Overview

About This Establishment

The Blueberry Lemon Scone hits with a crisp edge and a lemon kick that lifts the berry sweetness. The crumb is tender, the blueberries pop, and the aroma of butter is everywhere as you bite. The Green Chili Cheddar Scone adds a savory spark, while the Breakfast Burrito is a hearty morning major-league bite. Backdrop views of the San Juan Mountains mingle with the scent of freshly ground coffee—this place is all about fresh-baked texture and comforting warmth.
