We ate breakfast on our way to Frisco, CO I heard them say there were under new management which might have caused a delay in getting our breakfast. The meal was good and I knew they were trying. read more

We arrived late in the day, near closing time. Our waitress was bubbly and friendly and happy, which lighten the burden of the day that weighed on us. Our food arrived quickly and my son enjoyed his burrito. I had ordered my steak medium rare but it was well done. The waitress quickly returned to the kitchen and cooked the next one herself! She returned in a few minutes with a perfectly done brand new steak, with a smile on her face. This was one of my more memorable and enjoyable meals, due mostly to our waitress! Steak #2 was just fine, as was the baked potato and salad. H read more

Hickory House - Our meals at the Hickory House, Lamar, CO! - Barbeque Near Me - Lamar, Colorado

Food was good, not great. Overall, worth the money. I would eat here again. I think breakfast is their strong point.

I stopped in Lamar for the night and my hotel room was directly across the street so this was handy for dinner. I was greeted as soon as I walked in the door and since there was only 1 other customer I could seat myself wherever I wanted to. The waitress was friendly and she provided good customer service, asking how the food was, refills, etc. The place was pretty clean and kind of old school diner feel to it. I ordered the salad bar and a plain hamburger with raw onions on the side. The salad bar was kind of weak and I had to pick through the lettuce to get to the green leaves. The hamburger was just ok, the patty was kind of dry and overcooked. This is a place that is handy if you are passing by on hwy 287 or spending a night in Lamar. I would eat there again because the prices were reasonable, good service and the place is clean. I would not order the hamburger again but I would try something else from the menu. read more

Terrible service, asked 3 times for a refill on water and never got it. Slopper burger was basically a burger covered in tomato sauce.

If you are looking for good home meal, this is the place. WE have dinner and breakfast and the food and service was outstanding. For a home town feel, this is the place. For dinner, I have the BBQ brisket, which had an excellent smoky favor. For breakfast, we split the hand and cheese omelet. The serving was perfect for the two of us. The serve had a smile the made you fell welcome. If you are traveling through Lamar, CO and looking for a good home cook meal, stop by this place and enjoy a good meal. read more

On a windy trip through CO, our family stopped here for dinner. The waitress was busy, but served us well. The food was what you would expect from a small town diner. My daughter was thrilled with her chicken strips. They were hand battered, not that awful thick batter on fast food strips. My taco salad was large and very generous with the guacamole, but missing the refried beans I usually get with a taco salad. The burgers were average, but served with lots of fries. The food was served relatively quickly considering the business of the restaurant. Oh, and the cashier gave us a discount for staying at a local hotel.. Overall, super happy and well fed! read more

Not terrible but not great either. Had the mexican combo it was $18 after tax and tip. Food was mediocre. Food quality can be improved. read more

Kind of mixed about this. Some things were good - Staff were friendly, the restaurant was clean and cheery, my BLT was good, and prices were reasonable. There was a total miss with the service. We were shown to a table and asked if we could sit in a booth (there were only a few other customers in the restaurant at the time) She seemed hesitant but then said OK. Gave us menus and went away. And we waited. Others came in, orders taken, and we waited. Finally we were noticed, we gave out orders, and we waited. And waited. Others were served, we waited. Finally our food came and the check slapped down. Our waitress was very cordial, but no apology for the wait. My BLT was good and had a very generous amout of crisp bacon. The fries were OK. My husband had the Brisket sandwich which was good but a bit heavy on the sauce. I would eat here again as I don't think there are a lot of other options in town. The burgers looked good and the desserts looked tempting. It is basic small town diner food. Not a bad thing at all. read more

If you are in OTR truck driver and parked at the Pilot truckstop you need to check this place out.I had the roast beef and gravy it was a huge portion. The restaurant was clean and my waitress Tallia was extremely nice ,overall I would highly recommend this restaurant! read more

Not bad food or service...had the hamburger steak meal which was obviously fresh and hot when it was delivered in a timely manner and serving sizes were ample. However, their prices are high for a Mom & Pop...$18 with tax and tip...and I drank water. Therefore, I reduced what would have been 4 stars (above average) to 3 stars (average). read more

Ordered the steak. It wasn't very good. Way over cooked and just not very good quality meat. Waitress even had to apologize about it.

This is the second time we've eaten here, friendly staff and great food!!!! Great atmosphere, breakfast was amazing this is my second time here and it was perfect. Stop here, you'll love it. read more

I don't know what y'all expect... this is literally a roadside truck stop diner in a gas station... and it was exactly what I wanted. Chicken Fried Steak hit the spot on a cold night when I'd been driving for 10 hours. And I could only eat half of it! Finished off the whole piece of Texas Toast though... the Honey they give you for it certainly was life changing!!! Waitress and host were super friendly. Worth the $15 (food plus good tip)... Would recommend. read more

Great food. Very friendly staff. We have enjoyed eating here as a family and will return. The atmosphere is also conducive to conversation.

This is a non assuming little place on the main stretch of Lamar. I had a BLT and my husband had the beef chimichanga. Our waitress, Pam, was friendly and attentive. She brought our coffee immediately and took our order in less than five minutes. The coffee was good and fresh. My husband's meal was very good and my BLT had crisp, fresh lettuce and bacon cooked perfectly. The prices were reasonable. The cashier who checked us out was very sweet and friendly as well. All in all we will definitely be back when we come through Lamar again. read more

Very clever - they sell advertising space on their coffee mugs !! Good "home-style " food - friendly service and overall good value.

What an unbelievable food treat that was about as unexpected as it gets! Long story short, a group of friends from college had been storm chasing a supercell through the countryside outside Lamar CO. After getting hailed upon and seeing a tremendous lightning show, we manage to get the last vacancy at the Lamar Inn. The next morning before we ventured out storm chasing again we stopped for breakfast at the Hickory House. Two of the five people on the trip claim it was the best breakfast they have ever had. The food of choice were these amazing skillets full of hash browns, eggs, bacon, ham, and a last special ingredient of green chile. It basically captured everything I like in breakfast in one hot plate and then covered it in this foreign substance I had never had before (green chile) which only enhanced the flavor and added the perfect amount of heat to the meal. To quote my friend "It was just the best thing I've ever tasted" There were also rave reviews for the breakfast burrito (HUGE burrito) which was also covered in green chile. I don't know what they put in that green chile but I think it is save to say it was a little bit of heaven on earth. So if you ever find yourself in Lamar, CO, hit up the hickory house and you won't be let down. read more

For this place being the only breakfast dinner in town... it was shit. Stopped serving break fast at 11:00. So we had to order from the lunch menu. Turns out half of their menus they don't have the ingredients to prepaid the food. So we had to choose something out of the things they were able to make. Taste like dog shit. Should've gone to McDonald's. read more

We stopped here for breakfast while passing through Lamar on a road trip. You can tell this is a frequent stop for locals. The friendly staff and friendly locals make this place memorable. The food is good. Big portions, little price. Not a huge breakfast menu but all the basics were available. (Omelets, egg breakfast combos, biscuits and gravy, etc.) We will stop here again the next road trip to Texas. read more

We were taking the southern route through Kansas, but to get to that route we traveled through Lamar in which we stopped at the Hickory House. The staff was very friendly, but the food was so so. I had a club sandwich that was pretty good, but my girlfriend had the fried chicken in which you should avoid that. People are very nice in Lamar, so don't avoid this diner just the chicken. read more

We shared the Lamar Omlet and a short stack of pancakes. Portions were huge, more than enough for two. Coffee was good, sourdough toast was amazing. Omlet was excellent as well as the hashbrowns. Pancakes were huge. Great stop, we'llbbe back for the good food and great service. read more
