Joe, java, mud…whatever you call your cuppa, coffee gets us going in the morning and keeps us buzzing throughout day. Some grab a strong black coffee on the way to the ski slopes or trailheads; others sip on a mid-morning espresso in between meetings; and many savor a decadent matcha on a weekend.
The Vail Valley has no shortage of coffee (and tea) shops and our team definitely has their own rituals and favorites. Here’s where they go on the way to the office to get their caffeine buzz or linger over a latte on their days off.

"One of my favorite spots in Avon is Loaded Joe's. They have some of the best coffee in town, and it’s one of those places that works just as well for a relaxed morning as it does for an afternoon hangout. My go-to order is the egg, bacon, and avocado breakfast sandwich on a brioche bun. It’s delicious — and honestly pretty big — so I usually end up splitting it with someone. The atmosphere has a really chill vibe, which is one of the reasons I keep going back. On sunny days, my friends and I love to grab a table on the deck, enjoy the mountain air, and catch some rays with a good cup of coffee (or a glass of wine in the afternoon). Another great thing about Loaded Joe’s is that they’re open all day into the evening, serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Whether you're looking for a morning coffee stop, a casual meal, or a relaxed place to meet friends, it’s a great local spot to check out."
