The staff here are SO nice and this is on my favorite part of pearl st. beautiful views with perfect shade, optimal study spot. delicious food and great coffee. will def be coming back!!!

The most wonderful spot to sit outside on a warm day, and enjoy a morning coffee + baked good.

One of our favorite, after Flagstaff cycle climb, coffee reward - and bakery. Beautiful outdoor patio under the trees. Interesting cliental, no tourist. The tour crowd doesnt make it West of Pearl.

Love the place, food, and atmosphere. If you go after lunch, a lot of the baked goods will be picked over. Managed to get a raspberry tart and it was heavenly.

I am a local and have been coming here for about 10 years. My favorites are the espresso drinks and scones. Even if you don’t think you’re a scone person I bet you’ll love these. The mocha latte has a great flavor. Great people watching at the patio. If you’re wanting a specific pastry go early because they can sell out by lunchtime of certain ones. They have made-to-order Italian soda (with cream option) for the kiddos. The non-pastry food is great too: quiche, soup, salads.

Amazing Location 👏Very local thing ❤I like 👍 the chocolate croissantsAnd the coffe was Perfect too ☕

Best GF items... their breads are delicious also can be found at Ziggys..Im in love with the GF breakfast sandwich.Thank you thank you for making breakfast great again...

An epic spot in Boulder with a fantastic outdoor courtyard and excellent food and beverages. Definitely a must visit if you haven’t already. ZacharyEpps.com

The 5 stars are for the excellent coffee, the e-spruce o, for the pastries and the fabulous quartet who entertained us at the courtyard.

The baked goods at Spruce are fantastic, but the customer service is unusually slow. Friendly, but incredibly slow. I think they have a huge area of opportunity here as they usually have a line of 10 people out the door! For now, Ill pick up my Spruce baked goods elsewhere and skip the line.

The products are good, but the customer service is not so good, and I had to walk away the last few times I tried to go there. Really frustrating (like more than just being grumpy in the morning). They only let 4 people in at a time, so that adds to the wait, but then people will lolligag in there. Keep the line moving!

Pretty good food, even better orange juice! The line looked long but the wait wasn’t bad, and the food came out pretty quickly. The patio is very clean and not too busy.

Great food and coffee, and great teas too! Croissants are good, and the breakfast burritos are not bad (coming from someone who generally does not like breakfast burritos).

Super charming, reasonably priced, friendly staff. Cant recommend it enough for a quick breakfast.

Im visiting, spruce was suggested to me, Ive been here every morning now! The staff is so fun & kind! Madeline was super sweet! Ill miss coming here

Literally my new favorite breakfast/brunch/lunch place. Their breakfast burritos, especially the ones with sweet potatoes, are SO DELICIOUS! 20/10. I go here at least twice a week or more. Its just too good.

Straight Fire 🔥This is the best coffee shop in Boulder - a true neighborhood spot for locals. I walk here from my house at least once a week. The staff has incredible energy and the coffee is top notch.

Yummy 😋 I have to say they are.the best bakery and coffee shop in town! Always consistent,and soooo tasty too!!!!!

Best cappuccino in town. No joke!

2-25-2020 cold day in Boulder. Windchill at 16 degrees. But this place was warm. Not many chairs. But I found a place to sit in the corner.A latte and peanut butter cookie. My oh My.

Great coffee and baked goods. Perfect for a slow morning

Scones and coffee never disappoint. A post-hike ritual for me.

Coffee is good; breakfast burrito option and baked treats. Don’t expect helpful or pleasant service.

Nice outdoor seating available while enjoying a tasty coffee. 😋

Great croissants

Lovely little place to grab a hot cuppa and some pastries :)

The best scones Ive ever had.

Excellent espresso and cold brew. A nice spot to people watch and have a good sit.

Loved the scones, best of boulder maybe US, friendley service, the coffe i take it black two shots on point, no bitter.

First time ever. There was a line bc only two people at a time could be in the store. But the line moved really fast. And the food was delicious

It was alright. Cake was extremely dry but flavors were nice

The Ham and Gruyere croissant had one tiny little piece of ham rolled up in the middle and a minuscule amount of cheese. Ive tried in a couple of times and always the same. Its a shame because the croissant itself is delicious.

Excellent Americano, peanut butter cookie and I scored a bag of flour to make pizza tonight. Fabulous staff!

Love the Spruce Juice and baked goods! The gluten-free scones and tea breads are spectacular! I cant recommend them highly enough. Friendly service, but expect to spend at least 10 minutes here, even for just a coffee.

Loved the breakfast burrito! Perfect after you come off the trails!

Not good, not friendly. Coffee was good, hence second star

We go there on Sunday mornings for coffee and music. Excellent coffee and soothing music. Ideal for a Sunday morning place. Quite popular with Boulder people.

This is at the end of the strip, so dont miss it. Cute little coffeeshop with specialty espresso beverages, along with usual ones - I had one of the former. Saw a good variety of pastries in display.

It takes a minute to get coffee and pastries here, but they are well worth the wait. Spruce Confections supplies the Laughing Goat coffee shop, and I have grown very fond of their peanut butter cookies and chocolate zucchini bread over the years.

Many many thank yous to the good people at Spruces who regularly donate their unsold items to their neighbors in the hood, rather than throwing it all away. It very happily gets eaten, and its always appreciated!

This is one of my favorite places in Boulder! The food is unbelievable, the drinks are crafted lovingly and it’s the nicest patio in Boulder by far for nice weather. Be ready to meet nice dogs and kids.

This place keeps disapointing me :/ their sandwiches are always soggy and today I had the NY ganache cheesecake which was super crumbly and overbaked... the coffee and some pastries are fine but probably wont go again :(

We go there often. The staff are friendly and talented.

Our veggie quiche was sub-par, the atmosphere was fun for a quick bite, but going in for a well executed breakfast, we left disappointed. The egg was fairly dense, not light and fluffy, and the crust was gummy, not flaky. Not on par to a bakery staple.We also tried a blueberry crumble, which was exactly as it should be, rich and sweet.But, overall, we wont be returning

Everything here is made with a lot of love and wholesome ingredients. The pastries, soups and breakfast sandwiches are all excellent but its kinda hard to make up your mind with so many great options. They always seem busy, but the staff keeps pace and always provides great service with a smile. I love the tranquil courtyard and being away from the frenzied central part of Pearl.

Great place on the West end of Pearl. The perfect stop to grab a scone and coffee, sit to hang out with a friend, and enjoy Boulder!

Pretty chill little low key spot. Its off the main drag of pearl street so its got a slower vibe.

This is my absolute favorite coffee shop to meet people or sit and read in Boulder. There is limited space inside, so you might have to wait for a spot if its real cold outside, but when its warm theres a wonderful outdoor patio courtyard with trees. Their coffee is the BEST and all their bakery goods and soups, sandwiches etc. are to die for. They have gluten free/vegan options for food and have a few alternative milk options for lattes. A lot of pople stop in to grab coffee and leave to walk pearl st. or wherever it is they go. Theres always a line, but it moves fast. You can buy bulk bread, cookies, or whatever they have on the menu that day.

I love these people and their drinks/treats. They werent snobby to me, but were friendly and warm. The Mocha was delicious. I love their pastries-- all of them.

These guys and gals know how to bake & pull shots of espresso!The chocolate chip cookie they were sampling was just divine. Oaty, richly chocolate flavored without overload and balanced sweetness. Fantastic.The ugly muffin if gooey, fun (and messy) to eat, has a great variety of silky soft, chewy crust, sugar-crunchy nut, and decadently sweet jam center. Lots of variety in different bites, and clearly joyfully creative in its making :)The espresso was mellow in a good way, and lacked the overt acid that I feel is so common in American espresso. Great complement to both the chocolate chip cookie and the ugly muffin.Will *definitely* be back.

They make the best gluten free pumpkin bread Ive ever had. Moist, flavorful and delicious and they deliver all around Denver to different Coffee Shops. I live in the Highlands and always look forward to this. Thanks!

Chocolate croissants! Dog friendly! Tasty gluten free wraps. Great staff. Always have the best experience here.

Outstanding place. Great scones. Small with nice amiable outside patio mickey

Best scones you will ever have. I look forward to coming here every time I am in Boulder. Cute atmosphere as well.

Best croissants in Boulder and their Spruce juice is heaven. I wait all winter for this awesome, addictive beverage. Their staff is always super nice as well.

Had a latte and scone today—their scones were the best I ever had—literally. Highly recommended.

One of my favorite places in Boulder! Great pastries, good chai, good tea selection, awesome baristas.

The food and soup is fresh made. A nice place to get soy hot cholocate too.

Very good scone and latte! This place is usually very busy lots outside seating but really no inside seating.

Visited everyday for a week while in Boulder....my hi light every morning.Cant wait to get back to boulder for my morning delights.Please come to Massachusetts and open a spruce. 🙏

The staff was amazing and the service was top notch. They handled us with great care and I will definitely be back.

I will return again

Spruce confections was really good I just had one concern...One of the workers looked like she hated me...but over all great service and loved the pastries...

Great pastries, super chill patio seating, and great people! The perfect place for a chill Saturday morning with the family.

It is located at tail end of busy Perl St, which is really nice especially when sitting at their out side tables. People seems to enjoy being out there. Unfortunately it was very brief stop, so we only grab a cup of chai, and havent tried their baked goods yet... but chai was very good, nice amount of spice, and I enjoy it very much.

Spruce Juice! Yummy coffee drink. Extremely Pleasant, friendly staff.

GREAT scones 😋. Pretty good coffee -- come here if you love good pastries!

This place is nice and on a relatively quiet part of Pearl Street.

Great place to get your coffee and baked goods. Sometimes in the summer they will have live music playing.

Pastry employee never acknowledged my presence even though It was my turn to be served and it was busy (turn down the music if you cant hear the customers), and when I ordered a coffee from the cashier he didnt hear me either. So I went outside to eat my croissant and drink my coffee I couldve sworn I was at Burger King. Croissant was sodden and chewy and coffee was acrid and over-roasted. I walked back inside, placed my purchased items next to the register without asking for a refund and left. Spruce, Home Of The Crisco Croissant

Very good pastries. My only complaint is that they have no vegan pastries, although they do have some vegan cookies.

Spruce Confections is my favorite coffee shop in Boulder. I think that Boxcar has better coffee, but the pastries, chai lattes, quiches, sandwiches, yogurt parfaits, etc. are all amazing and set Spruce apart from the competition.

Some of myfavorite coffee downtown, especially iced coffee. Super friendly staff. Awesome cookies and snacks.

Stopped in for a quick pick me up. The croissants were very good and the baristas were charming.

What a complete horrible experience. The wife and I got a sandwich across the street. There was a crazy lady barking and going on near the store so we decided to go across the street and eat at the confections place and planned on trying a dessert afterward. It was not crowded at all so we started to eat. 5 minutes into our meal a pompous guy come out and says hello! Then says this is reserved for paying customers only and we can’t eat there. The wife says we will leave then. And I said and we will never come back. We got into our car 5 feet away and fonahes our meal. There were 11 free tables besides ours but he went around and made sure the other two people had purchased something. Then the idiot gets into his car and takes off. He didn’t even pay to park in the parking area like we did. While we finished we looked around and saw a couple small prints saying for spruce customers only. They were not very big which is why we didn’t notice them. And even if we had, we would have sat down because we intended on having dessert there. But I don’t want to give my business to someone that treats people that way. At all. And if I was a customer looking into wether to shop here or not I would like to know information like this which is why I took the time to write a review. I will NEVER even think about trying this place again. And when it comes up in conversation you can guess what I’ll have to say about the “service” here.

The service is no good but those breakfast sandwiches are awesome on the off chance they have them

Spruce Confections is an establishment in Boulder among bakeries. This location has been known to have outdoor patio music on weekends. Bring back your pecan bar, Spruce Confections!

Good coffee and baked goods, but lines are long and service slow.

Highly recommend the ham & gruyere croissant!

Best pastries in town... I will walk on on the other side of the street to avoid being tempted.

Incredibly rude and unprofessional staff. They completely forgot about my order, but had plenty of time to joke around, eat, and help about 10 other people before me.

Fantastic coffee and pastries! Much more havent tried yet.

Theyve got 2 locations in town (the other is on North Broadway). They both have great service and a good selection of local tea and coffee.

Spruce Confections now sells gluten free products in several cafes in Denver. They do not provide ingredient lists for their foods even though multiple cafes have asked repeatedly for a list.

Great tasting coffee, breakfast sandwiches cookies pies and cakes!

1 word Amazing
