Food Scene

It is a cozy atmosphere with friendly staff! We have even baked and sold pies to this locally owned family business. The owners are precious people. It has a lovely view of Pike's Peak and you can walk the main strip of Woodland Park from here. They have yummy breakfast burritos and a few interesting and tasty sandwiches, as well as the BEST tasting coffee (roasted in house). This Cafe is next door to a local doughnut shop, too.
