I've been in this building before when it was the pizza place and original hideaway mind you. Walked in and it just didn't appear clean. It was a bit dark and some bulbs needed replaced. No biggie. Heater registers looked banged up. Ok but maybe the food is good right? Because you can't screw up breakfast...or so I thought. Hubby ordered the 2+2+2 with eggs over medium. I had western omelette with potatoes. The toast didn't even make my $16 plate as noted on the menu. Husband's pancakes were a very light color and didn't appear cooked. We asked for butter and were told they were already buttered. His eggs were also watery and not close to a medium cooked egg. I opened up my omelette to find it oozing...why is it watery? I swear the coffee cups were not clean as I could see DUST floating on top. Creamer looked grey and was not refrigerated. How long did it set out? Overall our meal did not taste good and it just didn't look appetizing either. I was grossed out nevertheless and ate some of the potatoes which were probably the only decent thing on our plates. Sausage patty looked dry and sad to be there with the undercooked egg with oil sauce. I'm so sorry to leave a bad review but I didn't think it was possible to mess up breakfast. We won't be back. I expected better for Mother's Day

Every single beer on tap was quality. Even if the style wasn't your favorite, it was still quality. But for for me, I thought every beer was delicious.

I'm updating my review because I've been back several times since my first visit, and a few things…read morehave changed. When I first came here, the food was excellent but the service was... not. The place was busy -- maybe a dozen tables plus bar seating, and about 80% full -- but even with a busboy helping, the waiter/operator barely paid me any attention. Maybe it was the beard and the autumn work attire, maybe it was just bad timing, but I felt pretty ignored overall. I was so irritated that I only tipped fifty cents -- and that's saying something, because I always tip well. Fast forward to now: he's much better. It seems like he may have seen my original review (the 4-star one) and wasn't thrilled about it. Still, to his credit, the service has definitely improved, and the food remains phenomenal. On my return visits, I've tried the Western Omelette (pro tip: ask for it with their jalapeño cream cheese for a delicious kick!) and, for the first time ever, chicken and waffles. Both were fantastic -- and honestly, I'll probably never order chicken and waffles anywhere else again. Still, I always find myself coming back for the huevos rancheros. Funny story: I asked the owner/waiter about their huevos rancheros recipe. He told me it's been in the family for 45 years. The ingredients are surprisingly simple -- nothing fancy, not even cumin -- so either he's guarding a well-kept family secret, or his father, the cook, has simply perfected the art of turning ordinary ingredients into something extraordinary. As far as ambience, this place is just an ordinary, mountain diner. I love their floor though, and I would like to replicate it in the next cabin I build.

Kip's was one of the highlights of our trip to Pagosa! The fun atmosphere, friendly staff, and…read moreamazing food made it a memorable stop. The wait for a table was about 30 minutes, but we spent the time walking around the area, so it went by quickly. Once seated, we found ourselves in a tiny dining room and bar with walls covered in license plates from different states. We turned it into a fun little "I Spy" game while waiting for our food. We started with the Chips and Salsa Fresca, which was fresh and delicious. For our main meal, we ordered tacos -- the #1 El Diablo, #5 Esteban Special, and #6 Fish Tacos. The chipotle sauce on the El Diablo was phenomenal, and the grilled fish in the fish tacos was some of the tastiest I've had. The staff was fantastic as well. My daughter ordered the Chips w/ Cheese (nachos) from the kids' menu and unfortunately didn't like them at all. When we mentioned it to our server, she genuinely cared and quickly made things right by removing the item from our bill. Next time I'm in Pagosa, I'll definitely be coming back to this gem of a place.

We had a burger, a brisket salad, some fries, and a milkshake. Burger was alright, hefty size and decent flavor, but nothing that'll blow you away. Brisket salad was pretty yummy and all the veggies were very fresh and good quality! Fries were very crispy, but to the point of being overdone. That milkshake though.... Whoa. So good! Pretty sure they put an actual pie in it and blended it up. Super thick and delicious with nice chunks of fruit and pie crust mixed in! Biggest downside was that our food took 20-25ish minutes to come out, but still a nice find in a rather empty spot of this part of Colorado with a focus on local produce :)

We got the pretzel as an appetizer.... The pretzel was greasy and so was the cheese they gave with it. The cheese seemed frozen, then microwaved. It had a really dull/greasy taste and odd texture. The French dip was like rubber. And the au jus sauce was bland. For her the best part was the side salad. She even said her beer had an odd taste to it. My chicken sandwich had no flavor. The red potatoes where severly over cooked on the outside and under cooked on the inside. My drink (the house black cherry cream soda), was really good the first glass! Second glass was flat and very syrupy. The server briefly came by a couple times. He would quickly ask "everything ok?", as he rushed by. He wasn't horrible, but he wasn't great either. Overall we where very unimpressed. Not somewhere we'll be returning to. For the price, I had better expectations.
