Hermosa Cafe

It was great to pop in here. It's bustling with conversation and you see a great mixture of regulars and people passing through. The coffee is great and the staff is kind and helpful. One batista explained that their lavender syrup is made in house and that is probably why their honey lavender latte tastes a bit better than most coffee spots. Bonus points for a great waffle

On a tip from Melanie, at the Durango Downtown Ambassador kiosk, we visited Hermosa Cafe for a coffee & snack. The food options in the cooler were pretty well picked through so we went with a Roasted Veggie sandwich. Coffee’s were tasty, and certainly on the stronger side. Staff was friendly. The neighboring shop had live music playing outside and he was AWESOME; very mellow and talented. It was the cherry on top of our morning here in Durango. Sadly, we are posting a one star deduction as the staff somehow forgot to make our sandwich and after 20 minutes we went in to check on it. About 10 minutes later it came out. We weren’t in a hurry so it wasn’t a big deal. All in all good visit.

I’ve been here several times while visiting Durango and they always mess my order up. Last time I went the owner gave my food to some else because they were complaining. It took another 25 mins to get my order after that. Then they gave me the wrong drink. The owner was super rude about it all. She acted like I should just be happy with the horrible service. I was unhappy and asked for a refund on my order so I could just leave. She ‘couldn’t figure out’ how to refund my order so she gave me a $3 biscotti to make up for my $17 order. By the way it was my birthday. Ruined the whole morning. Never again.
