I lived in Salt Lake for 10 years and drank a lot of coffee while I was there. Here are my favorite coffee shops in town!
The Rose is my top recommendation. It is in a beautifully restored old building. You can go to the counter to order and sit in the open tables on the left or see a hostess for table service. Theh also have a fabulous patio.
They have a large select...
The Rose Establishment
Publik has four locations around Salt Lake. My favorite is the small shop in the Avenues. Visit any location for great espresso. All of their pastries are great, but their seasonal chocolate chip pumpkin loaf is unreal.
Publik Coffee Roasters - Home
There are two Blue Copper locations. Visit the 900 south location and walk around the other local businesses. Their cold brew is my favorite in town!
Blue Copper Coffee
A beautiful, minimal coffee shop near downtown. Their espresso drinks are particularly good and they serve pastries from some esteemed local bakers.
Holy Water
A newcomer to the Salt Lake coffee scene in a beautifully designed building. Everything here is fantastic. Make sure to try a pastry from famed local bakery, Tomodachi Bakeshop.
Loki Coffee - Salt Lake, Utah
This one is a bit further south, but a great spot if you’re in that part of the valley. Great for meetings or working. They have a great food menu to go with their coffee and tea drinks.
Utah Coffee Shop | 3 Cups | Holladay
Charming neighborhood spot in the Avenues. It is a cafe by day and a white-tablecloth restaurant by night. Their coffee is straightforward with free refills. Grab a muffin or one of their fantastic desserts. It’s perfect for a hang with a friend.
Cucina
Tiny coffee shop in the heart of downtown. Their vanilla latte is excellent. There is rarely seating available, so take your drink to go!
Three Pines Coffee
Great neighborhood coffee spot. Good selection of pastries and breakfast burritos.
Coffee Noir
A Utah institution. Drive through local coffee chain. Solid cold brew and fun speciality drinks.
