Amante Coffee on Walnut is the soccer aficionado of coffee shops. They play the most important matches much to the joy of the soccer (or should I say futbol) fans that gather there to watch.

Beyond that I really like this coffee shop - it's open and bright, they have good Italian coffee, delicious treats (including gelato and gluten-free options) and most importantly free wi-fi. They even serve beer and wine - it's like there isn't anything this place doesn't offer you.

OMFG.  Four words for you: Honey Peanut Butter Gelato.  One after-word for you: Flavorgasm.
Stopped in here after dinner to get some gelato, had the Honey Peanut Butter and a Costa Rican Vanilla (which was also good, but the honey pb is above and beyond).  Attractive counter man dressed in a a vest and slacks added a nice Euro feel.  Sat outside on the patio, looked at the mountains, and had to check my pulse to make sure I hadn't died and gone to heaven.
I will be dreaming of this gelato for years to come.

I must agree with Dave!  Skip the rest of those chain coffee's and make the trip over to Amante!  The coffee is so authentic, it reminds me of being in Europe, down to the giant espresso machine and soccer on the tele!

The coffee is great, and some interesting varieties, not your standard fare and *don't* ask for a 2-pump vanilla double blended mocha - just get an americano, espresso, or maybe a lattee - keep it simple to focus on the coffee, not the fillers.

Also, their gelato is great!  Get a sample and then pick one you like.

Lots of power ports and I assume wi-fi, because there were 5 mac's there surfing away.

They open early and sell their beans, so take some home!

Delicious Italian coffee at a decent price, bright interiors, and, well, I'm a sucker for the well-designed graphics on their to-go cups.  We went twice in one day last weekend, as we were in need of a little girls' room.  Both times I eyed the gelato and pastries and did my best to resist.

Forget the burnt coffee at Starbucks, this place is the real deal.  I live about 20 minutes away from this location, but I find an excuse to drop in every few weeks.  A real hole-in-the-wall look like you see on the side streets in Europe.  The cafe au lait is my thing.  They have have euro-style pastries as well as locally made gelato from Glacier.  They also seem to have a liquor license as the last time I was in they had a few bottles to make coffee cocktails and some Italian beers on tap.  The baristas are efficient and personable.  And they have WiFi. Amante is a chain local to Colorado with just 3 stores including a shop in Steamboat. Go there: support local businesses.
