We ordered the big breakfast burrito, side of veggie chili, and home fries. Everything tasted good and the burrito was enough to share between the 2 of us. Nice variety of flavor although I thought the chili was a little on the bland side. Service was attentive and friendly. An easy place to stop in while in Fairplay.

We ended up having to buy a day old cinnamon roll but they heated it and it tasted fresh and delicious! The chocolate croissants are so flaky. I had them 3 days in a row. The employees are all so friendly. The baker is so nice and I enjoyed talking to her about FairPlay and taking time off in winter to go somewhere warm like South Padre, Texas or Hawaii. They also make great sandwiches. We grabbed some for a day out and about. Loaded with meat and made fresh. And of course we had the ice cream one afternoon. Creamy and smooth- full of flavor. Stop by here you will not be disappointed! (Skip the other coffee place and come here ) Cute old fashioned ice cream decor. Indoor and outdoor seating.

It makes me miss living in my home state. Jeremiah was excellent with all of the guests who visited while we were there. He was very knowledgeable about their selection of beers on tap and what food would pair well with them. He had our beers poured in no time and the food was out in a flash. They also have a great assortment of games to play, including some pinball machines. This is all set to the appropriate mountain wood/log vibe on the interior. It also appeared to have a great outdoor eating area for the warmer months. This is a must-visit destination in Colorado!

I would classify this restaurant as sort of a roadhouse with a large bar, pool table, arcade games, and projection screen. They are set up as a fast casual restaurant ordering food and drinks at the bar and waiting for your order. I had a craving for BBQ so I aimed straight for the vein with their smokehouse chili and I was not disappointed. Hardly any vegetables, but a lot of yummy, smoked, and meaty pieces served in a slightly spicy broth. Their salad looked good and the kids liked their grilled cheeses with side car's of ice cream so everyone was happy. Staff was friendly and stated that they actually have many families with children come by so don't be scared.

It was a fun little bar, even though I am not drinking right now and was kid friendly for a bar. I had the veggie burger on recommendation and although it was good, it wasn't the best veggie burger ever I thought the french fry portions were really expensive for the price, I was impressed with the chicken tenders though they were huge and delicious. Even the kids meal was a healthy portion server was very nice. No complaints there, but you do order your food at the bar. You pay at the bar and you are expected to brush your own table, so there's that.

The place was interesting with outdoor seating and several few rooms indoors (pool table, foosball table, back porch, restrooms, some living room type of area, a few TV's...). The only things we didn't like were tied to the random people there. The first was a person outside that we originally thought was going to solicit us for money while we were a captive audience there eating, but then just sat awkwardly near us and chatted with random passerbys; his two or three color dyed goatee looking like he just came from a college football game and attire reminiscent of Hugh Heffner with a mountain aura. He didn't even get a drink, he just walked up and sat around, then disappeared as magically as he appeared. Then there were a few patrons that were talking like they just came in to satisfy their case of the munchies. I was going to walk the downtown, but decided to keep on driving after this. Overall, I'd stop in again and just eat inside, probably a bit away from the bar. Everyone was super friendly, but I couldn't get over the general vibe of that time of day in the area.
