Tamara and Mindi make this place the best to go for breakfast Tamara is the best cook. Food comes out fast and hot and cooked the way you order. Mindi is on the spot with coffee before I sit down. read more

You'll have to eat there to enjoy it fully there is no way to explain how wonderful this place is home cooked food fresh seriously. Also clean staff service is as to expect about 10 minutes not a big deal with so many ppl who eat here. Well lighten great to have a conversation in with family members well kept and smiling happy place also the people. read more

The service is not great. The gal working the register is not very friendly and when bringing up/questioning why we're getting charged an extra $10 for a meal to be a combo (fries and a drink) she tried to talk to us like he were dumb. Resulting in me having to talk to her the same way. Food is basic and people working in the back don't look very clean. Respect and friendliness in a restaurant is a must or you will lose customers. If you're looking to send $50 on two basic meals, this is your place to be. read more

We drive through Naturita twice a month and always stop at Blondie's for a cheeseburger. The food is tasty and the service is excellent! I'm sure my 82 year old mom would feel like a teenager here with the cool 50's style decor. read more

Last summer when we traveled to my hometown of Cortez, Colorado, we decided to take an off-the-beaten path through the Gateway Canyon, south of Grand Junction. I had previously driven the first part of the trip on Highway 141, from Clifton to Gateway, but I was blown away with the landscape even further south! It is some of the most interesting and serene parts of Southwest Colorado! Around lunch time we ended up in Naturita (population 546). This area of Nucla and Naturita has an amazing history, but I won't bore you with it with here. We stopped at a classic greasy spoon diner, Blondie's, for lunch. You could tell that this restaurant was the epicenter of town from the number of patrons. I enjoyed my green chile cheeseburger and tater tots, and Bob liked his special of the day, brisket sandwich. The decor was 1950s Americana. There were even fun murals in the restrooms, and an arcade off the dining room. It's not completely clear when you go in that you should go up and order at the register. We sat at our booth for a few minutes before we figured that out. There was a "For Sale" sign on the outside of the restaurant; I hope that this kind of American experience doesn't leave this community. read more

See all

This restaurant is fantastic. It is a step back in time. It reminds me of a diner that I used to eat at when I used to visit in New York City my chicken sandwich was delightful fresh grilled perfect and my french fries for the bomb.com. The ladies in there was so fabulous adorable. You must go to the bathroom is there a must it's a 50s diner and I will be back when I'm visiting. Thank you ladies for making an enjoyable lunch read more

Attention customers, i have ordered a double cheese bacon burger with extra cheese and extra bacon two time prior to today's visit. My bumb ass didnt check the order until i got home. To my surprise i was missing the extra bacon and patty. i live in norwood so i couldnt drive all the ways back and had to settle with my loss of food any money! todays order I decided to pull off to the side and check my order. Not only was i missing my chicken wrap (i had asked for crispy bacon) but my double cheeseburger was missing its patty. I went in to bring it to their attention. The manager with the rotten teeth that makes you want loose your appetite. Goes back to the kitchen, which mind you there is nothing blocking the kitchen and the front check out. All you hear is the manager yelling at the cooks and blaming the young girl who's is also working the register inside and working the drive though. (So unprofessional) when i got my order back they took my burger back slapped another patty on it. (Im sure this is against food code and they should of made a new one. But also they never made my bacon crispy like i asked for in my original order. My bacon was raw and my wrap was half the size it usually is when i order it. In conclusion, make sure you check your food. They will charge you for anything extra but not add it to your order.... Very disappointed and i hope they find new management. read more

Passing by Naturita, Colorado, found this great place to eat sandwiches. Great burgers and fries. Fast service and friendly employees. Also they have free wifi. read more

Blondies should be called BLANDIES. Ordered a Chef Salad and must say it was the worst Chef Salad I have ever had. Water downed lettuce and absolutely had NO flavor. Even the salad dressing was terrible. I only ate half and had to throw away the rest. I heard this place was not very good and unfortunately its true. Do yourself a favor and go home and make a Chef Salad. So let it be said.... So let it be written. read more

Very cute. Very clean. A lot of attention to detail. Employees are super nice. We were driving through and stopped here for lunch on a whim...without looking up any info or reviews. We were so pleased. My husband and I got hamburgers...I got the plain and the hubs got the green chile. Both were delicious. They fried the french fries nice and crisp...no soggy ones. They also serve pizza and ice cream and sandwiches and salads. I have every assurance that all of their food is yummy! They have arranged for social distancing inside and encourage masks, but a few people came in without them and nothing was said about it. Restrooms are very clean. Easy parking in front. I honestly have nothing bad to say about it. It was a wonderful lunch experience. The saddest thing is that there was a for sale sign in the window, so I hope whoever purchases it will keep the cute 50's theme and the delicious quality food. read more

I ate here over the summer and really enjoyed the burgers, fried zucchini, and onion rings. I would definitely stop here again!

Good burgers, good onion rings, good malts...when you're staying at Camp V, eating organic, hiking & meditating...sometimes you just have to eat junk food ... Blondies fills the need perfectly!!! read more

Driving through & so glad we stopped here!! That was one of the best burgers I've ever had in my life. We both ordered the green chili burger and it was soooo good!!! The two girls working the register were so sweet & accommodating. Highly recommend! read more

After hiking in Utah earlier in the day, I was in search of a burger in this scenic, remote area of SW Colorado. Blondies was the only option I saw on the main drag. They are in the middle of remodeling, so the entrance is in back. I ordered the western burger combo with fries & a drink for just under $10. The western burger came with an onion ring, BBQ sauce and American cheese. The bun was a little on the soggy side and started falling apart, but the burger was pretty tasty. The fries were standard thin cut and could have used some more salt. It certainly was not one of the better burgers I've had, but in this remote area of CO, it was fine. If you're ever passing thru this area, give them a try. read more

Blondies - Western cheeseburger - Burgers Near Me - Naturita, Colorado

Great stop for a burger, while out for a motorcycle ride with 5 friends. Very clean, great food, and friendly service!

Stopped at Blondie's on our way home. The cheeseburgers were very tasty as were the fries. Everything was fresh and very friendly. It's great that Naturita has something like this. read more

The best burgers in Naturita Colorado! I don't know why this great local burger shop is categorized under "electricians". The burgers were fresh, cooked to order with all the delicious fixin's. Friendly service and not one of the locals gave us travelers the stink-eye. Delicious burgers wrapped in paper with a side order of fresh fries - this is all you could want on a road trip through western Colorado canyon lands! Oh and we ordered a great vanilla shake for the road. The lady behind the counter apologized for it being so thick. (What's the problem there?!) Naturita is the friendly sister town to Nucla (to the east) where i believe "The Hills Have Eyes" was filmed.... read more

Had the green chile burger with onion rings. Delicious! Employees were gracious and patient with our group (5 people). Simple, clean. Bathroom was also clean. If I'm ever by this way again, I'll be stopping in. Others in my party had the brisket sandwich and were very complimentary. read more

Blondies - Dining area. Nice A/C, clean, simple... - Burgers Near Me - Naturita, Colorado

Naturita is a food desert. It's a one-horse town. Your only options for food are Blondies, the Dollar Store and pork rinds from the liquor store. This faux-diner is ok. Nothing special or addicting about the food. On the pricey side for an isolated, po-dunk town. Best thing going for this place is it's location between Telluride and Moab. read more

Great Burgers! While riding the motorcycle from Grand Junction to Moab via CO-141 we stopped in to have a bite to eat. The food was good, prices were great, and the place was clean-enough... This is exactly what we would expect in a burger joint in the middle of nowhere. If you are riding through, it is worth the stop. read more

The friendliest staff for hundred of miles! The grilled cheese take us back to our childhood and the root beer float hit the spot. The impossible burger tasted like a fresh burger! Yum! Definitely will eat here again! read more

We stop here very year on our trip from Michigan-Moab-Telluride. Burgers are awesome. Service is super friendly, a chocolate shake hits the spot. There's a reason we keep coming back! We love this place. read more

As a resident of Naturita, I am well acquainted with this small, local's burger joint. It's been in the area for a LONG time, is the only restaurant that has lasted over the years, and even my own grandmother worked their. Old fashioned testament to the traditional burger and fries. You order and pick up your food at the counter, along with bus your own table (DON'T throw away the red baskets!). The Blondie Burger is the most popular burger and locals eat it up, A LOT! Great place to stop and grab a quick bite on your way through town or to have a really awesome, simple dinner. read more

Blondies - Double Jumbo Western. Not normally on menu, but you can ask for it. More pricey than the other burgers... - Burgers Near Me - Naturita, Colorado

Blondies is great! It's easy to miss as you drive by, but it's a good bet for lunch. We ate here several times while working in the area. I consider it dinner-type food. Place is clean, food is good, staff are friendly, and the prices are very reasonable. Grilled cheese & fries is good; I ordered it several times. Vegetarians note: they have grilled cheese and three different types of veggie burgers! It's not fancy or gourmet, but it kept me happy, fed, and coming back for lunch everyday. read more

Great spot for lunch in this small community. We come here every time we visit. I pretty much always get the Blondie special and the kids hit the arcade. read more

I had not been here for a long time. It has been remodeled and is much larger. I had the fish basket which was an average deep fried cod. The place is clean and the service is good. We may eat here later in the week and try a burger. read more

My wife and I stopped here today for the first time on a little road trip. We ordered the cheeseburgers with fries. Great burgers hand made. I saw the help making them in the kitchen. A kitchen by the way that was spotless and so were the restrooms. The experience was great and the road to gateway was amazing. The chocolate shakes are really good to as are the crispy french fries. The people were great too super polite and friendly. The theme is a fifties diner. We will be going back on our next road trip through town. read more

Food is so-so. Stay away from the pizza. Friendly staff! Would go back, will try something different next time. Had a game room for kids.

Great place to eat!!! Super cute atmosphere. Friendly staff and fast service. So convenient right on Main Street.

Excellent place to make a Pit Stop.Clean ,nice people ,good chow,and reasonable prices.

Great comfort food in a very cool atmosphere. Further, Blondie's contributes to the community. Wonderful, kind people. And TATER TOTS!!!!

Great little spot. Do not miss these friendly folks if you are ever traveling through! I had a Western Burger and it was rather amazing, definitely a welcome surprise when you're on a 100+ mile bike ride. Thick burger, looked hand pattied, with big bacon strips and big onion rings. I think the rings are from a bag, but they're still pretty good for the price. Kinda feels like the place hasn't changed since the 60's; very groovy. read more

Not your regular fast food burger, rather more like a wonderful retro burger 50's style! Very tasty! Friendly staff provides good service and conversation. Nope you can't get all this in your fast food places. We had the patty melt on our second visit that did not disappoint. read more

Great diner style food made fresh. The black bean burger seems to be home made and fresh. Stopped through not knowing what to expect in this one horse town and was rather impressed with this place. read more
