Hold Fast Coffee Co

Hold Fast Coffee Co. is a locally owned roastery and café just off Academy Boulevard in Colorado Springs. There are couches, work tables, a bar and a patio with string lights and mountain views. Wifi is strong, and there are plenty of outlets.

They roast five days a week, from floral Ethiopians to Indonesians, without defaulting to dark. Try the orange cardamom latte. Loose-leaf tea comes in a glass French press, and there's local beer and wine. Breakfast sandwiches are on Springs Bagel Co. bagels. The Croque Monsieur and Garden Sunrise are favorites. Order online before 8am for same-day local delivery.
