Arrived early on a Sunday morning to beat the church rush. Waited a half hour for TERRIBLE food!! It DID NOT USED TO BE LIKE THIS!! SAD! The hash browns were completely hard and inedible like uncooked pasta (I think they used dehydrated hash browns that they forgot to add water to...REALLY!) the biscuit was a rock hard hockey puck, the gravy was terrible, the sausage patties horrible, and the French toast was tasted like rubber. Nothing had salt or any flavor. It used to be wonderful, but we WILL NEVER BE BACK! A complete waste of money. Spend 15 minutes to drive to Black Bear Diner on Garden of the Gods Rd. IMPECCABLE!!! Shame on you Rosie's, where did your standards go? Out the door apparently! read more

Very cute old school diner. Definitely pay for the ambiance and kind service. Came during a lunch rush on a Saturday and had to wait 30 min for our food. The Turkey pesto croissant was delicious! Perfect amount of pesto mayo, and the croissant made it a special sandwich. My husband enjoyed his burger, but felt it was a bit overpriced. You get a lot of fries when you pick "frings" as your side, so we got to take some home. The bacon on both sandwiches was really good, nice and thick. We'll come try breakfast next time! read more

Local diner, locally owned. Busy as heck on the weekends, but staffed well so wait times are minimal. The staff hustles. Melissa was our server. Great smile, super attentive. Pretty simple menu with large portions. Get a milkshake! read more

Solid New Jersey style dinner. Good food and great service. Don't expect the 20 page menus like you see on the East Coast but the breakfast selections are great. Try a giant cinnamon roll. read more

Rosie's Diner - Exterior - Diners Near Me - Monument, Colorado

This is a great little diner. Don't expect La Reserve food, but it has crazy good comfort food with prodigious amounts of food per serving. Milkshakes are terrific and difficult for one person to finish. The Elvis fries are loaded with cheese and gravy and are HUGE!!!! The California Club on a croissant was impossible to finish, but delicious. All the ingredients were fresh, but half would have been sufficient. The Monte Cristo sandwich was abundant and excellent. The chicken fried steak smothered with white gravy was very good, but as with the other food, far too much to finish more than half. The lumberjack breakfast was fit for a hungry tree jockey! Order half of what you think you are going to eat, especially if you have kids with you. The fifties era theme was fun...juke boxes at the table and a big Wurlitzer at the entrance. Photos of Jimmy Dean, Marlon Brando, Elvis (even a Breakfast at Tiffany's poster)and other icons from the movies of the long gone, nostalgic past decorated the walls. The waitstaff is knowledgeable and eager to be of service. Prices are reasonable. Restrooms are clean. All in all, a good, family place to enjoy. read more

Rosie's Diner - Entrance - Diners Near Me - Monument, Colorado

Really cool place to eat and chat with friends, especially if you're a fan of classic cars. Had breakfast with friends at their suggestion. Breakfast was okay, not outstanding, but more than adequate. I had the corned beef hash, and it was the kind out of a can, fried up on the flat top. Still tasty. Service was okay. Adequate parking. Clean and bright place read more

Ohhhhhh yeahhhh! What a delightful experience! We were on our way to Pike's Peak and decided to grab a bite to eat. I pat myself on the back, Great choice! :-) Restaurant was busy but we were able to sit at the bar area with no wait time. We ordered the turkey croissant with fries and a bacon/egg/cheese croissant sandwich. Yum Yum Yum! The croissant was so soft and flaky, the meat was packed layers high and the fries were hot and crisp. Staff members were on point! Everyone was in sync, orders came out promptly, everyone worked as a team! Nice job!! We really enjoyed this spot! read more

Friendly, family owned, clean restrooms, fast service, old fashioned diner atmosphere with the best cheeseburger and onion rings in El Paso County! 7 oz beef cooked to perfection. I took my 6ft 5 grandson last week and he loved the cheeseburger, fries and cookie crumble milkshake. I have enjoyed the meatloaf dinner, roast beef dinner and fish dinner which is always more than I can eat and usually have enough for another meal at home. All perfect. As a former restaurant owner, I have to say that Rosie's would have given us alot of competition. It's the best food in El Paso, County! read more

It's always very busy, and a good bit loud. But the food makes it worth it. And the staff is extraordinary! They never stop. Moreover, it's a nice place and the staff are always nice. read more

When our son was at the Academy he introduced us to Rosies. And now it's our "go to" place when we pass through the Springs. What's good: Everything! Burgers, shakes, onion rings and all their breakfast items! (I know...not much help.) My favorite is the Huevos Rancheros! And too top it off the staff is great! read more

Rosie's Diner - Huevos Rancheros - minus the sour cream and pico de gallo - I love it with both of those but my husband does not. - Diners Near Me - Monument, Colorado

This was our first visit and we loved this place. We went with the kiddos for breakfast. The food was really good. Nice generous sizes too. Not downsized like a lot of other places these days. The ambience was excellent the place was well maintained and very clean. Our server Alex was really friendly and did a great job of looking after us. We will be back 100%. read more

The service was very good. They close at 3PM, however they don't turn anyone away and will sit you and take orders as long as needed. The food was standard diner-style. Nothing special, but the portion sizes were above average. Apparently they are known to have great milkshakes and malts, but we didn't try any of those, maybe next time. I would recommend and I'm sure we will be back sometime in the future. read more

Best diner on the Front Range!!! Miss Mimi and her crew are amazing, we have never been disappointed with Rosies! Prices are reasonable, portions are great and the atmosphere is even better! (Loud but a good loud!) They are also great community members who seem to sponsor every thing that goes on in our goofy community...car shows, runs, fireworks... Special shout out to the kitchen staff, those guys really rock!!! The backbone and nerve center of any dining establishment!!! Try the burrito...trust me. Take your out of town visitors, they will love it too!!! read more

We popped in for breakfast and were pleasantly surprised. The atmosphere was great the food was great and the service was great!! Highly recommend! read more

Good diner food. Great service and unique ambiance! Would recommend it highly! Unique dining experience awaits!

I have been going here for over a year, since I moved to Monument. The Servers have always been great. Yesterday I went in for breakfast. The hashbrowns were waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay under cooked (raw on the bottom). I asked that they be put on the grilled again. I did get some flak, and I was told, it has now costs the restaurant double for my order??????? why? My family was in the restaurant business for over 60 years..........we would have just given the customer a new order........and been down with it.....not sure why I was treated in such a manner. read more

Great service and generous portions. Prices are neither excessively high or low. Fun retro atmosphere.

honestly this place was a 10/10 it is so good and such a small town gem compared to all of Denver fast food i was heading down from there to the springs for a meeting and i got of the highway for some gas and saw it and i had to go there for a quick lunch it was great it was packed to much and only a 10 min weight so i decided to go there and it was worth it the shakes where so good and the sourdough burger was delish 11/10 the serves was also immaculate i added a photo of my adopted son down below and how he would have loved the shakes. "he is all into that sweet stuff i always tell him he will ruin his teeth but he just dose not listen he is so sweet like those shakes" made me think of him now i feel bad for not getting him one read more

closes in the early afternoon!? I would like to go later at night rather than just have breakfast when it's so overly crowded. The atmosphere is annoying and cumbersome to enjoy read more

Absolutely the best that you could ask for a real old school diner with wonderful staff courteous treatment wonderful food delicious shakes ambiance and droves cleanliness at the highest level wonderful place to eat always will keep on coming back forever read more

Sat at counter of this '50's theme diner. Hoping to find something with more local color, but no one was open. Hint: if you're advertising breakfast, then OPEN IN THE MORNING, and if Morning doesn't begin until 8:00, two hours after sunrise, then you are OPENING TOO freakin' late! Enough rant. Rosie's was clean, with good, standard offerings, reasonable prices, and friendly service. No complaints' read more

Good diner food at Rosie's I Monument. I got the hot Turkey sandwich and my friend got the cold one. They use real turkey, not the pressed deli type. The mashed potatoes were mashed, not whipped and not lumpy. They were definitely real potatoes. The onion rings were also good. When biting into them the onion didn't string out. I guess they were not homemade but can't say truthfully. Serving size was big for both lunches. At noon on a Monday they were busy and it was a bit noisy but the staff was very friendly. It's a good place for diner food. read more

First time back in almost 10 years. I forgot how amazing the food is! I've only had their breakfast but I love it. Very friendly service, always clean and pleasant. If you've never been, I highly recommend any of their breakfast burritos, they are HUGE! read more

If you want a blst to the past with great food and service, come to Rosie's Diner. The ambiance is amazing, and the signed pictures will keep you looking for your favorite. It's definitely not a greasy spoon, and like I mentioned before, the food is delicious. Their giant cinnamon roll is one you should totally try. read more

Probably the best meal we've had in Colorado. We had a party of six. Several had breakfast and the older family members had meals. My husband said his liver and onions were excellent. I had the turkey while my cousin the open face turkey. The breakfast orders were perfect as well. The server was on spot and they had sweet tea. I stopped back in on my way out of town for a chocolate peanut butter milkshake. Delicious. read more

Super cute diner, just ok food. Soup was pretty good, burger was average, didn't care for the cake. Although it came out with ice cream the cake itself was cold like it had been sitting in a fridge.. would've been better if they could've warmed it up a bit. Wish their breakfast hours were available on weekends. I enjoyed the cute diner atmosphere more than anything. read more

Never been disappointed. Incredible, efficient service. Fun atmosphere, personable staff, enjoyable dining experience. Family friendly.

I'm happy that there are so many great food choices in Monument. Rosie's is among them! We had breakfast here recently. Portions are huge, food was really good and the staff was very attentive. I can't wait for the pandemic to be over and we can really take in this place. We never drive by and see the parking lot empty. However, there seems to be plenty of seating. I can tell this is a "go to" location for locals. The vibe is awesome and we'll certainly be seeing them again soon. I think it's amazing that this place has a place in 70's commercial history, look it up! read more

What a special find on our way to Colorado Springs from Fort Collins. Stopped on Sunday around 9:30am. Had a bit of wait...always a good sign. The inside is very inviting and although only 20 years old reminds you of a 50s style diner. Very warm atmosphere. We were there for breakfast, but decided to have lunch... Love that option. We both had the California club croissant... However I had mine with Ryebread. Huge huge huge... I almost finished mine, my girlfriend struggle to eat half. They were so good. I wish they were closer and I would go more often... But I shall return. Highly recommend this place read more

Great 50s diner. The cinnamon roll is a meal in itself. We had to ask what "frings" were- french fries and onion rings.

We came here out of necessity one day, as my volleyball-playing, constantly-growing, locust-like devourer of everything daughter was sooooo hungry, immediately needed to eeeaaattt after practice, and this place stood out. It was the perfect place to go feed a super hungry athlete, with lots of protein options (even for vegetarians) and hearty portions! We keep coming back, and haven't had anything bad yet. Some highlights: DECOR So... it's a diner, right? Typical diner look, lots of cozy booths, each booth has a mini jukebox to flip through and look at but I don't think it actually works. The music played throughout is mostly from the 50's, 60s, 70s. We jam out the whole time and I am free to fully embarrass my family by embracing the music in body and spirit! How can you NOT sing and dance along to Palisades Park or Little Old Lady from Pasadena?!? You'd have to be a monster! I am not a monster, so I shall jam :) OMELETTES I love the omelette. It kind of makes you feel like you're getting something healthy, and fills you up really good. All that eggy protein. And then I put broccoli on it for my daughter's omelette (score! Veggies! mom of the year!), and cheese. There are a lot of yummy options for the build-your-own. The portion is good and always tastes great! The omelettes come with pancakes: typical-sized, decent pancakes, served with sweet syrup and an individual whipped butter packet. If you're feeling fancy, you can upgrade the pancakes to chocolate chip (piles of semi-sweet chips and some whipped cream), pecan, and maybe one other specialty pancake that I'm forgetting. The omelette also comes with a potato side: hash browns or home fries. I'm never not getting home fires whenever possible. Very much yum and fullness is to be had with this omelette meal! BURGERS & FRIES Disclaimer: I don't eat meat. Luckily, they serve a Boca Burger that can replace any of the other styles of burgers. And they didn't even mind when I created a weird burger concoction. (Overall I was impressed with how patient, knowledgeable, and accurate the wait staff were with the orders.) My boca burger was done Hawaiian style with the grilled pineapple and teriyaki sauce, plus I added sliced jalapeños and crumbled blue cheese. Yummmm! Fantastic combination! Feel free to add this to your menu and call it the "Zia" after my daughter (haha) It was served with a huge side of fries that were cooked perfectly with all the right crispness and saltiness. Great fries, and a huge portion! My daughter got the onion rings and was also happy with those, although she wished the order was bigger. PASTA Another time she was craving pasta, so tried the penne pesto pasta with pine nuts, and she went crazy over it! It was silent for a few minutes as we are eating, then I look over and the plate is clean and she's trying to sop up any remaining morsels of flavor with the garlic bread. I believe it had artichoke hearts, olives, and might come with tomatoes that she took off. You don't go to a diner to have pasta, but if you're in the mood this dish is a good choice. She had a side salad with her pasta and was happy with it. Added hardboiled eggs on top, tasty blue cheese dressing. They are very accommodating and willing to help you create the specific meal you are craving here! SHAKES & DRINKS In all the times we've been here, after the hearty meal portions we've only had room for shakes on one occasion. We got cherry chocolate shakes to go. I happened to mention that my daughter and I were splitting it, and she came back with two mini-shakes with whipped cream on top! Awesome! Great customer service! For drinks, I enjoy getting the chocolate flavored Diet Coke, cherry sprite , whatever other creative combinations you can come up with for soda and syrup! OVERALL Always satisfied and full! Great service, good music, reasonable prices, never been disappointed with the food- it's what you expect for diner breakfast and burgers, and everything is done well in those categories. It'll continue to be our go-to restaurant whenever we are hungry for some seriously filling food in the area. read more

I was in Colorado for most the summer and this place was in my top places I dined at. I think I ate here at least five times throughout my visit and every time the service was great, the food was delicious and atmosphere was neat. Occasionally I had to wait for a table but not long at all. 10 out of 10 I recommend!!! read more

Excellent food and service. The chicken fried chicken with brown gravy is out of this world. The chili cheese fries are amazing. Don't forget to buy a milkshake while you're there. We have never been disappointed and wish I would have found Rosie's sooner. This is a MUST GO diner. read more

Perfect traditional diner experience!! Never had anything but a good meal here. Chicken fried Chicken was not the best. I'd definitely choose anything else. The malts are da bomb. And DON'T miss the wet fries YUMMMM Can't pass them up!!! My aunt loves their burgers. Perfect idea for a date night with a theme. You'll be transported right back to the 50' read more

These people know what they are doing. Smiles. Efficient. Good fresh breakfast good. Comfortable booths. We make a point of stopping here on trips every chance we get. read more

Just an FYI. Despite what indicated on the website, the owners are being deceptive, at best. This diner is not, never has been, nor ever will be the diner that was in Little Ferry, NJ. It does not even closely resemble it. I lived less than 3 miles from the original, and ate there dozens and dozens of times. The original Rosie's, a.k.a. Silver Dollar Diner, a.k.a. Farmland Diner, a.k.a. Rosie's Farmland Diner is now, sadly, an abandoned, rotting hulk in Rockford, Michigan, where it was moved in the 1990s. And yes I saw them cart it off. Only reason I rated 1 star is you can't post unless you do. They deserve not a one. read more

An upgrade over IHOP. Prices and options were uniquely accommodating. Great service. The food was delicious.

You either love diners or you hate them, I love em and Rosie's is a great example of the genre. Little touches like duke boxes at the table you can use to choose music for the whole restaurant make this a fun experience. You won't find fine dining here, but the portions are generous and the meals filling and tasty. I love the teriyaki burger and the liver and onions. Other members of the family enjoy the breakfast and we all love the malts and shakes. You will walk out webs heavier but happy. read more

We had a party of.9, 6 adults and 3 children. Server was excellent, friendly and entertained the children. Food was good, fish and chips were spot on, I had chicken fried steak brown gravy and real mashed potatoes. Chocolate shake was so.big 3.kids shared it and we brought a to go cup home. All in all worth the money within average of 15 dollars per person, 9 entrées 9 drinks 1 shake and a slice of chocolate cake for midnight snack. read more

Food was good but no dairy free coffee creamers or gluten free options on the menu. Service was good, very fun atmosphere.
