The Best Coffee Shops in Ketchum, Sun Valley, Hailey & Bellevue
By Matt Stevenson | Stevenson Real Estate Group
Mornings in the Wood River Valley start best with a great cup of coffee. Whether you’re gearing up for a day on the slopes, heading into the office, or soaking in the mountain sunrise, the right coffee shop can set the tone for the day.
Here’s my local guide to the best spots for your morning coffee in Ketchum, Sun Valley, Hailey, and Bellevue — where quality, community, and mountain-town charm come together perfectly.
1. Maude’s Coffee and Clothes – Ketchum
Address: 311 1st Ave N, Ketchum
Website: maudesinketchum.com
Maude’s is a true Ketchum gem — a mix of espresso bar and boutique, where you can sip a cappuccino while browsing curated clothing and home goods. It’s equal parts cozy and cool. When I’m meeting clients, friends, or family downtown, Maude’s is a go-to. It captures that casual, creative Ketchum energy that makes the town so special.
2. Java on Fourth – Ketchum
Address: 191 4th St W, Ketchum
Website: javaidaho.com
A Ketchum institution. Locals have been lining up for Java’s “Bowl of Soul” for decades — a mocha with Mexican chocolate that has its own fan base. The atmosphere is lively, dog-friendly, and distinctly mountain-town.
3. 4Roots – Ketchum
Address: 400 N Main St, Ketchum
Website: 4rootsketchum.com
4Roots combines locally roasted espresso with cold-pressed juices, smoothies, and healthy breakfast bites. The menu leans organic and wellness-focused — a great reflection of Ketchum’s active, balanced lifestyle. If you’re heading out for a hike or yoga class, this is the ideal pre-fuel stop.
4. Café Della – Ketchum
Address: 400 Sun Valley Rd, Ketchum
Website: cafedella.com
Elegant yet approachable, Café Della is known for its exceptional coffee, locally sourced ingredients, and warm, refined setting. Whether you’re meeting a friend for breakfast or just need a quiet spot to catch up on emails, this café delivers sophistication with small-town charm. Their espresso and house-made pastries are among the best in the valley, and their locally sourced market is a great place to pick up high quality produce, and interesting provisions.
5. Hailey Coffee Company – Hailey
Address: 219 S Main St, Hailey
Website: haileycoffeeco.com
A cornerstone of the valley’s coffee culture, Hailey Coffee Company roasts its beans locally and serves consistently great coffee in downtown Hailey. It’s where locals gather to start their day, and where many newcomers fall in love with the pace of the valley. Strong coffee, great zucchini bread, and an easy atmosphere.
6. Wylde Beet – Hailey
Address: 91 E Croy St, Hailey
Website: wyldebeet.com
A vibrant, health-focused café in the heart of Hailey, Wylde Beet serves excellent espresso, matcha lattes, and fresh plant-based meals. It’s bright, modern, and buzzing with local energy. Try their seasonal bowls, or my wife’s favourite - Mav’s Mac n Cheese.
7. Black Owl Coffee – Hailey
Address: 208 N River St, Hailey
Website: blackowlcoffee208.com
Black Owl Coffee offers handcrafted espresso drinks, pastries, and an inviting, low-key atmosphere. It’s a local favorite for remote work or friendly catch ups — personal, calm, and full of community warmth. Their homemade pesto in the scramble is a must try.
8. The Grind Coffee House – Bellevue
Address: 106 S Main St, Bellevue
Website: (Facebook: The Grind Coffee House – Bellevue ID)
In Bellevue, The Grind is the spot. Expect friendly faces, strong espresso, and a true small-town vibe. It’s simple, welcoming, and perfectly fits the Bellevue rhythm — an easy place to start the day or grab a coffee on the go.
9. Konditorei – Sun Valley Village
Address: 1 Sun Valley Rd, Sun Valley
Website: sunvalley.com/dining/konditorei
Nestled in the heart of Sun Valley Village, Konditorei offers Austrian-inspired pastries, rich coffee, and a fireside atmosphere that feels like a cozy European chalet.
