The Perk | Cafe and Roastery

Absolutely loved this place! The coffee is the best in the valley that I’ve tried so far and the baristas are super engaging and friendly…. The atmosphere was slightly off but that’s only because a customer (who left a distasteful review) was making things uncomfortable by acting like an entitled brat while waiting for his coffee during a rush. Other than that, this place is absolutely wonderful.

This place is great. It's a local coffee shop that makes really good coffee and they have really good pastries and small bite type food items. We will definitely come back the next time we are in winter park.

This place is awesome! The baristas are incredible. Best cappuccino in the valley by far. You won’t regret getting coffee from this *woman owned* shop!

Nice café in/a part of an outdoor clothing store.

Solid drinks, vegan options, friendly service.

This coffee shop is the greatest! The baristas are very personable and kind! I see that there is so much care put into each cup of coffee, you won't find a better cup anywhere else! The owner is also very kind and considerate to everyone! the atmosphere is welcoming and comfortable. I highly recommend the Perk to anyone visiting Fraser!

10/10 specialty coffee. Winston and Matt are the best—both kind and skilled in all the coffee making. Great spot to grab a to go or hang out on the couches or tables. Not a huge spot as it shares with a retail spot but certainly cozy!

Do you ever wanna dream of a world were kindness and peace are accompanied by the sound of laughter and the smell of coffee? Then this coffee shop is where you belong! A place were passion and pleasing tastes coexist. If love and joy make you happy then this is your place. The coffee always hot (unless ya want it cold) and the vibes are always chill.
If you are looking for unfriendliness and animosity then this is NOT your place.
This whimsical, outdoors thriving, graciously loving, and really just badass owner named Ellie has really set up a place for these things to continue to thrive.
Just be careful or you might just become a regular!

This place is like a second home! The coffee is amazing, staff is like an family and the owner does an amazing job running it. Keep crushing it Ellie!

Best coffee in WP. In-house roaster so you’re always getting fresh beans. Great drip, lattes, and burrito.

They share space with The Trailhead so it’s a bit tight though they’ve done a great job adding desks if you need pull your computer out and get some work done.

Great quality coffee/menu, awesome service, friendly staff & super cute interior/exterior decor, nestled in Winter Park... we enjoyed delicious cortados while relaxing on the patio deck overlooking the mountains. This was a coffee lovers dream before heading for a long days hike. Thank you guys for doing coffee right!

The best of the best!! Coffee, burritos, pastries, kombucha, hospitality, kindness, relatability, a good laugh- alllll 10/10!!! This local and woman owned coffee shop is a MUST when living or visiting winter park. The staff is kind and friendly, and always makes a drink that brightens my day. Get yourself a coffee at the Perk ASAP!

Good coffee and terrific atmosphere! If you need a place to get a few hours of work done while enjoying a cup or two of coffee I can’t think of a better one in Winter Park.

We were in the area for approx 6 days and went there at least 3 times. Great coffees!

This is the best coffee I've had along Hwy 40, and I believe they could compete well with roasters in any major city. Very smooth and enjoyable flavor. Not overwhelmingly sweet on the mixed drinks. I've stopped by several times now and the service is always friendly. It's a treat to find places like this in small mountain towns, and I'll happily keep coming back.

Also includes a great clothing shop for skiing, hiking, and camping.

A place to be loved. From the pull of the handle and first step in the door to a wave goodbye as I leave. The hospitality from Ellie and her team makes the delicious coffee, cinny rolls, and kombucha secondary to the way being in the perk makes me feel.

Love the Perk!

I absolutely LOVE [The Perk] in Winter Park, Colorado; great service & great coffee!!

Love this place! Cinnamon roll latte tastes just like a cinnamon roll. Also enjoy “The Shed.” The staff are always extremely friendly, and great atmosphere.

amazing coffee, cozy atmosphere and easy to get some work done.

home away from home :) genuine staff and delicious drinks - can’t go wrong with this sweet store full of joy and great taste in music!
