Solid Grounds Coffee Roasters — Restaurant in Woodland Park

Incredible atmosphere, abnormal coffee, amazing pastries, and heartwarming experience!!

The moment you walk in, you’re hit with an amazing atmosphere. The design immediately transports you into a cozy, American-style coffeehouse.

It’s a family-run business that bakes their own pastries – and let me tell you, they are incredible. I had the hazelnut muffin, and I really enjoyed it.

Their coffee selection is impressive, both with the interesting mixtures they had and the variety of specialty beans they use – including some sourced all the way from Ethiopia.

You can truly feel the family touch in every corner of the place. It feels like home – even complete with a comfy couch area and newspapers to read while you sip your drink.

I even had a great chat with the owner about a powerful program they support called Rifles 2 Reins, which helps veterans transition to civilian life through working with horses.

I had an amazing experience both with the place and the people. If I get the chance, I’ll absolutely be back to try more of their pastries and coffee in that...

Unassuming from the exterior this small log cabin style coffee shop gets more charming every step you take past the threshold. Small tables perfect for enjoying a good book while you sit or a comfy sofa and arm chairs “living room” if you decide to sip with friends. A sign “The world needs who you were meant to be” graces the rafters- a good reminder for us all. Even the bathroom with excerpts from The Boy, The. mole The Fox and The Horse give you all the feels. I got the Bonfire which was brown sugar and cinnamon. I got it half sweet with an extra shot and that was perfect. The kids enjoyed the hot chocolate and the giant chocolate chip cookies 🍪 are yummy. On top of that they were playing perfect jazz which made me wish we didn’t have to move on down the road so quickly. If I lived closer I’d frequent this spot for sure with a good book an and a journal. Happy sipping friends. And remember “This world needs who you were...

I've been getting coffee here for awhile and I've always very much liked it, especially the Butter beer flavor. For the first time yesterday I tried their food and it did not disappoint. The breakfast burrito was delicious and I had to try their coffee cake. This was the most unique and flavorful coffee cake I've ever had. It has your typical ingredients that you would expect from an average coffee cake but it also has the flavor of COFFEE. It's just to die for, I tell you! Absolutely delicious!!

The picture does show it half eaten, sorry I didn't take a pic before diving in! 😂

Edit to add - I'm of the belief that anyone who would rate this cafe less than a four star just has a personal grudge for...
