Has a unique sauce that is more on the mustardy side, but I think it tastes great and goes will with the burger. The fries are excellent - one of those fries when you see them come out with that batter - you know they are going to be great. Atmosphere is great inside and out. Will continue to return and would recommend to anyone in the area

We frequently travel I70 and make a stop in Idaho Springs for something to eat…read more On the last trip using Yelp we discovered Big B's and the high ratings by Yelpers. Our lunch sandwiches made us understand why. Generous portions, great flavors, and a cool vibe if you decide to dine in. Know it will not be the last time we stop so we can continue to experience the Biblical Sandwiches.

Definitely an acquired taste for an outstanding example of local culture…read more Starving for easy to swallow calories after mountain climbing, biking, skiing? Oh Yeah. Fattened up after your hotel breakfast buffet of waffles and freeze-dried eggs? Oh No. Split "The Cheesus," the Signature Sandwich, with a friend. Three (3) slices of freshly baked sourdough bread. Top and bottom slices have melted white and yellow American cheese melted into them. Middle slice has been soaked in tomato soup. Counter service is very friendly and will bring your order to the table. Consider it a Cultural Experience. It's like eating Alligator or Mud Bugs in Louisiana. One must experience Big B's whilst visiting Idaho Springs. Outside this mountain village, Micky D's has very little to be concerned about.

We made a special stop in Idaho Springs just to try this cidery and we were not disappointed! I…read morewill get this out of the way first, I expected an in-house made cider, since local unique ciders are my favorite, but instead Clear Creek curates an impressive list of guest ciders as well as many other drinks (beers, cocktails, etc) to choose from. I was coming off a mini-vacation, so I splurged on a flight of all 9 of their featured ciders and for $34, it was a steal! Their tasting glasses were filled to the brim and you can easily share the flight with others. I want to emphasize the value here - and they were all wonderful! We also ordered their Trippin' to Ned mushroom burger (burger with mushroom sauce, not made of mushrooms) and the cider burger, the latter of which was fantastic. Unique, flavorful, and so appropriate for a cider house :). Their fries were fresh and crispy, we were more than satisfied all around, with friendly staff as well. We'll be back!

I especially loved that some of their meals had a full and half portion. Great idea for less food waste! They have a wide list of benedicts, breakfast foods, as well as lunch options for anyone's delight. I had the full cajun benedict and I was pleasantly surprised. It had great flavor and there was plenty of food. Really delicious. I also indulged in a bloody maria. It was very good, just a little too strong for me. Well worth the $11 if you like a strong mixed drink. The only real downside is they didnt have air conditioning going so the inside was just as hot as the outside. All in all, this spot is pretty great! Definitely recommend for brunch and a cocktail!

Over our various visits, we have also tried and thoroughly enjoyed the crispy fish and chips with very good coleslaw, the tasty chili, the perfectly prepared watermelon salad, and the spicy buffalo wings.

On each visit, we sat in the covered outdoor area, and the service has consistently been friendly and mostly quick, but never disappointing. Tommy Knockers has easily become our favorite place for both lunch and dinner.

The breakfast burritos are consistently delicious, and the coffee is always good, too. One thing to note for families: there isn't a kids' menu, so if you order a pancake for your little one, be prepared--it is huge!

Overall, it's a reliable breakfast stop that we look forward to visiting whenever we're in the area.
