Description

Specialties

The Merc specializes in home made fresh locally sourced meals, wonderful live music, colorful locals and friendly service.

History

Established in 1906.

The Merc, as The Jamestown Mercantile Café is known, has served the residents of Jamestown and the surounding area for over a century. It has served gold miners, railroad builders and painted ladies. The landscape around it has changed, but it remains the town’s meeting place and the best place to get the coldest beer in town. Visit with Jamestown’s locals while you enjoy small town antics– some of the most creative and hilarious people on earth.

This place is a gem! Only ten miles from Boulder, Jamestown is perfect for a weekend destination breakfast in the mountains. The Merc is in a charming western style building with a cozy atmosphere. Staff are always friendly and welcoming, and the coffee and food are consistently delicious. I especially love their Benedicts. They also host live music some nights. I’d suggest calling ahead since it’s a local spot and can be closed at unexpected times.

Best brownies EVER. I got one hot out of the oven once… I’d drive up to Jamestown just for the brownie.

I cannot say enough things about the Merc. It’s a lovely, charming, quaint establishment tucked away in the mountains. It’s a beautiful surprise. The people there were so friendly and welcoming. As someone who grew up in a city and is used to forking over a credit card before you can drink anything anywhere, I found it incredibly refreshing that at the Merc, they trust that you’ll settle up at the end of the night and track your tab on a simple piece of paper. The food is good, and I appreciate the adventurous nature of the menu. Not afraid of flavor, not afraid of spice. It’s the type of place where outsiders are obvious but not unwelcomed. And I thought it was absolutely awesome that they put out a number of big coolers of cold water for the bikers who are traversing the road. Everyone just stops and helps themselves. The vibe in Jamestown in general is relaxed and casual, and the Merc is the perfect local establishment.

The Jamestown Mercantile is a nice destination for bicyclists. They have good coffee and burritos. The staff is super friendly which is especially surprising since many of the residents of Jamestown do NOT like bicyclists.

I spent my summers growing up in Jamestown and this place was one I visited quite often! The food is good and the people who work there are very social and friendly. Coming in as a ‘outsider’ i always felt welcomed there and still get that feeling there today. The town is small so you get that nice gossip epicenter feel with your morning coffee in town of 200 people.
The patio seating is great too! Its right out front on the main road so you can people watch or chat or read the paper while waiting for your food. Th town is VERY dog friendly so if you are looking for a place to grab a bite to eat with your dog they will welcome you without a second thought. They have a water bowl for dogs and its uncommon to go there and not see a dog while you are their.
BONUS! There is a nice little park across the street to sit by the creek, read a book or play fetch with you dog.

Many a meal at the Merc. Great breakfast burrito. I remember the days before alcohol was served!

I grew up in Jamestown, and the Merc was The Place for everyone in town to hang out. There’s live music and food some weekends, and you can always get in for breakfast or lunch. The staff is all local and fun, the place has always had a great atmosphere.
The building itself is historical — it really was the mercantile when Jamestown was a mining community… I’ve heard rumors that during the big gold boom in the canyon, ladies «worked» upstairs, where now there are apartments.
The food isn’t the reason to come here, the locals and the atmosphere are. The food isn’t bad, but be prepared for a small-​town diner experience. And be sure to read the menu top-​to-​bottom for some hilarious jabs at some of our more colorful longtime residents!
