado Springs. The atmosphere is excellent, the vibes are immaculate, and both the staff and the clientele are super cool. It's perfect for locals, tourists, and anyone looking for a nice spot to relax. Plenty of tables and outlets, and a gorgeous outside patio to enjoy when the weather is nice. They are always crazy busy, so please include that in your schedule when you stop here. Admittedly, I wasn't super impressed by either of the drinks I got here--but I'm not a coffee drinker, so I'm not the best judge of refreshments. However, the spinach artichoke danish haunts my every waking moment like a siren song: perfectly crispy with just the right hint of dill; it is peak buttery decadence. It is the reason I went three times during my week in town. I will be desperately searching for even a poor imitation in my hometown and on AllRecipes until my return. ❤️

Great place to grab and go for pastries and desserts. Brownies are decadent. Cruffins and laminated pastries are awesome and made in-house. They also have a selection of savory goodies like ham and cheese croissants and both quiches and crust less quiches. Always packed and good luck finding parking and seating on the weekends. There is outdoor patio seating that is dog friendly, but there is not a lot of shade and it gets hot fast out there. Very hectic and loud when it's busy not a casual stop for catching up with friends. Love the chalkboard art, it's too cute!

Such a cool place. They definitely need more of them, very busy and maybe even another staff member or two. Great cap but even more, we enjoyed the small bites. The Apple Cruffin I would get again along with the almond croissant wow! Cool cold brew set up as you walk in (pictured). Check it out and stay a bit to enjoy the atmosphere. Bon Voyage!

My husband and I enjoy coming here when we are in Colorado. Usually we order the hott lattes in which is served in the larger cups. The raspberry lemon pastry was delicious and not overly with raspberries like most are.

Wayfinder Coffee was our go-to coffee stop during our visit to Colorado Springs! They have great coffee drinks, from basic to fancy, and a nice selection of fresh baked pastries (try a crossiant-trust, it's so delicious!) Really good location and nice patio seating (mostly shaded, not much sun) for when it gets nice out. They get busy so get there early to beat the line!

Love the esthetic with incredible coffee/espresso and nosh n' treats to compliment. It's spacious with a friendly, knowledgeable staff which makes you feel warm and welcome.

Wayfinder Coffee is truly a hidden gem in Colorado Springs! From the moment I walked in, I was captivated by the incredible design elements—every detail felt intentional and inspiring. The atmosphere strikes the perfect balance between cozy and modern, making it an ideal spot for everything from a casual coffee run to a long, relaxing visit. The service was exceptional; the staff was welcoming, knowledgeable, and attentive, enhancing the overall experience. The food and coffee were absolutely amazing! Each dish and drink felt crafted with care, showcasing a depth of flavor and quality that stands out in a sea of coffee shops. Wayfinder Coffee has quickly become one of my favorite places in Colorado Springs, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fantastic coffee and dining experience with top-tier ambiance and service. Can't wait to visit again!

Went there a couple times on vacation in June and I was my disappointed great coffee and the muffin and cheese cake brownie was delicious. Will definitely be back when I’m in town.

Best coffee in Colorado Springs, hands down and the latte art is absolutely lovely! I'm a fan of drinking a fancy coffee from an actual china cup and don't feel I do it enough but when I get the time to do so, this is where I go! This place is tucked away in a quiet little neighborhood and is the most divine find. The staff is very pleasant and though there is nearly always a long line they handle it with grace and move rather quickly to help everyone. The food is delicious, both savory and sweet and I've indulged in both. My favorite coffee is a butterscotch latte, I find most shops don't carry it and they make it to perfection here. I've had multiple pastries, all richly delicious and worth sharing and the quiche is a standout for the savories for me. Their patio is a wonderful spot on a nice day and the inside is great for a remote working spot or just to enjoy some time with friends. If I could afford to come here everyday I would, it's that good!!!!

I liked the theme that this place had throughout with a traveler/adventurer theme seen throughout this coffee shop. The line moved quickly and our order didn't take too long to come out. The baristas were friendly and I decided to get the house made soda titled the "paradise daydream." I added cream as well. The price was a little steep but expected at a trendy coffee shop. When I picked up the order, they forgot my cream which I paid more for and hastily added some after double-checking with the cashier that I indeed ordered it with cream. They then poured way too much making my soda taste like milk after they were done with it. Overall, the experience was nice, but I think I'll stick with an iced latte next time I'm there.

Been here several times and always enjoy the atmosphere & drinks! Of their fancy brews, I've tried colorado campfire & the spice road. Definitely loved spice road the most - pretty much fall in a cup. Also have had my go to iced oat milk latte with sf vanilla - just as good as anywhere! Wasn't blown away by their quiches, but open to trying other savory or baked goods - they always look so tasty in the window! Great place to meet a friend, study, or work on emails; although may be too loud to take a call. They seem to always be busy, so the earlier you go, the better chance you'd find a place to sit. Enjoy!

I'm not sure if I'd lean towards 3.5 or 4. The service was good and everyone we spoke with was very nice! It also didn't take as long as expected after reading some reviews lol. Really really cute place love the vibe of this shop. The coffee is also good the food however is kind of strange. The veggie frittata tastes just like taco seasoning it was kind of strange but not terrible. I just feel like that's where I'm conflicted it wasn't bad but taco flavored frittata isn't very traditional haha. Also looks like a great spot to study and just get some work done.

Cute place ! I love the vibe. Little loud but it was pretty packed so noise level was expected. Great cappuccino but a bit strange frittata . We ordered the vegetable one and it has overpowering taste of cumin. I didn't expect cumin in frittata and definitely not this much of it . Cappuccino was good .Service was friendly and quick.

This cute coffee shop has a fun traveler theme with a busy and energetic vibe. They have great drinks and unique and delicious pastries that make for a great variety of options for you to try. While we had a good experience, it was quite chaotic when we were trying to order. There weren't any menus and the order took quite a while and most of the people working were standing just talking even with a line almost out the door. I won't let that distract from the quality, though. If you want a new unique coffee spot, this would be a good one to try.

Global traveler lover theme coffeeshop. Artisan house-made bakeries included muffin, quiche, lavender knot, lemon ricotta bar etc. First thing you walking into Wayfinder you will have to get in line to order with cashier, and they will call your name for pick up. I always love the latte art on my coffee foam :) According to their Wayfinder Chronicle, some night they sets up game night, wine tasting night as well. They grind & roasted their own coffee bean. There are always working from home people & their laptop everywhere in this coffeeshop. Bathroom is clean & well decorated. Coffee tastes perfect to me. Not over tasting rosemary in my coffee. Either not too sweet as they put brown sugar in. Carnivore quiche came perfectly done. Still fluffy with lots of meats & veggies inside. The crust texture is not mushy, nor too hard. Yummy & crispy as it should be! Wayfinder coffee is a local favorite coffeeshop. Prepare extra time to wait around on the weekend.

I spent about two hours here yesterday with my Bible study group and it was nice. The staff never bothered us. The music wasn't too loud and frankly, the ambience was quite nice. I was really shocked at how late a coffee shop stays open. They're open until nine, but we only stayed until eight. This place also doubles as like a dirty soda shop and wine bar. I personally wish they had had Matcha options, but perhaps that's because I'm kind of basic... I ended up just getting this like peach herbal tea as 6 is far too late for me to drink espresso. I enjoyed it. Notably we didn't order food, but we saw people's food and it looked wonderful.

Patio with the best view of Pikes Peak. Campfire hot coffee is my favorite to sip in comfortable outdoor patio chairs in the morning! Great breakfast biscuits with avo, tomato, and egg & melted cheese !!! Staff is extremely fast and everything is delicious. Fresh produce every time!! Staff is friendly and inside store the seating is more comfortable. Try the coldbrew in addition to hot coffee creations. Amazing location, views and attention to detail. Lots of other sweets and small quiche tarts near the checkout. Very popular location , so get there early!!

I was asked to get some pastries and found this gem while browsing bakery spots in yelp. I thought that they were not going to have a big selections since I went late in the day, and to my surprise, they had a wonderful assortment of sweet and savory pastries. I didn't spend much time there, as the nice gentleman who took care of me was very efficient. The place seemed chill and spacious. Got to go again to experience to whole place. I'm didn't get to taste all the pastries, the ones I tried were delicious.

A large travel theme spacious beautiful cozy local coffee shop. Very good quality local coffee by exceptional baristas with great service and delicious pastries. They also have patio seating for good weather. Strongly recommend this coffee shop for the best local coffee shop in Colorado springs.

I got the spice road latte, and let me tell you it is absolutely divine. My boyfriend got a London fog that he really enjoyed as well for non coffee drinkers. The drinks were out quickly, the staff were very kind, and the atmosphere was absolutely lovely with a clean interior and lovely wooden setting. I got my drink to go but will definitely be coming back when k have more time!

I drink black coffee so my knowledge of all the different and unique coffee ideas they have here is limited. But the black coffee is fantastic! They roast their own beans which tells me they know what they're doing. Great speed in coffee even while packed which is definitely gonna happen at a place like this. Also one of the most unique themes I've seen in a coffee place which really made you feel like you were at a post in the West Virginia Trading Company Absolutely recommend going here.

Honestly, not impressed. The coffee was okay but definitely overpriced, and my americano was so bitter I thought maybe I was the problem, turns out it wasn't me. The pastry was bland and tasted like it had been sitting out all week. The place looked pretty old inside, and the service felt rushed with zero conversation or welcome. Just not the kind of coffee shop I'd return to. Very overhyped..

5 stars if they got their order processing under control. There's multiple solutions like QR menus, multiple point of sale systems, etc. The coffee and food are great, but the line gets out of control and sometimes you wait 20-30 minutes to place your order, then there's no place to sit.

Pretty cool place, ood ambiance and chill place to relax. I got the spice road and it's pretty good.

Packed house on a "snowy" day, but coffee and snack were both very good, and staff friendly and outgoing. Enjoyed striking up a conversation with a friendly patron. I'll be back!

Great selection of coffee and tea, both savory and sweet baked goods and fantastic ambiance. And I just noticed on my last visit that they use my favorite French glassware (Duralex) - very classy!

This coffee was DELICIOUS! Cheap prices and the brown butter rice crispy was amazing. Will certainly be going back, might just be my favorite coffee in the springs! The place was so incredibly beautiful inside and unique and the people were very kind! I'm

What a gem!! Don't judge by the parking area. Nestled in a very small strip mall and a smallish parking area for the businesses, the inside is like walking into the TARDIS. Much bigger than expected. And the decor is inviting and thematic with the Wayfinder name. Very comfortable, I could easily work here with my laptop. Plenty of seating and very busy. That is explained by the great coffee and selection of pastries and other breakfast fare. The baristas were very pleasant and helpful, especially since this was our first adventure here. I had "the Spiced Road" hot coffee. Mmmmmm. Perfect amount of spices. Did I say mmmmm yet? The food was great! The Mrs had an apple strudel. Large and fresh. I devoured the "Carnivore " breakfast sandwhich. The biscuit was the star. Moist, fresh, crumbly yummy. We WILL be back.

What a wonderfully eclectic atmosphere! Uber busy for a Tuesday morning! Heading home to Oklahoma and Wayfinder was highly recommended and so, here we are. I'm one of "those" people, who, for my love of fall, also love pumpkin spice coffee drinks. I'm thoroughly enjoying my coffee! Great pit stop toward home! Friendly and very busy baristas! And picked up a package of the just coffee to take home!

The best coffee shop in the Springs. Hands down. Food: we got the apple strudel and the biscuits & gravy and it was so good. Especially the biscuits & gravy!! Must try to all. Coffee: we got the batch brew and the chemex. A decent cup of coffee! 8/10. Ambiance & vibes: bustling with people catching up, students studying, people writing (how cool!). Service: our barista was super nice and very helpful in recommendations!

The staff was so polite, the atmosphere was amazing. Got our coffees within 5 mins of ordering, and the coffees were PHENOMENAL. Wish I lived in springs just so I could go here everyday

Decent coffee and great vibes. Their oat milk is a little funky and drinks are often too sweet, but asking for drinks a little less than half sweet usually turns out perfect. Good food and pastry selection!

Such a true treasure of a neighborhood coffee shop! I love the atmosphere, coffee, pastry and breakfast menus.

Wayfinder is a popular coffee and food stop. Too popular. Everyone should stop going so I can enjoy it alone. :). Great coffee, excellent food, superior service.

This is my favorite coffee shop in town! The pastries and lattes are what I'll regularly order and I'm never disappointed. The staff is always friendly.

Just a lovely casual yet fancy coffee shop! The service is wonderful and friendly! The coffee is great and the food is fantastic! Unique and special food. The cruffin is a must do! Great ambiance.

I've been here a few times to meet up with friends. The decor is cool, old-school world traveler. The coffee and baked goods are always so tasty. I've read some reviews saying service was slow, but I've never had a problem with that. It may be slower than the national drive-through option, but not by much. And the quality is so much better. I always enjoy my visits at Wayfinder.

Super super super cute! There is a 1920-1940s vibe with the old maps, wooden furniture, vintage arm chairs, vintage travelling bags and jazzy music. It is a great place to spend hours working/reading/people watching/hanging out. We got the bramble mocha, veggie quiche with the vegetable soup, and burrata caprese. Servers were friendly and service was fairly quick. The mocha was actually delicious. It had blueberry and hints of lavender. I hate lavender in pretty much everything because it tends to overpower every other flavor but this was done to perfection. The mocha itself wasn't super strong caffeine-wise as I have had no tremors/anxiety/sleep issues. The burrata with caprese was delicious. Pesto was good, the burrata itself was good and it was a decent portion size. The vegetable and pasta soup was ok. Could've done with more flavor. The quiche was decent. Egg-y as expected but fair exposure to the veggies. My friend and I are definitely coming back and this time we are bringing more people to experience Wayfinder!

I love this place a lot and I'll go again for coffee or drinks. Next time I will stay away from their Gluten friendly eggs with Mushroom and parmesan cheese. Not sure what happened but I had a bad reaction and throat swelled up.

Really fun and creative environment. Fresh homemade pastries that are unbelievably good! The coffee options are top notch I had the Papua New Guinea medium roast in a chemex pour over and the quality and taste of the coffee was excellent fruity tones with a citrus like finish. The staff was very friendly and informed they helped with the pastry selection and coffee option. I highly recommend this as a quiet morning get away or place for a connect with a friend.

Lovely place, amazing Biscuits and Gravy, & nice staff!! Strangely, the coffee served to us the past 3 times however has been lukewarm at best each time!! 3 times and it becomes a negative trend but one that should be an easy fix!! It's just unfortunate to consistently receive warm coffee in a coffee shop!!

Food was mediocre at best. Service was very slow even with the limited service. I guess if you just want to drink coffee and work on your laptop it is probably OK.

A bit crowded for my liking. Parking was a tad difficult, but I was determined to try a new coffee spot. The ambience was great, but a little noisy (I'll remember the noise cancelling headphones next time). I ended up with my go to hot Americano (Great price) and decided to try their biscuit and gravy. Both were delicious and I was not disappointed in taste. Would definitely make it out here again and highly recommend!

This coffee shop was really great! Everything about it was awesome! The place had a steady flow of customers, and there's definitely a reason why. The coffee is excellent and smooth. Had a cappuccino, black coffee, and an affogato. All excellent! This coffee shop isn't trying to go with the norm. It's comfortable being it's very own type of shop. That's the way it ought to be. The service was great, and everyone was friendly. Definitely will be back.

Stopped off at Wayfinder Coffee the other day because I needed to fill my Java tank ;-) Their coffees are great!  The flavors are creative and flavorful, and the service is fast and friendly :-) This place is totally worth checking out if you find yourself in the area.

Great ambiance but rice krispy was stale and tea was from concentrate. Overpriced for quality. Not really impressed.

Lattes and toast are good! There's ample seating inside and out. It does get busy midday with people holding meetings. You can drown out most of the noise with headphones.

I really want to like this place. BUT. Coffee takes too long to get. Food as well unfortunately. Especially if its a to go. Ughhh. The woman who I suspect is the owner, is also very unfriendly to her customers. I usually go to Holdfast or Switchback. Way better vibe and service. Thank you for reading.

The staff is friendly, helpful and fast. The food is to die for, the coffee is great and there is a lot of options for everyone. Gluten, gluten free as well as non dairy and dairy! Coffee, tea, smoothies and more! The shop is very chic and has a wonder aesthetic. There is indoor and outdoor seating, and plenty of room. This is my to go, favorite coffee shop in Colorado Springs. Sometimes on the weekend they are very busy and the line might take 15 minutes but they work very fast and it's worth the wait. The ham and Swiss croissant is my favorite and a must try!

Just love this place! Hadn't been here in a while and I forgot how much I like it. The coffee is great and the bakery items are delicious. Great place for date night, girls night or studying. It was pretty busy this evening with a few big groups but didn't feel loud at all.

Loving this place. Best part it's close to home and everything is so fresh!! The stuffed croissants are my favorite!! They are so flaky and buttery. They make everything from scratch and offer lots of variety. Their coffee is made with love and fresh. Not a ton of seating or parking so you will have to find the right time to go. But it's clean and nice feel to read a good book or study!! Whatever floats your boat!! Check this place out!!

Visiting family in the Springs and went hunting for some top-tier coffee. Wayfinder did not disappoint! Super solid espresso and 3rd wave bean choices. All kinds of high end coffee-based drinks. They even have wine and food if you're looking for a that as well. Def worth a stop if you need a good cup of coffee!

This coffee shop is very cute and seems like a cool place to hang out. However, when we walked in on a late weekday morning, the place was very busy. Very packed inside, no social distancing, and no mask-wearing from a lot of their patrons. I appreciated their drink and food selection. My iced Thai tea and cheese croissant was delicious but definitely overpriced. We also didn't have to wait long for our order even though the place was very busy.

Maybe i'm crazy bc everyone else raves about this place but it was very meh to me... the folks up front weren't very kind but i get that since it was early afternoon and im sure the lunch rush had just passed, but the salad i got took forever and was very mid for the price (small and 90% toppings), the atmosphere is very nice and im sure its a great spot to work but if you're looking for a quick coffee and snack i wouldn't recommend:(

This is a cool place, very busy, but good atmosphere. The baristas are hardworking and welcoming, and my iced latte was tasty! I will return and enjoyed my coffee and time here

This is my favorite coffee / cafe place in the springs. Staff is always super nice even though they may be swamped. Food is always good. Coffee is great. The art and decor is one of a kind. Having the coffee bar in the middle is awesome.

Awesome coffee shop with a great vibe!! Came here on a Saturday morning and enjoyed some coffee and a pastry. Side note: one of the nicest public bathrooms I've been in. Lol
