Had two different meals, two different mornings and the food and service has been amazing. They sure know how to take care of you in here and it's a nice clean place. read more

We stopped in around 10am on a Monday morning, we were told the wait would be 20 minutes for a table. We waited about 10 minutes and were seated. The food was good and the service was good too. read more

We were super impressed by Notchtop. We had lunch one day and then breakfast the next. The food is legit good (in my opinion, it's hard to find actually good food in smaller towns in CO). I had a burger for lunch and the next morning for breakfast, I had the Santa Fe hash -- both well seasoned and fresh and spicy. Even the drip coffee is good. The service is fast and efficient and you can tell the staff take it seriously, running a great restaurant. The crazy mountain views just outside the window make this the complete Estes dining experience. read more

Notchtop - Santa Fe Hash - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Estes Park, Colorado

Notchtop offers a wide range of options for their breakfast/brunch menu. Out of which, dragons egg benedict was creamy and tasty, instead of the usual English muffin, this dish had pancakes underneath the eggs. We also got Colorado burrito, the portion size was filling, and the green chili sauce was WOW. Service was fast and they are happy to adapt, esp if you need to substitute a side for dietary preferences. Highly recommend! read more

No one was poisoned, but that's about the best thing I can say about this place. 5 out of 10 for food, 2 out of 10 for service. They were busy but we were more than patient. Breakfast for four shouldn't take 70 min read more

Still a favorite in Estes! I've visited quite a few times since my original review and it's still my #1 recommendation for Estes Park breakfast. I love the variety they have for both food and drinks, and you can't go wrong with anything on the menu. The staff is always so nice and the service is quick no matter how busy they are! read more

Delicious breakfast! Warm,inviting atmosphere. Great service. There's a reason they are always busy!

Was craving a good breakfast burrito and found this place. They have many options for making a dish vegan/vegetarian. We substituted the eggs for the Cajun tofu. OMG. My lips are tingling from the spice. It isn't a heat spice. Just a very savory flavor. The burrito is full of veggies and comes with sliced avocado and fresh pico. These are full size burrito's that will fill you up. Gluten free tortilla is available. The wait staff were very friendly and allowed me to make substitutions on my burrito. The place was clean and prices reasonable for a tourist area. A staff member, maybe a manager came around and asked how we were doing. We said how much we loved the food, especially the Cajun tofu. This place also has quite the selection of teas and hot drinks as well as desserts. If we get back this way again it is a must to stop at again. read more

After a beautiful hiking morning in the Rocky Mountain National Park, husband and I built up an appetite and decided to have brunch at this spot. Service was excellent. Hostess was friendly and our waitress was also friendly and attentive. The coffee here is great, no after taste or harsh bitter taste. They have a huge variety of breakfast and lunch options on their menu. When we went, they also had a seasonal fall menu. I was instantly sold when I saw pumpkin apple waffles. It was sweet, delicious, and fluffy just how I like my waffles. Also came with bacon and eggs. No extra charge for egg whites! I also had to get a cup of their soup. They had elk stew so I wanted to try it and it did not disappoint! It hit the spot on a chilly day. Very peppery flavor, it reminded me of something my nana use to make when I was a kid so it also brought back memories. I recommend this spot if you're in Estes Park :) read more

Notchtop - During the fall season, Pumpkin Apple Waffles. And a cup of elk stew. All of it very delicious! :) - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Estes Park, Colorado

Amazing place, very busy even at 10:00am but that's for a reason. The food was amazing, breakfast burrito with green chili was delicious. Not too many potatoes, quantities of chorizo and eggs were perfect. My son loved his cinnamon french toast with eggs and bacon. Coffee was delicious and the service was very good considering how busy the place was! read more

Notchtop - Breakfast Burrito and Cinnamon French Toast - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Estes Park, Colorado

Came for brunch on a Tuesday and was packed. Portions were huge! Service was very slow for a breakfast place. Waited nearly 30 minutes for fruit parfait, omelet, cinnamon roll, and oatmeal. Food was good though. read more

Food and service were both excellent! The Reuben with sweet potato fries was delicious, as was the patty melt with grilled onions, and even a slice of bacon added. The mango margarita was refreshing and the bartender added a fancy syrup swirl, (so an A for presentation:) We had our dog with us and we were able to sit on the patio with her. Plentiful portions and a pleasant experience. read more

The food here was just ok. I ordered eggs Benedict and the eggs were over cooked. The yolk was hard. The hollandaise sauce was pretty good. The potatoes were over seasoned. That is probably just a matter of preference. My girlfriend ordered French toast and it was under cooked. The service was just ok. The restaurant was very nice and clean and very cute. read more

Great little restaurant for breakfast. It was busy, but the service was quick. We shared breakfast, chicken fried steak, and it was excellent.

Very friendly service. We had lunch but it looks like breakfast is the way to go. They serve it all day. The salad and sandwich was good. Not great. It's in a strip center so nothing fancy. read more

Not a fan. Burrito was gross and dry. There was so much tortilla left because the burrito wasn't filled up with anything. They put the pico and guac on the side? That usually goes inside of a burrito, also guac is usually smashed up and not still an avocado. There is nothing to salvage in this meal. I wish I could say something good about it, but if you look at my burrito picture the cheese isn't even melted on, it's still solid. Also way too difficult and not worth it to eat with a fork and knife. There was so little chile verde sauce, which contradicts the name of a "wet burrito". Disclaimer: This was after an overnight 8 mile hike. So I was HUNGRY. And this place did NOT satisfy that. Service was good, atmosphere was busy. read more

Notchtop is s brunch restaurant in Estes Park that serves up an inviting, rustic atmosphere with warm wooden accents, and nature-inspired decor. It feels like you're stepping into a cabin and an old school diner at the same time. As for the food, Notchtop offers a large selection of breakfast and lunch items, with vegan options as well. I'm not going to lie, I was a little confused by my dish. It was a veggie hash with tofu and I was expecting the tofu to be scrambled and seasoned (to mimic scrambled eggs) but the tofu was flavorless and in large cubes. Everything else on the plate was delicious so I simply pushed the tofu to the side after trying a few bites of it. As a vegan who eats tofu quite often, there's so much you can do to season it and make it taste good, so I hope Notchtop will improve that specific dish. Everyone else in my party was 100% satisfied with their meals and like I said, besides the tofu, my food was good. The service was good and our food came out quickly despite the place being packed so I'd definitely be willing to come back and I would recommend to others. read more

Notchtop - Twin Sisters Benedict - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Estes Park, Colorado

To begin I'll start by answer your burning question- yes, Notchtop IS a top-notch eatery! Open for breakfast and brunch- we arrived today about 12:00. Although super busy at a peak time on Sunday, we as a party of two were seated almost immediately. In no time our attentive waiter, Luiz, approached for our drink order. The menu was easy to follow and digest even though there are so numerous options! Trust me every member of your family will find something for breakfast or lunch that tickles their fancy. In the end, I opted for the Veggie Scramble with a side of fruit and multigrain toast. Hubby ordered the Polish Breakfast with the sour cream on the side. The Veggie Scramble is similar to an omelet and everything was fresh and tasty. It included two large slices of multigrain toast. Other toast options were sourdough or English muffin. The side of fruit included slices of apple, banana, strawberry and orange. Refreshing and fresh! The Polish Breakfast also included generous portions of eggs, sausage and hash brown patty. I think the sour cream was for that. He chose the English muffin. There was so much sausage, he gave me two of them. Everything was delicious! The staff were friendly and Luiz took great care of us. The food did take a little bit but no longer than was reasonable as busy as they were. We sat close to the door and I could see tables were turned quickly so the wait wasn't bad for anyone that came in. I have a feeling we will be visiting again during our stay this week. There are more things on the menu I'm eager to try. It's a bakery too but we didn't try any of those items. Their coffee cocktails sound delicious as well. Also loved the decor, especially the autumn leaf white glass art on the bar side where we sat. The wood carved welcome bear added to the charm for sure! read more

We were very excited to try this place based on the reviews. Unfortunately, it didn't rate as high in our list as it did for others. Staff was nice. We sat at the bar, which was nice and quick. We ordered the egg white omelette. It was not good at all. It was not cooked well and the feta seemed old. I had one yesterday and it was a lot better (for those people thinking egg white omelettes can't be good). We got the dragon eye. It was ok but not great. Coffee was definitely diner coffee. read more

They seem to nail the sweet stuff, which makes sense because it's a bakery. The cinnamon roll French toast was really good! Hash was fine, I felt I would have preferred less hash and more egg but that's just me. Bread didn't feel homemade but was fine. Service was fine. read more

We order breakfast burritos and omelets, plus some treats. Baked goods were dry and stale, but the worst part was the watery and aggressively bland burritos. Weak coffee too. With high prices and lots of other options in town I would skip this place. read more

We had breakfast at The Notchtop restaurant while vacationing in Estes Park from Colorado Springs. Our food and service was excellent! Our waiter, George, from Guiana, provided great customer service. Our meals were delicious! The Manager, Melania, was seating guests and also walking around checking on customers, refilling beverages, taking away dirty plates, etc. We were very impressed with her friendliness and attention to all of her customers. When in Estes Park in the future, we will definitely go back to The Notchtop Bakery and Cafe!!! read more

We arrived early for breakfast. The restaurant was not busy when we arrived (approximately 7:30 am on a Saturday) but did become busy after we were seated. Our greeting should have been our first clue that it might not be a great place to eat, in fact we had no greeting and then led to a table where menus were dropped. Our waiter was pretty good but we only saw him when we ordered and he came back to check on us once after we received our food. The worst omelet I have ever had in a restaurant. The cheese was all on top and never did melt and the omelet was very dry. The omelet was very short on the ingredients. Another meal was a pancake that was not very good and the potatoes mediocre. Ambiance was ok, just busy and employees going in circles. Nobody cared when we left either. Not a great experience. Will not return to this restaurant. read more

Great breakfast at a busy spot located in a shopping center. We had a party of 8 and were accommodated on a Saturday morning within 25-30 minutes. Service was a little slow, had to ask every time we wanted coffee refills, which is the reason for the 4-star review, but food was good and everyone left happy. Since it's located in a shopping mall, there wasn't much of a view, but the restaurant is clean and kept up-to-date. read more

A great place to get your brunch fix if in the RMNP area. They have a pretty extensive menu and the staff service is great. There maybe a wait so be sure to plan accordingly if you're short on time. read more

This place was delicious, cute and quaint and all of the staff were super friendly! We were immediately sat and we sat at their bar. I got the corn beef hash w potatoes over easy eggs and some bacon. the portions were enough for a small family lol. The food was good. I liked how the corn beef was actual corn beef instead of the can corn beef, yuck! The meat was full of flavor and the potatoes were seasoned just perfectly. My overall meal was a 10/10. I will be back to try their other items on their menu and they had quite a selection that all looked delicious. read more

We loved this brunch spot & will definitely be back. Ample menu that appeals to a wide variety of dietary preferences, great service in a casual environment with easy parking - no complaints! Portions are huge & all had leftovers to bring home, which is unusual for brunch for my family. Bakery cabinet looked amazing - we tried some of the muffins, but the cookies were also calling my name. We will definitely be back the next time we are in Estes Park! read more

Second stop to Notchtop in Estes. Quality food both times. The breakfast menu is available thru lunch, providing a wide array of choices for hungry diners. Today I selected the veggie breakfast sandwich & it exceeded my expectations. A generous and hearty choice that helped refuel me after a winter hike in RMNP! While I added hash browns, it would've been enough food without. Our server was awesome - he was attentive and brought all we needed. The atmosphere is relaxing. Notchtop is a great choice of restaurant when swinging through Estes Park. read more

Woweee. Deeply not good. Went for Sunday brunch. The eggs were rubbery (so rubbery! Terrible and weird texture), the pancakes slightly raw with the flavor of baking powder, and the Mexican hot chocolate just... sweet and tasteless? It was such a bummer, because it had good reviews and my friend in Estes Park recommended it (for elk stew). Anyway. I love a little local diner, but I will not be returning. read more

There's a reason Notchtop gets so busy--it's really good food! We got to Notchtop when they opened on a Saturday, and we were seated right away. The wait staff helped us adjust our order to be dairy and gluten free. We started with coffee and an oat milk chai. Best chai we've had in a while! Our entrees were the American breakfast and the veggie burrito. Both were excellent. The restaurant has a laid back vibe with Colorado style (he lights had antlers in them). There is outdoor seating as well. The women's restroom was a large, single stall with a changing table. read more
