Pneuma Coffee House

the girl working there seemed kinda down, like she might’ve been having an off day. there were other people there but for some church meeting, not for coffee. (yes, this place is connected to a church). there’s a lot of seating (couches and chairs). the view is nice and it’s in a quiet part of manitou, just near the town center. lots of parking available. i got a latte and a fritter. my mom got a pistachio latte and a maple pecan danish thing. took a while for the drinks to come out but it was only because she was the only one working. the roast for the latte tasted odd. it was strong but the flavor was…interesting. the fritter was dry, so i had to dip it in my latte. wasn’t too sweet too. i liked how the latte foam was smooth too, with great art on top. i tried my mom’s pistachio latte and it was quite sweet. definitely pistachio flavored.
the music at the shop was okay, and not too loud. they have a station for cream, stir sticks, and sugar packets as well. overall this place was pretty average. the total cost for all four item was 15 dollars.

Do not go, this place is a cult! We stopped in after finding this place on Google thinking it was a normal coffee shop, but it is on the campus of an evangelical megachurch whose openly armed security guards were staring us down while we were drinking our coffee. It was extremely off-putting and creepy to just be trying to drink coffee and enjoy the view while men with guns strapped to their belts kept looking over at us and whispering amongst themselves. When we tried to leave because the vibes were BAD, some power-tripping Karen patrolling the parking lot with a clipboard and a German Shepherd appeared to be writing down our license plate number or some other info about us. She stopped us as we were trying to leave and told us that we couldn't go out the way that we came, and when my husband tried to clarify with her how we could get out of the parking lot, she seemed to be deliberately confusing and made us feel trapped (we eventually were able to get out, but my goodness it was a profoundly uncomfortable and actually scary experience). It's absolutely pathetic that these people are so committed to their delusional persecuted victim complex that they intimidate casual visitors just trying to get coffee with weapons and guard dogs. That is not how Jesus taught us to act in the Gospel!

Fantastic.
Nice staff, clean atmosphere, music playing (but not blaring,) nice view, fair prices, and great coffee. 🙌 I'm not one to support Christian-only owned businesses by any means, but on the other hand, it feels great to give business to a company of faith. They don't jam religion down your throat here either, so if you're not religious this is still a great place to come. You'll may just notice a few signs regarding faith and a little bookstand. Pretty harmless.
I had a cinnamon maple oatmilk latte for $4 and some sort of cherry strudel for $3. The coffee was strong and the pastry was fresh. I look forward to giving this company more business.

This place was a really nice surprise! I was looking for a place with good coffee and great views. They nailed it! People were real friendly, seating inside is comfy and spacious. The outdoor patio is also very nice! I’ll be coming back!

Budget friendly, clean and casual/friendly place. Indoor and outdoor seating with a full view of Pikes Peak.

Barista was super sweet and made some bomb coffee drinks! They have awesome seasonal menus. It was a very inviting environment with incredible views of Garden of the Gods. It's a quiet spot for working or catching up with friends.

Very affordable and delicious coffee. Definitely a must to visit if you're in the area! They have a seasonal menu as well so definitely ask what those options are. There's also some cool merch and it's a chill place to study with a great view. Highly recommend.

Great staff and atmosphere. Lots of seating, and great options for coffee, tea, homemade sodas

I was really disappointed in the service and availability of food. They serve brats and were out of mustard, she said I was lucky cuz they just got lettuce in which was wilted. And I watched the cook eat her meal while slowly preparing mine. It took 20 minutes for her to prepare lettuce two slices of cucumber and two slices of tomato ( already cut) and a brat that was mediocre at best. This place has really gone down hill

We stumbled upon this AMAZING coffee shop two days before the end of our trip and the only issue is we wished we found it sooner!

The coffee was 100x better than Starbucks (and we're big espresso drinkers), the service was friendly and fast. Great space to enjoy a cup with a view. We had Frappes (coconut, hazelnut, and carmel) the first day, all were perfect- not too sweet.

We did hot lattes the next day , coconut and caramel. Couldn't pick a favorite between them!
