The Black Kettle Coffee Shop

The Black Kettle Coffee Shop, which presents itself on its website as The Kettle Cafe, serves breakfast, lunch and coffee at 16 S Main St in Alma, Colorado, the highest incorporated town in the United States. The cafe makes plant-based dishes alongside meat options for both breakfast and lunch, with salads and sandwiches built around local, organic ingredients.

The cafe is the vision of owner Jamie Fletcher, a self-taught chef who moved from Philadelphia and spent years cooking in Breckenridge before bringing the concept to this part of South Park. The menu leans toward fast, filling food, with vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free choices, and a Philly-style breakfast item may turn up on the specials board. Takeout is available, and a menu is posted on the website.
