If you're heading to the mountains for the weekend or planning a camping trip, make sure to stop by and grab breakfast or lunch here! Not only is the food absolutely delicious, but they use premium-quality ingredients that really set them apart. The bread on their sandwiches is fantastic, and they've recently started using beef tallow for their French fries, chicken sandwiches, and wings which takes the flavor to another level. They also offer gluten-free options, making it a great choice for everyone. It's a smaller establishment, so be patient if there's a wait it's 100% worth it. The customer service is beyond what I've experienced at some high-end restaurants. While waiting for my food, I got to witness the teamwork and communication between the kitchen staff and front counter crew. These guys were hustling, working efficiently, and clearly taking pride in what they do. It was genuinely impressive to watch. Whether you're stopping in with friends and family or grabbing a meal solo, the atmosphere is welcoming, the music is great, and the overall vibe is positive and upbeat. Do yourself a favor and stop by, you can thank me later! And whatever you do, don't leave without trying one of their homemade ice cream sandwiches! read more

My friend and I were heading towards the mountains and we were hungry. The first interesting-looking place we stopped at had closed (it was an odd time on a Sunday afternoon), so we decided to stop at the next interesting place. Otto's was it! The place is small and seemed perpetually busy, so it took a while to get our food. But, there are also lots of interesting things to look at, so it wasn't bad. And the staff was very friendly I ordered the South Carolina BBQ sandwich, and we split an enormous basket of sweet potato fries. We liked that there was frosting to dip them in. My sandwich was good and generous; I only ate half, which meant that I got to enjoy the other half at another time. At first, we were not very impressed with the fries, but we managed to eat them all, so I guess they actually were good! read more

We're so glad to have gotten a table, because this place is popular! We looked at the Yelp comments and got their Cajun Chicken sandwich. The sandwich and fries (each of which we split) were delicious, and plenty for the two of us. Service was great, and all staff seem fully invested in this place. They even hand make their ice cream sandwiches (made with chocolate chip cookies..)! And be sure to check out the artwork in the restroom.. read more

Stopped in here because of the Yelp reviews. It was a good choice! It was super busy which meant that we had to wait a little longer for our food- 15-20 min. The guy behind the counter made sure to let folks know about the wait. Service was very friendly. Our sandwiches were delicious. We got the special and the original chicken sandwiches. Probably liked the special the best. There is only 1 restroom at this place and it was out at back of the building. Considering how busy it was there was a fairly long wait to use bathroom. That was a the one bummer about this place. read more

Went here to try their fried chicken sandwich and the reviews are well deserved. The colossal Cajun fried chicken was giant, perfectly crispy and had a great sauce and soft bun. Can seem pricy for $17.95 without fries but like I said is massive. The service was fast and friendly. You order at a counter but there's seating inside including high chairs, booster seats and colouring for kids read more

Otto’s - Colossal Cajun fried chicken - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Fairplay, Colorado

Fairplay can be such an unassuming drive through town, but I promise this place is worth the stop. Jam packed of delicious sandwiches, lots of options including vegan choices, there is without a doubt something for everyone. We took recommendations from the worker and landed ourselves with a basket of Cajun fries, the Otto's special chicken sandwich and the cheesesteak plus a large selection of dipping sauces for the fries. Everything was incredible, great portions and flavor, truly not a negative to remark about. Staff was friendly and attentive, vibe easy going, walk up and order and pick a seat, plus outdoor patio space. Will certainly be back read more

Otto’s - Cheesesteak, Otto's special chicken sandwich, Cajun fries. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Fairplay, Colorado

Outstanding chicken sandwiches in the mountains, dubbed America's highest fried chicken. I was on a men's trip and we were staying near Fairplay. We stopped here twice. Both times I ordered their Original Chicken sandwich. Each time we visited, it was busy. Limited parking, a line, sparse seating. The staff was friendly and attentive, personable and calm under pressure. The orders kept coming and they kept steady hands on the fryers pumping out consistently good food. This chicken sandwich was the best I've had. Large, all white meat, quality chicken. It was perfectly fried with a thinner breading. It didn't over power the meat but complemented it. The only topping this sandwich needs is pickles. They were thicker than normal, fresh, crunchy and juicy. The honey butter and fresh toasted bun rounded it all out. The side of fries were good too, crunchy and flavorful. If you're near Fairplay and looking for a good meal, go here. I'd go back. read more

Spectacular sandwiches at 9500 ft in the Rockies! We were staying near Fairplay for a few weeks this summer/fall and had seen Otto's but never actually stopped there. This time, we made plans to have one dinner there and it was absolutely worth it. I had the Hot Honey Chicken Sandwich, all the way with their serrano slaw and blue cheese dressing and my wife had the Classic. The chicken is absolutely that - a fried whole chicken breast - no marinade, no special flavors - just chicken. No surprises, no "weird" tastes - and the menu is diverse enough that you can find something to match your tastes and appetite, from basic to "everything," as our order shows. There's no skimping on the toppings or flavors. The sweet potato fries were a very nice surprise - they were thicker cut vs. the thing, shoestring types you so often get elsewhere. They had a crisp outside, soft inside and kept their heat well. The hashbrown - both a side and a topping - was perfectly crisp. Now it's someplace that when we're back to Fairplay we'll probably hit again, especially to try to he breakfast burritos others rave about. read more

Good food, incredibly expensive! With the prices, at least add fries without additional expense??

Otto's is the GOAT of chicken sandwiches. Hands down the best chicken sandwich I've ever had. My favorite is the hot honey chicken sandwich with Serrano slaw. Outrageous. The sweet potato fries are fantastic. Customer service is amazing. Highly recommend Otto's if you are in or passing through Fairplay! Mountain town atmosphere with spectacular service. Thanks, Otto's, your restaurant is amazing. read more

5 stars for their bacon, egg, and cheese biscuit sandwich! We popped into Fairplay for a quick breakfast while staying in a nearby town and I'm so glad we stopped at Otto's. It's an order-at-the-counter type of place with several tables to dine at and the people working there were very friendly. Their breakfast biscuit sandwich was one of the better breakfast sandwiches I've had. The biscuit was super flavorful and moist, didn't crumble apart when biting into it, and was perfectly stuffed with gooey cheddar cheese, fried egg, and crispy bacon. I don't believe it's on their main menu, but for $8 it was such a nice surprise. A place I'd come back to again and again. read more

A nice little Oasis in the middle of the mountains. Was visiting for a buddies wedding and I had to drive there from Denver. Half way there I was starving and ran into this place. Everything is amazing including the people . It's one of those laid back hippie joints that you barely see anymore. I mean that in the best way possible They do a mean chicken sandwich and I left happy :) simple enough read more

We have land in Fairplay and stop by here everytime we go camping! I love their fried chicken sandwich and my husband loves their Philly cheesesteak. read more

Ate here 2 times during our stay in the area. Genuinely the best cheese steak and chicken sandwich I've ever had. Staff was great too

We came in the biggest snow storm of the year. We were welcomed warmly with some of the friendliest service I've had in a while. They had crayons and coloring sheets for the kids. The food was as wonderful as the service. The breakfast burrito was baller! Just a perfect stop! read more

Best chicken sandwich I've ever had. If you're driving through ya gotta stop, mmkay.

This little food joint was the perfect location to stop and go. Traveling from Cañon City, Colorado to Salt Lake City, Utah and it was the best food we had all weekend! Great Staff, very friendly and opened to give suggestions on food. BEST Sweet Potato Fries I've ever had! The sandwich of the day was the Perfect Spicy Crispy Chicken Sandwich like no other...with so much flavor. My husband had a breakfast burrito and said it was the best burrito he's had in his life! Loved the vibe it had and we were so glad they had a public bathroom around back with Koala Care for us to change our baby! read more

This busy, little place in the of Southpark/Fairplay, is a gem of a stop. The food is tasty, has generous portions, and is not made until you order. It is well worth the wait for both the food and a place to sit down. read more

My family and I recently stayed in Fairplay for a week. While there we dined at Otto's three times because it was so good. It is a cute little place with inside and outside seating and is dog friendly. If you get there and there is a line to order just be patient because it is worth the wait. The staff was friendly and the service was quick. Some of our families favorites were the BLT, grilled cheese, smashburger and the hot honey buffalo chicken. Every thing that we tried was good. If we are ever back in the area we will definitely be at Otto's!!!! read more

We really liked Otto's! They are fast and delicious. Definitely recommend the breakfast sandwich with bacon. Good drip coffee too!

Cajun chicken sandwich was excellent. Fries were hot and delicious. My husband had his GF fried chicken sandwich with a gluten free bun, and he devoured it before anyone said, "go!" We will be back! read more

Breakfast for the win here in this super positive space! Stayed in Jefferson but drove through this town on the way to Breckenridge/Idaho Springs. So happy we stopped. Open on a Monday (thank you!) which is always a challenge to find. Great vegetarian choices for my one. Cheese quesadilla for the picky one. Plenty of options for the rest of us. I was so torn on what to order-famous chicken sandwich or the breakfast burrito. Ordered the burrito, filled me up for the entire day!! I'll have to try the sandwich on another adventure. read more

Still dreaming about their spicy chicken sandwich. Perfection. Spice mild & flavorful, coleslaw, perfectly crispy chicken & dripping with homemade ranch. Sooooooo good. Service was great & fast - friendly order at the counter & they bring the food to you. Spot for filling water at the counter was perfect before our hike. Outdoor picnic tables or a few tables inside that can seat 4 at a table. We were a group of 7 so we sat outside. Bathroom out back. Small parking lot. There was a consistent line the whole time - I can see why! read more

Saw great reviews so decided to try this place out. Ordered the original chicken sandwich, the cowgirl fries and the sweet tarot cinnamon fries- the fries are huge!! Just be warned!! Can share between 3 people!!! The sandwich itself was decent. We also custom ordered a kids steak burrito for our dogs- out dogs loves them. Very friendly people and accommodating. read more

All things considered, the best chicken sandwich I've had! another in my group said the same about the Philly Cheesesteak. This spot is great. I bought a bottle of the "Creole" hot sauce. The only nitpick I could give is the lack of umberella outside at the picnic tables. Incredible food! read more

Yes, the chicken sandwich is excellent. So are the fries. Be prepared for a queue and to wait a bit for your food. Everything is made to order. The 3 Otto's hot sauces are very flavorable. The service is very friendly. There is plenty of seating. - paper napkins - no beer read more

This place is a MUST stop on a road trip. The chicken sandwich was delicious and the employees were so incredibly nice.

The staff were so friendly and the food was really good!! Split the Pastrami and mountain Cristo, it was heavenly!!

The vegan burrito here is good. It's got a lot of different components. Wasn't too spicy even with the jalapeños. Surprised to actually feel like I got an actual fully conceptualized vegan meal in Fairplay. I'm going to eat this burrito approximately another 1,000 times. read more

Huge breakfast sandwiches. Great staff who are super friendly. Worth a stop if you go through Fairplay

If you are in Fairplay and don't eat here you are a fool. Best sandwiches and fried chicken.

This place is an epic must-visit in the quirky town of Fairplay. The chicken sandwiches lived up to the hype and the staff was very cool. Dogs are welcome on the patio and they were even given treats with owner approval. It was a nice crowd patiently waiting and we spoke to some cool families while we ate and waited. We definitely look forward to a return on our next trip through the area. Flavor was good on the Cajun style sandwich, fries were great and it was BIG portions, piping hot. What's not to love? Parking is tough, so come early or wiggle in somewhere. read more

Really great place. Love the vibe for sure. Everything is fresh and the employees are kind and helpful. One of our favorites is of course the original chicken sandy, regular fries. The house sauce is the real winner and their pickles are the real deal. Only downside is parking is not great, if you wanna eat there not too many places to sit (we usually take ours Togo) and it's pricy. However that's to be expected unfortunately in a mountain town :( Finally 5% discount if you pay cash!! Kudos Otto's!!! In a sadly cashless society we love to support a business that still values a cold hard dollar :) read more
