Tributary Coffee Roasters is a customer-focused, service-driven roaster, coffee bar, and café in Gunnison, Colorado. Our products are thoughtfully sourced, meticulously prepared and served with a smile. We love the community that gathers around coffee and are honored and humbled by those who choose to gather around ours.

Travis Colbert fell in love with coffee early one morning while drinking coffee picked from wild trees growing in the village and then pan-roasted over an open fire in a remote region of the Southern Philippines. Shortly after moving to Colorado in 2005, he landed a job as the production manager for a roaster in Minturn, and has been roasting coffee and serving as a barista in a number of cafes ever since. Prior to relocating to Gunnison County, Travis was a partner and operator of a roaster and café in Leadville.

He is excited to be part of the community of Gunnison as owner and operator of Tributary Coffee Roasters. We serve house roasted coffee, meticulously crafted coffee & espresso drinks, homemade baked goods, fresh and nourishing breakfast and lunch fare. We are all connected by and dependent upon water.

From those growing the coffee we serve high in their own watersheds, to our small roaster and cafe in the headwaters of the Colorado River, we deeply value and desire community connections. We hope that our tributary brings life and vitality to those downstream.
