Brown Dog Coffee Company

I must have been at this coffee shop on an off day based on other reviews. Visiting from out of town, I ordered two Americanos, a quiche, and a veggie burrito to go. The coffee was so weak you could barely taste coffee, quiche was too salty to eat, "veggie" burrito was comprised of eggs, beans, and cheese. I wish I could have gotten my money back but it was too late since I was taking it on the road...total waste.

Seldom leave reviews, but we had a bad experience this morning. The Americano coffee was very weak. The quiche incredibly salty, and the vegitarian burrito had eggs in it. This was a takeout order, so we were not able to get it corrected.

I always love finding a great little coffee shop. I've been a barista for 11 years now and this shop totally inspired me. Not only was my latte pretty good (foam wasn't latte art quality but the espresso was great) and the burrito I ordered was SPECTACULAR! Made in house and cooked to perfection. I'll be glad to stop in Salida for a cup of joe and a burrito again. I highly recommend Brown Dog Coffee!

Went to Colorado for my honeymoon, stopped and grabbed a cup of coffee. I order it every 2 months. Best coffee I've had so far. Love it.

The brown dog blend is my favorite so far.

We love the one in Buena Vista. Always make it a point to stop at when we are in either town. This morning though the girl behind the counter was incredibly rude. Won’t be frequenting the Salida location anymore.

Great little shop right in downtown Salida! It can be a bit busy, but this just means it’s great because everyone wants to stop by! Coffee is fresh and hot and the decor is lovely. Will be back :)

Cute shop, good drip coffee. I'm not a fan of the way they make their special drinks because they are incredibly sugary. My boyfriend loves the syrup though, so he really likes this place.

Cozy coffee shop. Didn’t eat anything but the coffee was good. Only problem is the two girls who were working were more interested in talking amongst themselves than paying attention to the customer. Asked for more half and half and it took longer than it needed to due to the gossip going on.

We've been to BD in Salida several times over the past couple of years and the management really needs to train the baristas basic customer service skills.
I understand service is difficult work, I understand that they are in a busy store... smiling and saying hello is entry level customer service.
The staff gives the impression that the customer is an intrusion.
Coffee is fine.

I'm a local and a regular at Brown Dog Coffee, it is the only coffee shop I go to in Salida. But this morning when I went in to get my 20 oz spiced chai half of it was literally filled with only foam. I wasn't pleased. I'll definitely be back but I hope my experience doesn't continue to be like this, I'd like to get what i pay for.
