Rico's Cafe & Wine Bar

Rico’s Café is a great place to have coffee/tea and just relax. Not only is it a coffee shop, they have a wide selection of greeting cards and gifts to choose from. The tea and coffee selection is very large, this is a great place to relax, study and shop for small gifts.

Great live music and the person at register was super friendly. Not much space to sit but it was a very busy night so it was understandable most seats were taken.

Great coffee shop downtown that is part of the Poor Richard's complex. Nice chill atmosphere and good drinks.

I'm pretty saddened by my first visit back after Rico's closed last year. The only place I really wanted back was RICO'S! But guess what - a giant sign on the front door that "MASKS ARE REQUIRED FOR EVERYONE due to the delta variant" shows that they aren't like everywhere else in Colorado Springs. They might be THE ONLY PLACE IN COLORADO SPRINGS FOR DINING THAT REQUIRES MASKS FOR EVERYONE. Bummer. They were completely empty tonight. Gluten free options limited to only the macaroons. I am gluten free and also need food, not just cookies. Their wi-fi on the patio wasn't up to par, so I had to come inside. Not the Rico's I used to know. Won't be back.

Great spot to grab a coffee or glass of wine. Bonus that you can also order lunch/dinner items from their attached sister restaurant. As well as shop for cards, books, gifts, etc from the attached stores.

After a long day of adventuring we decided to end our ToUsDay with Coffee and dessert, which led us to Rico’s. We both had the maple hazelnut latte and oh my goodness it was amazing. Not overly sweet. Just right!!! The baristas were friendly, the atmosphere was fun and comfortable. I’d definitely recommend this place!!!

Loose leaf tea, sipping chocolate, coffee, or wine with a light meal or pastry sound good? Then this place is *perfect* to go to for it. Laid back stmosphere. Affordable menu prices. Staff is really chill. Oh and the bathroom is unisex.

Yummy pizza and live entertainment!

Amazing service. All the staff are very helpful with menu choices. Great atmosphere with music playing at a reasonable volume. They also have live music during the evenings.

A fine selection of healthy food choices(regular diet, gluten free, and vegetarian and vegan), and great drink selections(including wine, beer, coffee, sodas, and hot and cold teas).

It comes with the best of bonuses - a connection to 3 other businesses - Poor Richard's (books both new and used and other small items), Little Richard's (a toy and game store for kids of all ages), and Poor Richard's Restaurant (pizza!)

Best place in Colorado Springs!

Great little place to have a cold beer (or glass of wine). Service is always good and food menu is an eclectic mixture of healthier items. There's a nice outdoor patio area around back for those warmer days of spring, summer and fall. Waitstaff is always very helpful and kind.

They have monthly $2.50 beer specials which are a great value and they have a bottomless coffee menu item for $2 that you just can't get anywhere else.

This is primarily patronized by locals and is definitely a hidden gem for those just passing through.
