We enjoyed our breakfast at Pete's Café not too long ago. All the front inn ladies were very nice, friendly, dressed well and clean. We noticed, as we were waiting for our breakfast to come that there were plants growing up on the ceiling, which is very cool because it was so nice and fresh in there. Our food was excellent. We had a good time being there. Hope you all get a chance to check it out Thanks For The Read Until Next Time..... read more

Pete's cafe is a neighborhood restaurant that's been here for a very long time. Pete's has a following for sure, and during weekends, expect a wait. Wait shouldn't be too long though. Pete's menu is mainly brunch diner dishes, with some mediterranean dishes thrown in. So far I have only tried dishes in their breakfast menu but their other dishes also look good. We ordered the Pete's omelette and the Pete's skillet. Nothing great that really stood out from these dishes. Both were kinda dry. Adding ketchup to mine fixed that. The pancake was bland but dousing syrup on it fixed that. Our server was really nice. Extra cups of coffee came around a lot. Our food took a while to come out, which a little bit of a surprise. I think it was because our server forgot what we ordered at first and she had to come back and confirm our order again. Overall our experience at Pete's was okay. I don't crave diner food often and when I do there are many options around the area. One this I will say is that the prices at Pete's are more reasonable which is always something to consider. read more

Everyone is super friendly, and we loved the food. It's a diner, for sure- with the spider plant climbing the ceilings and the old school booths. But it is GOOD diner food. We came in twice this week- the first time we had the chicken fried steak and the Colorado burrito, both of which were eye poppingly good. We like their biscuits and gravy and their French toast, but they were just basic in comparison to the CFS and the burrito. Highly, highly recommend the chicken fried steak and the Colorado burrito. The burrito had huge chunks of steak, and so much flavor. The home fries are interesting- similar to fried scalloped potatoes. We will be back for sure. read more

Absolutely in love with Pete's Cafe. The food, the staff, the cafe itself - all of it. I don't think my review will give this spot the praise it deserves because it's too awesome to full explain. A friend recommended Pete's Cafe because they have a Greek twist on breakfast. We are big Greek food fans, so we thought we'd give it a try. I will likely be here every weekend now. My husband got the gyro and eggs. the meat was so tender and juicy and the eggs were fried perfectly. The homefries were fabulously crispy and the homemade tzatziki sauce were unreal. I ordered the biscuits and gravy, and those biscuits were so fluffy. I think I will try adding some meat next time, but I stole some of husband gyro meat and it was perfect. I also added on a pancake and I was sooooo glad I did. The portions are great and the coffee is made fresh. The staff are some of the friendliest people around. It felt cozy and welcoming hanging out at the high top seats by the kitchen. The staff is on top of their game and crank out food fast without skipping on the quality. Our coffees were constantly refilled and it was great to chat and learn more about the cafe while we ate. I wish I could give Pete's Cafe more stars. Already thinking about my next breakfast. read more

Pete's was exactly what we hoped for on a run to Denver. Looking for a good "brunch" and the breakfast was awesome to hold over past dinner. Service was great, food was great and more than enough. Thx Pete's for serving up a great diner/cafe experience. read more

One of the best "hole in the walls" in town!! It's a very small space (10-12 tables/booths) but the service is great and friendly. It's like you're eating at your Auntie's house. And the food is delicious! It's definitely my new spot for breakfast!! read more

Fox News on the tv. Won't go back. But the gyros were good. Good waitresses. Interesting decor.

The food is very tasty and the portions are quite large. Our waitress was very nice and attentive.

The food is good so you can go there and eat, but don't think you can sit around chatting with a friend or family because they're quick to chase you out saying there's others waiting when there's nobody else waiting to sit down read more

Nice family owned quality diner. Solid breakfast/lunch options and the mushroom/steak skillet was delish. 4 stars due to smell of cigarette smoke. Great service however! read more

When I travel to a different state, it is always hard to find a good breakfast spot to eat at. It took me about an hr to find this gem. I love this breakfast places like these because usually it's family own shop and they always have great service and great food. The server is amazing. She was very kind and very sweet. It was very cute when she came over and wanted to see our little baby but he was knocked out til we were finished with our food. Well sort of finished. I was trying to finish up my pancake. He had some and loved it. He's pretty picky on certain food but he kept wanting more of the pancake. Simple pancake as one of my side and this place pancake felt like love in my mouth. Sounds so wrong but felt so right. I couldn't stop eating it. Left only 2-3 pieces left because I overate. I usually don't eat pancakes but this one here just taste pretty good and fluffy. Also got a chicken fried steak with their home Fries. Hash brown like? Lol. It's sliced like potato scallop but pan fried. It was crispy on the outside and moist and soft in the inside. The chicken fried steak taste so fresh and go delicious with their gravy. Like their gravy was so amazing. It wasn't salty like most places I've been to. It has just the right amount of seasoning to the gravy that adds onto that chicken fried steak that was also seasoned very well. Loved every bite of it. There was nothing left on the plate. Once we return back to visit. This spot will be our favorite spot to come back to. Felt so welcomed there. Love it. read more

Really good diner food. Service was amazing and the folks working were kind. Felt very homey. Good biscuits and gravy.

Boycott this establishment! I am disabled and visited on Aug 5, 2023, and asked to use the restroom prior to ordering. When I exited the restroom, I was berated and rudely told to get out of the restaurant by Nick the OWNER, even though I was going to order. They told me they don't serve people like my kind! People like who? I am a long time customer and had to use the restroom! How is this wrong? Would they rather I have an accident on their floor? I was humiliated in front of several customer, that I left in tears! I will never be back! read more

Good food, prompt service, plus it's fun to eat at a place that has over 84 years old. It's one of my favorite diners in Denver. To me their menu is huge, so there's something for everyone to enjoy. I like their patty melt and onion rings! read more

We've been going once a week for the past couple months for our weekly breakfast date. The waitresses are super nice, and one even remembered that I can only eat half my burrito and had my box ready when I started slowing down on eating. The food is absolutely delicious every time. We had been on the hunt for "our" place, and we've found it. read more

Pete's was not our first choice for brunch, but there was a 45 minute wait at the other establishment up the street, so we ended up at Pete's. Not only was there no wait, but our breakfasts were delicious. They were a little slow on getting our food out to us, but it was well worth the wait. We ordered a breakfast burrito and the vegetarian breakfast skillet. The skillet was awesome! I requested for them to go easy on the cheese and put the gravy on the side. I actually felt the gravy was not necessary and ate the meal without the gravy. The eggs were perfect and the potatoes and vegetables were good. The prices are great and the menu offers everything you would want for brunch. Avoid the wait at some of the other chain breakfast spots and head to Pete's! read more

This place is now our favorite and we go almost every weekend. The staff is amazing. They know us know after only a few weeks. And they are funny, friendly and enjoyable! The green chile is spectacular. Not full of flour like other places. It's ground pork (I think, I don't want to ask and disrespect the chefs) and perfect for breakfast. Please please go there, and remember it's a Greasy Spoon and not the Brown Palace. If you want fruit, go to Trader Joe's!!! read more

A real locally owned diner! We were driving through and stopped in for breakfast. It's a small but friendly place. I noticed a lot of regulars were coming in, which is always great to see. I got the breakfast burrito and my bf got the sausage omelette. It was so much food and so good. A definite stop if you're in Thornton. read more

They are really good at breakfast , a family operation. I ordered a Greek omelette which was amazing, gyro with feta cheese and a cucumber Tiziki sauce pepper onion and tomato topping. The hashbrowns that they make are probably the best I've ever had, you can tell they're made from fresh potatoes and the caramelization on their hashbrowns makes them the best. That is true talent, to have the patience to cook breakfast potatoes the right way. To many people rush their potatoes, very good, Probably would've gave him five but it was cold in the dining room. Not a real big deal because they were slow and it won't stop me from going back I can eat a jacket no problem, if the room was full it would have been warmer. I will be back, they unfortunately weren't wearing masks though. Which I don't have a problem with but I think if people are concerned they need to know. read more

Nice comfy diner. Smells good. Excellent service. Pete's omelette is pretty good, comes out super hot and fresh. The gyro skillet was great, with the gyro meat having crisped edges and delicious feta. The potatoes are ok, in danger of being soggy but ok. The tzatziki sauce is fresh with raw cucumber in it, pita bread is warm. Nice spot for a cheap diner breakfast. read more
