The 8 Best Coffee Shops in Park City Utah This Winter

“As long as there was coffee in the world, how bad could things be?” – Cassandra Clare

What do you do when caffeine craving meets the call of the wild? If your happen to be in Utah, then sniffing out the best coffee shops in Park City is a great first step! Point of fact - none other than Hugh “Wolverine” Jackman once remarked, “To me, the smell of fresh-made coffee is one of the greatest inventions.” In fact, the average American spends $1,092 on coffee annually and 63 percent of American adults drink coffee daily, according to the National Coffee Association. However, finding just the right coffee shop to savor your delicious, hot-brewed coffee can sometimes be a challenge. The best coffee shops not only provide the perfect pick-me-up to get your day off to the right start, but also function as true gathering places where friends and family members just chill out for hours (think of such inviting fictional coffee shop hangouts as Central Perk in Friends, Monk’s Café in Seinfeld and Café Nervosa in Frasier), which has earned some of these java junctions the double moniker as the best places to eat in Park City as well.

Indeed, stopping by a favorite Park City coffee shop has become a time-honored tradition for locals and visitors alike before (or even after!) engaging in popular Park City winter activities such as skiing the white-powder slopes, snowtubing, ice skating, dog sledding, snow biking and snowmobiling, among other winter pursuits. Over the past several years, Park City has become known for its burgeoning coffee culture and the area is chock-full of small-batch craft roasters. Craving a hot mug of java to combat those chilly Park City winter mornings? Here are the 8 best coffee shops in Park City, Utah, this winter:

1 | Atticus Coffee, Books & Teahouse | A welcome, cozy retreat during the cold winter months for Park City locals and visitors alike, Atticus Coffee, Books & Teahouse is known as “Park City’s unofficial living room.” Enjoy amazing coffee (featuring Millcreek Coffee Roasters beans) and tea drinks (including 65 varieties of direct-sourced loose-leaf teas), as well as fresh and organic smoothies, in a laid-back, literary atmosphere surrounded by thousands of new and used books that you can browse through and/or purchase. If you’re feeling adventurous, you may want to opt for one of the unique specialty drinks at Atticus such as Mexican Mocha (spicy dark chocolate) and The Finch (a Cubano-style latte topped off with cinnamon). Characterized by Park City Magazine as “a quintessential independent coffee shop,” it’s the perfect Park City coffee shop to drop by for a quick cup of joe or to simply escape the wintry chill and hang out for a lazy morning. Atticus also features a healthy breakfast and lunch menu full of local Wasatch bagels and baked goods, sandwiches, wraps and salads, as well as vegan burritos and organic vegan chili. In addition, Atticus offers “funky” and “eclectic” gifts, cards, journals and works by local artists for sale. The idea for Atticus was inspired by To Kill a Mockingbird, Harper Lee’s critically acclaimed 1960 Pulitzer Prize-winning novel, which was turned into a hit 1962 movie of the same name starring Gregory Peck as “Atticus Finch” and Mary Badham as “Scout.” By the way, Atticus, which first opened in 2010, donates a portion of every sale to local nonprofit organizations, making this mug the most generous, high quality coffee Park City has to offer!

In addition, Pink Elephant shares a space with Land Juicery juice bar. A portion of sales from Pink Elephant goes to preserving and protecting wildlife and open lands in the West. By the way, the eclectic name of this bustling little Park City coffee shop was derived from a line in Jack London’s 1913 novel John Barleycorn referring to drunken hallucinations: “There are, broadly speaking, two types of drinkers. There is the man whom we all know, stupid, unimaginative, whose brain is bitten numbly by numb maggots; who walks generously with wide-spread, tentative legs, falls frequently in the gutter, and who sees, in the extremity of his ecstasy, blue mice and pink elephants. He is the type that gives rise to the jokes in the funny papers.”
