Very best breakfast in Alamosa. Always great food and excellent service. Definitely go to the campus if you are looking for breakfast!

Have eaten here before and it was great. That and the service was all that kept this at two stars. Food was just plain bad, omlettes were made with about an egg and a half and were cold. Hash browns portion would fit in the palm of my hand. The worst was the toast. Old a stale. Hit the plate with it and suddenly realized I could brake the plate with the toast. Really!!! read more

Cute hole in the wall, just not all the hype. Everyone rants and raves about the cinnamon rolls, and they are not wrong. But that's it. The service does what they can, but they seemed pretty understaffed. Drinks took a minute and the OJ came out warm, we werent able to get a refill on coffee. They dont have as many options on the menu as it seems and the green chili is not much to write home about. Their prices haven't changed and cent but you get what you pay for, the portions are on the smaller side. It was a pretty mediocre experience but I wouldn't see myself going back in the future read more

All I have to say is wow! This place is absolutely amazing. I'm gonna start off with the restaurant itself. It's a very old back in the past style café where all the locals go the price of everything is unbelievably great. You can go with a family of four and get away with less than $60 spent on your breakfast which if you go to IHOP it's ridiculously priced the food itself had amazing flavor and was warm fresh and came out fast service they prioritize the locals before the new people other than that amazing place. read more

Campus Cafe - Biscuits and gravy - American Near Me - Alamosa, Colorado

Freindly and Fast Service. Food was really good and the staff was very attentive and friendly. Busy, but not too busy when my family went. The only thing you could have an issue with, but you shouldn't is that the tables and chairs are pretty tight along the front window where we sat. Highly recommend to go there and see for yourself. read more

This is a fantastic local old time coffee shop. We went for breakfast but lunch is something I'd investigate. Biscuits & Gravy was excellent and you just can't say that everywhere. I had mine with eggs over medium and they were cooked perfectly. They don't to those right everywhere either. Friendly prompt service. Always kept the coffee filled. Go and make friends with a local. read more

Thanks Yelp for guiding me here. Campus Cafe is a local gem, a real treasure find for breakfast. Clearly it is well loved by the locals and fills up quickly with people wanting a great meal. Bacon, eggs, hashbrowns were cooked to order and perfectly satisfying. Our server was prompt, friendly and clearly knew people and how to do her job. Fresh brewed coffee was delicious. No improvements needed. ...and what's more the prices seemed surprisingly low -- or maybe I should say a really good value. Good food, in a welcoming place with sports memorabilia of the local sports team, it is clear the Campus Cafe serves it community in more ways than just good food. read more

Busy place that definitely caters to its regulars first, but fantastic food and worth the wait for a table!!! Great waitresses too, they're holding the place down in all the chaos! Food came out quickly. Definitely try the cinnamon roll--it's the size of a small cake! read more

Very tasty, it could have been hotter. It's always disappointing to get a meal and it is just warm. Wait staff was very good.

Prices are incredible... Food is excellent... If you're passing through make sure you stop here

Spent a week in Alamosa and this was hands down the best restaurant. The place is small and hidden away but it was packed everytime we went. Food was ridiculously inexpensive. They don't seat you, so be prepared to sit with strangers and make new friends. Our party had chile and eggs, biscuits and gravy (Half order) and crepes. We split the sweet roll. The sweet roll is a must have, but is fairly hidden on the menu. It was too large even for our group of 3 to finish. Wish the hours were longer as we would have had more meals here. read more

Campus Cafe is a MUST when visiting Alamosa for the most incredible green and red chili.

Great food. Great prices and friendly staff. The owner many times comes to talk with us.

20 years ago Campus Cafe served the best plate of biscuits and gravy in the nation. Mentioned in a book even. Now they are standard IHOP, Denny's, Village Inn ick. Unimpressed all around with the whole meal from the rubbery side of bacon to the buttery centric cinnamon roll to the French toast. However I like supporting local businesses. It has been a standard in town for years and provided food to college students galore. They support the college and high school sports. Glad they are still in business. Try it. You'll be glad you did. read more

We came across this diner while traveling through. The food was amazing. We have 6 in our party and we ate for under $40. That doesn't happen these days! I highly recommend this diner. The staff was so nice and the food was fresh and hot. read more

The food is abysmal to say the least, and to have waited so long I hoped for better. The IHOP may be more expensive, but at least when the food is not eaten, they don't charge you. read more

Cinnamon rolls and huevos rancheros with Half green/half red are delicious!!!! This place is a local staple... especially if you're in college it's walking distance from Adams State university... read more

Great morning breakfast culture here! Always filled with locals- and the breakfasts burritos are amazing!

Packed and popular. Solid breakfast. Not necessarily spectacular but satisfying. Once seated, wait for my food was long. I ordered the huevos rancheros. I would do so again! read more

This review is based on service only. Attempted to eat here today. It's a seat yourself type of place which is fine. But it was hard to tell if people were just getting there and sat at a dirty table or if they were about to leave. Never got a chance to sit. We left after 10 minutes of observing the confusion. Maybe try a different process? read more

All the stars! Great little local spot. Appreciate that they highlight their history and community. The place was literally standing room only. Customers willingly queued up for breakfast in a Sunday morning. Prices are surprisingly low. Standard American fare with a few green chiles thrown in on the menu. Pancakes will melt in your mouth. Bacon was heavenly. Two wait staff handled the small restaurant with the precision of air traffic control. If you're in town, it is a definite "yes." read more

The best breakfast spot in town and in my top 2 restaurants in town as well. You may have to wait a bit for a table if you come during a peak time, but it's truly worth it. There are a mix of all types of town folks here, from young to old and everyone is friendly. Service is actually fairly quick for as many people as they serve on a daily basis. There are so many homemade items on the menu, it's like eating from home, but better since you don't do any of the work preparing it. Must orders: cinnamon roll, breakfast burrito, anything with green chile on top (hashbrowns?) read more

Great service, good food, very reasonable prices. We've been on the road for four months and this was the best we've found. They open early (6 am) and soon fills with locals. read more

So so yummy! We stop whenever we are passing through! Great cinnamon rolls, too! Don't miss it!

We came in to eat on a Sunday morning. You need to get there early or else you will be waiting awhile. You seat yourself so you are on the honor system. We ordered the GIANT cinnamon roll that was delicious (3 people ate off of it). We ordered the Spanish omelette and a Cheese omelette. Service was friendly and helpful. We will be back to try more things off the menu. read more

Campus Cafe - Ham and eggs breakfast with some French toast and green chili - American Near Me - Alamosa, Colorado

Amazing green chili!!! So delish on anything!!! Had eggs smothered in green chili sauce with hash browns and I'm a salsa girl, let me tell u, I will drive across state again for this! read more

I would basically describe this place as the bees knees of breakfast places. The smothered green chili burrito is super rad. When it comes to the campus tho, the Cinnamon Rolls are the most tubular. They are the size of a child's head, served warm and fresh, and topped with buttermilk butter that melts into the bread. read more

Lousy experience, sad to say. As the saying goes you get what you pay for and that's true here. Prices are pretty low, but the food was bland and portions not that amazing. Service wasn't too bad, but I did go at a non-peak time so the staff were not too overwhelmed. To start off, this is ostensibly a traditional breakfast place. I ordered a coffee when I arrived and what I got was darkened water. I don't know how they do it but they have the darkest, weakest coffee ever. It took about 4-5 packets of half & half to lighten it up and then when I tasted it, it was barely stronger than water. Honestly, if you overbrew coffee it should be dark and have a very strong taste but somehow this was SO watery. I took a couple of sips and didn't even bother to finish it. For my meal, I tried the biscuits and gravy, which comes with hash browns. The hash browns were actually cooked very well. Crispy and slightly browned as they should be. That was probably the only good thing about them because they were completely bland. I had to add salt to everything to get any flavor. The biscuits were not huge and probably frozen. The gravy had some bits of sausage in it but not much. Again, bland flavor. My wife ordered a scramble with green chili. That also comes with hash browns and toast. Except they forgot the toast. And her green chili was cold. Also, while we were waiting for our food, which wasn't too long, I kept hearing a beeping noise from the kitchen area which sounded oddly familiar. Ince I intentionally listened for it, I recognized it as the sound of a microwave. Which can only mean that they probably don't even make the food fresh but re-heat a lot of it. I won't be back to this place. Such a disappointing meal, I even considered going to McDonalds afterwards just to get some food that I know would have been more satisfying than this meal. read more

We ate at this cafe about 25 years ago and this cafe is still amazing! The service was good and the food was great! You can tell how good an eating establishment is when there is a long of people waiting to eat. I would recommend this little cafe to all who are hungry! read more

2nd time being here and the food was cold and waited for over 2hrs. People don't consider people sitting waiting for table and try to cut in front of you. Had to hurry up and jump in front of them for a table and for a shitty table in back corner. Food was also undercooked. Definitely won't be back here ever. read more

I really should be giving this place two ratings; 5 stars and 1. We stayed in Alamosa and went here for breakfast twice. The first time everything was perfect. That's why we went there second time on Monday morning. And it was closed despite everything telling us that it should have been opened. So, a great spot for breakfast but unreliable. read more

i love this place Giant Cinnamon rolls fresh baked bread good old fashioned breakfast Spanish style and Americano omelettes French toast pancakes 2 and 3 egg breakfasts with choice of meat huevos rancheros smothered burrito green and red chili out of this world cappuccino is my fave with bacon tomato swiss omlet with melted cheese hash browns and don't forget that thick cut fresh home baked bread Mmm always busy so you may stand in line but it's well worth the wait a bit noisy but I feel like your having breakfast with the Valley once big family Must enjoy the burgers also Everything is good And I mean that A must eat at dinner while visiting Alamosa Us locals already love this place Go early cause you cant have dinner here they close after lunch Best Mom and Pop joint in Alamosa read more

Holy buckets, this place is gooood. I got a half order of huevos rancheros (cost less than a coffee at you-know-where) and it filled an entire plate. And the cinnamon roll, oh LOOOOORD. It was the perfect size for FIVE of us. And I walked away from that breakfast plotting when I could come back for another cinnamon roll. Or how I could have a Campus Cafe Cinnamon Roll Wedding Cake. Yum. read more

I didn't know this place was so iconic, and I'm glad I was able to try it. Spotted this place heading out of Safeway across the street after not wanting anything small and overpriced from Starbucks. So happy I was able to make it in! First of all, I was surprised at the prices. Maybe I'm just used to overrated brunchy places, but most plates here were $5-$6. At a local establishment? I thought I was back in 2010. It's honestly refreshing to see mom and pop shop's with a "what you see is what you get attitude" and no fluff. Not only was it cheap, it was incredibly good. I had a breakfast sandwich with hash, (added sausage because I'm a meat-lover). It was served on wheat bread, and honestly based on assumptions, I thought it would be like hostess bread -- but it was incredibly thick. It was so big, I had to take the rest on the road. My partner had the steak and eggs and thought it was really good as well. The only downside is that there wasn't a lot of seating. The middle section was arranged like an elementary lunchroom. I'll probably regret not getting cinnamon roll that's all over Yelp, but I'll have to try it next time! read more

We were staying in Alamosa to attend a train event in Antonito Colorado. After a couple of days, we decided to look for a decent breakfast place. The Campus Cafe came highly recommended by another local business. We decided to give them a try. This is a small restaurant. Seating is tight, but everyone is super friendly. Customers and wait staff treat you like you have lived here all your life. Conversations start easy, and everyone visits over their meal. We found the food excellent! All home cooked! Our orders arrived quickly, and were done to perfection! The next time we visit Alamosa, we will definitely be stopping here again! read more

We were on our way to a wedding in South Fork, CO when we decided to stop and eat supper. This place was just off the road so that was convenient for us. The staff were friendly enough. I'm from NM, and while I knew better while in Colorado, I ordered a combination plate anyway - mostly from habit. I should have ordered a burger instead. The food was "heavy" on the stomach. I had problems the rest of the day/evening. read more
