50 Best Coffee Shops in Boise

“I go every Sunday and the staff is amazing. The boba is wonderful and what's great. is that a lot of the drinks that contain milk? you can substitute it without milk and use a alternative milk such as coconut or soy or almond milk. The boba itself is very soft, but my favorite is the crystal boa. it has a texture like aloe. Every time I come in I'm always read it with a smile and catch up with them from the past week. sometimes I'll have them pick out their favorite drink for me to try and everything on the milk. tea is a wonderful. The taro. they make it in house. my personal favorite is the winter melon with half sweetness the mochi waffle is to die for. I love the matcha one and get that every Sunday as well“

“Sunshine Spice Bakery & Cafe is always a wow factor, and where I often take out of town visitors for something fun, delicious, and unique. The pastries are always exquisite. The dumplings you'll crave until your next visit. The coffee is good, and they offer unique flavors like ube and saffron options.“

“Really great locally roasted coffee and breakfast sandwiches!“

“Very polite and understanding staff, even when you accidentally try to pay with your costco ID. I would recommend ordering in and having an artistic latte while you take in the shop. This is a great place to meet friends, go on a first date, do homework, or be solitary and read a book.

Vegetarian options: Mainly parties, one or two breakfast sandwiches.

Dietary restrictions: They offer milk alternatives and gluten-free pastries (I have never had these, so I can not speak to the tastel

Parking: This is the middle of downtown Boise, so parking is difficult during the week, but it is very walkable/bikeable if you are somewhere downtown

Wheelchair accessibility: The building follows ADA regulations, but the floor layout does not allow ease of accessibility during peak times. This is probably the only negativity I have about this location“

“Best coffee shop in Idaho! My husband and I go at least once a week. The Baristas and the owner are far superior to any other coffee shop around. We love to go here for the full experience…great coffee, amazing pastries, and excellent customer service. You will quickly become a regular like us if you give them a try. 💕“

“What a chill atmosphere, so warm and inviting. coffee was well worth the wait, and it really wasn't long. The pastries looked amazing, can't wait to go back!“

“I don’t know where to start! The decor was very unique and welcoming! We had beignets and 3 different breakfast choices! OMG! SO GOOD! Muddled basil lemonade and roasted strawberry lemonade with fermented honey! The food looked so good we failed to take pictures! Presentation matched the pics on the website! This little gem has not been discovered yet!“

“Amazing automsphere and great people. I just got back from vacation and wanted coffee for the ride home, the place was having issues with their computer but the lady was taking care of everyone and keeping it going nice and smooth while being calm and collected. she didnt turn anyone away and took care of everyone with a smile on her face. I assisted another man to get the computer going just because how nice she was. the great coffee, great atmosphere and everything in-between is going to make me come back“

“Coffee and breakfast bagels were awesome and calming! Friendly staffs! Recommend going!“

“Great coffee and vibe, but I would skip the food. I had the breakfast sandwich and the flavor was pretty good, but it was all an off putting texture (soft and mushy).

Again, great coffee and vibe. Just get food somewhere else :)“

“Waffle me up was scrumptious, the workers were so kind and made the plates look so pretty! I would highly recommend, I cleared my plate in 9 mins😋“

“I walk 4 miles everyday to get here. Been coming here for great coffee and food for 130 straight days. Better than the food and the coffee are the great employees and the owners…every person that works here are all great people and my friends. They treat me like family and I’m so blessed to be able to come here everyday. Luv you all. Brian“

“Great coffee, great choices, seasonal changes in choices as well, average pricing, not much atmosphere...just a pull through Cafe window. Always a friendly and helpful staff!!!

Kid-friendliness: A few things, mostly an older persons menu, maybe teen and up.

Wheelchair accessibility: Drive through.“

“My husband and I stopped by over the weekend before heading to the Cirque and this coffee was such a welcome surprise. Not to be dramatic or anything but this place has the best drip coffee I’ve ever had. We talked about it our entire trip and will be ordering after we get home. Great hidden Wyoming gem - keep it up!!“

“Fantastic local business! Really cool idea for a bike/coffee shop. I was having trouble with an ebike I bought directly from the manufacturer; I needed a part that was damaged during the replacement of another part and after two weeks of trying to just get a response out of the manufacturer (A US company btw) I gave up and checked this place out in the off chance they'd have this very proprietary part for a bike that has since been discontinued. They didn't have the replacement part, BUT they were able to fix the existing part and give me some very helpful tips in the future. And they didn't even mock me for the stupid way I damaged the part (which I halfway expected), not to my face at least :). They were very friendly and super helpful. I'll be replacing this POS ebike I've got now and Bikes and Beans will absolutely be the place I buy the replacement, and probably that new mountain bike I've had my eyes on.“

“amazing coffee & food 🩷.“

“Came here last summer with my girlfriends and gave it another try today, and was once again pleasantly surprised with how good the coffee is. Would highly recommend getting the americano here, it is DELICIOUS! The atmosphere is just lovely and the staff are always so friendly.

Dietary restrictions: I saw that they had gluten free options and a variety of milk options as well! Love that this coffee shop offers this and accommodates:)“

“We love this place! The coffee & food are both delicious & the staff is always terrific. Plus, we dig the deck seating outside. Thank you, Java!“

“I LOVE this store! All the baristas are just amazing, but Mikayla is extra amazing. I’m mega picky about my quad mochas, sort of a coffee snob, and she flat out nails it every time. When I hit the lottery and get a full time barista of my very own, it will 100% be her…. :-)“

“Best cup of coffee available in Boise Idaho!!! Black, blended, doesn't matter the do all of it well. They roast their beans perfectly, not burnt like other places. You can enjoy the taste of the coffee, with a hint of your favorite flavorings. My favorite: 6 shot Latte with SF Butter Rum, Heavy cream.“

“Amazing donuts!! The best I’ve had.“

“Overall, a nice coffee shop!

The atmosphere and the staff were so friendly. There are several tables and a couch to sit and enjoy your coffee.

My particular cup of coffee was good, but not great. I had a pour over, which I did appreciate as a choice!

I’d certainly come back for the atmosphere, the coffee shop has definite good vibes.“

“Nice friendly people plus good coffee!“

“Nice atmosphere, friendly staff and delish coffee.“

“Coffee was great and nice patio area ❤️“

“I’m going to head to Madeline and Bailey these two kids sister coffee crushers nailed it when I needed a blended drink and something called “the kicker “this place offer is very quick drive-through service. They even have a walk up area with seating where no smoking is of course the requirement I have to say the flavor of the kicker it was incredible but they told me if you really needed to wake up… Then I must try what’s called “the 911 “… Since I am middle aged the idea of drinking, a heart attack wasn’t quite appealing, but I will be coming back to try that out during my visit to Boise the city of my birth. The flavor was incredible again I just have to hand it to those girlsThey know what they were doing and they had everything done in less than two minutes what a nice shot or a double shot!“

“I was told the biscuits and gravy is amazing. Unfortunately they were out. The bagel and lox was amazing instead!! Will definitely be going back.“

“I love this location. It’s one of the only stands that i go to that is 100% consistent with my drink every single time. Maybe this can get pushed along to corporate but it would be super cool if there was a healthier option for kids drinks.. I would come by a lot more but I like to get my kids a drink, and a kids smoothie with 40-60 grams of sugar is just crazy… so we avoid doing it regularly, years ago there was at least the option for apple juice! (She doesn’t drink milk, dairy or non dairy) Just a thought for consideration!“

“Thanks Mocha Moose for taking the chill off after a morning of xc skiing 👍“

“First time in. Definitely not that last.“

“My favorite coffee. I'm addicted. love the snowy & the customer service.“

“Beautiful little coffee shop by design, and GREAT coffee. I’ve been working right here on the road and stopped in for a warm cup of the barista’s choice and honestly it’s the best coffee I’ve had in a long time. Highly recommend you swing in“

“I love coming here when I need a boost during a hard day at work. I also come here for the atmosphere and the coffee, but I also very much appreciate how professional and friendly the staff is. Stop by if you’re looking for a quick, affordable, hand-made coffee!“

“amazing coffee & food 🩷.“

“This is an awesome spot to grab breakfast. The food is very tasty and the portions are hugh!! The service is amazing. Our server Olivia was very attentive and made us feel welcome from the second we walked in the door. We will definitely be back!“

“Nestled in a high-end living community, offers a cozy and inviting atmosphere. Their coffee was good, and they also serve a variety of breakfast options. I enjoyed their everything burrito. While it's a bit out of the way, it's worth a visit for a relaxing cup of coffee and a tasty bite to eat.“

“Yummy!...Baristas are all so nice 🙂“

“My friend and I went to Starbucks pick up a coffee I got a small one and she got a medium one and I'm not going to tell you what kind but we were both sick for the rest of the day on the toilet I don't think we'll be going back?“

“Fantastic service, super nice and friendly, made a great hot Chai Tea on a cool fall Boise afternoon. There were two baristas and both were genuinely friendly and plant to talk with. Will definitely be back!“

“This is a nice spot to sit for coffee and a dessert or lunch. They had vegan milk options for their coffee drinks. There's a lot of seating and it has great natural light from the big windows. The coffee was delicious and the pie even more so! I didn't notice many options for people with dietary restrictions in case that is a concern. But otherwise it's worth a visit!“
