Server was very friendly. First they ran out of what we wanted to drink (not her fault), forgot my corned beef hash but brought it when I was almost done with my breakfast, also forgot my toast. Grandsons biscuits and gravy were super dry and hard plus the menu read 2 slices of bacon and he only got one. But my server was very nice and polite so I didn't complain or raise a stink. I just will never return again. read more

Under new management and it's so much better, the green chili is really good but if you don't like the spice just order mild, I got medium and it was perfect, my mom got mild and it was a bit spicy for her. We both got breakfast burritos and they were delicious . Definitely coming back and soon. The new name is 5280 eats, it's owned by the owner and his wife that have the tattoo place next door. read more

Food is good. Portions are a good size. They have Mimosa's. Service is friendly and on the spot. Patty does a great job. Price is very reasonable. read more

I'd stick to a traditional breakfast here. I tried a sandwich today. After calling in a Reuben, the restaurant called back to tell me they took it off the menu. I opted for the Philly and it was very small with not much between the bread. I let them know and the staff made sure that I was taken care of when I came back, which is really appreciated. read more

My husband and I left this restaurant shocked. Here is why...first, we were looking for a new diner that would be a hole in the wall and has both Mexican and American options. We can both confidently say that this restaurant had both. Service was so-so, the place was in dire need to cleaning...new carpets...new chairs and tables...just was very old and dirty. You could see the marks on the floor like a black trail of where people walk. Sorry, but this is pretty gross. When we got to the point where we paid our bill, the price seemed right. I got my card out and on the counter...was a live...crawling....cockroach. I have not returned. read more

Parkway Cafe is your typical small town diner. I dropped by on a Sunday morning with a small group of people. They have limited vegetarian breakfast options. In fact, the only items on the menu I found I could eat was an omelet and pancakes or French toast. I ordered the number 3 omelet with French toast and a biscuit on the side. None of my food had any seasoning and the biscuit was under baked. The people I was with enjoyed their food more than I. As a vegetarian, my experience was underwhelming. This cafe may not be the best option for people with dietary restrictions but I'm sure all others might enjoy. read more

Lot's of good food at a reasonable price with good service. I had the # 2 omelet which comes smothered in green chili with hash browns and toast. The omelet was good and although they are not affiliated to the Parkway café in Boulder the green chili tasted the same. The hash browns were not browned but this is a lost art I guess judging by my recent experiences at lots of restaurants. I would repeat the experience, read more

Parkways Diner - Cafes Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Great tasting breakfast. This is definitely our new favorite. We've tried all the breakfast joints around here: Main St. Café, Westys, Lisa's Place, Pete's, Breadwinners, Butcher Block, all of them in this area. This one gets my vote just because the food AND the coffee tasted better here. Cons: The parking lot is congested and the spots are too small. Pros: Great tasting food. Decent coffee. Prices are exactly what you would expect. Service was as expected, not blown away, but no complaints. read more

Good little neighborhood spot. A little run down building-wise, but the service and food are always good. As long as I live nearby, I will continue to frequent this breakfast diner. read more

If I could give this 0 stars I would. Unclean. Fly's, cockroaches and ants on the counter and around the restaurant. Dealt with an unattractive demeanor employee; Britney. She seemed stress and VERY AGRO! Do not come here. Very incompetent business. read more

Great diner that delivers solid breakfast. Staff was super nice and attentive. Lots of locals that know each other. Hash browns were actually crispy, but a little on the soggy/greasy side. They get busy but overall a nice place to get a decent breakfast for a good price. I had biscuits and gravy which were pretty standard. Bf got bacon and eggs that were crispy and delish. read more

So I've been in the north area for years and I've always seen this little cafe but have never ventured in. So I decided to surprise my wife with some place new. It's located in a strip mall running parallel to 92nd ave, facing the North. This place is nothing fancy but it is very comfortable and lots of seating. There is a full menu and you can pretty much order whatever you want off the menu. We asked for suggestions and the waitress said pretty much everything was delicious. The server wad very friendly and very attentive. Even the other waitress checked on us to make sure we didn't need anything. I did go to the bathroom and when I walked by the kitchen it was nice to see the griddle in action full of bacon and sausage. Our plates were plentiful and filling. We will definitely be back. If your looking for something new, but old give ol' Parkway cafe a try !! Would definitely recommend !!! read more

Parkways Diner - Huevos Garcia - Cafes Near Me - Denver, Colorado

5 Stars because for a Greasy Spoon, this is the Apogee. I would reccomend experiencing it for yourself. True short-order cooking. Do breakfast of lunch, they're the best times. As for what to eat, get a Burrito or a Burger. These are just the Best, everything is good. read more

Very nice employees and food. Had a variety of good breakfast items to choose from. A friend and I love finding places like this to help the small businesses rather than the chain cafes and restaurants. read more

Howdy y'all - quick review is Go here. As one of my fellow reviewers said, this place is the Apogee* of little cafes - greasy spoons - without the grease. The food is home cooked, fresh ingredients and definitely made by people who care about what they serve. I'm pretty impressed as you can see. It's in a little strip mall on 92nd surrounded by little Mexican restaurants and a bakery. Don't expect a pristine setting, this is no frills but plenty of thrills. The waitstaff was all super friendly and personable. More of a friendly/friends atmosphere. Food - my wife had the Denver skillet. It has real pancakes with a good size and made right. In fact, the potatoes, Green peppers, onions, eggs were all fresh and not frozen stuff. I had the huevos Garcia, I was pretty happy with it.... their green Chile isn't the most elaborate out there, but it was good and the hot was hot enough. I would place it in the lower to middle in Hot heat range. Bottom line, go check it out.... Cheers y'all Ps * Apogee in rocket terms is the highest point in the flight of a rocket as it changes from upward flight to falling back to earth (arching over). I flew high power model rockets. read more

This place is a sleeper. It doesn't look like much from the outside and surrounding areas but they are the ABSOLUTE BEST breakfast joint in town. The food is amazing, portions are just right and the price doesn't put a stress on the pocket book. If you're in the neighborhood you owe yourself a visit to this place. read more

We stopped by on a whim after a doctor appointment and we were not disappointed. The huevos ranchero breakfast and traditional eggs, bacon and hash brown breakfast were delicious! And the service was great! read more

I have been here a few times and it's always pretty good. I would give the food 3.5-4, once it was great and another time it was average, but the customer service is definitely a 5! The people here are great and that goes a long way with me. I love giving my business to good hard working people. read more

I went specifically for the Gyro pita which was recommended to me. It had nice toasty pita which I liked, the meat was unique since it wasn't the usual thinly shaved pieces from a spit but rather 1/4" thick slabs. The yogurt sauce, lettuce, tomatoes & onions came on the side which works well. I did find my lunch to be a little pricey, considering the fact the place is in a trashy strip mall free of any typical REI clad Denverboulderites, I paid $11.50 w/tip for a Gyro pita, fries and drink. I also thought it was kind a cool how this extremely middle-american-Joe-the-plumber restaurant is smack dab in between a tattoo parlor and piercing shop which created an interesting juxtaposition for people watching. read more

There is something about this place.... I think, in general, I'm a relatively big fan of greasy spoons, although I don't go into them very often because they don't typically have healthy food options - but I LOVE the prices of them! The Parkway Cafe is a great establishment because they have a clean (for a dive) establishment with awesomely cheesy decor and the BEST staff (SUPER friendly) and decent diner food. The prices are right and the portions are BIG! I would recommend this place for dinner during the week if you're looking for a place to check out that isn't super busy. GREAT breakfast as well, but it can get busy. read more

Huge. Very huge. Wanna ditch your diet and eat a lot? This is the place to go on the cheap. Eggs: 8 Pancakes: 9 Hash browns: 7 French toast: 6 Toast: 9 (real butter) Breakfast burrito: 1 :-( - (sorry) Breakfast meats: 8 Service: 10 (yayyyyy!) read more

Excellent service. Good breakfast. French toast, eggs. and sausage. Coffee good. Reasonably priced. Recommended.

I love Greeks. Specifically, I love Greek restaurateurs, especially the ones who run breakfast/lunch joints like this one. They just know how to fill your plate up with hearty chow, and lots of it. Nick is the owner of this place, and you'll find him here most of the time when he's not over at his other establishment, Tug's Bar and Grill on N. Washington (more on that in another review). Standard breakfast/lunch fare can be found here, cheap and satisfying. Hashbrowns are HOMEFRIES, crispy and hot. I could eat a plate of these babies w/ ketchup by themselves. Oh, yeah, and the green chili? Excellent, spicy, meaty, I get it on everything breakfast-y here, and on the side if not, just to have some, 'cuz it's so goddamn GOOD. I'm making the observation here that while the big chains are struggling/going out of business altogether, places like The Parkway will never die, because they deliver up what the people want: good food, cheap. read more

1st time here for breakfast , clean place ,very friendly, I had 2 eggs ,hashbrowns ,2 sausage links and 2 pancakes for $ 7.65 .the hashbrowns were PERFECT just the way I like them. All was cooked the way I ordered it ..I will be back to try the green chili. The owners son said it was his dad's secret recipe.. read more

Service could be a little faster, it is in a fairly descent building. Atmosphere throws you off a bit once you enter and it was cold inside. Although the food was great and fresh. Pancakes were nice and fluffy just like they should be and the breakfast was excellent. Overall a 3 star rating. read more

Parkways Diner - County Fried Steak Breakfast - Cafes Near Me - Denver, Colorado

My boyfriend and I were hoping this would be our new favorite diner. It's close to where we live and has that really dated atmosphere inside. Unfortunately we were very disappointed when we visited. I ordered the eggs and toast with potatoes and my boyfriend ordered the same but with sausage patties. We both ordered our eggs over medium, but the whites in our eggs came out severely undercooked. The sausage patties my boyfriend ordered were still pink on the inside. The potatoes were good but didn't have a lick of seasoning on them. Good coffee and the waitress was nice, but if the cook can't execute a simple breakfast correctly, I can tell you that we will not be back. read more

This a gem of a place. Drove passed it number times over the years and never knew about this place. Food was great and the staff, all I can say is "WOW". Check this place out. You won't be disappointed. Wish I found this place before my buddy moved to Florida. This would've been our Sunday breakfast hang out. Thank you for great food and the experience. read more

I had a bad experience here. I came in with some friends. I ordered a burger and no fries. I wanted a salad instead. It was pretty good. Really greasy. A little too greasy. When I got the check I saw the full price of the burger and fries plus the whole cost of a salad. Usually there might be an up charge for the substitution but this was ridiculous. I asked if they could fix the mistake. They told me that the fries are included in the price no matter what. I didn't get fries. I didn't want fries. Why am I paying for fries? That's just how it is, they said. Is there anything your willing to do to make me happy and keep me as a customer? We can give you fries. So their solution was to give me the fries that I didn't order, didn't want and didn't want to pay for. Wow! You guys are amateurs. Can't even handle basic customer service. I will never be back. Bye! read more
