    This place is so awesome. You just need to stop in there. The bakery is amazing. The coconut macaroons are to die for. The cinnamon rolls are amazing. The rocks on display in there and for sale you can't find anything anywhere near this area. Everyone was very knowledgeable.

    This sign touched my husbands heart.

    Wow! This place was a hidden gem. We visited the railroad museum and spotted this bakery across the street. It was the afternoon and we needed a sweet pick me up. I had an Americano with a frosted cinnamon roll while my husband had a lemonade with a caramel scone. Service was fast and friendly and the indoor seating was charming with all of the wood interior and plants. Do yourself a favor and visit this place. They also have breakfast burritos that looked amazing.

    Pin wheel and an Arnold Palmer.

    We came in after a hike in Dolores and the Arnold Palmers hit the spot! I couldn't resist the homemade pinwheel...flaky and perfect. One of the best snacks I've had in a long time. The staff are friendly and were eager to make us feel welcome. The front porch tables were lovely with the breezy shade. Highly recommended for a short or longer stop in Dolores.

    Terrific new restaurant in Dolores, Colorado. Upscale and a bit pricy for the local market, this…read moreis a great fine dining option in an area without much competition in this genre. Steak Out also has a vibrant bar scene in the back of the restaurant, spilling outdoors to well planned outdoor dining and pub setup. The service is friendly and attentive. Steak Out shifts gears for lunch, offering all kinds of interesting fare for lunch. Not cheap but well worth it for what you get. Much of their menu items are both creative and genuinely delicious. Watch for unusual limits on days open. Currently, seems like they're closed Sunday and Monday and Tuesday, and then open from 11am till closing Wednesday through Saturday, which offers opportunities to drop by not only for lunch or dinner, but in between as well. Central fireplace, very comfortable seating, etc. Very pleasant vibe, welcoming locals and tourists alike. Super to have this option in Dolores, and serving the Cortez community as well. Highly recommended.

The restaurant has an upscale vibe. Not quite white cloth but a place to celebrate a special event. I ordered a Merlot and the 16oz ribeye. Everyone at the table ordered steaks: wagyu steak, New York strip, and the filet mignon. My steak was divine!!! Melt in your mouth amazing flavor. The tomato jam on top was pretty damn tasty too. Although after a while it became too much so I had to move it off to the side. The veggies were cooked perfectly and the baked potato was good. I tried the wagyu and while it was tender and good I much preferred my ribeye. Everybody else seemed to enjoy their steaks. Our only complaint was that we waited an hour and a half for our food. Our reservation was for 1830, we did not get our steaks until 2000. They did give us a complimentary soup or salad for the wait which was nice but 1.5 hours is a little much. But if I were to find myself in the area I would make a stop for this place... I'd just make sure there are no parties lol.

    Anytime I'm anywhere near Cortez, I make it a point to stop by Cold Stone Creamery. There's just…read moresomething special about this location that makes it stand out from the rest. It doesn't feel like a typical chain ice cream shop -- it feels personal, welcoming, and comfortable, almost like hanging out in someone's living room with really good dessert. A big part of that experience comes from the owners, Jeremy and Raedene. You can tell they genuinely care about the store and the people who walk through the door. They've created an atmosphere that feels relaxed and friendly, where families can sit down and enjoy time together without feeling rushed. The dining area is clean, cozy, and inviting, which makes it easy to stay awhile and enjoy every bite. As for the ice cream -- it's honestly the best around. The flavors are incredibly creamy, the ingredients taste fresh, and the portions are generous. Watching the staff mix everything together on the frozen stone never gets old, and they do it with skill and enthusiasm. Whether you're ordering a signature creation or building your own masterpiece, it always turns out delicious. The team working there deserves recognition too. They're upbeat, polite, and clearly enjoy what they do. That positive energy carries through the entire shop and makes the whole experience even better. If you're looking for amazing ice cream, friendly faces, and a great atmosphere, this is the place. I highly recommend stopping in -- you'll quickly see why it's such a favorite.

    The Butcher & The Baker was a great breakfast stop! We pre-ordered our food and walked over from…read moreour hotel, which ended up being a great decision because it was very busy when we arrived. The outdoor patio is pet-friendly, so we were able to enjoy breakfast outside with our dog, Luna. We both had breakfast sandwiches, and they were cooked perfectly. The English muffin was especially good and really made the sandwich. Since we placed a to-go order, we didn't have much interaction with the staff, but everything was ready on time and the overall experience was smooth. We'd definitely recommend it for a quick, delicious breakfast in Telluride.

I knew what I wanted by the time I got to the counter, but then discovered that they weren't available. Some things I wish I had known before I came: -- There is no soup available on Sundays. -- Their breakfast menu is not available on Sundays, just their Sunday brunch, which was not explicit on their website. Ended up getting sunchokes with an over medium egg to go. There's no good place to stand as you wait for your order. Once I got my order I had to doubled back to ask for a napkins and eating utensils once I realized they were not automatically included. The food itself was delicious, and I appreciated the cooked greens that came with as well.
