Coffee and cannabis go hand-in- hand. That’s not just personal experience talking – science agrees, too. Studies suggest coffee amplifies the elevating effects of cannabis, causing the high to not only last longer, but to be felt more intensely, too. That may be partially due to the caffeine in coffee working in tandem with the cannabinoids, but coffee also contains many terpenes, too. And terpenes, as we know from the entourage effect, are just as responsible for the heady effects from cannabis as the cannabinoids are.
So while you’re sight-seeing in Pueblo, be sure to stop by the town’s favorite coffee shops while floating on cloud nine.
Solar Roast Coffee
Solar Roast Coffee makes the most out of everything nature – and modern technology – have to offer. All of their certified organic beans are roasted with solar-powered equipment at low heats and the Rockies’ high elevation. The result? Amazingly smooth coffee that’s both delicious and environmentally sustainable. At their Pueblo headquarters, you can buy their green-tech joe by the mug or by the bag.

The 5th & Main Espresso Bar
Coffee is awesome and all, but sometimes you need something with a real kick. At the 5th & Main Espresso Bar, located near the heart of downtown Pueblo, you’ll get a selection of espressos to choose from. They put just as much, if not more, effort into their food as they do their coffees, and they serve up some of the best sandwiches, soups, and wraps in town.
