Cuchara's Higher Ground Coffee Bar

Wonderful mountain atmosphere, super friendly service, and the best coffee & breakfast burritos around. My wife and I enjoyed sitting inside by the fire on a chilly mountain morning while sipping on an excellent cup of coffee (my wife said her latte was made to perfection). Definitely worth a trip to Cuchara to enjoy this gem.

Worth the 10 minute drive from Cuchara Village. Coffee is really good, the Amish Fry Pies are delicious and the staff was very friendly. Such a great addition for Cuchara. They did have WiFi, cozy seating area with couches and tables and a First Responder/military discount.

Texas Mike cooked a smothered Breakfast Burrito that was delicious... We split it, good Black Rifle Coffee.
Be careful if you go out on the deck and close your eyes more than a minute or two, you will most likely take an early nap. Babbling Brooke will soothe, the soul for sure.
Must stop on 12 about 2.5 miles outside of Cuchara.

This place is run by a local volunteer fireman and since I am one as well I will always stop by here. That said I would still stop here. Coffee is great! Smoothies are great! He also serves breakfast and lunch. Not alot on the food menu but that just means what he does have is that much better. Stop in, get yourself some great coffee and please tell this guy thanks for his volunteer work.

Great atmosphere, friendly people. Food was great, coffee even better!! Highly recommend!!

Amazing place! The inside of this coffee shop is beautifully done, and what a view. They have delicious Americano coffee which we definitely went back for several times. We had lunch there and ordered the chicken salad sandwiches with potato salad, and it was very good. Highly recommend!!!

Beautifully remodeled buikding with an outdoor patio overlooking the Cuchara river! Mike is very friendly and welcoming, answering all our questions with patience. He created my Latte and it was delicious. My friend had a luscious hotdog. We stopped in after a hike. They close at 3pm, Monday-Saturday.

A “Must Stop” if you are passing through! Beautiful surroundings, great owner and the best coffee for 100 miles or more. We took some great pictures inside and on their little bridge.

Great breakfast/coffee shop in a gorgeous setting. Everything was perfect and prepared especially for us, by Mike. If you are in the Cuchara Valley, make certain to visit.

They have great coffee's and smoothies. Fresh breakfast burritos, muffins and fried pies. One there pies are too die for. If your in Cuchara this is a great place to stop.
