Baretto 1931

What Baretto 1931 does

Baretto 1931 is a privately held, founder-operated grab-and-go espresso bar located at 302 South Main Street Unit A in Breckenridge, Colorado. Founded in summer 2024 by Nixxi and Christian and named in honor of co-founder Christian's grandmother Lois Ericson (born 1931), the business offers an Italian-style coffee program using professional-grade espresso equipment and traditional preparation methods. The menu centers on classic Italian espresso beverages (espresso, macchiato, cortado, cappuccino, latte, flat white, americano) priced between $4 and $6.50, alongside specialty drinks (chai, matcha, mocha, hot chocolate) priced up to $7.50 and a small pastry selection (croissants and specialty knots) priced at approximately $6.70.

Revenue is generated exclusively through point-of-sale transactions at the single physical storefront, with no online ordering, delivery, wholesale, or subscription channels. The customer base consists of two co-primary segments — local Breckenridge residents seeking a daily coffee ritual and tourists/vacationers seeking an authentic Italian coffee experience while visiting the mountain town. Marketing is limited to the company's Squarespace-hosted website (baretto1931.com), which functions as the primary digital presence for brand storytelling, menu display, and location information.

The business operates with seasonal hours, currently published as Wednesday through Sunday 10am-5pm (May 2025), indicating a deliberate adaptation to Breckenridge's pronounced tourism seasonality. The company is independently owned by the two co-founders with no disclosed institutional investors, parent company, or external capital, and has no subsidiary entities, patents, partnerships, or third-party integrations on record.
