I love the Black Bear Coffee and Tea Lodge. Such great coffee, food and wait service. The staff is friendly and very helpful. Its nice to not have to deal with the craziness of Starbucks. And their products are so much better anyway. I was having a bad day and the lady at the counter was so nice to me and afterwards my day didnt seem so bad anymore. There is even an area to sit outside on nice days. There is internet access to which is helpful for me since I work everwhere I go. I suggest that if you like coffee try this place out its awesome. Thanks Black Bear Coffee and Tea for everything you do.

Do yourself a favor and go to dutch bros! I tried to ask what she recommended for an iced coffee and she said some marshmallow carmel latte. I stated that i didnt want a latte and she said we can do an iced coffee so i said ok. I didnt realize i was getting a plain ice coffee with nothing in it. So i waited at the counter with my coffee while they took care of quite a long line and nobody acknowledged me at all. Then i got back in line and got to the front and told her i didnt mean to order a plain coffee and had to pay 2.70 more to add espresso and caramel and its still the worst coffee ever.

The coffee is fantastic, the staff is good, but theres no wifi! In this day and age theres no excuse for a coffee shop to not have wifi, and if they paid the ~$200/month it would cost for free, unsubsidized wifi it would be a competitive advantage over the myriad Starbucks in the city. As it is, I have to bring business contacts to Starbucks just for the (albeit paid) wifi, which is a shame, as I would love to show them that Colorado Springs really does have at least one good coffee house.

The only reason im giving this place two stars is the place is really cool and nice to hang out, but thats it. The first time I went my white chocolate mocha was undrinkable, it was disgusting. This time I got their cookies and cream special drink that was suppose to be like a shake... But it was super watery and not thick at all. Waste of money I wont be coming back.

Ive visited many of the local coffee shops in the area and i have been the least impressed with Black Bear. The staff is rude and uninviting. They have plenty of space but if you want to study, good luck with internet because the wifi hardly ever works. They have a nice selection of food/drinks but the lack of quality staff and internet ruins an otherwise nice place.

I have been coming here since my High School days and thats been fourteen years except when they were gone for a short time. As if that doesnt testify how great the drinks, food and atmosphere are, then just receive the smiles and hospitality of the staff! I love Black Bear Coffee and Tea Lodge, and the whole neighborhood are rejoicing they are back!!!

Just left Black Bear with my usual $7 (with tip) caramel white mocha, and I thought it felt a little light. Opened it up, and its literally 2/3 full! Wtf?? I wont be coming back here anymore thats for sure. Every barista makes it different so I try to tell them exactly how I like it, but never mind. I will find a better coffee shop to go to. Furious.

This place was great! I stopped in while on a job and got a medium dark roast. Definitely woke me up and was about $2.75. The reason it lost a star is that theyre receipt printer apparently stopped working, so the barista wrote the date and charge on a blank piece of receipt paper and had me sign it, which seemed a little sketchy to me...

This is definitely not the place for breakfast. Coffee is good and there is a lot of sweet stuff, but for basic breakfast food, go elsewhere. It isnt here. I ordered oatmeal and it was a package that you poured water into!. No eggs of any kind. No potatoes. Boo hoo.

Service. I was very disappointed. Charge was quite a bit more than expected. Not only were we charged for the cups we bought with their logo but also to put coffee in it for the first time. Our entire order was wrong. And we were treated very poorly by the staff.

Stopped in this morning for a refresher on my coffee. It was only 7:00 and I was already having a crazy day of work nonsense. Janice (I think) was super friendly and said I should "keep smiling". Thanks for the great cup of Joe and enthusiasm.

This place is awesome! I stop here a lot before work, the staff is great- always smiling and it definitely starts off the morning on the right foot. I usually get an iced mocha, but their blended drinks are tasty too.

Friendly staff, but I just had a terrible latte - all foam. I have given a few of their drinks a try and Im just disappointed on a regular basis. The only reason we go there is because of the location.

I like the staff and the speedy service I dislike the aroma from the morning joggers at times it can get quite strong however that is something that can be fixed with better ventilation

After reading the preceding review, I was disappointed but decided to call the coffee shop and see if that status had changed. Indeed, it has! Now, great coffee and wifi.

Unique coffee creations, delicious chorizo breakfast burrito. Probably the nicest staff of any local coffee shop. Very cozy and mountain Lodge feel with a lounge area.

The best coffee in Colorado Springs! The people here actually make an effort to remember your name and your usual drink and are always pleasant.

Consistently bad customer service. Rude and an attitude like theyre above serving us. Tired of feeling talked down to just for a cup of coffee.

The girl that served us was great. The Chia tea was just okay. Too much cinnamon for my taste. Surprisingly the chorizo burrito was amazing.

Second time here but the barista acted like I was such an inconvenience to her. This place could do better especially with the service.
