New Coffee Shop First on North Side of Town

Taylor and Sage Anderson own and operate 81301, the newest Durango coffee shop. The coffee shop has several unique qualities we enjoy.
The location of the shop, at 3101 Main (next to Zia Taqueria), is the first sit-down coffee shop on the north end of main. It features a pour over coffee brewing style, where water is slowly poured over coffee beans to maintain the maximum flavors. They also roast all of their coffee on site in the “Roasting Lab.”
81301 features a different type of coffee each day, and we love the taste! Taylor and Sage learned the nuances of coffee from Sage’s parents, who have worked in the coffee business for 20 years in Winterpark.
Beyond the coffee, the atmosphere of the coffee shop and some of the unique features make it stand out. The open seating is welcoming. They also have a commitment to ministry, especially True Elevation Wilderness Ministry. Last week they hosted a fund raiser for True Elevation that raised over $3,000, which is the most True Elevation has ever made at an event. They are open to Bible studies and small groups meeting in the coffee shop. They even buy coffee drinks for a few people in ministry as they meet at 81301.
We love to see a new coffee shop on that side of town, as well as the community involvement with which they run the business. If you haven’t had a chance to visit 81310, check it out!
