My first visit to Rosco’s for breakfast and coffee was comfy and relaxing. My wife and I enjoyed the Halloween decorations. Theyre fun to look at! The service is friendly and attentive. Consistent business while we were visiting Sunday 7:30am. Breakfast and coffee was good. Pleasant neighborhood to walk around after coffee.
It’s a corner house located at Walnut and Bijou. The inside is black and white. Modern feel with wall art by Jade Doe. Multimedia water color and cut paper illustrations with LED lights.This is our last coffee house on this trip and the entire trip, I’ve been getting honey lavender or Matcha at various stops. I got the matcha at Rosco’s and it was not sweet. It’s the bitter matcha flavor. I prefer sweet so adding sugar tasted better for my liking.My friend got cortado. That would have been my second choice. Not many places offer cortado. I also like my cortado sweet and would have asked the barista to make it with condensed milk but my friend did not so it’s bland and bitter. She had to add sugar after.Overall, great place for coffee lovers as the drinks are strong and you can add sugar to your liking. Giving this place a 5 because my sweet preference shouldn’t be a star knockdown. They still have great taste, quality, service, price, and atmosphere.
Food is good, service is amazing,Coffee was okay. Seemed weak and tasted like Waffle House coffee.
A great little shop with a pleasant vibe and friendly employees.
Very cute hidden gem of a coffee shop! Their quiche and cinnamon rolls were AMAZING! Really nice place! Prices are ok! But worth it especially the food!!!
Cute clean place with amazingly friendly staff! The guy who helped us was so nice. The iced wildflower latte was amazing (I’m picky) sweet and not bitter. The ham and cheese panini with green Chili’s was also super tasty!! Will definitely be back.
Cute little coffee shop off the beaten path downtown with quality coffee and products to suit and palate. The staff is friendly and the pricing if fair compared to most places with weekly specials. A great place to find some peace and quiet and get your work done or meet with a friend and catch up. We are well versed on our local coffee shops and Roscos jumped to the top five on pur list!!!
This locally-owned, women-owned coffee shop is where it’s at! Great drinks (try the maple cream cold brew), great staff, and great location. Support these amazing human beings!
Great coffee, including seasonal brews. They had a pumpkin creme cold brew that was delicious and not overly sweet
I wish so badly Google would allow half star or decimal ratings...As of July 2021, the reviews for Roscos are sitting at 4.6 stars, and Id say thats perfectly accurate based off my 3-4 visits here.The coffee is fantastic. 5 star worthy.I had the honey almond latte over ice, and it was worth the $5.92. Is that expensive for coffee? Sure. But is it expensive for gourmet hand-poured coffee from a local shop? Not really. At least not with todays prices. And Id much rather support places like Roscos than Starbucks.The downside to Roscos is the homeless population that can linger at times. Today there was a homeless woman who had, more or less, set up camp at 1 of the 2 outside patio tables. Im not sure what Roscos stance on that is...if I had to guess, they likely tell people that tables are reserved for paying patrons, but do they enforce it?? Can they? And to what extent? Im a local and I can attest that the Colorado Springs community and many 501(c)(3) organizations do plenty for the homeless who wish to no longer be homeless. In other words, Im not overly sympathetic to those who choose to live on the streets. For now, Roscos is still safe and clean so Ill continue to go there. However, if it becomes a local hangout for the homeless (due to either policy or location) Ill chose to go somewhere else so that I can have a good cup of coffee AND sit outside and enjoy it.
I love local coffee shops and Rosco’s is one of my favorites now!!Absolutely cute on the inside and out. It is a smaller place, but when you go in on a quiet hour it’s very enjoyable! The lady who was there was super kind and helpful (helped me pick a unique tasteful coffee!)Definitely will be going back often!
Roscos has great coffee and delicious muffins! The batistas are friendly, the customer service top notch. I stop there every time I am in Colorado Springs.
Whenever I am not running late to work (which is infrequent) I stop by Rosco’s for incredible coffee & pastries. I have yet to be disappointed by anything here! 13/10 would recommend!
My team come here all the time. I was visiting and came a couple times and had great espressos and I think it was a maple cold brew which was amazing!
Lovely place, many regulars who the staff knew and the prices are very fair
I love Rosco’s! The space is so warm and welcoming. Service is top notch and both the food and coffee are delicious. And the owner, Annette, is awesome. I’m so thankful for this local gem!
Tasty coffee and pie! Friendly service. Convenient, pleasant place. Streetside or inside seating
Nice coffee place in a vintage house in the cozy area of Westside.
Pros: A charming shop in an equally charming neighborhood. The barista was friendly and helpful--the pastries are very tempting. Great location.Cons: They only had one roast which was very light. If you prefer the southern Italian style of espresso (darker roast) you may find Roscos coffees and espressos to be on the tart and acidic side. Would be great if they offered a dark roast as well.
Cute neighborhood coffee shop, the maple cream cold brew was perfect!
I just came and it was nice... The music was sad, Id say you should play some more upbeat music. I didnt get anything to eat, but the scones and stuff looked great. They should have more stuff like smoothies. I asked and all they had like that was a protein banana smoothie. Other than that it was really nice! There were some nice places to sit and it was just really rrlaxed.
Great service. Excellent coffee. Tasty breakfast. Quick and easy.
Good coffee but they had no food around 2pm.
Quaint coffee shop with a home feeling with friendly employees. Great place for a meet n greet place. Highly recommended
Very friendly service & the coffee was really delicious and will definitely be there again & again... Reminds me of ships in Berkeley, Calif around the university campus.
Excellent place for a cup of.coffee! Nestled nicely in a neighborhood with a good vibe.
Great local coffee shop. The barista was very friendly and made us awesome drinks. My wife loved her macha latte. They are very generous with their macha not diluted like some of the other places weve been. My daughter said that it was the best hot chocolate she has ever had 😂 . Check them out they are great!
Ordered an Americano and it’s excellent, great espresso roast. Staff is welcoming and friendly.
Amazing coffee and atmosphere! The staff were very friendly and welcoming. Adorable little coffee shop
Fantastic coffee shop with friendly baristas and even a Saturday run club!
What a lovely place. We were heading out on a road trip and out of habit we plugged in Starbucks into our GPS because we wanted drive thru but when we got there it was inside a King Soopers and we werent feeling like going in. We had eyed Roscos on the map and decided to give it a shot. We honestly prefer independent coffee shops normally but get lazy when we go on road trips. So glad we went to Roscos in the end. Beautiful shop in a beautiful area with the friendliest staff and a better latte (IMHO) than Starbucks. Also the breakfast burrito was delicious. If I lived in Colorado Springs full time Roscos would be my coffee spot.TLDR: Great! 100% recommended
This place has always been special to me since my childhood dog back home in Illinois is named Rosco. Today, after 16 years, we had to put my dog down and it’s one of the hardest things I’ve ever been through. I wanted to celebrate his life by going to this coffee shop but the barista didn’t even want to serve us. The shop missed out on $30 worth of profit because she refused to grind up coffee beans since she had just cleaned the grinder. She wouldn’t even make a simple smoothie after we tipped her well for the one iced coffee she agreed to make. We weren’t even trying to order food or anything complicated. At most everywhere, you can’t even start cleaning or closing up until after closing time. In my past serving experiences, you can’t tell customers no until after close. Today has already been the worst day for me and this experience was just the cherry on top.
Had a flower power latte. It was tasty! Lots of yummy looking pastries and sandwiches.
We love Roscos! We got to know Annette, the new owner, when she was working for the original owner, and she was truly the reason we kept coming back. We were so thrilled to hear shes taken over the business!Annette pours a mean cuppa coffee and supports womxn and womxn-owned businesses, having an incredible staff of female baristas and highlighting Hold Fast Coffees roasts and pastries from Snowberry Bakehouse at the cafe. We are lucky to live in the neighborhood and enjoy a damn fine cup of coffee whenever we want! Annette has created such a welcoming and safe space for all people who love great coffee!
I AM ABSOLUTELY IN LOVE WITH THIS CAFE!! It’s extremely adorable, it has immaculate vibes, has a very hard-working staff, the owner is always so kind and full of humor, and of course... a damn fine cup of coffee 💕🙏
We loved visiting Roscoes when we were in Colorado Springs recently. We stumbled across it the first time we went, and then made it a point to return later in the week. The staff was friendly, and the coffee was incredible. I always get the weird stuff, so when I saw they had a lavender latte I was all-in. I got it with oat milk and really loved it.
The service was lovely. The coffee and cherry pie were delicious.
Very pleasant very good COFFEE
I stumbled across this gem over 3 years ago and have been going weekly ever since! The coffee, atmosphere, and owner are the best. This location is accessible and right off the Bijou exit, which is super convenient if youre from out-of-town or heading to work. The baked goods and local-artist-of-the-month display are lovely bonuses.
I’ve lived in Colorado Springs for about a year now, and trying out various coffee shops has become one of my favorite things to do! I can honestly say Rosco’s is easily my favorite :) I like how they change up their menu based on the season, and right now they have an AMAZING wildflower latte. It’s lavender and honey, and it’s super creamy and delicious! A must try for the summertime :) Check out their cute lil shop and grab yourself the tastiest summer latte you will ever have!
Super cute coffee shop! Relaxing inside, clean, and nice staff. Support the locals and go here!!! 😃😃
Super cute coffee shop and great staff! Best cinnamon roll we’ve ever had, hands down.
The best! Thanks for serving us so well during these crazy times. The staff here is so sweet and the coffee is exceptional.
Try the wildflower latte! You wont be disappointed!
Great coffee and food, and a wonderful personal experience. All the baristas that Ive met are very friendly and nice.
Great local coffee and snack stop. Right off the interstate exit so its super convenient and very friendly baristas with a cool atmosphere featuring rotating local art on the walls. Favorite espresso in the Springs!
Fantastic coffee and breakfast joint with excellent service. The bagel sandwich with sausage and egg is awesome. My wife and I make it a point to stop here every time we’re in Colorado Springs. Highly recommend Roscoe’s, we’ve stopped here many times and have never been disappointed.
I went here two days in a row and both baristas were awesome! One was the owner (didn’t catch her name), who was super friendly and easy to talk to. The coffee beans they sell are good quality and local. I’m not sure if the pastry options are GF, breakfast burritos are not. My husband and friends got burritos and said they were very good and filling! This shop also offers milk substitutes.
Drinks are decent and the strawberry banana bread was tasty
Super cute and welcoming place! Great coffee and food. Amazing way to start the day :)
Super friendly barista and great tasting coffee!
Great coffee and great atmosphere!
The owner was horrible to my husband and I this morning when we asked if they had a restroom after buying 2 lattes. She said due to the pandemic they had no bathroom. Then proceeded to break down in tears and began screaming at us! She threw the espresso apparatus in her hand and was very angry. We asked for our money back since she was unable to make a latte. She threw our money at us and ordered us to leave. I am a business owner myself and was so embarrassed for her lack of professionalism. Throwing an object at a customer? Lucky I didnt make an assault charge sweetheart. I truly hope you learn coping skills as all we were attempting to do was support your business. We were shocked and felt harassed. I wish you luck and my next call will be to the Better Business Bureau. Namaste ✌
Really nice spot. Very tasty coffee and food and excellent decor. Only thing is wish they had more outdoor seating, right now during covid indoor seating is closed and they only have one table for outside.
Great decaf, good prices, friendly and efficient service, cute space. Nothing not to like, really.My companions really enjoyed their Irish Toddy and Vanilla Iced Latte.Patio seating currently available.
Roscos is amazing! They have great flavor coffee, great latte flavors, and the barista is so sweet and friendly! The atmosphere is calming even outside. You cant stay inside atthe moment but its still so relaxing. They have coffee for sale and I will be buying some soon. Please go to Roscos, you will enjoy it so much.
Customer service was great! Good coffee. No burnt/over roasted taste. Cute atmosphere. Would be a great little spot to relax.
Great coffee! Wildflower was amazing!
Rosco’s might not serve chicken and waffles but they do have tasty coffee and teas. Baked goods taste fresh and are varied. Even some gluten and vegan options my kid said was yummy. Pour overs are done using a Hario and their kettle is a bonavita (I peeked over the counter). Calm music at a low volume and very friendly staff. They do have a reward program for coffee but their food prices are a bit higher than average especially since they are pre-made and warmed up to order. However the panini press is a better idea than the microwave a lot of coffee shops use. Overall, a great place for a break or small business meeting.

Excellent coffee and friendly service.
Potentially the cutest coffee shop Ive ever been to. I love the ambiance of this place. Cant beat the view of Pikes Peak. Best honey vanilla latte Ive ever had. Incredibly kind staff. Would highly recommend.
I got the half-sweet maple latte at the suggestion of the barista and it was SO GOOD. the maple syrup is made in house and was delicious. Great service and coffee.
Just tried this place and the coffee and food is very good. The barista was super friendly!
Roscos Coffee shop was the best coffee experience Ive had in the Springs. Quite, clean and the baristas were so sweet. For sure check them out!👌👌
Coffee is really good but perhaps little pricey
My daughter wanted to try here, so we popped in to give it a try. I had a kit Kat blender, which I really enjoyed. Everyone else enjoyed theirs as well, except my son, but he got a green tea thing & didnt care for the taste.
Worth the trip to find this gem. Cinnamon rolls on Friday.
A gorgeous and charming woman with a bear mask made me the best coffee Ive ever had with beautiful music playing in the background.
DO NOT give this place your email, they send an incredible amount of spam!!! I get 4-5 emails per week and cannot unsubscribe!!!
Coffee wasn’t very good and was expensive. Service could have been better. Will not return.
Loved it, great customer service !
Great coffee! Amazing service. Love to have them here in the neighborhood.
Legit my favorite coffee shop in town. i work in coffee, so that’s saying a lot! anyone who asks about other places i always mention roscos. it’s my favorite place that i go to almost every saturday haha! best coffee, baristas, and atmosphere.
Very nice, small, warm and cozy, coffees pretty good too.
Love the Halloween Menu and the breakfast burritos are so delicious!
I find Roscoes coffee shop a comfortable and nice place to go have coffee, while enjoying local artists works. They also have their own yummy baked goodies on the menu, as well. However, their prices are much too high, preventing seniors from being able to go there on any regular basis
A cute neighborhood coffee shop! There was only one person there the time I visited-not sure if thats how it usually is since Im not a local--but the barista was fabulous at being efficient to get everything the individuals before us ordered (food and drinks) then got to us quickly. I saw another couple behind us leave I imagine because it wasnt as quick as Starbucks but its totally worth it to buy coffee from these wonderful local shops even if they dont get to you right away.
What a great little neighborhood coffee House. The breakfast burritos are absolutely incredible. Even more so the green sauce that goes on....is to die for. what coffee year was great and all the people that work there were super cool. They knew we were from out of town and they very nice and helpful telling us where to go find good trails to hike and so on and so forth. We rented the house right down from the street from here, so we went there every morning.
Very nice very small coffee shop. Seating for about 15. The counter person was very nice and the egg and sausage was tasty.
Good coffee
Will go again, coffee fantastic bfast sandwich very good
Every Saturday I think at 7 there’s group of great runners who welcomes any age and any type of runners to run with them. They run their long run but you can choose your own distance. Very friendly people.
Great small neighborhood coffee shop. I love to come here on an occasion with friends to catch up.
I love places like this. Baristas that know how to make real drinks, not just the Starbucks clone creations. A great menu. Parking takes a min. to figure out, but it is easy enough. Great atmosphere that doesnt come across as portentous.
