    Stopped by this little "jewel" to grab some coffee on our way to the Rocky Mountain National Park. We were warmly greeted and just loved the laid-back/down-home vibes of the place. The cashier was super pleasant and very patient in explaining the various types of pastries offered. I decided on the morning glory muffin top (delish) and my husband had a bear claw pastry. By the way, the town of Lyons is quite quaint; loved the small-town atmosphere!

    So, not from CO, we are from ATX so we try and find those places that stand out and let me tell you this place did not disappoint!! The service from the gate was IMPRESSIVE and Inviting!! it was from a young lady who was taking orders slinging drinks and doing it all with a smile while communicating!! Then you have my man behind the scenes putting together mother watering concoction's!! The food we had was fresh, tasteful, and made us appreciate the hometown vibes and locally owned and operated businesses ...Watching these two work was so refreshing as the ambiance was like a CHEERS atmosphere... it's clearly a local hot spot and people come from everywhere to try!! This place is pet friendly and needs to be spot you try if you are in Lyons, CO! Thank you for a great Saturday MORNING!

    Sausage burrito

    For a frozen burrito they microwave it's actually not that bad. I should of known it wasn't a fresh breakfast burrito when It was only 5 bucks. But atleast they press it so it gets a little seared or else it would be a mushy soggy burrito. It was very small and not filling at all But the guys working there were cool

    Heading to RMNP from Denver. Stopped for some breakfast and iced coffee. Delicious, 10/10 sandwiches. Even had some yummy hash browns. Burritos also delicious. Staff were great and friendly! Dogs welcome on the patio. Lovely place! We'll be back!

    While dogs are not allowed, they ate a very sustainable establishment, which I love. Service and ambiance are great. I would definitely check it out.

    BLT bagel and smoked salmon bagel sandwiches

    Low key relaxing ambiance and delicious breakfast sandwiches! The service was super friendly and we enjoyed sitting outside, enjoying the weather and friendly visitors. Would definitely recommend before or after a trek to Estes park.

    Lyons, Co. They handle the long line of breakfast seekers well, even though there are some glitches made in the process. These are corrected quickly. Excellent breakfast items including the granola. I would prefer more granola and less yogurt however. Decent latte even if it was a tad too milky.

    Breakfast bagel, eggs and tomato

    Delicious! Coffee was great, food was great! I would definitely recommend! We also tried 3 different muffins all were delicious. Great place to eat

    Needed a good jolt after an early morning airport run to Denver. While they don't have dine in right now the coffee was great! My cinnamon roll was good too!

    The barking dog greets you

    Best place in Lyons to stop for a breakfast/lunch sandwich for $10 or less. Be prepared to wait 10-15 minutes for your food.

    Great place to stop before heading to RMNP. Coffee, breakfast, and pastries are good. Rodriguez and his blue dog would be happy.

    Good food and coffee at very reasonable prices. Don't come if you're in a rush, though. A "local shop" experience.

    Scratch Deli and Bakery - This one was the Spanish with no meat. I think this was the best of the two.

    We needed a quick bite before starting hikes in the park - we found this spot with great reviews…read moreand basic sandwiches as well as some more unique ones. The cashier was super friendly and let us have as much candy as we wanted, helped us pick menu items, and was very honest about wait times due to their busyness but was still quick to get our orders out as soon as she could. The restaurant has few tables so its more of a grab and go spot, but it is possible to sit at a small counter or select few tables. The sandwiches were all good, some better than others. Some people were happier with them than others. The specialty sandwiches got the best reviews.

    As we were about to enter Rocky Mountain Natl Park our first day, we knew we needed lunch to go…read more I found this place on Yelp and it had such great reviews we decided to give it a try. All of their meats are cured in house and served on their fresh baked bread each day. They are vegetarian friendly and offer vegan and gluten free options. They also offer breakfast items like burritos. Be aware their sandwiches are loaded with ingredients and big. I could only eat half of my sandwich. I do appreciate the size though as you never know how hungry you are going to be after a long hike especially in this altitude. We went with the turkey sandwich and added cheese, all kinds of toppings and a spread. These sandwiches were very tasty and all the veggies on the sandwich were so fresh. Their baked goods looked so inviting especially the cinnamon rolls. I will have to come back! Service was efficient and helpful. Parking can be a bit of a challenge when they are busy. It was the perfect stop before entering the park!
