The Secret's Out: Why Evergreen Bread & Cocktail Lounge is Our Forever Favorite For a few years now, my wife and I have considered this place our little "under-the-radar" sanctuary. But let's be honest--when a spot is this good, a secret stays a secret for about as long as a fresh loaf of their bread lasts on a table. (Which is to say: not long at all.) Here is why Evergreen Bread & Cocktail Lounge remains our absolute go-to: * The Vibe: The atmosphere strikes that perfect, rare balance between sophisticated and soulful. Whether you're there for a quiet morning reflective coffee or a lively evening drink, the ambiance just works. * The Bread (Oh, The Bread!): It's the undisputed star of the show. It's consistent, artisanal, and frankly, addictive. If you haven't tried it yet, consider this your formal intervention. * More Than Just a Bakery: They consistently turn out dishes that are as thoughtful as they are delicious. From the first bite to the last sip of coffee, you can tell the kitchen actually cares. * The People: A restaurant can have great decor, but it's the staff that gives it a heart. The team here couldn't be warmer or more attentive; they make you feel like a regular from the moment you walk in. The Verdict? If you're looking for a spot that nails the transition from "morning bakery bliss" to "evening lounge elegance," this is it. We're already counting down the days until our next visit. Highly recommended--just don't be surprised if you have to fight us for a seat! read more

Everything is always freshly prepared and great. Service and atmosphere are good. They have patio seating as well.

This is my go to restaurant when in Evergreen; it hits the spot every time! We went the Friday after Christmas around 2:30pm and it was quite busy when we first got there, but quickly died down. We ordered the meatball sub, the hot Italian grinder, the BLT, and the soup and salad combo. Everything as usual, was fresh and delicious but I will say since I was last there, their portions and prices have definitely increased and sharing a sandwich between two would totally be fine! read more

I'm mister Heat Miser.... Well I want to be because that's the name of the sandwich that you should get. Basically a glorified French Dip sandwich but wow, just full of flavor. Yes it's a little messy but who cares, it was so so good. And it was plenty big enough to share and they'll give you an extra au jus too! Anyways this place is totally worth the stop in a fast casual concept. We also got a pumpkin chip cookie that was good too. It's a nice interior and friendly service. Loved this place. read more

Sandwiches are elite at Evergreen Bread Co! Worth the trip to find this little spot - upstairs in a cute strip of boutique stores - and they got our order to-go just right, even with some special requests added to the online order form. Grilled cheese with sautéed mushrooms, onions and spinach was delectable, as was the fancy French dip. My cousin said the BLT was the best of her life, and it's not even tomato season! Don't skip the cookies - all of them were fresh baked and totally yummy. It's got a nice cafe vibe so next time we'll eat in. read more

We love this place. Delicious food, coffee, and pastries. Definitely get the monkey bread warmed up!! I enjoyed the chicken biscuit. It was massive and delicious! read more

We had breakfast here before walking around Evergreen Lake. It was a solid choice! We ordered the breakfast burrito with chorizo and green chili and the tomato & chorizo grilled cheese with tomato soup. The grilled cheese even came with a side of potato chips. Portion sizes were generous and filling. The vibe is casual: you order and pay at the counter, food gets delivered to your table, and you bus afterward. Water and to-go containers are self-serve. Definitely low-frills, but the food hit the spot. Not too loud inside. I even saw a few people working on laptops. Great spot for families or groups. I wouldn't go out of my way to come back, but if I was in the area, I'd happily stop in again. read more

Loved this place. Their bread is amazing so makes for amazing sandwiches. Nice views of the mountains. Highly recommend.

It was a very enjoyable visit to Evergreen Bread. There's a nice selection of things to eat. I tried the avocado toast and it was very good. The coffee was excellent. There was plenty of space to sit and enjoy a meal and conversation. The staff was very gracious and the service was wonderful. read more

Always enjoy the fresh bakery items, menu, good coffee and friendly staff. Classic peak weekend mornings place for leisurely breakfast. Today, however, a temporary sign on the cash register said "45 Minutes for Kitchen Items." 45 Minutes for a sandwich? No thanks. Kind of them, however, to give fair warning. Perhaps something odd went down, cook didn't show up etc. Otherwise, would be better to plan adequate staff for peak periods. We will be back because it's a nice place. If going on a Saturday morning, however, might call ahead so see how long the wait is for food read more

What a pitiful sandwich for almost 20 dollars. On top of that, they continually take the Heat miser off the menu. If you can make a French dip then you can make the heat miser. read more

It's always so cool to find hidden gems like this one, so close to home. We took a quick drive into the mountains and headed to Evergreen Bread and Cocktails for brunch. It's always a good sign to see a line too. The staff were pretty fast with orders while laughing and taking good care of each group ordering. We didn't wait long at all and were seated by a window in no time. We both ordered cocktails and breakfast. We shared bites with each other and no one was disappointed. This was def comfort food - you know, the food you have when it's a 20% day (thinking about eating clean and healthy 80% of the time). I thoroughly enjoyed it. There is a reason for those lines. The place itself is super laid back, with a self serve area to grab water, condiments and such. They also have a wrap around patio that we'd love to enjoy when it's warmer. We'll be back. So good. read more

Not sure where to start. Maybe the odor when you walk in, which is heavenly. I stopped by ahead of the holidays for some sweet baked goods and the Stollen did not disappoint. Even those who turned up their noses as bread with dried fruit in it were singing its praises by the end. And the breakfast sandwich? Um, yes amazing. Perfectly cooked egg, flavorful cheese and then those potatoes that came along with--just the right amount of heat. I will be back! read more

Awesome breakfast!! We had the chicken biscuit and it was HUGE!! The breads and pastries are all on point. read more

Delicious bread! I had the burrito & my wife had soup & a sandwich, both great. Definitely a hidden gem.

Great breakfast, best place to eat in Evergreen. The Cibatta is so fresh and tasty. Highly recommend!

Two things!! The most amazing almond croissant! Loaded! I can't stop thinking about it! And the Stout 14 hour braised corned beef brisket, two eggs, balsamic onions, fire-roasted poblano peppers, horseradish parsley crema, and chives, served with breakfast potatoes and French country sourdough toast. This is something you must try at some point! Both these solidified my admiration for them. I want them in my life like forever! I was a fan before. But I wanna live here. ( if they will allow me): You haven't been? Go now! read more

Yummy food and great views. Sat on the patio with my pup and enjoyed lunch. The kitchen forgot to put cheese on my sandwich but the woman at the counter got it fixed right away. They even have bottles of wine and day old bread specials. We got a few kinds of sourdough, and enjoyed looking at the cute shops all around after. They have their own parking lot too which is nice. read more

I was out for my Saturday AM MC breakfast ride, and wanted to try a new spot in the Evergreen, So I consulted with Yelp, of course that directed me here to the Evergreen Bread and cocktail lounge. Once I realized it was upstairs, I went in and waited in line. It's quite popular and well received ( busy), so it must be good! The way it works is You order and they give you a number and they deliver the food to your table. They were busy making bread right in front of us and they had numerous danishes and pastries that were obviously freshly made as well. I was tempted to get one and I probably should have, but I ordered the old standby smothered bacon burrito, and honestly I wasn't that impressed. When I order a smothered burrito, I expect that it will be slathering with green chili with melted cheese on top also. What I received was a sprinkling of cheese on the top and green chili on the side. Overall it was pretty good, but it just didn't blow my skirt up. If I'm in the area I will try it again and get something more bread like and I'm sure I will have a higher rating. Oh yeah, and by the way their coffee was great! read more

Always consistent and good! I tell everyone I know to try it out. Yelp, why do I have to have 85 or more characters? read more

I think this place is relatively new to Evergreen. It's on the second floor of the plaza it's in but not difficult to find. The food is delicious. I'll just start there. I ordered the spicy Italian which is my standard order at any deli or sandwich shop I go to. They asked what kind of bread I wanted, and I said baguette as if I would get it on ciabatta. I thought it was a very good Italian sub, but it was definitely not spicy. There was a steady stream of customers that came through. I'd say about half stayed to eat and half got food to go. Everyone else in my party got grilled cheeses. Those also looked amazing. The breads behind the counter all looked great and I'm sure we will get some at some point. The coffees look to be predominantly self serve, so if you order a cinnamon coffee, you get to put the cinnamon in yourself. Also, reusable silverware is at the end of the bar. It's the same place the disposable silverware is as well. We weren't told that so I looked like a fool when I asked where I could get some. There are a couple of various oils and charcuterie paraphernalia for sale there as well. Lastly, the bread lounge is great for people watching! Go eat there and watch your neighbors! Maybe we'll see you there! read more

The food was next level. This is everything you would want out of a mountain get away place. Straight out of a hallmark movie. There wasn't one thing that wasn't meticulously perfect. I got biscuits and gravy, which I was concerned would be missing out after seeing the pastry selection. I was wrong. Every element was flavorful and went together perfectly. Amazing. We still got pastries to go, because we couldn't pass them up. A taste of heaven for later. 10 out of 5 stars. read more

Biscuits & Gravy is the BEST I have had, grilling the fresh biscuits gives an amazing texture and flavor. Seasoned potatoes, bacon-pickled onion garnish...chef's kiss. Friendly staff, clean, neat dining room. Add this to your must have list! Took a bite of the hash and it was excellent as well read more

That was delightful! Had brunch on a Saturday at 11, it was lively but we didn't have difficulty finding a place to sit. The baked good are top notch, and they had samples out which tickled my sweet tooth when I definitely had no more room to eat after the hearty breakfast. I got the avocado toast and added eggs and bacon, my hubs got the miners plate. Ample food, cooked perfectly, over the best sourdough. No notes! read more

When I visit from NC, a stop at the Evergreen Bread Lounge is a must. The sandwiches are incredible and the bread divine.

One of my favorite spots for breakfast and lunch. Amazing food! Ordered lunch today and decided to have a glass of organic wine and was shocked it was so expensive. $17.40 for a glass of Chardonay! I spoke to the manager and he was extremely nice and explained that it is an 8 oz pour, but thier glasses are decieving. He proved it, poued it and gave me the glass - which was very generous and not expected. They have a great happy hour and I highly recommend going for adult beverages during this timeframe - but order wine by the bottle. They also have a great happy hour food menu and the stufffeed mushrooms are to die for! Charcuterie board is the bomb too... read more

My husband and I aren't the biggest breakfast people, but we absolutely devoured our breakfast sandwiches! They were so customizable and we loved all of the options they offered. Will return! read more

We arrived after driving from Steamboat Springs to meet friends, finding we had 15 minutes until closing. They made us feel SO welcome!! They told us to order whatever we wanted and that we could stay there and eat. We had some tea, wine and bread. We ordered the Cheese Platter and 2 Ham and cheese croissants, which were delicious! It was the kindness of the staff as well as the delicious food that will bring us back. read more

The food here was absolutely amazing! We had the eggs benedict, breakfast sandwich and the monkey bread. All of their bread/dough is made in house and it was so tasty. They also had free samples of their sourdough to enjoy while we waited in line. The service was quick even on a busy weekend morning. They have plenty of seating indoor and outdoor. The vibe was cozy and the patio is dog friendly and had a water bowl! read more

went here for breakfast and lunch while we were in town for a wedding. Great options for both meals. amazing baked goods. Their online pick up was extremely helpful on our way back from a hike during a busy day read more

Cute spot with flavorful and filling food, kind and friendly service, and pleasant dining dynamic. I stopped here for a latte and avocado toast after a 6mi hike and thoroughly enjoyed my visit. It was very popular with a 10-15min wait in line on a Sunday, but worth it. 10/10 would recommend if you're in Evergreen! read more

I was visiting from out of state and found this gem for dinner. It was a Saturday evening and hardly anyone was there, which was surprising! I had their variation of the French 75 & the Happy Hour charcuterie (yes, happy hour on Saturday!) Both were delicious and I would love to visit again to try other items on the menu. The outdoor seating with mountain views was icing on the cake. read more

Such a cute shop that's actually more of a restaurant where you order at the counter rather than a straight up bakery. I loved the rhubarb and strawberry danish it was so so good. We also had the white chocolate pistachio cinnamon roll type thing. That was decent but the main star was the danish. They also sell gourmet goods like butter and spreads in their fridge that looked so good and I have to go back and buy some sometime. read more

Lucky find! We tried to go to Dandelions, but they are shutdown and a nice local gentleman that was getting coffee next door strongly recommended the Bread Lounge. He said we wouldn't be disappointed, and he was right! Exceptionally nice wait staff, and very large selection of options. It took awhile, but the portions were large. I enjoyed the breakfast platter (although I was given some tough sausage rather than the bacon I ordered) and the wife really liked the French toast. The crispy sourdough toast was really good. It's in a strip center, but the simple outdoor seating gives decent mountain views. read more

Visited again and this time had the Turkey, Bacon & Brie sandwich and my mom had the veggie sandwich with pumpkin pesto. We also had a pastry. The food was totally delish!! We also had a Lavender oat latte. It tasted great but could have used a little more matcha for the $7.45 price. Overall, Bread Lounge is a must-try! read more

Solid bakery with great fast casual food options. Love the bottomless coffee, clean comfortable seating and jolly atmosphere. I do wish the chicken biscuit sandwich had more than a little tenderloin on it. Seems a tad small of a portion for the price, to be honest. read more

This is exactly the type of place you want in a remote mountain town. Fresh baked breads, endless coffee on deck, an assortment of brunch items and even booze when it's later in the day. Indoor seating may be on hold, but there are spaced out tables outside if you brave the cold! We ended up coming here two days in a row for brunch. There aren't a ton of options in the area, which is why I personally think the overall star rating is a tad high for what it is. However, the baked goods are really good and what I recommend when coming here! First day ordered the Biscuits and Gravy. The biscuit itself was flaky and delicious. I expected more oomph from the gravy. It's hard to find real deal Southern food out here. The Cinnamon Toast is worth ordering as a starter. It sounds simple, but it stole the show for me. Our visit the following day was much better, so I'm really glad we went back! The Smothered Burrito was great, with warm yet mild heat from the Green Chile. The portion size was gargantuan, too. Don't skimp on the pastries. The Eggnog Scone, Apricot Danish and Kouign-Amann were stellar. Must orders! Cool spot in Evergreen on the second floor of a shopping plaza. Great views of the mountains if you decide to sit outside! read more
