Breakfast Burrito Smothered in Green Chili
Todd J.

Wonderful little breakfast spot. We found it this morning as we were searching for a good breakfast burrito. They nailed it! Great breakfast burritos! My wife and I each ordered ours smothered in green chili. She had chorizo, and I went with the slow roasted pork. They were both outstanding. The green chili is some of the best in Colorado. These burritos are now tied with our favorite breakfast burrito in the state. We visited on a Friday morning in August. It was busy, almost every table was full, but we were sat immediately. Our server was friendly and attentive, and the food came out timely. We won't forget this place when we visit Durango. I forgot to take a picture before I started to dig into mine, but here's what a half eaten one looks like.

We happened upon Rupert's at lunchtime on a rainy Monday. We were greeted right away and then quickly seated. They were super-busy, but very organized. My husband ordered breakfast: eggs, chicken fried steak, biscuits, gravy, & potato cakes. I ordered the pimento cheese bacon burger & fries with fried pickles on the side. The biscuits were soft & delicious. My burger was really good. My husband enjoyed his hot chocolate, too. We'd absolutely recommend this for breakfast or lunch. Cute signs & fun toasters on the wall made for cute atmosphere.

Breakfast so good I visited 3 days in a row!!! Highly recommend the breakfast burrito. Staff is friendly. Great options and good prices. Can get crowded on the weekend mornings but a 15-20 min wait is worth it.

Vegan Friendly French Toast
Lori B.

NPO since 8 pm day before I was ready for some food and caffeine since diagnostic testing was over. Came to Rupert's based off reviews....they didn't disappoint. What a hopping cafe. I ordered the vegan French toast and a side of bacon. Having a severe egg allergy makes breakfast choices out limited. The cinnamon on the French toast gave it the right crisp plus the maple syrup was spot on for my taste buds. The bacon is thin strips which aren't my thing I prefer thick cut bacon. It has a few counter seats and then as many tables as can be put inside for seating. Turnover of tables was quick. Many people came and went. I enjoyed my hot tea and read while I ate.

Crazy toasters on the wall
Judy B.

Had to take the truck to Ford because a chipmonk chewed thru a wire. Sigh. It was 10am and breakfast sounded good. Found this nice little place. So cool inside with crazy toasters on the walls. Also seating outside. Service was great and with a smile. I had the Animas breakfast which was bacon and eggs with 2 delicious potato cakes and wheat toast. Very good. Coffee good. The wife had corn beef hash with 2 over easy eggs on top. She loved. I knew it as soon as I read their menu. She likes different stuff. They also make breakfast drinks but alas, we had to drive 3 hours back to Creede so had to pass. Someone got a burger for lunch that looked good but was huge.

My favorite spot in Durango to grab breakfast! Such a cute diner spot for breakfast and lunch. I ordered the Benedict and an iced chai latte. The food was delicious and the potatoes were so different and tasty. I'll definitely be coming back next time I'm in Durango!

Veggie Benedict
Hope S.

Found this cute breakfast place in Durango. Wow. One of their specialties is the potato pancakes. It comes with most of their breakfast entrees. I had the veggie Benedict which was oh so good! Best I've ever had! Service was great. Very friendly and attentive.

Truffle scramble with added ham, avocado, and mushrooms
Jennifer H.

Hit this place up on the way out of town. We had to wait a half hour due to this place being popular, but we had a large group of 7. Once we sat down though, they were super fast handling all of our orders and requests! I really enjoyed my Truffle Scramble. I like how they make it so easy to personalize their scrambles. I added ham, mushrooms and avocado to mine for slight additional fees. My husband enjoyed his steak and eggs. We ordered their special chorizo bread pudding entree and a shareable because we couldn't resist that savory and sweet option! I highly recommend the vanilla chai latte. One of the best ones I've ever enjoyed! My friends ordered that too once they heard me order mine and tried mine. The ambiance is cute with the varied toasters hanging on the walls. As a Star Wars fan, I was glad they included one with the Millennium Falcon!

CHICKEN FRIED STEAK
Maria-Christina S.

A local favorite! Visiting Durango every once in a while we usually stick to restaurants within walking distance of main street but during our last visit, a worker in a local store asked if we'd ever been to Rupert's because they had the best chicken fried steak and banana nut French toast - so that's exactly what we did and we'll always go back! The restaurant is near the edge of town, tucked away. It's small, so it seems to fill up quickly but the wait wasn't too bad. We had the best server! He was happy, friendly and very busy as he was juggling lots of tables but didn't miss a beat with refills, checkins and answers to all my questions. But don't take my word for it, try it for yourself - plus, here's a couple photos that speak for themselves...

Eggs Benedict
Erika Z.

We went twice while in Durango and both times were delicious. The jalapeño bacon is so good! Eggs Benedict were great.

This place deserves their 4.7 rating. If you like spice try the Southwest Benedict. Also, not once did my coffee cup get empty. Will return.

There only appeared to be a couple people working, and the entire experience felt disorganized from beginning to end. I was really looking forward to having breakfast here based on the reviews, but after 45+ minutes between waiting and sitting at the table without even getting to place a food order, I'd had enough. Warm water was just the icing on the cake. Extremely disappointing experience. I walked out and will not be back.

Lots of veggies and shrimp, with smaller portion of pasta. It was delicious. My S.O. ordered the beef bordelaise, with gravy, mashed potatoes, and asparagus. Unfortunately, the beef bordelaise had several cold bites in it. Thankfully the mashed potatoes were hot so he could mix the bites. He did not ask them to address it. He definitely does not like to send things back, and cause issues with the kitchen. I would have sent it back, especially with the chilly day and AC running. Our waitress was friendly; she checked on us periodically and took empty plates quickly (huge plus!) and brought the check quickly. Happy to eat lunch here, but if I go there again, I will ask to sit in the front at a regular table.

Michel personally tends many of the flowers, and they're often incorporated as beautiful edible garnishes, making each dish feel like a work of art. Michel's Corner is one of those rare places where exceptional food and heartfelt hospitality come together. It's a highlight of every trip to Durango, and we can't recommend it highly enough.

She took the Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad to Silverton, but unfortunately I wasn't able to go because of a medical condition that prevents me from traveling to high altitudes, and the train climbs to around 10,000 feet. After she left on her adventure, I decided to find some breakfast. While I was walking around town, my aunt called. She and my uncle used to vacation in Ouray every year, so she knows the area well. She recommended Jean-Pierre Bakery, so that's where I headed. I was seated right away and ordered a coffee while I looked over the menu. My waitress was very friendly, and we chatted for a while. She even recommended a few places around town that I should check out. I finally decided on the Croque Monsieur (brioche, béchamel, ham, and Swiss cheese) served with a salad. When my meal arrived, it looked fantastic. The sandwich was delicious, rich, and full of flavor. It was my first time trying a Croque Monsieur, and I really enjoyed it. The salad was fresh and crisp, and the vinaigrette paired perfectly with it. After finishing my meal, I couldn't resist ordering a pistachio cream-filled éclair that had caught my eye when I first walked in. It looked beautiful, but unfortunately, it was a disappointment. The pastry was very dry, and the bottom was quite hard. It definitely didn't taste freshly made. The pistachio cream had a nice flavor, but there wasn't very much of it. I mentioned my concerns to my server, and she kindly brought me a chocolate éclair to try instead. It also looked wonderful, but it had the same problem. The pastry tasted old, almost like it had been sitting for a couple of days. I would absolutely return for another Croque Monsieur or to try something else from the breakfast or lunch menu because that part of the meal was excellent. As for the pastries, they certainly look beautiful, but based on my experience, I would probably pass on them next time. This would have been a solid 4 star if those eclair had of been good.
