    Food was cold
    Rashmi V.

    This place is soooo over-rated. First impression, the hostess I guess her name is Rosa. She is super rude and doesn't even know customer service and her quote times for wait are super off. First she told us 30mins and it literally jumped to 50 mins. What a nightmare if I would have known the food was going to be crappy I would have skipped. Anyhow the food was so average I think Dennys is better the hashbrowns were cold the scramble was cold and our pancakes were whatever. Total waste of money and I would never ever come back. An extra star for our server but they need to do better with food and that hostess.

    Outdoor, dog friendly with music created a nice ambiance, but no view of Main Street people-watching or the river (I'm being spoiled) Service from Brazilian waiter was superb. He definitely understood the bottomless coffee mug concept. Biscuits and Gravy are Not Great. In fact, worst in Breckenridge. Biscuits were good but gravy was bland, skimpy and without any sausage. Meh.

    Good coffee!

    Yummy breakfast today. Their coffee is always fantastic. I went with my standard hangover burrito, which is large and filling. It could've been a little hotter, but it was fine. My wife had a build-your-own omelette, remembering to hold the peppers, which were too crunchy last time. She just got avocado, cheddar cheese, and spinach in her omelette, and she was happy with her choice. We also splurged and split one of the huge columbine cakes like we usually do. It's about the only time either of us get pancakes, and they really are that good. Columbine is always at the top of the breakfast list when we're in Breck.

    This place was packed! However I was able to grab a seat at the bar which had enough room for myself and others to eat a meal with no issues. The barkeep was friendly and knowledgeable. Anyway, my food came out pretty quickly and I had to say I wasn't disappointed. The pancake was very generous in size and even my meal wasn't small in size. The pancake was on the thin side but made up with its light and warming taste. The biscuit was cooked just how I like it, soft and light, added some strawberry jelly and it was perfect. My hash browns weren't too exciting or memorable, that lacked flavor or season but I did what I could with the salt and pepper available. The same could be said about my omelette as well, while it was nice in size and pack with meat and cheese, it was bland all the way through. The saving grace was the syrup that got poured on top. Overall I enjoyed the meal and would go back if I was back in town.

    It's pretty busy inside, tucked in the back of some buildings. The server was very nice. - Bloody Mary 2.3/5 It was ok a Bloody Mary. - Huevos Rancheros 4.6/5 Very light tasting huevos rancheros. Lots of shredded lettuce. It's tasty with the green chile. - Porky's Ham Steak Special 3.2/5 Thick cut ham steak. Hashbrowns are not crispy sadly. Eggs cooked well. Just a normal ham steak. - Side of Red Bean Chili 5/5 Super yummy red bean chili. Free parking in lot and on the sides. Check the signage.

    Opened and Seating promptly at 730am. Warmth enveloped us with the smells, smiles, and decor. Chris Stapleton radio creates the welcome warm ambiance. Meal came out quickly. It looks so good, I Forgot to take a photo before I took some bites. Will we return? Absolutely. Great spot.

    Cozy mountain town cafe! Nothing fancy but great service and food. I don't believe they sell alcohol, but I had one of the best lattes I've had there! Will definitely be back next time I'm in town.

    My sister had been here for breakfast previously and enjoyed it, but what a disappointment. There was hardly anyone there (on a Wednesday around Noon) so the service was okay. The Hangover Burrito, sweet cream pancake and Greek Salad were good but most breakfast items were bland and flavorless. The hash browns were especially offensive; tasting like day-old reheated potatoes. I have literally never been to a restaurant where the hash browns did not taste fresh. I asked the server about it and she said they were "making them all day" so I asked for a new order and she came back within 30 seconds ... Clearly not freshly made. While a bit warmer, they had the same bland, cardboard consistency of the first order. My husband doused his in ketchup to make them tolerable but I didn't even waste the calories. The biscuit that came with my omelette was also terrible; it seemed almost dehydrated (clearly also not fresh). You have to leave the restaurant (go back out through the entry door and down two flights of stairs) to use the restroom, which is actually the restroom of the bar below. Overall an odd breakfast experience.

    The food here was so good! Plenty of seating inside but we chose an outdoor option since it was a nice morning! Great service and food all around! We would definitely go back.

    Original French Toast

    Columbine Cafe is just off the main strip of shops and restaurants, tucked away in a courtyard with an unmarked entry. Put your name on their wait list, but don't stray too far as the 20 min wait for us was only 12 minutes and they only hold the table for 10 minutes. The atmosphere is cozy and busy. It's obvious this is a popular place, and the staff did a fantastic job of getting our order to us quickly without making us feel rushed at any point along the way. In all we ordered a Courtyard breakfast with French toast, bacon, over easy eggs, and a fruit cup, the Columbine eggs bennedict with extra crispy hash browns, orange juice, grapefruit juice, and an oat milk latte. Our food arrived promptly and our order was correct down to the crispy hashbrowns. The poached egg was perfectly prepared, and the thick slice of ham was sweet, smoky, thick, and tender. Hollindase sauce was a little on the sweet side for my liking, but all in all was fantastic. The courtyard breakfast was also fantastic. The French toast was picturesque and nicely prepared. Real maple syrup would have been a nice touch as the syrup did have a bit of a sticky/stringy consistency. The fruit cup was lovely and included fresh strawberries as a pleasant surprise! The bacon was thick and tasty. At the end of our meal the check was handled very quickly. In summary this is a family friendly spot, with a mountain cabin atmosphere, good for boisterous conversation and a hearty meal.

    Took my girls here for Breakfast while my husband went snowboarding! Staff were so friendly and attentive! Their portions are big as well! My girls were able to share one plate and still had left overs.

    The fact that this cafe offers a vegetarian pepper white gravy completely sold me as biscuits and gravy are one of my favorite indulgent food and it's so hard to find a spot that doesn't serve sausage gravy. I was so happy with my breakfast here and could have licked the plate if that wasn't generally frowned upon in public. The biscuits and gravy come with hashbrowns and I opted to add two scrambled eggs with cheese to make it a complete meal. I had to try the apple pie cider, which is a spiced apple cider with cinnamon syrup and caramel syrup topped with whipped cream and cinnamon. It was so good and the perfect cozy drink for a winter day.

    They give you plenty of food.

    We wanted a good breakfast before hitting the slopes. This is the spot! Nice portions, fast and friendly service. It had a nice, cozy atmosphere.
