Maybe trendy, but the claim for their espresso on the website is vastly overstated. Weak, poorly extracted and flavourless. Indifferent service didn't help!
We came back twice because it was so good! Definitely recommend the White Tiger! The food was very good and service was excellent. Next time we come back to the area, Jives is on our list to visit again!
Visited twice during our visit. Outstanding service, local atmosphere. Good coffee and tea. Excellent pastries and food. Fun decor. Staff/owner friendly and welcoming.
Jives has amazing coffee and food, but what is even more impressive is the leadership of this company. The owners are frequently walking around, asking people how they are, joking, making sure customers are happy, etc. One of the owners has 10 kids! I only know this because I went to college with one of the "kids," and I can honestly say: what an amazing family. I will always support local, hard-working, family businesses, and Jives is the epitome of all of that. The other co-owner (I believe) is always friendly, always hustling, and is frequently seen riding his bike to work. These families lead by example and that's rare to see these days.The Mama Mia sandwich is always delicious and fresh. A good and unique drink to try is the spicy mocha, with extra cayenne pepper. ?
Great Capuccinos!!
Such an adorable coffee shop! Decided to stop here while I was in Colorado Springs and was not disappointed. The shop itself has indoor and outdoor seating, and a bookshelf with books that are free for you to look through while you sip on your coffee. They also have a small stand in the corner with musical instruments- where I assume a band plays every once in a while. As far as service goes, the employees were polite and my food and drink came out super fast. I ordered an iced “Black Sea”. Super yummy! It was the perfect sweetness and full of flavor. And for food, I ordered a Turkey Provolone Croissant which I definitely recommend. It came with chips and some dip. My meal totaled about $15 with drink and food. Definitely recommend stopping here (-:
The best food and service. Owner was lovely and quite accommodating. Recommend for anyone in Colorado City. This place will not disappoint you.
This is the second time I’ve visited Jives but the first time I ordered food and was NOT disappointed! I ordered the veggie stack sandwich which was so much food I actually had leftovers. The location is perfect! Permanent sting lights are outside the shop and across the way is a park. It doesn’t get much bette than that! Highly recommend! The family who runs the shop is also so charismatic and enjoyable to talk to.
Wish I took photos of everything I ordered but it was so good I ate it before I could take a photo, but this place is great, the other shops around really have competition. The owner was really nice and gave us a free desert :) thanks! This is my new favorite coffee shop!
My friends and I went to this coffee shop before we headed on our hike and it was the perfect start to our day. The Christmas decorations were amazing!
