Bruno is Telluride’s go-to spot on Main Street for locally roasted coffee from Telluride Coffee Roasters, delicious baked goods from several local bakeries and a selection of local beer from Telluride Brewing Company and wines. The cozy cafe adjacent to Between the Covers bookstore was formerly High Alpine Coffee and located in the back of the bookstore. In Fall of 2022, the coffeeshop received a new name and expanded menu when we moved to the new location. Now boasting a front side Main Street patio, serving coffee, tea, wine, beer and cocktails, Bruno is the primo spot for Telluride locals for morning and après.
