Best WLM Reviews
I needed a pick me up on the way down from a wedding in the mountains, and we stopped into Windy Saddle Cafe. over Labor Day weekend(!) and they were packed- both inside and outside. The line moved quickly and the staff were incredibly kind and helpful. There were people of all ages and walks of life, lots of laughter and it looked like the kind of place where everyone is welcome. I tasted my first sip and was overjoyed when I found out that they were serving my favorite espresso EVER by Kaladi Coffee. If I lived close by I would go there every day. They have dairy and gluten free food options, a play area for kids, adorbs store merch and a cute little library. Not to mention the perfect location to take a picture under the Golden arch and it's a block away from the creek. I'll stop by again and take better pictures and get more of that yummy coffee again soon!
The best strawberry chocolate cheesecake I ever had, coupled with one of the best lattes ever - one can’t ask for more than this to be happy :)
BTW, the service was prompt and courteous..
The Windy Saddle Cafe is one of the best cafes in Golden. I’m a burrito person so I got the breakfast burrito and I was happy to know that they actually crack their eggs and not use an egg substitute from a bag. Would definitely recommend
I hate to leave a bad review but I’ve never had a good experience at this place with drinks only. A couple of years ago we ordered drip coffees around 12:30PM and they were completely cold and the staff had retreated to the kitchen. I’ve tried this place out two separate times since then and the wait time has been horrendous for a coffee shop, the matcha latte was bad, and staff was far from welcoming. Lesson learned this final time. Their food might be fine (I’ve never had it), but their drinks and service leave a lot to be desired.
I ordered a chicken salad croissant and beet salad. The croissant sandwich was ok. The beet salad I couldn’t finish because it was mostly apples and raisins and was not what I was expecting. For my girls I ordered the grilled cheese. The grilled cheese was made with stale bread and the cheese wasn’t melted. It was so hard they struggled to bite into it. That also couldn’t be finished. Overall pretty disappointed.
Cute place! More of a full service coffee shop then a restaurant. We enjoyed the oat milk latte we got (the espresso was nice, however served more like a cappuccino then a latte). Burrito was good for $8! We didn’t pay extra for the sauce on the outside. My husband really loved the meat croissant sandwich. The baked goods looked delicious although we didn’t partake. Many GF options.
A favorite spot whenever I visit Golden. Good coffee and tasty sandwiches with gluten free bread options. Staff are always friendly and attentive. Last time I visited two staffers stopped by my table to make sure the gluten free sandwich I ordered was made correctly. The only thing that was disappointing was the limited 1 hour WI-FI access. I understand why they do it especially at busy times but not good for folks like me who try to get work done whenever they stop by here. Overall a good place for food and drinks and I always stop by when I have the time after some fly fishing on the creek!
Nice cafe in downtown Golden! They're always pretty busy with a line but they make it through the line pretty quick. Food takes a little while to come out (about 15-20min), but it's always freshly made and hot (if you get a hot sandwich). We've gotten to-go for lunch several times and everything has been good! We've tried the meat burrito for breakfast, as well as the Hi-Ho tuna sandwich, Thunderbird sandwich, the Jamaican jerk wrap(pretty spicy!), the amitola wrap, round-up wrap, and The Drifter and Clear Creek caprese sandwich, which are two of our favorites. Service is usually friendly enough and the food has been consistently good each visit. The Golden Miel latte is a favorite and the spicy chai and hot chocolate are also good! Good quality, fair pricing, I’d recommend a stop by!
