My boyfriend and I came back to The Hungry Goat because it was just THAT good the first time--and once again, it did not disappoint! We had some drinks, crab legs, and the bolognese, and everything was absolutely delicious. We also got to sit right by the waterfall, which made the whole experience even better. We seriously love this spot! We had the pleasure of talking with our server Brian, who was absolutely amazing and made the experience even more fun. We may or may not have discussed the possibility of getting some REAL goats at The Hungry Goat... So Brian, we're still waiting!! Between the food, drinks, atmosphere, waterfall view, and amazing service, this place is easily a 10/10. Definitely a must-visit! We'll absolutely be back again! read more

I assume this is one of the better spots for a before red rocks meal but the food and drinks really missed the mark. We tried three cocktails and two were undrinkable. We were excited to try them because they said they made their own juice, which I believe, but it may have gone sour or something. The goat cheese appetizer was not for me, it was just hot liquidy cheese. Maybe it would be better in the winter. The salmon was decent but not what I expected. It was almost prepared like an Asian dish. However the service was awesome. The ambiance is cute but I wouldn't recommend it for a super hot day because the restaurant is indoor/outdoor read more

Hungry Goat Scratch Kitchen & Wine Bar - Salmon - Wine Bars Near Me - Morrison, Colorado

The little town of Morrison consists mainly of a few restaurants and bars and a couple of gift shops. I am sure they all subsist off the Red Rocks crowd. This restaurant is absolutely excellent. I would come here regardless of whether I was seeing a concert or not. The attention to detail, from the decor, to the drinks, to the food, to the service, is darn near perfect. We tried a mocktail and a cocktail, both cucumber-based. They were basically slightly different versions of the same drink and they were both wonderful and very refreshing. This place absolutely hits home runs with their cheese and charcuterie boards. They are stunningly beautiful. We went with two meats and two cheeses and our server provided excellent recommendations. We probably didn't need to have any more food other than the cheese and meat board but we decided to split a filet mignon and it was excellent. The food, drinks, decor, and service were all top-notch. I would return here again and again. I would eat and drink my way through the whole menu like a hungry goat, I guess. read more

4.5 stars and the best patio in Morrison. The Hungry Goat is one of my favorite places to stop in for a bite near Red Rocks. First off, each time I've been here the service has been excellent. There's both indoor and outdoor seating, with the outdoor patio in the summer being absolutely lovely with the sound of the running water from their mini waterfall and stream. Goats galore! It's fun trying to spot them all around the restaurant. The food is very good and I've enjoyed everything I've had here. The menu is a bit of a mosh, but has something for everyone. The prices are just a bit steep for this to be somewhere I'd visit regularly. Food: - Caesar salad - very good and served like a wedge with full strips of romaine, actual anchovies, croutons, and pickled onions (unusual but I LOVE pickled onions and they're such a bright, refreshing addition). 1/2 size is a generous portion. - Cheeseburger with truffle fries and bacon - solid burger, tasty meat, great truffle fries. IMO not worth $26, but a good portion, tasty burger I'd happily order again - campfire old fashioned - good drink, but the ice really dilutes it (prefer getting a regular oldy with the single block of ice) - espresso martini - was told this was the best around and I have to admit, it was one of the best I've had. Love that they brew their espresso fresh and shake it up with frangelico. Absolutely delicious. We've also had the buffalo cauliflower, calamari, shrimp and grits, and lots of other stuff they've rotated on the menu. All in all, my favorite stop in Morrison! read more

Not a great first impression...We came on the Fourth of July, so we knew it would be busy, and we were totally okay with that. But after we sat down, it took over 10 minutes to even get waters, so we just went to the bar ourselves. We were planning to eat here, but the menu changed our minds. A basic burger with fries was around $24, and nothing about it really stood out for the price. We ended up just getting a drink and eating somewhere else. Maybe it was just an off day, but for our first visit, it didn't quite live up to the hype. read more

My family and I enjoyed delicious food and had a great time here. We were able to get seated right away on a Wednesday afternoon. Our server was very knowledgeable about the menu and kindly answered our questions about various dishes. Food came out fast, and several staff members passed by to ask us how everything was tasting. I started off with a strawberry lemonade and it was incredibly refreshing on a hot day. The charcuterie was delicious and we enjoyed every bit of it. Fruits were sweet and the pickled vegetables were especially good. Grilled cheese and tomato soup were very good, although I've had better elsewhere - Beechers in Seattle and tomato soup in Iceland, but I know that's not a fair comparison. For dessert, we ordered bread pudding, it was yummy and the perfect end to our meal. The ambience was nice and not too loud inside. Wish I was local, so I can dine here more often. Support your local business. read more

Host was very kind, we asked to change seating locations because we felt crowded in the first table and she happily moved us to be closer to the outdoor fountain they have, which is beautiful to look at as you wait. Our waitress was also great at giving food recommendations. She suggested locations to visit that she discovered throughout her time in Denver and gave tips on how to prepare for our first time at red rocks. We started with the baked goat cheese dip and the server immediately confirmed that it was a good choice for an app. We also got the verlasso salmon and the filet, which was the special. EVERYTHING WAS DELICIOUS. We were very pleased with our whole experience and would recommend to come try their food! read more

OMG!! This restaurant right outside of red rocks is such a hidden gem! Everything is made fresh from scratch and all organic!! The server was soo sweet and funny. She gave us a whole breakdown of the menu and how they make everything fresh daily, she was joking around with us and always made sure our drinks stayed filled. The inside and outside were both sooo cute in their own ways. The inside of the restaurant felt like you were at your grandmothers house. The outside was so relaxing with the sound of the running waterfall. We all LOVED our meals and will be telling any and everyone who goes to red rocks that they HAVE to stop here when they're in the area. read more

Oh. My. Gourd. YES! The quality of the food is extraordinary, clearly made from scratch, skill and love. Vegan burger is quinoa and beet (vegan when ordered with sourdough - which was chewy and crunchy toasted to perfection). The pickled onions, heirloom tomatoes and mixed green toppings could be a salad in and of itself. Dredged fries are not to be missed. Possibly my best meal of 2026. Ricky D is a kind, adept and charming waiter who made the experience all the better amid a spacious outdoor patio with a water feature. Hungry Goat makes for an exceptional and memorable experience! read more

Hungry Goat Scratch Kitchen & Wine Bar - Majestic perfection in every bite. Veggie burger with all the fixins. - Wine Bars Near Me - Morrison, Colorado

We have eaten here a few times, most recently a week or so ago, with friends before a concert at red rocks. Online, you can enter the number in your party, and enter the virtual queue, which we did. Our table for four was ready when we arrived, and we were seated right away. Our server was great, good energy, and made multiple recommendations on the menu, including what may have recently changed, or been updated, on the menu. He highly recommended the strawberry margarita, noted that it wasn't sweet, and that they make all of their syrups, flavoring etc. in house, and this was a standout newer addition. He was right - it was delicious, refreshing for a hot summer day, and best of all, not overly sweet. For dinner, I had the filet, which came with a generous portion of super creamy, delicious mashed potatoes, asparagus, and the most wonderfully flavorful au jus. My steak was perfectly cooked the way I like it (medium rare). The dessert, a 'creme brûlée' was not at all your typical creme brûlée, and honestly, for me, fell a bit flat. I think it was made with some type of goat cheese, didn't have the lovely custardy/smooth consistency, volume, or depth. The fresh fruit on top was nice, but I only had a bite or so of this dessert we shared. Maybe call it something else, or alternatively, make sure when people order it they know it's non-traditional creme brûlée. Otherwise, wonderful meal, with great friends and we will absolutely be back! read more

Hungry Goat Scratch Kitchen & Wine Bar - Wagyu Reuben with truffle fries (ordered ranch on the side for $1 extra) - Wine Bars Near Me - Morrison, Colorado

Had food here twice, consecutively. Came here in conifer last week and loved the food. Came in here as a group with kids, their menu is just so good. There are non meat options too which you'll devour. I loved their salmon specifically. The lamb chops were good as well. I think I enjoyed just about everything that I ordered. There was a lavender pear martini that I ordered with gin as it doesn't come with alcohol, that was a great drink I think! That said, the people here are so very sweet to cater the changes, our kids were just as happy as we were! read more

Thursday 1pm Party of 4 adults and 3 kiddos. After walking around Red Rock Theater for a bit and taking in the sights we decided to stop in for lunch. So glad we did! Walked in and we were seated within 5 minutes. Our host let us know he was not the waiter and would bring us water or other drinks we would like and our waiter would be with us shortly. Fabulous lunch menu along with a Kids menu that the kiddos could color on which is always a plus. I ordered the half Apple Cheese Chive salad and it was fantastic. I could have eaten the full salad. When I ordered it the server asked, "Have you had this salad here before?" To which I answered no. He shared that the salad does not come with lettuce, it comes just as it says on the menu: apples, cheese, chives. Okay. It sounds delicious to me. Now I want to create this at home! Also ordered at our table: Grilled Cheese and tomato soup and Steak Frites. All were given two thumbs up! We would definitely come back here when in the area. read more

Wow! What an experience. Began walking near Hungry Goat and you start with a smell senses being aroused to come closer. We've never eaten at the location that has changed themes/restaurants over time. Feels like a home that has been transformed into a restaurant. Main restaurant is quant and the outdoor seating where we were was great in the evening with the lighting and heaters deployed. Our food was fantastic! Had clams, calamari, and libations to start! Drinks were perfect and everything was presented beautifully. The Cioppino was spot on, guest also had salmon, the tenderloin and the pok pok chicken. Each dish had a unique theme and flavor palette. We couldn't leave without giving desert a try. The pumpkin moose was amazing as was the bread pudding which for us was white chocolate with raspberry. Service was great and would definitely return. read more

I haven't even left Hungry Goat & I'm still waiting on dessert. I had to write a review about how absolutely amazing, delicious, and beautiful this place is ASAP. From interior to outdoor the scenery is warm and inviting, little goats around will make you smile and little Easter eggs to find while eating dinner Also how our host made sure seats were dry & clean due to rainstorms near by & moving things to accommodate. Very kind, also have a table near by where they gave blankets to people who were cold!? HOW CRAZY IMPRESSIVE IS THAT! Finally for food, bolognese and shrimp & grits 10/10! Delicious, perfect amount if you're not looking for leftovers & want to be full but not bloated & tired!!! Our server did an amazing job at wine pairings with our chosen meals which elevated the dinner even more. I'll stop babbling, if you're questioning coming - COME. read more

Been waiting to try Hungry Goat for months...very disappointing! Let me say the hostess was so friendly, the food was delicious! Our waiter John and the service was terrible...we saw John 4 times during our entire meal. To take our drink order, to take our food order, to refill my husband's water ( with a comment " must be a hole in that glass" NO IT was a 90 degree day outside!) and after several minutes, ( watching John having a conversation with 2 young ladies across the room) and asking a busser to get John's attention, John finally arrived with our bill! This kind of service is not acceptable in an establishment that charges over $200 for a meal of 4 adults!!! read more

The evening started off really promising- the ambiance was perfect, we loved the patio, the waiter was attentive, the oysters were great, drinks were ok, and the rest of the food was really tasty. Unfortunately after we got our food we did not see the waiter again. He basically disappeared once he took our order. He never came back to check on us, we never got offered more water or asked if we wanted another drink (spoiler- we did), and then we had to sit and wait over 20 minutes after we were done eating before he FINALLY came around to bring us the bill. Between us and our friends the bill was over $300. It was super disappointing to spend that much money for horrible service, and we probably won't bother trying it again. read more

Hungry Goat was great. The "scratch" in their name does some heavy lifting, as their underlying philosophy is to have almost everything on the menu whipped up right on premises (from scratch...get it?). The setting is pleasant, with a nice (albeit cramped) dining room and a lovely patio with some cover from the sun. And service was excellent, very friendly and attentive. I had a mocktail special, a watermelon and lemonade concoction (both made on site!) that was super refreshing. For entrees, the steak frites were calling. Each part of the dish was well executed. The salad had a subtle zest from a dressing that didn't drench the plate; the fries were crispy and full of flavor; and the steak was the right temperature and came in a balanced sauce. The portion left a lot to be desired; for $24 (as of August 2025), it felt like a half portion of hanger steak, and it wasn't the most filling entree. Maybe we ordered wrong, but other than the amount of food, everything else about the meal was excellent. read more

Really enjoyed this adorable little spot in downtown Morrison! We had gone hiking and needed some food before heading to a show at Red Rocks. Hungry Goat was the perfect place to stop! The drinks were really good. I had their specialty old fashioned and was impressed. My wife had a glass of the sparkling rose and it was pretty good. The cheese and charcuterie board was really diverse and well put together with accompaniments. My wife enjoyed the chicken and I really liked the quinoa dish. The s'mores dessert looked amazing! Next time, I'll try it. The patio looked so fun, but it was raining when we went. There's a really cool waterfall feature that made a nice sounds as we ate. The service was perfect, efficient and friendly. I'll be back! read more

We stopped here on a Saturday early afternoon after a ride at Lair o the Bear. Parking is a bit difficult to find. You utilized the town parking (paid) outside of a handful of spots at the restaurant. We sat outside which didn't have much air flow but was a nice area. There was a ceiling fan - we asked them to turn it up but they did not. We also asked the server to leave the water bottle at the table versus filling our glasses, since we were thirsty and were going through it quickly. He said that he can't leave it because then they have to wash them between groups but that he would be sure to keep the glasses full. He did not... The brunch menu was the offering at the time. One friend had the omelette. It had bacon, peppers, onion and it was huge and looked delicious-if you like omelettes. It came with some home fries and small side salad of just greens. Another had the veg-quinoa burger and said it was good. Another had the burger and said it was decent. Another had the French toast and did not think it was worth getting I ordered the grilled avocado salad and added chicken. The amount of greens in my salad was not much more than my friends side that came with his omelette and the salad was $16 with another $10 for the chicken. I am not sure if there would have been more greens if there wasn't chicken. Either way, it had good flavor and the chicken did as well but not for $26. read more

We popped in here early before a concert at Red Rocks. The service was prompt, and the atmosphere was casual. We sat outside on the patio beside a beautiful water fall and garden. Had a delicious Chech style Pilsner to cool down followed by an excellent GSM paired with Steak au Poivre. That steak was a perfectly crafted dish. The meat was cooked perfectly and served atop creamy mashed potatoes and a green peppercorn sauce, finished with crispy fried onions on top. Highly recommended. read more

Had been wanting to try this place every time we drive through Morrison -- glad we finally stopped. What I found was a cool place that makes everything in house "scratch." Exceptional wine list too! Yes the name says it all --Scratch and wine - perfect. Inside the place is inviting with rock walls and open aired dining --perfect for a spring day, especially with all the blooming fruit trees nearby. Service was great. Shawn took care of us with solid recommendations and prompt service. The charcutier board was wonderful - meats and cheeses- along with some pickled items and lots of fresh fruit. The grilled cheese sandwich was perfectly grilled. Shrimp and grits were a hit. Finished with the beignets covered in confectioner's sugar that melted in our mouths and topped with hot chocolate and fresh strawberries. What a satisfying meal.

Wow, this is a beautiful brunch spot nestled in the Red Rocks area downtown. The outdoor patio dining is definitely the preferred choice to absorb the beautiful nature. We didn't make any reservation. There were three of us and just walked in around 11:15 AM on a bustling Saturday. We were happy to be immediately seated. The waitress explained the meaning of a Scratch kitchen wherein every ingredient is made from scratch. The Ginger Yuzu Lemonade was an excellent refreshment after the Red Rocks hike on a sunny day. Loved the Goat Cheese Dip and the Eggs Benedict with Ham. The potatoes served with the Eggs Benedict reminded me of home :) Totally recommend this place when you visit the Red Rocks. read more

Lovely vegan find and the quinoa salad was a work of art. Their fryer unfortunately was out of order so I was quite disappointed not to get the cauliflower Buffalo wings.

Our server was grumpy and not very friendly so that was a buzz-kill right off the hop. The seasonal watermelon lemonade mocktail was tasty but the buffalo cauliflower starter was way too spicy. I like spice and it was not enjoyable. Hopefully this was a one-off and it's normally better balanced. I had the quinoa salad as my main and it was pretty good. My husband had the burger which he said was fresh and believed the patty was made in house. Overall good, just not exceptional and I would probably give 4 stars for the food but had to deduct 1 star for crankypants server. Oh, and one of our items came up $2 higher than posted on the menu (and website) but she wouldn't adjust it. Cool. read more

Great place to grab a bite before catching a show at Red Rocks. Second time here, first review but the experience was the same...very good. This place doesn't take reservations for tables under 6 people but they do have a "join waitlist" on their website which we used with good success. There is plenty of seating with a large amount of it being outside or on the covered patio, bar seating is also available. The Hostess's were super friendly and sat us immediately. John our server was very attentive but not too much. I started with an Arnold Palmer w fresh squeezed lemonade and my wife had a Strawberry Marg. We decided to skip the appetizers and went right for the mains. I had the Steak Au Poivre, it was cooked exactly as I had asked, medium rare plus and I liked that they had it already sliced for me. The asparagus had a nice snap to them and the mashed (pureed) potato's were hot and creamy. The Brick Chicken was also very good, not dry and the plate was finished with tomato confit - Greek yogurt - English cucumber - mint and a crispy scallion rice cake, this was nice and refreshing for a warm afternoon. The one miss for us...and it was totally our fault...was the Chevre Custard Brulee. We were so keyed in on Brulee because its one of our favs that we overlooked the "Chevre" part of the name. It was goat cheese brulee, not what we were looking for and has a very.... interesting...taste. We will go back soon. read more
