My daughter and I went out for breakfast together. Joe's was the destination. The parking lot was full, but there was still room. We were greeted and seated when we came in. After checking the menu, I decided on the bacon and eggs. It came with hash browns and toast, I chose sourdough. I had coffee, of course. I do not function without an appropriate level of caffeine for the day. My eggs were done to my liking and everything was hot and delicious. My daughter had eggs and bacon, but she opted for the 2 pancakes instead of toast. She enjoyed a glass of apple juice with her breakfast. The service was great! My coffee was kept filled and we were checked on regularly. We will most definitely be back. read more

Joe's Cafe - Bacon & Eggs with coffee - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Wheat Ridge, Colorado

I live about 2 blocks away from Joe's Cafe and have driven past it MANY MANY times. Luckily, while out one day, I decided "why not let's check this place out that's a few minutes walk away from my house". I'm glad I did! Upon walking in, you can tell right away that this is a neighborhood breakfast spot where the workers knew a few tables by name while making conversation. I love that! The atmosphere here is peak if a cozy neighborhood feel is what you are looking for. It is also right next to Anderson Park I which is perfect for walking around to digest after eating. The food is pretty good. I enjoyed my Joe's Burrito a lot. It was cooked very well and the green chile was so good. I also added some grilled jalapeños on the side that really just made it perfect. The country skillet was a bit underwhelming. I love onions. I can never have enough of them and I thought there were way too many onions. Prices here are very reasonable as well. I look forward to walking over to Joe's and getting my fix of neighborhood soon! read more

Classic dinner but a bit more expensive than the typical hole in the wall diner food. Nice servers and seating is plenty. Food comes out reasonable with good portions. Nothing amazing, but a solid spot overall. read more

Was served moldy sourdough. Anything with mold is outrageous and you think some sort of comp of our meal but cashier did not care at all. Not an ounce of remorse. Who knows what else is moldy in that kitchen . Completely lost my appetite. read more

Joe's Cafe is your stereotypical divey breakfast joint. The inside looks like your grandmas house. Don't even think about asking for a non-dairy milk option for your coffee. They have packaged half & half and sweet n' low, and standard sugar for your enjoyment. I ordered the 2x2x2 with the apple oatmeal pancakes. All the food was yummy, the apple oatmeal pancakes were quite large and heavy, very filling. They have standard store syrup and no maple syrup available. Coffee was coffee. Service was pretty good. I must comment on the odd bathroom setup with two toilets but no doors to the stalls but I think the main door locked for privacy. I'd come back after a night out drinking. Definitely a great spot for a hungover breakfast. read more

Used to p be this lil place . Today though the pancakes seemed to be microwave ones the waitress most unfriendly not surprised she wrote our order wrong or didnt care to engage to get the order right . Will find a new spot to eat read more

It breaks my heart to write a review like this, for a place that has been around for so long like Joe's. The food I had was fairly bland and unremarkable, and $16 for a breakfast entree is frankly insulting, considering other breakfast spots in the area (Breadwinners, McCoys) do so much more for that same or lower price point. There was also a $2 fee tacked onto my bill for paying with a credit card that was not mentioned anywhere. The people working here seemed nice enough, but everything else left a bad taste in my mouth. read more

Joe's is a nice breakfast spot. I liked sitting at the counter since I was dining alone. I got served pretty fast, and the coffee was flowing. I had a chicken fried steak skillet. I wish it had more chicken fried steak. All in all it was ok. read more

Perfect in every way. Great chicken fried steak and eggs. Delicious biscuits and gravy. Pancakes were very good. The staff were very nice and friendly. Food comes out really quick. I will definitely be back again read more

Service server was rude and never checked on us. All tables dirty and only a few people were there. Too pricey, food was awful. I'm never going back again. Spent over $40. Going back to Swiss Chalet for $28 way better quality food read more

I recently visited a café that caught my attention with its advertisements boasting incredibly low prices ($) Intrigued, I decided to check it out, only to find that the actual prices were significantly higher than what was advertised, up to over $5 a plate. The ambiance was fine and a friendly staff. However, the misleading pricing left a sour taste. When the bill came, I was taken aback by the discrepancy, over $40 for two people. It felt like a bait-and-switch tactic that tarnished my experience. While the quality of the food and drink was decent, it didn't justify the inflated prices. I appreciate cafés that offer good value, but this one left me feeling frustrated and misled. I can't recommend it unless they revise their pricing transparency-which they said to me upon paying that they would fix on yelp/facebook. If you decide to go, be prepared for a surprise at checkout! read more

Joe's Cafe - Try the Cinnamon Roll - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Wheat Ridge, Colorado

Selected this diner because it was right by Drum City Guitarland, and has positive reviews. Went with Mom and son, and we were happy with our meal. Mom and I enjoyed our crispy but not over-breaded, tender chicken fried steaks. Son said the soup of the day and burger were great. The location is cute, clean, and nostalgic. Our server was excellent. read more

It pains me this place has gone down so much, honestly. My husband and his family have frequented this place for decades, but in the last year+ it's taken a nose dive. We decided to come in for breakfast with our kids, we ordered: *A blueberry pancake *2 strips of bacon/2eggs/hashbrowns *4 eggs/ a hamburger patty/hashbrowns *Sausage skillet *Breakfast burrito with bacon and sausage (to go). Their prices have definitely skyrocketed, and I know- inflation is hitting everyone hard but that said, tell me why a burger patty is $8... just the patty. Not a burger. Just the patty. The food is typical diner food- which in most situations has the potential to be great, but here- not so much anymore. The burger patty was hard as a brick, trying to cut through it with a fork will definitely leave an impression from the fork on your finger, interesting. Eggs were waaayyyy overcooked- dry, rubbery, it's quite the magic trick to be able to stab into a scrambled egg and the entire thing lifts off of the plate in a single motion. Would have been nice to know they are now charging a "$4.95 admin fee" when you pay with a card as opposed to cash... perhaps put a sign up to let people know ahead of time? Once it was all said and done, between the food, tip and "admin fee", we paid close to $90 for a family of 4 to eat breakfast and take one burrito to go. Bit excessive for a diner in my opinion. Sadly, as much as we used to love this place- things have just gone too far downhill for our liking. Which really sucks because it was nice having a homey-diner so close by with decent food. McCoys it is from here on out I guess. The only saving grace I guess is the waiter was polite/attentive/courteous. read more

First time there great breakfast. When I come back to Denver we will go back. Great customer service!!!

Had amazing meal today of Chicken fried Steak and eggs, hash browns and pancakes. Plates were clean as every bite was better than the one before. All parts of the meal were cooked perfectly. Also, staff were very friendly and seemed happy - which made the experience even better. Will for sure return!!! read more

Great food. Friendly staff. Very casual but has everything you need in a diner breakfast.

When you walk in everyone looks at you because you aren't a regular. Service was good. Coffee good. I got the relleno breakfast. It was good but the green chili didn't have a lot of flavor. We also got the Apple oatmeal pancakes combo the pancakes were very good. Also we had Joes breakfast burrito. It wasn't bad but boring. Wouldn't have it again. read more

This is a great local restaurant. It is our go to place for breakfast. The staff is always friendly and welcoming. Service is great.

Some of the best service around the Denver metro area. The staff is always smiling and friendly. The food comes out 5-10 minutes after you order it and always tastes great. My boyfriend and I love coming here!! read more

Well I was excited to find a new dinner to frequent, but I don't know. I've never been to prison, but I think this is what the food would be like. I got the special, & it was anything but. The portions were sad, the potatoes & the (factory made) Texas toast were the highlights. The meat tasted old, the corn tasted like it came from a can that had been opened a few days ago, & all of it was covered in the blandest brown gravy you have ever had. All this for $14.60, I wanted to tip big, but just couldn't! The staff was great, friendly, & rather attractive. I want to try their breakfast, but I've been hurt before & I thinking need some time. read more

I came in while on a business trip . I sat at the bar because it was just me dining . the food was not anything special . Great coffee .What I'm upset about is the waitress ripped me off for $10 bucks . The food came to $8.90 cents . I gave her a $20.00 bill . I received $1.10 from her . I thought wow did I miss something here . I was tired and had to rush out . I didn't realize she gave me the wrong change until I was out the door . I even tipped her 4 more since I'm not a bad tipper . I've waited tables for years . I know it's hard labor . Maybe she thought I gave her a $10 so I don't fuss about it and come back. lesson learned to stop paying in cash when I'm on the road. read more

Food was good, friendly staff, stopped due to the reviews and was happy that we did. It was busy and we were served right away

Some of the best breakfast in Wheat Ridge. Got the breakfast burrito and it was huge and smothered and perfect!

I wanted to try this place for sometime. I love little hole in the wall greasy spoon diners. Far too much character to pass up, right down to my duct taped booth seat. Love it! I initially had a some pricing sticker shock at first, but the portion size and presentation make up for it. HUGE PORTIONS! It was all delicious! If you haven't discovered this little gem and prefer to give local business owners your money over the chain restaurants then this will fit the bill. Give them a try, you wont be disappointed. Side note- Come early if you don't want to stand in line. It's popular. read more

Stumbled on this place after coming from the airport. Starving!! A young lady came by to clean the table and said someone would be by to take our order. After waiting 18 min This young waiter guy kept passing our table but did not come by to take our order aswell as the two other waitresses,Instead, they sat a table of 4 ppl and took their order !! Wow!! The ambiance is a little hole in the wall. It makes me wonder if this place may be racist and would not recommend this place!! read more

Food was amazing . I had the Italian sausage sandwich and it was not disappointing. I've had the breakfast here as well and the green chile is great . All around great spot . The staff have all been kind and friendly. Support small businesses like this one it's well worth it . read more

I stopped at Joe's on a Friday morning and was not disappointed. The portions are huge and the food comes out hot and fresh. The cafe has a home-style feel and you're treated like family. We ordered the French Toast Combo and Joe's Favorite Skillet. Both came out quickly and were full of flavor. My french toast was cooked perfectly, crispy on the edges and soft and chewy in the middle which paired perfectly with some maple syrup. The skillet was hot and savory, and both had way more food than expected! If you're in the area, Joe's is a great place for a quality, home-cooked meal. read more
