Rumors Coffee and Tea House

If you do not want to spend time and too much money they have a very good self-service station on the left. $2.50 for a large coffee that is better than other places in town. Well stocked, cozy bookstore next door and outside seating. We go here often while in the area.

Editing to clarify date and time for the owner since I can’t post a reply (thank you for responding, I’m sorry that your business is being affected by lack of good workers /: )
We came in at 9am on Saturday 10/1. The hours are posted as 7am-6pm and the worker said the shop was closing already. She was short when taking our orders. She was the only worker, but there were only 3 customers in there so it’s not like she was overwhelmed/ busy. I was extra nice, but it didn’t make a difference. She threw together 2 bad drinks and moved on to the next customer. He said “I have a couple friends just parking to come in” and she replied “I don’t care. You’re the last one. We’re closing.”

I’d go down the road to Coffee Lab. There was also only one worker there (with a line out the door!!) but she was so kind and patient and made us amazing coffees.

My friends and I wanted good coffee at 5pm on Saturday, October 8. We looked up options on Google and were excited to see Rumors was still open per the hours listed. Part of our group had been there earlier in the day and enjoyed their drinks. When we arrived shortly after 5pm, the shop was closed although there was an open sign hanging outside. We were very disappointed.
We understand there is a staffing shortage; however it would be helpful to have it noted online that hours may vary.

really nice little coffee place in crested butte! we had the chai and the matcha latte, both iced & with oatmilk! both were fabulous and we even came back the next day for more!! :)

The coffee shop and book store were so cute, but hands down some of the rudest people I have ever ran across, their customer service was awful and the coffee wasn't good either. I will never come back here, very disappointing, especially when it's your first time to Crested Butte.

Nice coffee and bookstore, however a very strong LGBT bias including handouts for free pro LGBT books to children. Very narrow minded self help and spiritually sections that seemed almost at a propaganda level. Didn't enjoy the lack of spectrum of ideas.

I visited Rumors Coffee for the first time yesterday. The poor barista was slammed! This was late morning this Sunday. But she smiled constantly and was as friendly as a Lab at a Sunday picnic when it was my turn to order. I don't know her name but she deserves a lot of kindness back at her. Great service and wonderful place. It's connected to a book store and has tables to sit and relax. And if that's not enough... the coffee was darn good. I'll be back!

Book store + coffee shop combos are THE BEST! Grateful for the banging chai latte I got and the ability to read my book for two hours here without feeling like I needed to move for laptop users.

Best coffee in town! I'd been looking for a good oat flat white like you get in the UK for a while and Rumors' small latte is pretty much it, just a little less strong (which I liked). So good I bought a bag. All the baristas are super friendly and the shop is really cute - a good place for buying gifts. Try the grapefruit agave Crested Bucha while you're there too. A little pricey but worth it!

Cute place with WiFi an a nice patio. Service was ok, and stuff was a little overpriced.
