GREAT VIEWS, GREAT SERVICE! We stopped here for dinner on a Thursday with a party of four and had great seating up top on the roof. Service was super fast - my husband and I split the cheesesteak with a side of chili (was craving red beef chili) and a chicken salad. The food was solid - wasn't blown away by anything but it was all tasty (chicken in the salad was super dry, chili was fairly soupy and not the hearty meaty goodness I was anticipating). However, the views and service were both 5/5. Great spot to stop in for a quick meal.

Friendly fast service. Got HH chick. Excellent! Hot fresh chicken sandwich. Coleslaw yum.

Bar area cool vibe & entire area sits 30.

Service was quick, friendly, answered questions w/a smile, food served fairly quick/warm, not hot: burgers are smashed/somewhat dry, toppings plentiful and thick, fries generous but out of a bag, cheesesteak portion huge, moderately flavorful/ cheesy/ stringy w/3 pieces of gristle, breads nothing special yet soft. Nice hippish vibe, friendly but musta chose unimaginative menu items

Great spot in Breckenridge - off the main street (in the parallel street). The food was really delicious and the service was very nice and quick. I would absolutely recommend this place if you're in town and want something a little bit quieter than the main street. The cheesesteak sandwich was really good.

Italian trio with a side of coleslaw.

We had a dog with us so we had to sit on the rooftop which was fine. It had been windy so they warned us ahead of time that the umbrellas had been taken down so we would have to deal with the sun. We were ok with that. The service was excellent as was the food. My husband said that is smash burger was one of the best he has ever had. I had the trio Italian sandwich. It was excellent also. The cosmopolitans that we had were excellent also. You never know what you're going to get when you order a cosmopolitan. Some are way too sweet. These were perfect. We would go again.

Everything should have added up- they make their own sauces, the meat is local, they imported amorosa bread from Philly, the service was excellent, friendly, and prompt.. but the final meals just fell a little flat. The fries weren't seasoned at all, they charged $2 for honey mustard, and while the sandwiches we ordered sounded inspired, they were missing a complexity of flavor that would have really made everything stand out. The toro Italian had a lot of kick with the peppers, but the meat didn't seem to have any seasoning. The Asian chicken sandwich was burnt, but even had it not been, it didn't have enough sauce on it. That I think was the biggest issue with all the sandwiches we tried- the paucity of sauce made them all kind of dry and sad. For a $20 sandwich, please give me some sauce! I had high hopes since they had such good ratings.

Bullseye burger + fries

10/10 will be back The service was superb, the patio views are epic (+ dog friendly) and the food was delicious. I ordered the bullseye burger - smash burger-ish with jalapeño popper vibes. The fries were crispy and salty! Could not have asked for a better post-hike lunch spot.

Dummies

Service was superb. Went in before they closed to specifically have some wings (drummies) and it was delicious. And by the way they are frenched chicken wings! We will be back!

Steak salad

Reviews are largely positive. Many highlight the friendly attentive service, fresh burgers and cheesesteaks, and a cozy inviting atmosphere with rooftop and patio views.

We were looking for a great cheeseburger in town and this hit the spot! Our kids loved the kids cheeseburgers too, so that's a big win!

I'm still giving this coffee shop five stars because, despite my experience today, I have always…read moreappreciated this establishment and the memories my family and I have made here over the years. I've been coming here since 2009, and although I'm not in town very often anymore, this has always been my go-to spot whenever I visit. It's a place where my children and I enjoy getting coffee, cinnamon rolls, or lunch, sitting down to relax, and simply spending time together. Over the years, it has become a familiar and welcoming place that feels a little like home. Unfortunately, today was the first time in all these years that I genuinely felt unwelcome. During my visit, an employee made the comment, "Boy, we just can't get rid of you, can we?" Although it was delivered in what seemed to be a joking, sarcastic manner, I found the remark inappropriate and uncomfortable. I have never had an employee here speak to me that way before. Shortly afterward, I overheard what sounded like the same employee speaking with other staff members and making a comment along the lines of, "Who is this guy?" I certainly understand that employees joke around, and I'm willing to give someone the benefit of the doubt. However, there is a difference between friendly humor and making a longtime customer feel as though their presence is an inconvenience. As a paying customer who has supported this business for more than 17 years, I would hope that I am just as welcome to come in, enjoy a coffee, sit down, and relax as anyone else. I regularly see customers spending hours here working on their laptops, socializing, or simply enjoying the atmosphere. I've always understood that to be part of what makes a coffee shop such an inviting place. I'm not asking for special treatment, nor do I expect anyone to recognize me or know how long I've been coming here. I simply expect the same courtesy, professionalism, and respect that every customer deserves. I'm leaving my five-star rating because one disappointing interaction should not erase 17 years of positive experiences. However, I sincerely hope management takes this feedback constructively. A place that has felt like a home away from home for so many years should never leave a loyal customer questioning whether they are welcome.

This place is so cute!! I can imagine on weekends or in the mornings that it is super packed out…read more They have comfortable seating and it's really small so I'm sure the lines get long We stopped in for a midday, pick me up around the time that they were closing. I saw affogato on the menu and since that is one of my favorite snacks, I had to try it. Not sure if it was the unsweetened espresso, but I didn't really like the flavor of that particular coffee and I felt like it was a little sloppy, they handed it to me with the coffee already poured over the ice cream, which if you know this dessert means those first few seconds and first couple of bites are the most precious when the hot coffee meets the cold ice cream, but hasn't fully cooled off yet itself. in the coffee itself is good quality & I'm sure I would come back and enjoy a latte again in the future!

Love the chili. I enjoy the deck and patio. Cozy inside too. Old Fashioned drink is great also.read more

Take Away: Be careful who you hire as a server…read more Diners can quickly forgive a one-off, mishap in a respected restaurant when it's busy. When a clueless, loud, "sing-song-y" talkin' server is added to the misfortune, it becomes apparent how the atmosphere of the meal is as important, if not more important, than the meal itself. Blue Moose is a solid, unpretentious restaurant. The serving are generous and the staff creates a family experience. There is enough variety and a nod to GF and V ingredients for all to feel at home. The prices reflect quality ingredients but stay below Breckenridge's gourmet establishments. Skiers love this place for their hearty meals. Blue Moose knows their audience. We tend to do breakfast at home but they mirror the vibe we love about Breck so from time to time we stop by. We split our time between Breckenridge and an out of state home. My husband has worked ski season on the mountain for decades, full and part-time. I waited a week to post this but should mngmnt be wondering about how diners are experiencing the service... Labor Day Sunday, busy & chilly, we were the first to say "sure" to an outdoor table. I requested extra broccoli with the garden breakfast. When it arrived the biscuit was in a pool of hot water. I quickly tilted the plate by placing an upside down spoon on one side to drain the water away from the over-easy eggs and veggies. I understood what happened. The broccoli was over steamed to the point of yellowing stems. It was plated and in the minutes it took to walk it from kitchen to table, the water was dripping off the stems and pooling on the plate. My thought process: I dislike wasting food, I did not want to get a cook scolded - stuff happens, we are smack in the middle of the patio - I am loyal to Breck businesses so did not want to call attention to the mishap and have that discussion invade the other diners' experience. "Suck it up and see if I can get a fresh bisquit" I thought as I lovingly caressed two packs of orange marmalade - a true sign of distinguished breakfast service. As the minutes ticked by I was increasingly dismayed that the pool of water was turning yellow from my over easy egg yolks. The mess was hard to miss. Our server flitted by our table a few time and I saw her look directly at my watery plate twice. Once she asked if everything was fine and we sort of nodded and I quickly raised my hand and said "May I please (have a fresh bisquit) but she kept walking after I said please. I placed the brocolli into a food storage container I typically bring for leftovers when dining out, hoping the plate could be removed ASAP. I salvaged the egg whites and enjoyed the other veggies. Man, she could talk up a storm with the other diners but kept gliding past us. I sustained my dream of a fresh, warm biscuit slathered with orange marmalade. Our Server-in-denial continued to flit. Neither of us could catch her eye. When she finally brought over the check, I pointed to my plate. OK - this is where I forgot a rhetorical question is too subtle during a biscuit crisis. "How does this happen?" I quietly asked, hunching over the plate, pointing to the yolky water and wet flour ball. I just wanted the issue acknowledged so I could get a quiet, sympathetic "Oh, no!" and fresh biscuit to go. Instead, she explained loudly, loudly, the hydraulics of brocolli that has not been drained. I raised my hand slightly, mumbling "Please stop, I know how to cook." I have never met the owner(s) but I was thinking of them and the people who are making a living from the restaurant. I did not want others to hear this conversation. Our server seemed to want everyone, 5 feet beyond normal earshot, to know that my ordering extra brocolli is the reason my plate has a pool of water, though I don't think they wanted to know about it. I was afraid to ask for a fresh biscuit as that was sure to extend the conversation and there was no telling what was going to be said around that issue. She then rushed off came back loudly announcing to the dining circle around us that she was "giving" us a "local" discount and our bill was now $40.16. Golly, gosh. We did not expect to be identified as "locals" as we don't go there often. We did not want this to be an issue as we are "local" enough to want everyone to enjoy a Breck Breakfast. But when she reappeared announcing her valor in securing us a local discount, it was ridiculously self-serving and once again we were forced to be "on stage" with her. I will be back to get that fresh biscuit to-go. Full confession: being forced to be "on stage" I lost track of the fact that I never stopped clutching the 2 marmalade packets and they are now in our fridge. Sorry about that.
