Pasta Alfredo
Rosa R.

Heard so much about this restaurant, very similar to Cracker and Barrel in California. We tried a variety items, everything was delicious. My favorite was the chicken tenders, crispy, and well seasoned, not dry at all and, the honey butter croissants. Great customer service, even though it was dinner time and busy, we were well taken care of! Honestly don't understand the three-star rating in Yelp, this is a good restaurant that serves comfort food with a smile! Looking forward to coming back next time we're in Colorado.

Grilled Rainbow Trout
Michele B.

Today was top notch for Cheddars for us, and we've been here plenty of times. Service was efficient and super friendly, food was exactly what we wanted, and prices were so reasonable, we paid with cash! Seriously though, for a chain place, we left very satisfied and happy and glad we got to try some new items this visit. It was quiet since it was around 2:30, and the music was a nice mix of new and old tunes, but wasn't blasting us at all. We tried the chicken Caesar pasta salad with the chicken on the side, a request they happily honored, and the (OMG) rainbow trout! Cooked to perfection. We frequent the Springs often, so we will return!

Philly Cheesesteak Sandwich
Cindy R.

While in town with the family, we decided to dine in at Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen. Although they were pretty darn busy, we were seated quickly. The restaurant has plenty of seating and while the atmosphere was hoppin', servers were quick, attentive and tables were cleaned off immediately. They have such a wide variety of dishes on their menu. My son chose the Texas Cheese fries (fries, bacon and cheese with a side of ranch), both hubby and daughter had Philly Cheesesteak sandwiches. One with regular fries while the other had sweet potato fries, while I had their Chicken Fried Steak. Everyone's dishes were made perfectly. Everyone's fries were fried perfectly and crisp, my chicken fried steak was at breaded nicely and crisp and all of the servings on each person's dish was generous. Prices are reasonable and I feel everything was well worth it. If you haven't gone, definitely give them a try!

Top Sirloin Steak, Baked Potato & Green Beans
Lee W.

I really like Cheddar's, they have good food, good service & great prices. Plus there's plenty of parking. As it states in their name Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen...everything is homemade & it tastes it. The decor is inviting, nicely decorated with pretty ceiling fans. We sat in the bar in comfy booths, the music was somewhat loud but then again we were in the bar. Our Server was friendly & attentive. There were many items to choose from on the menu, including many salads, beer, wine & cocktails. They also have lunch combo specials starting at $11.79. I had a delicious 6oz Top Sirloin Steak, that was cooked perfectly with a Loaded Baked Potato & Southern Green Beans, for $15.49. The beans were yummy, very crave-able! If you're looking for comfort food Cheddar's is the place to go.

Buffalo Chicken Wrapper Sandwich
Jamie C.

Had a great experience here Monday night. Restaurant was a bit cooler so I suggest a jacket. The food was great. I feel like we did wait longer than expected, but it was really fresh. I was really impressed with their sauces actually. I'm kind of a ranch snob and thoroughly enjoyed it here. ‍ I actually got the chicken tender appetizer because it came with fries as you can see it's practically a full meal. My friend got the buffalo chicken wrap and we were really shocked at the fact that there was two wraps. Portion sizes go crazy here.

Kids burger
Alyson C.

Overall, I had a great time here. My drinks were amazing. The painkiller is a must try if you enjoy rum and mixed fruit juice. The ribs were a bit dry and the sauce was very underwhelming... the chicken tasted good and I liked the ranch as well. The kid burger was good but a bit dry and the fries were phenomenal!!! I was greeted by so many great servers and had such a great experience and timely mannered service. The views are why you should come here... you must see the views. I sat on the patio and it was amazing!!

Monte Cristo .
Maria M.

Terrible ! Not from scratch! Looked like a frozen loaf . Very pasty . Gunther Toodys makes a Way better Monte Cristo . The fries were good but again served in a tiny cup I was very disappointed. My husband had the fish tacos and he was not impressed. We will not be back .

Croissant style rolls
Krystal M.

I've driven by Cheddars for years and just never had a reason to stop here. Husband suggested we try it out and I was pleasantly surprised. American style food and decor. The staff was very friendly and checked on us often. I ordered a slab of bbq ribs and the hubs had salmon with rice and a couple sides. Broccoli casserole, green beans, and Mac n cheese. Just so we could try a variety and their croissant style rolls. It was all well seasoned, and really nothing to complain about. If you're looking for a classic American style restaurant, this place is a safe bet!

We had such a wonderful experience thanks to our waitress, Billi. From the moment she greeted us, she was warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. She struck the perfect balance of being friendly while also giving us space to enjoy our meal. Drinks were always refilled quickly, and we never had to ask twice for anything. What really stood out was her attentiveness; she noticed little details (like bringing extra napkins before we even asked, and extra fries :)) and checked in at just the right times without interrupting. Service like this makes a huge difference. Because of her, our dinner felt extra special, and we left with smiles on our faces. Thank you, Billi, for making our evening so enjoyable--you're a true asset to this restaurant! We will definitely going back!

Ask the Community - Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen

Do you have any vegan options? The menu unless I'm missing something looks pretty heavy into cheese and meats.

We're going to be in town on Sunday 9/8 for a wedding...are there TVs to catch some of the Cleveland Browns' game at 11a MST?

Have not been there in a long time but do not think there are any TVs. You can go next door to the other restaurant which has TVs and also good food. It is the Colorado Mountain Brewery.

Our family (5) is traveling in our 5th wheel thru Colorado Springs? Cheddar's is one of our favorite places for lunch. Is there plenty of room in the parking lot for our RV?

Great question, Sylvia! Our lot can absolutely accommodate an RV, but as Jeff hinted at it really depends on how full the lot is when you arrive. Travel safe!

One of the few places you can get great food and great drinks…read more The cup of bacon and the fried cheese were both great starters. The fried cheese is very different from your other standard cheeses or mozzarella sticks. The cheese is much more firm with a light fry. The cup of bacon is fatty, salty, with a tiny bit of sweetness. The ricotta gnocchi bolognese has some amazing fresh gnocchi. The bolognese sauce was okay so it's a fine dish but I probably wouldn't get it again. The duck poutine has delicious fresh fries that end up crisp topped with tons of cheese and gravy. Not a lot of duck, but a great poutine overall. Every item is always a treat and unique and makes me want to try the whole menu.

The place is laid out with plenty of tables and booths plus a sizable bar in the center of the…read morerestaurant with seating on both sides. I went solo and decided to sit at the bar where they had three bartenders that would rotate with all the customers making it very efficient and great coverage. The food was very inventive; not your typical fare even for a bistro. I started with the lobster tater tots that were served with ranch. He had the perfect amount of seafood flavor and a super crispy outer; I would recommend. Next, I had the ginger pork and crispy rice dish. This had a large helping of pork that did well with the Asian flavors and that crispy rice for texture; I would recommend. My final was the miso butterscotch tart. You can't go wrong with a dessert that has butterscotch, Biscoff, marshmallow and miso. The only criticism I could make was that the tart was pretty loose, but that did not take away from the flavor. To drink this place has lots of beer taps, a good selection of wine and plenty of interesting cocktails. I chose to have a couple beers and they were both very tasty. I would like to come back with additional people so that we could try more of the menu items. Unfortunately, it is an hour away from where I live, but the next time I find myself down in the springs, I will return.
