    Chili cheese fries
    Miranda E.

    I was hoping that we'd love this place because we pass it often when we hike in the mountains. Unfortunately, it didn't live up to our dreams and expectations. We each got a cheeseburger and shared a strawberry shake and chili cheese fry, and my boyfriend tried the chili cheese dog. The burgers were decent, but the bread they were on couldn't withstand the liquid and it was a bit soggy, even though we ate our food right away. The fries were great, but they were about what you'd expect from fast food chili cheese fries. The shake was just okay. It was like a cold Nesquik strawberry milk. My boyfriend ate the dog with no complaints so I'm assuming that was okay as well. We both agreed that we would eat there again if we were starving, but it's probably better to just wait until you get to town.

    Hamburgers are great! Perfect drive - through snack or meal. I had the plain cheeseburger, my son had the BBQ Bacon Cheeseburger with grilled onions. Both were yummy!

    The burgers are on point. You can tell the patty is made with fresh meat. The pork, & potato burrito is very tasty also.

    Their smothered breakfast burritos are pretty good. A little gringo (not hot enough) for me but tasty and reasonably priced.

    We came here for brunch before heading to the hot springs and it was a great stop…read more I got the Main Street Benedict, super yummy! The only thing I didn't like as much was the hashbrowns, they were just okay. I also ordered the jalapeño bread French toast (recommended by our server). I love jalapeño flavor, but I remember thinking it sounded kind of weird for French toast... but I'm glad I tried it because it was so good. They make their breads in-house and I would definitely get that again. I also tried some of my friend's banana bread and that was really delicious too. Didn't get a chance to try these since we had to get to the hot springs soon so thought it's too much food to finish in time, but they had a French toast flight and a Benedict flight, which I've never seen before. Pretty cool, I love anything where you can try multiple flavors. Overall, would reccomend this brunch spot in Idaho Springs. Would come back!

She was friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience even more enjoyable. I ordered the Reuben (currently $18.50) with a cup of their green chili soup ($6.00). The Reuben was outstanding--perfectly grilled with a crispy rye, flavorful corned beef, and just the right balance of Swiss, sauerkraut, and dressing. The green chili soup was rich, comforting, and packed with great Colorado flavor. My wife built her own burger and upgraded to the house salad instead of fries. Everything was fresh, cooked exactly as ordered, and delicious. This has become one of our must-stop restaurants whenever we're headed to Vail. Great food, great service, and a welcoming atmosphere every time. Highly recommended--we'll definitely be back!

There was also a live guitar performance that added a nice touch to the overall vibe. Both the indoor and outdoor seating areas are great options.

Our server was very friendly and welcoming, and overall we had a great experience and would happily come back.

    Not so hidden gem!…read more We finished a hike in Evergreen and headed for brunch at Blackbird cafe. It was about 10am and we waited for an outside seat for about 20 minutes. They were busy but churning tables in and out. Limited parking is available in front but we did what most were doing, parked on the side of the road across from the restaurant. It was great to see how young people (teenagers and early 20 years olds) were working at this local spot. They were also doing an amazing job being attentive. We got the tea of the Tillman drink to soothe our thirst after a hike and the summer heat. It was tart but refreshing. I have never had a drink like it before. I highly recommend trying it. We ordered chilaquiles, breakfast burrito, and the mushroom omelette. Everyone enjoyed their dishes and came away full! If you're in the area around breakfast or lunch time, stop in. They have deserts and hand pies to-go. We didn't try them but they looked delicious.
