This is a pleasant spot with some nice outside seating for nice days. The food was good and the portions are big, especially the biscuits! The service was also very good, everything was clicking. I like that there are some dishes with green chiles

Lets start with downtown location and had parking. Staff was amazing. Try the sherpa tea. Cold or hot. So was it good? I went each morning for almost a week. Cost was great. Team that works there were like family or my best friends. Make sure to check them out

First off let me say, staff gets five stars! I've been a couple of times now and they are so friendly and incredibly accommodating, they always make you feel welcome. Ambiance is that of a little diner/cafe, nothing too fancy but definitely a friendly vibe. I've had a couple of breakfast things and while I'm never blown away, the food is solid (except I found the gf pumpkin pancakes tangy and odd, but that's just me) and reasonably priced. Their coffee is great! Also very family friendly- they even have coloring sheets for the kiddos. I would recommend if you're looking for somewhere casual and super friendly!

The interior is typical diner style- pretty cramped and crowded. The service was great, everyone was really nice. I got blueberry pancakes and was surprised to see that the better maple syrup was extra. I would assume the best maple syrup would be part of it. It didn't come with any sides. I also got a cup of the green chili soup and the taste was decent, but it didn't come out hot.

I came here with a friend for a weekend brunch after someone recommended their pancakes. It's in a strip mall with plenty of parking. There was a wait for 2 people around 11am but no more than 15 minutes. It's got an old school diner feel inside. I got the banana walnut pancakes along with an iced vanilla coffee, courtesy of Dana D. I was happy with the food, service, and prices, and though the pancakes were fluffy, filling, and certainly had banana and walnut flavor, I wish they came topped with some fresh banana slices and walnut bits. Other than that, it's a solid, casual brunch experience and that's enough for me.

My husband and I stayed at an Airbnb right up the street and the host recommended the walnut café. When we got there, there were a lot of people sitting in the outdoor area, but we were seated almost right away. The outdoor area was great because almost everyone had a dog so it was fun to see all the pups enjoying the sun. We had the most lovely server who was attentive and super friendly. Our food was delicious! I altered the egg sandwich to have it on a bagel, and I also added avocado, we got the blueberry cornbread, and pancakes. My only complaint is that the coffee tasted burnt. There is a ton of outdoor seating and plenty of indoor seating as well. We would absolutely go back!

Found this place on Yelp! that had good gluten free options; breakfast I find its always the most difficult meal to find good food for. It's a pretty classic oldschool diner, booths, tables, bar seating, and outdoor tables; plus sports magazines of [I'm assuming] athletes from CO. We sat at the bar and ordered some coffees, and got to watch them make it - they were oversweet in our opinion, too much milk and spice. The waffle was really good and came with quality fruit - not all of that melon junk! :p We got turkey patty and vegan, both of which were good, but they mixed up the orders a bit - though we were able to tell which ones they were. They seem to have a pretty varied menu and their kitchen seemed quite busy the whole time we were there, but everything was pretty quick.
