Mountain Home Cafe - Chilaquiles - American Near Me - Estes Park, Colorado

For many years I have so enjoyed Mountain Home Cafe. It's my favorite breakfast place in Estes. My favorite order is Arizona Hash Browns which has hash browns, roasted poblano peppers, grilled onions, monterrey jack cheese, two eggs, salsa or green chili. I couldn't recommend it more highly! read more

I haven't had a restaurant experience this bad in a long time. First, the greeter hands the menus and points to a table. After an extended period, someone shows up to take our order. She wasn't very pleasant. The food took a long time and our drinks were low. I asked for refills and he said "I'll let them know". No refills. I have to get the attention of an employee for refills. No more refills for us. An added bonus was that as I was eating burnt bacon and tasteless scrambled eggs, received the enjoyment of a long human hair intertwined in the eggs. I almost puked on the table. Never, ever will I go back here. If you want a box for a leftover sandwich, they won't stop by and ask if you need anything else. You have to go fetch it yourself at the front counter. read more

Ive been here many years ago and it was good. Sorry to say that is not the case today. The food was just "ok" but the service was very lacking. If you have to repeatedly ask for sugar and then cream for coffee and not get refills, and every move leaves you feeling ignored, then this is the place for you. Sad to say this place used to be good. read more

Unfriendly. Food is just average - certainly not bad - but nothing different. Came here Wed 9/23 only two booths filled when my friends and I arrived. Service was not the best. One of my friends pointed out no water was ever offered. Once we received our order, waitress NOT ONCE came by to check on us the entire time. I asked for Lemon wedges at the time order placed ---half way through the meal, I had to get up, find her and ask. She abruptly said "oh, we're out of Lemon (thanks for stopping by and letting me know). Then it started getting crowded. She dropped off bill . I needed a to go container ---no waitress in sight. Went up to ask for one and kindly asked if they were short-staffed (who isn't these days)---a different woman (seemed to be the owner) was a rude and said "NO ----we've been in business for a long time and can handle it - it's normal staff we just got busy". She was definitely annoyed with my question (or was just having a bad day?) I had a kind and gentle tone when I asked so I was surprised. OK.....I wouldn't have wrote this review but THAT was the icing on the cake! As I was leaving there was another woman with two others waiting to be seated. I normaly wouldn't do this but due to the rude reply and total experience here ---I suggested to the Woman waiting FAR BETTER cafe next door and how we were treated. read more

We had a good breakfast with generous portion size. They seemed understaffed as the server was a bit overwhelmed. read more

Ambiance: Simple, and a little cramped space. Service was subpar Food: Omlette was okay! Little on the bland side but okay. Chilaquiles was really good! Unfortunately the side of fruit we ordered had tiny caterpillars . We brought it to our Server's attention, he said sorry and left. Parking: There is a huge common parking lot in the plaza read more

We were seated and served quickly, but not once did our waitress come back to our table to check on us. Needless to say, we ran out of coffee long before we finished our breakfast. Will NOT be returning read more

Water was contaminated my waiter took long and my biscuits and gravy tasted like they were from Pillsberry not homemade at all. We're not recommend going here save your time and money. It was very expensive as well thank you. read more

This was a very homey place to get breakfast after Valentine's Day! The French banana pancakes were the best I've ever had, and they had a nice lavender coffee as well. They are extremely busy and popular - right down the parking lot is Top Notch but as we were waiting I heard everyone saying that Mountain home was more home cooked. Staff is very kind and accomodating, only had to wait 15 minutes after being 12th on the waiting list. read more

I ordered a BLT with fries. It was perfectly toasted on wheat bread, with tomato. My friend ordered an avocado and turkey BLT, with a side of fries. The size of the sandwiches were generous. The fries came out piping hot, and our waiter brought more, explaining we didn't get full portions! Although this place was very busy, we only waited a few minutes for a table. There's a nice atmosphere with a lot of chatting and soft background music. Service was excellent read more

Greeting by 1 service staff was pleasant was OK then a 2nd staff barked at us to sign in on the iPad "over there." The 1st said "It's OK I've got them" only to be overruled. After registering the 2nd staffer told us to sit at a table right at the door when other open (and more comfortable) were available. Such a very unwelcoming demeanor caused us to go elsewhere! read more

Mayra was our server, and I have never had a better one. We were made to feel welcome and at home. The food was excellent (breakfast), and the atmosphere was relaxed and utterly pleasant. we were seated on the patio, but indoors seemed just as good. when we return to Estes Park, we will exp to dine at Mountain Home Cafe again, and hope that Mayra's smile will still greet us! read more

Walked in and immediately got overlooked for another group of people, got sat down and watched as people around us got sat down and their orders taken first. After about 10 minutes of sitting there waiting to order, the lady was kinda rude to my mom when she asked for hash browns for breakfast. Do not recommend when there is a far better and friendlier restaurant across the parking lot read more

This breakfast and brunch restaurant in Estes Park has a great selection. I loved the breakfast burrito I got here before we set off to hike. It was a big portion that I couldn't finish, although I tried really hard. The burrito's contents tasted fantastic, and the food was reasonably priced for a resort town. My friend enjoyed her omelette as well. read more

The restaurant was cozy and the service was pretty fast. We ordered the simple breakfast sandwich and Huevos Rancheros. I personally enjoyed the huevos rancheros, it was cheesy, with tortillas filled with beans and meat. It is a good place to stop by for brunch before your hikes in the Rocky Mountains! read more

This place was so delicious. One of the best south western quesadilla ever. I wish I had a photo, but I was very hungry and I couldn't hold back. Service was outstanding. I can't wait to return to Estes Park to have breakfast here again. read more

The restaurant seemed very understaffed and disorganized during our visit. We never received refill on our waters, our order was incorrect, and I was served regular toast instead of the gluten-free toast I ordered. Had to get up and go get our own things snd ask twice for lemons. The staff was friendly, but the overall experience was frustrating due to the lack of organization and multiple mistakes. I hope they can improve their staffing and service because the food itself had potential. read more

Fantastic service, cozy environment, delicious food. Was very happy we stopped here. Clean bathrooms as well read more

We grabbed breakfast here on a Sunday morning. We got there around 9, just before the rush. We didn't have a wait, but there was one on our way out. The staff were hustling to keep up and were so kind, but you could tell they were overwhelmed. Our waitress forgot an item and we had to find someone to refill our coffee. I ordered the Arizona hashbrowns as something you don't see on most menus. And we also split the swedish banana pancake. The hashbrown plate was good traditional fare. The pancake was pretty good, but I didn't care for the whole vertical sliced not-so-ripe banana on the inside. read more

This weekend we took a mini trip to Estes park and we were so happy to find this restaurant. As soon as we enter we were greeted and sat with a smile. Food is great and service is awesome. Don't doubt to stop by and try their many dishes, everything we ordered was so good! Very calm place to enjoy breakfast lunch or dinner !..... Thanks again Jesus for such good service! read more

I had the Arizona hash browns and eggs with chorizo added. I'm not a huge fan of eggs but these were light, fluffy, and cooked perfectly. I mixed everything together and added the best salsa I have ever had, hands down, on top. Our service was great too read more

This place is always busy. I love their creative breakfasts. We go here first for brunch. Excellent service. Not too pricey.

Food is good; service is slowwwwwwww and it wasn't even that busy. Owner is cranky. The breakfast and lunch items were tasty though.

WOW! Things to know! Customer service is horrible. Came at lunch time, while the have outside seating, they wouldn't allow individuals to sit outside. It is one of the best times of the year to be outside and they won't let people sit outside in that area. Don't expect to go in and order things from the actual menu and be able to get it. As an example - while English muffins are on the menu with other items on the menu; you can't order that or ask for it if it isn't listed as an item with what you are ordering. Why you ask? According to my server, English muffins are not something servers have access to. Only the kitchen has access to those. The kitchen and servers have different access to items. Servers make the toast, not the kitchen. REALLY!?!? I also asked if I could have regular fries instead of hash browns, even if I had to pay more. Answer: NO! You can order a side of fries and then just not eat the hash brown. Horrible experience, and as a tourist town, one would expect more. Don't make this place one of your stops, you will be sorry! read more

Good food, short staffed so it will take a little longer, but well worth the wait. French Toast Combo was very good. read more

Mountain Home Cafe - French Toast Combo* ** - American Near Me - Estes Park, Colorado

Our breakfast at Mountain Home Cafe was extremely average. The Arizona Hashbrowns were under seasoned/salted. I accidentally spilled a good amount of salt in the pork green chile and funnily enough it was just the thing it needed. Drip coffee was fine. Definitely not a "special" or high quality meal. Average. read more

Went for breakfast but they serve breakfast and lunch all day. Many gluten free options. Had a GF tuna sandwich and they toasted the bread perfectly. Side of potato salad home made like the tuna salad and delicious. Not mushy like some make it. Had a cup of New England clam chowder that was some of the best I have had outside of Boston tons of clams, potatoes and celery with perfect spices! I ate half the cup and the spoon still stood on its own. Thick but not pasty like you get with too much flour. Sundays are clam chowder days. Call for other soups on other days. read more

We stopped in for our day trip to Estes for lunch, and they seemed to be training a few people but the attitude of what seemed to be the owner/manger is what confirmed the 2 stars. The food was okay. The burger was cooked well and the 'Benedict' was good. Onion rings were the star of the show I will say. The patty melt missed the mark on an actual patty melt though. The typical dressing was no where and the onions were lacking. The service was inconsistent. They were pretty attentive to start with but we had multiple problems with the order and it took us flagging them down after 5 minutes to ask. This isn't a big restaurant. At the counter when checking out we mentioned a sandwich did not receive the $1+ additional charge of bacon and the owner criticized us as well as the staff in front of us. They also couldn't separate orders which isn't a huge deal but something to consider. I wouldn't say don't try it but there also might be some better options. read more

Everything we've tried is amazing, from the French banana pancakes, to the blueberry Swedish pancakes, the poblano burger, and the 2 egg breakfast, among others. Wonderful service and the wait isn't long. If you're in Estes, hit up Mountain Home Cafe. You're welcome. read more

Had a breakfast meeting recently at Mountain Home Café and tried a new menu item: the Mexican Benedict. Instead of English muffins, the poached eggs were perched on a bed of tasty hash browns, topped with savory chorizo...all served with tomato and aguacate. It was a fiesta of flavor for the taste buds and exceeded my expectations. For local residents like us, this place is definitely our go-to for breakfast and lunch; never disappoints! The service is always friendly and accommodating, and the location is convenient with plenty of parking. You can't go wrong with Mountain Home Café! read more

Stopped here for breakfast on our first morning visiting Estes Park. The café is located inside of a shopping center. We were able to be seated immediately, and the restaurant was clean. The food tasted bland, particularly the chicken Chilaquiles that my husband ordered. Service was friendly and prompt, so outside of our particular meals being planned there was no complaints. read more

We visited yesterday. They were short staffed, only one person at the front taking orders (dine in and take out), serving and checking out! We sat for 10 minutes without water while waiting to place orders. She was very nice and apologized for the delay. Food was average for me (eggs Benedict, eggs were overcooked, not enough hollandaise), but spiced Chai was good! My friends' meals were good- ranging from burger to sandwiches, skillet, and chicken noodle soup. I am impressed that they made the fries from scratch! read more

All the staff that we interacted with were so nice. They were very friendly and helpful. Our food was delicious and came out pretty quickly.

Great food, service and atmosphere. Family friendly. Recommend the veggie omelette and Swedish pancakes with brown sauce!

Stopped in for a late lunch. We had the chicken fried steak breakfast and a California Turkey wrap. Both dishes were delicious and large portions as well. The restaurant is very clean, service was excellent and prices very reasonable. Avoid the chaos downtown and enjoy a wonderful meal here! read more

What a cute little spot tucked away in the shopping center. It's not very big but if you get there early enough you won't have to wait. We got there at 8 and it was perfect time. By 9am the place was packed and with a wait. Our server was very nice and the food came out so freaking quick!! For breakfast I got the Denver omelet and instead of regular eggs I got egg whites. Inside was ham, green peppers, cheese, onions and mushrooms. It was gooey w cheese which is what I love! It also came w hash browns and I got a side of bacon. The bacon was a nice salty thick cut w the perfect crisp to it! Definitely will be back. read more
