What's left to say that hasn't already been said? Great burrito, great service, cool staff, and the price is totally reasonable for what you get. I forgot to ask for no diced jalapeños and was fully prepared to buy a new burrito, but they didn't even hesitate -- they made me another one. That's old‑school customer service. Best part? They actually mix the ingredients inside the burrito, unlike Chipotle. Now I just need to come back and try a breakfast burrito. read more

I was excited to try Bonfire, but unfortunately came out less than impressed. We went to the Golden location, and the building has a very cool vibe to it. We looked at the menu right in front of the cash register and liked the description of the Chupacabra burrito ("pasture raised eggs, crispy hash browns, house-made green chile, all-natural chorizo, all-natural sausage, nitrate-free bacon, cheddar cheese, and chipotle crema"). My wife and I each ordered a Chupacabra to go. We drove out to a mountain park to have our burritos, and were disappointed when we bit into them. It definitely wasn't what was described. It was a very soggy consistency, and was filled with some type of red sauce, a bit of rice, a lot of beans, and a couple of chunks of meat. I checked the bag and receipt to verify that we ordered the correct burritos, and it appeared that we had. Getting the wrong order was pretty disappointing, particularly for an expensive carryout burrito ($15/each - okay, stuff is expensive these days, so that wasn't a deal breaker). I also understand that mistakes happen, so I wasn't totally done with Bonfire at this point, because I understand that no system involving people will ever be perfect. My wife called the location to tell them that we received the wrong order. We were about twenty minutes away at this point, but wanted them to know that we didn't get what we paid for. The guy who picked up the phone was really abrupt, and told us that we got the "lunch Chupacabra". Evidently this place uses the same name for two different burritos (there's both a breakfast and lunch Chupacabra). Ignoring the fact that it's strange to have essentially the same name for two different burritos, what we received wasn't the breakfast or lunch Chupacabra burrito, and the guy on the phone couldn't even be bothered to say "sorry for the mistake". After we got home I looked at the menu, and it appears that we were both given something that looked to be the "L-Javelina" burrito (not one I would have ever ordered, honestly). Ultimately this place seemed to have a lot of potential, and I was excited to try the burrito I had actually ordered. But, honestly, I don't see myself going back. Mistakes happen, but receiving rude service in response to politely informing the restaurant that we were given the wrong burritos really turned me off to this spot. It does seem baffling to me that they have two different burritos with the same name, but what we ordered was definitely the breakfast version, as it was the one shown on the screen we read before ordering. Despite what we were told by the rude employee on the phone, what we received was neither the breakfast or lunch version, and the service we received after that error is ultimately what left the worst taste in our mouths. read more

Went on one of their busiest days! Packed house, it was Father's Day weekend plus World Cup games = excessive wait times. We ordered ahead online and waited about an hour. Was it worth it? you ask. YES, yes it was! Fresh ingredients made to order, I appreciate that they have a vegan option, the Bon-Asaurus(big size) and with the salsa they provided it's was *chefs kiss*. If you're near the area order ahead or stay awhile the vibes were good. read more

I'm a sucker for locally sourced, organic, non-crappy ingredients and this place delivers in spades! I opted for a bowl and added chorizo. It was so good. I did 50/50 chiles and it was just right. The guys in the front were super friendly. We were getting ours to go and it did take quite awhile- longer than I expected- but it was yummy! Happy we stopped here. Nice patio if you're hanging out. It was busy on Sunday at 11! read more

Bonfire Burritos - My Jackalope (Original) bowl with chorizo - Mexican Near Me - Golden, Colorado

This place is so vibey, love the energetic and welcoming kitchen crew. Our coffee was amazing, we got the badgers lasso. For food we ordered the Bon-asaurus and the Deluxor. The Deluxor was fantastic but we were disappointed in the Bon-asaurus which completely fell apart, with no texture variation...just a bunch of mushy vegetables. read more

Bonfire Burritos has a strong reputation in the Denver area so who am I to besmirch it as a 1-time tourist visitor? I guess our particular experience was "fine" & perhaps our visit suffered from high expectations. It's been a couple weeks now but recall there was a decent crowd for lunch. Service was adequate. I had a beef burrito of some type. Again, it was fine. Plus, we kept the free paper bag to use for other things given Denver's tight no bag policies. Haha read more

Bonfire Burritos - Mexican Near Me - Golden, Colorado

Saw the raving reviews on Yelp and decided to order breakfast burritos from here online and enjoy them on our road trip. To my surprise, the order was ready ahead of the stated wait time and my burrito was still piping hot when I ate it. The burritos are also available as a bowl, and they also offer breakfast tacos on their menu. I opted for the javelina burrito, which was the perfect combination of sweet, spicy and savory, with pineapple, chorizo, hash browns, eggs, green chile, jalapeños, cotija cheese and jalapeño-pineapple crema. You can choose the spice level of your green chile: mild, 50/50, fuego; on the side or none at all. Highly recommend bonfire for a quick and easy breakfast! read more

Bonfire Burritos - Javelina & side fire roasted chile peppers - Mexican Near Me - Golden, Colorado

As a certified Breakfast Burrito connoisseur, literally one of my all time fav foods, how could I visit Golden and not check out Bonfire Burritos. Loved the vibe of this place and the guy who took my order was super cool and chill. Upon studying the menu, I instantly appreciated that they include hash browns and a sauce INSIDE the burrito. Cannot stand a dry and eggy breakfast burrito. Plus the crisp and crunch of the hash browns always adds another dimension to the experience. My chupacabra with extra cheese and chipotle crema had outstanding flavor and checked so many boxes. My only issue with it is that I didn't get the crunch from the hash browns that I was hoping for and the texture inside the burrito was a bit soupy/mushy. Maybe that's because of the extra crema. No biggie. I totally recommend this place and if we ever come back to Golden, I'm definitely giving Bonfire another go. Oh and if you're a fan of all things spicy, get it Fuego. Wasn't too bad for me on the heat but the flavor was great! read more

We were so excited to go back to Bonfire today for breakfast burritos and ordered 2 of the classic burritos. They were soggy and overly salty.

The last but not least food stop before heading back home to Vegas. This place seemed a little bit off the beaten path but was well worth it. Another place with a nice size communal outside seating area. The guy behind the counter seemed like a manager or long time employee a powered us through, in a good way through all the options being our first time. Just by the name I had to go with the chupacabra "hot" and boy did it hit the spot. Two sizes of burritos and the original was great size. Great flavor, great food, great spot and will definitely come back to this southwestern style burritos with killer green chile. read more

If you are hungry in Golden and craving something flavorful, filling, and fast, Bonfire Burritos is the place to go. We ordered two of their signature burritos. The Chupacabra and the Javelina, both with a medium level of heat. They were incredible. Each bite was packed with fresh ingredients and a perfect balance of spice. The medium heat added a really nice kick without taking away from the overall flavor. The ordering process was easy and pickup was quick. Even with a steady line of customers, the staff kept everything moving with friendly energy. The portions are generous and truly hit the spot after exploring the area. The branding is fun and eye catching too. The labeled foil wraps and bag make the experience feel thoughtful from start to finish. Five stars from us. We will absolutely be back the next time we are in Golden. read more

Worth the hype. We drove by and saw it was crowded and decided we had to check it out. I had grandma's margarita and it was an interesting margarita with some peach schnapps. I had the Jackalope burrito which was a no meat burrito and it was a delicious burrito! My only warning: I am someone that regularly eats Frank's hot sauce on everything, they ask mild, medium or hot and I got my burrito as "medium". It was great flavor but my lips were burning and it was pretty smokin hot. Unless you eat like habanero sauce, I would highly recommend mild. Epic place to stop after touring the Coors brewery . read more

If you want something that looks like prison food, order the classic with carne asada bowl. I'm not the kind of person that photos food everywhere I go but I wish I did this time. This was the saddest looking food ever. It was beyond salty and the shredded cheese looked like it was super cheap. Waxy cheese. My husbands burrito was so salty that he didn't finish it. The line out the door had us excited to eat, not sure what the hype is about? ‍ $76 for 3 people. Sorry, wish our experience was better. read more

Great burritos, finally got to try it from the restaurant! Picked some up to-go after yoga on red rocks and they were ready in 20min! Jackalope was our favorite but the deluxor packed a nice spicy kick! Parking is tricky and there isn't very much especially during busy times. Hope you get lucky or catch a break on side roads. If you're new (like I was), pick up orders are on the outdoor patio side! The guy at the Pick up counter (inside) won't make eye contact with you or help unless he calls your name so don't bother. Regular customers are kind enough to assist however. Besides some poor customer service, it's a nice location to grab a quick breakfast after a workout, hike, walk, etc. read more

Love this spot. Pro tip- get your burrito smothered for a special Colorado experience. Enjoy breakfast burritos all day Sunday!

Cool vibe, awesome location, and friendly staff highlight bonfire Burritos in Golden. This is the ideal spot to get a post hike burrito or a pre hike breakfast burrito lol. I've been here for lunch and breakfast. I would say that their protein is the highlight of the burrito. Steak had an awesome smoke to it, chorizo had a light and spicy flavor & bacon is crispy!!! Overall, I would rate the burritos a 3 1/2 out of 5. The sauces and style of burrito is not my style personally but doesn't mean others would not love it. I typically request sauce on the side so I can taste each ingredient vs. just the strong green chili sauce they put into the burritos (it kind of overtakes the flavor profile. Burritos are $12-$15 dollars which is pricey but overall it's a chill place to grab a burrito, hang out before or after an adventure and support locals. read more

Bonfire Burritos ... WOW! We were traveling up i70 and searched for burritos along the route. A short detour through Golden (which is a super cute town) brought us to Bonfire. It has an unpretentious indoor outdoor vibe going on. The staff was super friendly and welcoming. What we got: - Javelin (spicy) - I was on the fence about this one. Although I love smoked pork I was worried the pineapple would make it too sweet. Spoiler, the flavors were perfect. I'd recommend this one 100%. - Classic (chicken, med spicy) - this one wasn't bad by any stretch but I'd choose a different protein next time. The pork in the Javelin was better. - Burrito butter - this is a house made condiment they have available. It's vinegary and adds a nice brightness. Their style of burrito is unique. I can only describe it as "microwave burrito" style. Which doesn't mean they aren't delicious, they are, just that the internals are more homogeneous than other burritos I've had. I'll be back to try their breakfast burritos, for sure! They also have alcohol and happy hour deals. read more

Hands down the best breakfast burritos we've ever had! This was one of the first places I saved for our trip to Golden and I'm so glad I did! The burritos come in 2 sizes and we like variety so of course, we ordered 3 small ones. They are packed with protein and other ingredients so they really filled us up! I couldn't even finish my portion. We loved the chorizo in the Chupacabra with the green chiles, so good! The Burro was delicious with the fresh taste of peppers that really balanced the heaviness of the other ingredients. The one that surprised us the most was the Javelina! Normally I'm not a huge pineapple fan but this was SO good! The fresh pineapple combined with the chorizo was absolutely delicious. We didn't love the "burrito butter", it tasted good but I enjoyed the flavor of the burritos better. Everybody working in here was really friendly and it was definitely a fast casual type of place. We sat outside with a beautiful view of the surrounding mountains and landscape. I saw a bush rustling at my feet and there was a baby bunny hopping around!! So peaceful! It's probably a good thing that I don't live close by because a breakfast burrito hates to see me coming. I would be here literally every day. read more

Everything on the menu is top shelf. Photos are of the Chupacabra, but you can't go wrong. They are opening two new locations, and I can't wait. read more

Absolutely the best breakfast burritos. I love the small bacon burrito and it's still 2 meals for me. Very high quality ingredients.

Amazing burritos!! Was heading up the mountains and was craving some breakfast burritos so I found this place. Friendly staff and this place does get very busy on weekends and mornings. The burrito is very saucy! Gives a mouthful of flavor with each bite. There's option to add more of that "burrito butter" sauce as well as some "diesel drip" The burritos are a good size and has a balanced portion of meat and other fillings. Good amount of seating and was warm inside. I also got their frozen burritos. Not as saucy but makes a pretty quick and good breakfast when staying on the mountains. Would definitely come back when I'm snowboarding in Denver again! read more

I've had Bonfire bookmarked for a while and we finally made our way over. Wow. It's places like Bonfire that make me happy. We both love Mexican food, especially tacos and burritos. They have both and know what they're doing. If you read through the reviews, you'll see reviews that are almost a decade old - sharing the same themes: delicious food and quick service. They've grown (of course they have!) and now have a bar, walk up ordering and lots of seating options. They are *really* well staffed - and it shows. They had a small line and lots of folks already waiting but orders were being cranked out like clockwork. We sat at the bar and just watched their well oiled machine humming along. It was fascinating. And impressive. Ordinary folks killing it. And the food? Let's start with the compostable containers and utensils - these little (but massively important) details always get my attention and given a choice to return to two equally good establishments, I'll choose the more sustainable place hands down, every time. So yes, we notice. I ordered a bowl - basically a deconstructed burrito in a bowl, original size. The Jakelope got my vote this morning but I'll be honest, there were several other combos that I wanted to try (and will try cause we'll be back). Such good flavors - especially the green chilis! My partner ordered a burrito and inhaled it. No picture but man, the flavors were fabulous and neither one of us had not one critique to share. So good. Cocktails? Yep, they have them and their bar service was great. House margs are not too likely and not too sweet. Perfect. Man, I am already thinking about a return trip. Don't bookmark Bonfire and wait like we did. You'll regret it. Go sooner than later. You're welcome in advance. read more

Food quality has been going downhill over the years. My last couple of burrito bowls were tiny portions and extremely soupy--I couldn't even tell that there were potatoes in it today (Burro). The atmosphere is still quaint and the staff are always excellent, but it's just not worth the price these days. You are better off picking up one of their frozen burritos that they stock at King Soopers now--it's less than half the price as buying it here with a normal portion size guaranteed. read more

Had such a great experience. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming! The food and drinks were delicious, fresh, and flavorful!

After an early morning appointment my husband and I decided to stop for a late breakfast. This was during the week. It was busy but not overly so. I imagine on the weekend it can get quite hectic. I got a breakfast burrito with roasted chilis inside. Cannot go wrong with that. They have some fun beverage selections. We sat inside, although there is a nice outside space as well. The parking lot is adequate for the weekdays, but I bet it fills and overflows on the weekend. Worth a stop! read more
