    Stopped by for a latte to go. En route down I-25 took a sip and was simply stunned by how good it was. Took another, same thing. It's not my usual go-to dark-roast espresso bean, but such a delicious blend of coffee flavors that it's now what I look for in my latte. Unlikely to find it elsewhere, I fear, but will keep searching because it was just so good. If you have a chance, try one. It may simply be unbeatable.

    Oh wow, I love this place. Seeing it grow over the years has been a treat. The baristas that work here have always been really kind. There are plenty of comfy chairs and tables to study at here. It's quiet and cozy. When they first opened the walls were bare and the coffee shop had an odd austere vibe, but it's steadily grown into my favorite coffee shop to study at.

    Great variety of drinks. The coffee I got (White Chocolate Breve Latte) was delicious! They also have unique seasonal flavors. I definitely will go back.

    Smooth coffee, great place to sit and work, and good service. They also have pasta salads, cake quiche and other savory items on the side. You can park on the adjacent street.

    I popped in to try some local Espresso. It was sooo good! I had a long walk and even bought a little beanie from there shop because I forgot a hat and think of this place everyday when I wear it now! It has a relaxing vibe and such a cool name.

    Love this place. Great local alternative besides Starbucks. Coffee specials are always amazing. Even when iced it keeps the flavors and not watered down. If you are looking for a sweet treat, would definitely recommend their cakes, which they make. They are out of this world! Always rotating flavors with my favorites being peaches and cream and salted caramel cappuccino. Have not had a chance to try the breakfast and lunch food but heard they are amazing as well. Everyone is always so friendly and the service is fast!

    It’s always a good day when I get to go to Starry! The staff is so friendly and the owners are just the nicest. Their chocolate peanut butter bars are wayyy too good. I love that they’ve started doing more allergen friendly baked good options as well! They always have interesting and delicious specialty drinks too. Best coffee spot in old town.

    We love Starry Night Cafe ❤️ The lattes are always delicious and they sell some of my fiance's favorite coffee beans in house! Visiting early gives a quiet coffeehouse vibe. We normally visit on Friday evenings during the Foodie walk (DO THAT IF YOU'RE VISITING! It's the 3rd Friday of every month, and free!) and it can be pretty packed! It's a must-visit if you're in Fort Collins ☕

    I came here to get some work done and had looked up "coffee shops in Fort Collins". Starry Night had a ton of great reviews and articles written about it, so I thought I'd try it out. They have an extensive menu of syrups to pick from and lots of food options (which I didn't try). My coffee was perfect and the service was quick. When I went, the cafe was busy, and therefor, a bit loud. It seems like a great place to stop for a coffee and catch up with a friend! Great place!

    On a chilly and dreary night, my partner, and I stopped in for a couple of hot drinks. My partner speaking limited english as it is not his primary language started his order. The barista Isaac, was so very kind and took the time to make sure my partner got exactly what he wanted. All he wanted was a hot mocha and a croissant warmed just slightly. Isaac made sure it was not only perfect but the mocha was a work of art! Thank you so much Isaac for going the extra mile to make sure that my partner and I felt welcome and understood. Everything was perfect!

    Nice and quite at 7 am. A fantastic and amazing barista! A absolutely wonderful seasonal coffee made to perfection (blueberry sage)

    I like the place but have had some bad experiences lately. First time was when I had ordered nitro cold brew and it was filled with ice (shouldn’t be) and next time I was given half a cup of Nitro since it ran out but was still charged full price. I recommend but be cautious, as it can be inconsistent.

    Came here in the evening, bc sometimes it’s nice to chill together at a cafe after dinner if you don’t want to drink at a bar. Mocha was solid. It was a bit too quiet in there and the staff were a bit cold. Overall not a very welcoming or fun vibe. Might be cooler during the day.

    They have sandwich bread that is gluten free AND dairy free. The barista even double checked for me, and showed me the bag - Canyon Bakehouse brand. Thank You! (they have a few gluten free baked goods, but I wasn't in the mood, so I didn't inquire if they have milk. Most baked goods do unfortunately) Customer service was excellent. The baristas were friendly and quick with our orders. The place even picked up a bit after we sat down and I noticed everyone got their orders in a timely manner. The background music wasn't loud which is so very important if you are trying to read at a coffee shop. That is a huge mistake that other coffee shops can make - playing the music so loud you can't talk or read. The place is small and cozy. There a few comfortable chairs but most are hard chairs with tables. It feels nice and relaxing there.

    The drinks tasted great, but it was the longest wait time I’ve ever had to get a latte. Lots of customers and only one barista, they definitely need more staff.

    Such a cool spot in Old Town fort collins. The staff here is super chill and the coffee is great too. My favorite thing here is a actually this peanut butter chocolate confection.

  • 3/5 Clayton N. 1 year ago on Google
    Poor customer service. Ordered food and proceeded to wait 15 minutes before it was served because a larger party came in and proceeded to take orders that wasn’t theirs. This was despite saying something to the baristas who gave attitude and couldn’t careless. Suggestion: take customer names and call out names instead of orders so customers don’t take other customers orders. Otherwise, food and drinks were good.

    Coffee here is amazing, top notch. There is zero hurry to get that coffee to you though. I swear this place could benefit from a couple more people working is all, the line takes foreeeeeever. When I go to get coffee I don’t want to wait 20 minutes. Of all things I don’t want to wait for coffee, I need it asap please. If you can get in there when it’s empty that’s a great time. Coffee is great though. Location is awesome, very cozy spot.

    My most favorite coffee shop EVER. First off the coffee is DELICIOUS. Always perfect, my drinks are always perfect! The atmosphere is chill and welcoming. From reading to meeting someone for a hang to finishing work stuff, it’s always the best place to be. And oh my goodness the staff is incredible!!! They truly make my day everyday. If I’m ever blue I know after leaving there I’ll be back on track. Oh and the food is delish!!! The cakes are GLORIOUS!!! I can’t say enough wonderful things about this place. My most favorite place in town. ❤️❤️❤️.

    I spent over a hundred hours at starry night while writing my thesis back in 2012 so I feel confident leaving this review (I've been back many times since)! They have good coffee as any coffee shop should. However they also have a ton of other amazing things on the menu worth checking out. Giant slices of decadent home made cake? Parisian lemonade and peach/apricot smoothies? Incredible paninis and sandwiches with beet salads and fresh arugula and goat cheese salads? It's not just a spot to sip a coffee-- I totally recommend it for a bite. Very good day date spot.

    The pastry, especially croissant, is delicious! Order a hot latte, not bad. I think the latte from Mugs Coffee Lounge is better. Only one person working there. Friendly service, but it was a little bit slow.
