Went all out for breakfast with my family. Everything was superb! Service was so lovely and inviting. We were sat within a minute of walking in which shows someone is keeping an eye on the door even if they aren't standing right there. Wasn't too crowded [Wednesday morning] but everything came out hot and fresh and delicious! Server was very attentive to refills and if we needed anything extra. Steak was cooked perfectly, French toast was delicious [not just egg bread tasting] hot chocolate was perfect temperature and well mixed so no powder clumps, the cinnamonster cinnamon roll was AMAZING 10/10 recommend, coffee cake was soft and light. Absolutely amazing local place that we will certainly return to if we're back in Colorado!

I just got into town after moving away and being gone for many years. The last five or so being in Florida where they don't even have green chili. So I got the huevos rancheros con green chili and it was great. I've been missing that flavor. This place is super packed on a Sunday morning but I sat at the bar and got quick service. Would recommend, decent prices too.

Great neighborhood breakfast place with an excellent menu and fast friendly service. I’ve been a huge fan of crab benedict lately. They are kind enough to let you choose between potatoes and fruit as your side. Their omelettes are pretty good as well. They have plenty of parking, and both indoor and outdoor seating. Outside mini garden is a bonus no doubt. It might be slightly loud if you sit outside(since it’s next to a busy Colfax st), but other than that, you’ll love it. Ask for Shawna if you want consistent fast friendly service. She’s attentive, experienced and fun.

This place was absolutely awesome! We were really surprised at how good it really was ... First off the coffee rocks!! It wouldn't matter to us if the food was delicious .. but the coffee wasn't the best .. Luckily it's strong enough without being bitter .. nutty and powerfully caffeinated. The wait staff is very helpful and and kept the cups full! My wife had the Eggs Benedict.. the hollandaise sauce was really good. with just the right amount of lemon. I had the green chilli Huevos.. with hash browns. .. I'm from Houston Texas so I'm not as familiar with the green chilli sauce as Colorado natives might be. I was so WOW'ed by the incredible taste .. I might just have another full trip to Colorado just for this sauce!! While we were eating breakfast, .. a bus full of " Senior Center Citizens " filled the table behind us. Easily 16 to 20 people. Everyday chose different drinks and food .. about 3 or 4 waitress and waiters started delivering breakfast and drinks so quickly... and with the best attitude and attention to details. We were so impressed how wonderful they treated the elderly customers. I can't wait to get to come back to this amazing restaurant, .. I highly recommend you try this place everytime you're within 50 miles!!
