Ate lunch after Rock Creek Farm and won't go back. The food was bland. The service and food delivery was slow. I even fell asleep at the table waiting on our food. The pancakes are dense and chewy. They also had a hint of coffee but I don't know why. The yogurt for my younger one's meal was forgotten. The hash browns were greasy and bland. My husband said his gravy tasted like it was from a package instead of scratch. The waitress only came back to drop off the check. Really was a huge disappointment overall as far as food goes but it didn't stoop to one star level. read more

We go to Great Scotts several times a month. I must say, under its current ownership and management, it has gone down hill as far as pricing and service. For the most part, the food is good, but not really worth the current prices. We went there tonight, got taken to a table, and it was probably about 10 minutes before a server even acknowledged us. The family that got sat next to us was acknowledged almost immediately. The guy that got sat behind us sat there for 10 minutes, was never acknowledged, and he got up and walked out. With the exception of a few longtime servers, service here is very inconsistent. read more

So we've been away from here for awhile, probably just to let the newness die down. We went to Gunther Toodys the previous week and that's what prompted us to go back to Great Scott's. We went in around 9am and greeted ad seated immediately . Waitress was courteous and attentive. Our meal came in pretty reasonable time considering the amount of political that were there. Our meals were cooked to our order and you can pretty order off the entire menu. And one thing they have added since our last time in here is alcohol if you are looking for that with your meal. Prices are reasonable and you get your monies worth. I like the 50's style environment and the nostalgic items around. I WOULD recommend this dining establishment read more

Tuesday night we ordered a meal for pick up. Food was great one shake order was wrong but overall a great meal. Friday we decided we needed another milk shake. Requested four malts and told 15 minutes. No problem took 30 minutes they were a little bit busy half full restaurant. But after all that three shakes were wrong and no malt any any if them!‍ Really too bad could be a nice place maybe they are under staffed or whatever. We were really disappointed. read more

My family and I have been coming here every since I need to Colorado. It's one of those feel-good hang out spots. Makes me feel like I'm a little boy in the 50s, leave it to beaver, if you know what I mean. Most the time we hit this place up for breakfast, we had him make night shakes as well. I guess you could say it's our go to spot for 50s fun time. A few tips, you have to pay a dollar if you wanted to split your meal in the kitchen between two people. That would be a negative. A positive tip one night a week they do half price shakes and they are delicious! If you want to load it up with an adult beverage and I'll mix that into that ice cream as well. read more

Great Scotts Eatery - Good times at Great Scott's - Diners Near Me - Denver, Colorado

I had an order for 2 entrees delivered. Since we're in a motel, I requested two sets of utensils. I checked the box and put it in the notes. The order had no utensils, the butter package for my baked potato was open and empty. I highly recommend that you do not have your food delivered from this shack. read more

Great food as usual, and the customer service was splendid! Jackie our server was very busy and was able to still provide amazing service for us! Party of 11 and we sat very comfortably! read more

I would love to review this place but. Went 3-13 at 2:pm for a late lunch hostess seated us quickly and that was it. We were ignored, so after about 15 minutes we got up and left told the hostess why and her response was "Oh well". read more

Been going here since I was a little girl. My favorite place up until recently. I think they switched up recipes or chefs cause the food is not what it was. Their beef vegetable soup was always the 1st thing I'd order. It's horrible now and a few of their other dishes have changed too. It's so sad, because I loved going here. read more

Totally disgusting food. Over priced and soul-less garbage. There's so many better places for breakfast.

I gave a star for the good coffee !! I ordered a veggie omelette with sausage, and pancakes WOW was this gross the omelette had thick melted cheese on it was like a big ball of eggs- veggies all scrambled and honestly I think it was fake sausage, I even tried to use salsa with it to see if it would be better but nope , pancakes without the syrup tasted like paste , I couldn't tell the waitress cause she never came back to ask if we was good because we weren't , this place went down hill and I wouldn't waste my money here .. read more

Great Scotts Eatery - Veggie omelette, hash browns - Diners Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Normally this is our spot, There will be an occasional mis hap like eggs under cooked or over cooked but the staff always takes care of us. Total not the case tonight, The wife and I love the shrooms as our go to appetizer and we also had a few issues in the past where the are still frozen in the middle or over cooked, I get it it happens but like always the staff makes it right, so not the case tonight! Our shrooms were so over cooked not even a fork could Penetrate them!! Lol no lie. We had one of our favorite waitresses leave due to her shift ending so we explained the mushroom situation before she left. Our replacement waitress was so kind to give us 15% off our 8.99 shrooms lol that's a whole 1.35...... all I can say is wow!! read more

I live close by so over the years we would eat there. The last few times the food was just terrible. The most recent and the last time for a long time, I ordered a burger with cheese was over cooked (very dry)the fries came soggy ,crispy and one was raw, I added mushrooms and they put about 5 small slices on top. The waitress gave good service but it won't make up for bad food. read more

Came in here while on our way to Idaho, after leaving Denver and it was very nice. The whole look of it was a 50's diner. Elvis and Beatles stuff, records on the wall, old corvette couch. The food was really good. Had the Man O Man deal and had pancakes, hash browns, bacon, sausage and eggs and were all cooked perfectly. read more

I am a sucker for diners. This is the one that will be in heaven. Outstanding value and great food. Well recommended.

Great place, great food, great service, great prices... take people here all the time. Hang ten burger is one of the best Hawaiian style burgers you can get in Denver and I have been eating burgers here for over ten years XD read more

I usually like Great Scotts - the food is generally consistent and the service is decent. However, not sure we'll be back any time soon. Came for a late dinner tonight and I was sorely disappointed. As always the service was okay. My food was okay. My son's burger had a hair hanging from it. Seriously? Ick. But then add insult to injury and don't bother to offer a discount or comp his meal? Shame on you Great Scotts - that's simple Restaurant 101. read more

First time there. Dug the 50s diner theme and the music they were playing. We waited 25 minutes for a table. After seated we were asked if we wanted drinks and if we'd like to order. We said no as we just got on the digital menu. Once everyone was ready to order we had to wait til she decided to come back. Our appetizers, soups and salads were good. Our main food not so much. All of our meals were not hot, cold mashed potatoes. Not impressed. read more

They always leave something out of the order and food is always old. This place used to be good before new management came around. When spoke with him he was not holding the organization accountable at all but instead passing the blame unto the customer. We will never go back again. read more

My friend and I were looking for a good diner kinda late at night. Found this gem, and I can't wait to go back! I love the classic environment, cars, and delicious food! I had the stuffed biscuits and I highly recommend! Our waitress was super awesome, and the whole staff was very laid back and friendly. Reasonably priced as well! Love this place! read more

The food is always good there, but sometimes I feel like the servers have too much on their plates so they get spacey and it takes a bit longer to get your items, or refills. read more

Came in this place for breakfast this morning and was a little disappointed because it wasn't as good as it used to be. I actually haven't eaten here for many years, but remember the food tasting a lot better than it does now. The French toast is still pretty good, but the rest of the food was just okay. On the other hand, the service is good! The waitress was very attentive and checked in on us frequently, as well as very polite. The restaurant was clean and had an old 60's diner vibe to it, so pretty cool. Overall, we'll give Great Scott's another try as my mother in law and father in law come here quite often and rave about this place. Updates to follow my Foodies! read more

This place is so good! It's quality food that a family can actually afford. They have excellent breakfast (skip the pancakes though) and great burgers sammies and dinner plates. The staff is friendly and efficient. Oh by the way...MILKSHAKES!! Like a million and one flavors like blueberry and peach. Yummyyyyy!! read more

I have been coming here for over 18 years now, and the last two times have been very disappointing, the floors are dirty with sticky residue on it, my tea had floatyes in it, if you look closely between the forks they had dried up food, the tables are sticky from dirty rags going over and over on it. You first walk in you can smell the dirty air, this restaurant needs the Health Department to inspect, I can only imagine what the kitchen looks like when they make our food, will NOT BE GOING BACK, good luck to the ppl that still goes. read more

The food was okay, nothing too good outstanding. Prices were really good, though. The customer service was really good as well.

HIDDEN GEM: Great Scott's Strawberry Shortcake French Toast! It is a 10/10. Yum yum yum. Plus the staff at Great Scott's is so helpful and attentive. We went on two different busy sundays and we felt like the only people in the restaurant. They made sure we had everything we needed and it was all delicious! BONUS: the decor and design of the restaurant is diner themed. I believe it's meant to be the 60s era. Super cool! read more

I came hungry looking for huge plates and great costs, neon, and red pleather seating, and was not disappointed. When you first come in there is a basket of cinnamon rolls free to eat while you wait. This gesture sets the tone for the rest of your visit. There is plenty of seating, so I imagine wait times wouldn't be too long during busy times, we were seated within five minutes on a Sunday afternoon. Kind, funny, and non-obtrusive waitstaff are competent and create a comfortable atmosphere. Soda cups and coffee mugs will never be caught empty, and expect to leave fatter and happier than when you came in. Would definitely go back. read more

We wanted a big booth for party of 5. only 2 of us were there others were 3 minutes away. hostess said she could not seat us till full party arrived. We have been going to this place since it opened and never been told this especially when they were half empty! I asked to speak to a manager her response was that they have people with parties of 15 or so and then only 2 of them show and they set there for hours. What a phony excuse!!!!! I told her we have come there all the time for years and she looked around and said we can go ahead and seat you this time. I told her never mind I won't be back and she turned away like no big deal. I will be letting my friends that also have gone there for many years about this service and bad management, they won't be back either. read more

My wife and I just came from there and I am appalled at the lack of service. A man came in after my wife and I were seated and got drinks and was going to get his order taken. We walked out. This place is advertised as an eatery. My question is why do people of color still get treated like second class citizens when my money that I work hard for is just as green as the Caucasian man seated after us. I would like to make a plea to ALL people of color to boycott this obvious den for prejudice. I am a professional and I know what racial prejudice looks like.... and it looks like Great Scotts Eatery. I have frequented this establishment in the past and now I will not spend another dime at any place that doesn't treat ALL people of ALL colors with the same respect. And to believe this is America! read more

Until Friday we have only had lunch here. It's been good every time. Friday we met some friends and decided to go for breakfast. We all enjoyed it very much. Everything was hot and tasty. Bacon and hash browns nice and crispy. Definitely will be back read more

Good diner food, fun nostalgic atmosphere, and wonderfully accommodating to our large party. We had about 8 people, and service was friendly and quick. Let me just start off by saying that I can still almost taste the savory green chile sauce that topped a few plates. Coming from a Californian, finding a place in Colorado that has a good chile sauce is a gem! We started off with the green chile and cheese tater tots. I'm still twitching with how good it was. My husband got the Big Boy breakfast burrito and it was huge! Definitely a knife and fork meal. It was so full of flavor with crispy bacon inside and well cooked potato. They top it all off with that green chile sauce, and it oozes with happy burrito time. I opted for the Loaded Jalapeno Bacon Burger, and I was feeling adventurous, so I got it with the gluten free Multigrain Honey Bread. The burger ingredients were great, and by itself, the gluten free bread was top notch. You could even get that bread and spread butter all over it for a good snack. The curly fries were the standard type, but they were just what I had wanted as a side. This place also has some fun alcoholic drinks. I opted for the Twisted Root Beer Float and my husband got the Irish Mule. I highly recommend the Root Beer Float. The Mule was standard, but no complaints from the husband. Everyone in our party was stuffed to the gills with no complaints about anything. read more

Don't sign into wait line on yelp. We did as it was a Saturday. When we got there the manager-"we don't use or have yelp wait list"-showed it to him. Oh well-wait is 30-45 minutes. Also don't be there and be meeting anyone who may be a few minutes behind you as "they won't seat you unless you are all here". Both outdated policies. Food and service were fine. read more

This place has amazing food. Portions are huge for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Do not believe the bad reviews. Try it for yourself. You will not be disappointed. I go once a week. It's that good. read more

So, we ordered from here thru Doordash & there's nothing like eating country fried steak with your fingers bc they didn't give us any utensils! Also, the chorizo burrito my hubs ordered was more like a potato burrito that happened to have some chorizo in it! I ate the smattering of eggs & country fried steak that was cut up for me...so that I received LESS steak! This was served on top of hash cubes...great more potatoes! And I'm still hungry! No, I'm not impressed & I'm not giving a good review! read more

Great Scotts Eatery - Diners Near Me - Denver, Colorado

I find it odd there haven't been more negative reviews. I've been eating here for a while, both ordered from them and ate in. Everytime I get my food there is something wrong with it that ruins the while thing, whether that be soaked buns, too much sauce, or bland taste. I cook a lot, and there's so many things they could do to improve the meal but they don't know how. Anyways I end my rant with why I became so angry with them today. I ordered through Uber eats to get a veggie omelette and some fruit. It arrived 30 minutes later than expected (50min total), by fault of the restaurant because the driver got here in ten minutes. It was all cold, not even warm, and bland. The eggs we're dry. All, and I mean all, of my fruit was bruised and gross. Listen, I'm not a picky eater but I know 10 year old that have made better omelettes. Take it from someone who has wasted money here too many times, go to Gunther Toody's if you want good 50's atmosphere and great food. The two thing Great Scott's has is good atmosphere and water. Edit: I should add that taste isn't the biggest issue. I believe my biggest issue is they don't care for the people who order with Uber. It's a real kick in the rear when you pay 20 bucks for a sloppy burger and small amount of fries when it takes about an hour to get here. Should I be punished for using Uber? read more

Great Scotts Eatery - Here's all I could eat. It was as bland and mushy as it looks. - Diners Near Me - Denver, Colorado

I usually love great scots I live a few hours away and normally make this a go to spot while I'm in town. Today was just terrible service ( I walked out) picture this the manager and two other servers not ten feet from us. We waited 10 minutes no one stopped by the table to even get drink orders. The manager finally noticed us after she was done playing with a toddler to see if we been helped. I lost it and said no and walked out. The manager didn't even seem sorry. Also 8 should not our Server was Brandi I dont think we saw her at all however i did see like six other servers. read more
