Stopped here daily while skiing CB this week. Tried the breakfast burrito (pre-made, for 9), Americano, Latte, etc. Picked up a bag of their Dawn Patrol whole bean (12oz, 18) too. Baristas were friendly, coffee was good. Enjoyed taking it out by the firepit in the plaza. Will be back.

Cozy coffee shop located at the base area of Mt Crested Butte, a minute walk from the lifts. Great coffee drinks, tasty pastries, some vegan options. Friendly staff, nice space.

For the past 2 years we have been skiing here and always start our morning at the Coffee Lab. The service, atmosphere and coffee is fantastic. The food is premade and is decent. I tend to get a breakfast burrito and a coffee and my spouse gets a muffin and latte. Our total bill is approximately 20, which is very reasonable for the area. We love this place!

The Coffee Lab is the BEST coffee after a long day of skiing in Crested Butte. It’s only about 200 feet from the base of the mountain. Considering we bribe our children to ski with hot chocolate, they are the PERFECT place to get coffee for us parents and hot chocolate for the kiddos! #winning. They also offer muffins, bagels from Butte Bagels (the best in town!), and donuts. The milk choices they offer are whole milk, skim milk, almond milk, or oat milk. Enjoy!

Thought our weekend we sampled all their pastries and each one was a winner! Busy close to when the mountain opens but thats to be expected. They open at 7 so get your butt up!

Best (only?) vegan burrito in Crested Butte! Has plant based chorizo, just egg, violife cheese, potatoes, and green chile. SO GOOD ...

Ordered drinks here almost everyday for a week and their coffee, mocha, and especially chai (they use Sherpa Chai) are the best I’ve had (coming from nyc). Staff are super friendly and their hours are very convenient.
