Lima Coffee Roasters - Campus West Coffee Shop — Restaurant in Fort Collins

In a world where selling out is the dream. Lima is the definition of that to me. When I first landed in Foco the place that was here prior (momos) let me and others work on thier internet for hours on whatever because it serves a community and they made money. This community, one that is based on students making it after keggers or pressure from family back home to not screw up. Teachers trying to keep up with work loads, young professionals taking a few minutes to prep memos, There's also a small pocket of people like me that serve differently, yet still need "that place" to keep my wits to be able to zone out and just focus on what important. That's what momos was(the space that is now limas). Somedays it was the charming staff that tolerated my antics, or days I was in the corner marketing or working on another move. They sold art from local artisans in the community not framed portraits of thier chains success. The place now has just the prettiest paneling walls that are bare and boring. There's this mid century look that I want to like but there's no soul. Nothing LOCAL to the area up showing acknowledgment of the humanity that funds that location. The culture of the people there is now absent. Colonized now by a chain shop that has bitter workers and the atmosphere vibe of an overdressed cafeteria. For shame, for shame deep. This was a place of creation, I showed my sons this place when I was getting on my feet. I met my apprentices here. I cried in the parking lot here. Now I can't even pour my own damn creamer. There are some amber cups I want to buy but that's it. The coffee is served at 5000° and no less. There's one cool dude there that's tatted that stops by my job, and there was a server that was nice to me once in the times I tried. There is no art on the walls, the acoustics are absolutely terrible there with all the paneling and zero to absorb sound. I work in the area and miss my place of refuge of what this space was. I'm sure, I'm taking this way too personal? Mabie...and ok. But at least someone will have said it. I avoid this place now because I don't feel welcome, the service is bland, the coffee is mid, and the one little of sliver of soul the college strip had has been bought and remade in to a coffee McDonald's that wants you to order and get out. If Noco made you then you owe noco. Pay and staff these folks enough so the mood isn't such garbage. Donate your wall space to local ANYTHING that will help anything. And for God's sake let me pour my...

“Love people, Love Coffee”

Coffee has always meant the world to me. But I have truly struggled to find a home that is both accommodating to my coffee fanaticism that also deeply understands and welcomes me as not only a customer but family. I can confidently say that this Lima is the refuge from which my desire for great coffee and community come together to form a beautiful river of love. Their drinks are genuinely amazing, the food is divinely made, and the music being played is like it’s a playlist for my soul. I am truly a changed man and feel incredibly inspired since coming to this Lima. I can’t wait to see the everlasting memories that are going to be made in this lovely place. Thank you Lima for the amazing work you...

Beautiful space—my son even called it “Momo Lima,” lol! I just want to share my thoughts: Honestly, I really missed Momo Lolo’s tea selection. For tea lovers, the options now are quite limited—I particularly miss the Happy Lucky’s selection that Momo Lolo used to offer. I suggest expanding the tea selection across all of Lima. Even though the place is beautiful, I’ll continue choosing spots that offer a variety of teas. Even if it’s farther from my house, I prefer working in places with good tea options. Tea lovers will appreciate it, as there are very few places in town offering good quality tea...
