Food is good and the service is always very friendly. Sometimes they are very crowded, it's easier to go very early or off hours.

I have read other reviews that lower stars because a place is a greasy spoon. I keep it an even playing field for all - how's the food, quality and service. I love finding small hole in the wall places. Mike's is great, in the same league as the Butcher Block Cafe, with good food at a great value. Ambiance is no frills. Coffee is classic diner...weak, hot, bottomless. Green Chile has a nice flavor. Chile Rellenos were the crispy variety wrapped in a wonton wrapper. Wrapper was on the thicker side. The beef patty and eggs plate was great; wished I could order by temp as I would prefer at least medium as opposed to well done. Regardless, nice char flavor, standard fare hash browns and butter soaked toast-loved it! Parking can be a challenge with a small, tight parking lot. 2 breakfast plates and coffee for under $20. We'll be back. Great old school, greasy spoon diner! read more

I go there several times a week and the food is always good. They have some really amazing items on the menu. They also also have Mexican food and jalapeños on Any dish you want them on. read more

Great diner. Food is absolutely awesome. You have a variety of choices when you come in to this place. The services is also great. Had no issues keeping our drinks full. The inside is very old school and diner like. You will not be disappointed. Little gem in Sheridan. read more

This is literally the only breakfast place we will go to. Fast and friendly service. The food is absolutely amazing and the price is half of what you'd pay at an ihop or Dennys. Biscuits and gravy combo is huge and delicious! read more

Literally an old school diner. The food is excellent and very reasonably priced. Having a burrito? Add the roasted jalapeño. You won't be disappointed by anything you order. It's a busy place, filled with long time locals. The staff work hard, they have to because there isn't a slow time. read more

Really really loved this place. Used to be a great hole in the wall. Unfortunately, today was my family's last meal at Mike's. I ordered the Greek burrito. Comes out with all of the delicious flavoring of freezer burn. Never was asked how our meal was. Waitress tries to nonchalantly drop off our bill. We stop her to let her know that this burrito was way way below expectations. She takes it to the back while blaming the flavor on it being overcooked(she told us before she went to the back they take it out of the freezer to cook). Unless it was cooked in a freezer that was not the taste. To make up for it they took off our $2 a la carte pancake and charged full price for their freezer scraps. As a server myself this unacceptable. You don't comp the cheapest item to make up for your inedible more expensive item. Bye boo. I'll remember the good times but I've got to move on. read more

I can't believe we have never tried this place until today. Perfect little spot. They were packed and every table full and our food still came out super fast. Extremely friendly service, our waitress Carla was great. Food was good and not overpriced like everywhere else. They even made my sons pancake a Mickey Mouse pancake (without our asking) which he loved. read more

What a great value spot! The food was perfect and the variety is insane for such a small place. Only downside is that they forgot my toast but that is by no means worthy of any star loss. Plus, I think they might have just been saving me so I could eat all of the omelet. :) Highly recommend. read more

Don't come to Mike's Café, at least at 11:00. You won't find a place to park! Great Food, great service, and very affordable. Not many places like this left... read more

Talk about a super hidden gem in Englewood. It doesn't look like much from the outside and the parking lot is tiny and always full, but this neighborhood staple has perfected breakfast diner food. They always provide top notch quick service, they have an expansive menu, and excellent diner food. The country skillet comes with diced fried chicken, veggies, potatoes, with eggs and toast is divine. Add a side of green Chile and sour cream to achieve absolute breakfast bliss or crush any hangover. They offer lunch and breakfast anytime of day which means you can order a burger and a salad at 7 am. The locals are friendly and they built up an army of many regulars over the years. Support this small, wonderful business that has perfected breakfast since they opened decades ago. Cheers. Pro tip: park across the street at the middle school if you have a large vehicle or don't want to deal with a packed tiny parking lot. read more

Our favorite spot. Wait can be long but it's what you expect. Fast food is down the street I think it's called Mc something. Haha

Locally family owned cafe. The staff is very friendly and they are always wanting to make sure you enjoy your food. Service is fast and the food is always made fresh. If you enjoy diner style dining, give this place a try. Prices here cannot be beat. read more

Mikes serves up the best green chili anywhere in town. I wish mikes was closer to my house so i could eat there more often. By far its my favorite place for mexican fare!! read more

This is a good old fashioned cafe. Good food , good prices. Kinda busy these days but that's just the times we live in. I'll keep going.

New favorite breakfast cafe. Hard to find a good skillet in this area. Service was friendly.

Mike's has ruined me! I cannot enjoy a burrito anywhere else but Mike's, only Mike's. We love the servers, they are all great!

The food is a combine is of Mexican and American and I has be the same for a while . And used to be a old drive in like sonic

Good food good prices good customer service. Would highly recommend. I make the drive from Thornton that's how good it is.

I've never seen this place before. I was hungry, so I came here to see what it would offer. I ended up ordering the Country Skillet, with a side of pancakes, and they were fantastic. I'd go here again of I'd have the chance. read more

I just want to say that this is the worst place to eat the waitresses are so rude and disrespectful we've been going there for years and there's a couple of waitress in there that are so rude I will never go back there and I will always put bad reviews about them very rude Mexicans. I ordered smothered pork chops breakfast and I got no chili on them because the waitresses were too stupid to listen to the complete order so I had to go home and smother it with Santiago's chili there sorry read more

Um yummm! We decided to give Mike's a try as we were in the neighborhood and we couldn't decide between breakfast or lunch fare. WHAT A PERFECT SPOT TO GRAB A SUNDAY BITE!!! After perusing the endless menu offering everything from french toast to pork chops and chicken fried steak, I decided on my fail safe...Mexican! I ordered chili rellenos which came with eggs, hash browns, beans, smothered with green chili and served with more flour tortillas. A spread easily large enough for 2 people! The chips were homemade and the salsa was absolutely delicious. All of us enjoyed huge platters of home cooked goodness. Then the check arrived....which blew our minds in that our FEAST didn't come to even $6 a person. Wow, crazy good pricing and food! We will definitely be back for more!!! read more

This place was gasssssssssssss highly recommended pancake was good lots of bacon with meals and green chili was good.

Wow. Cannot say how disappointed I am. We LOVE diners and Mike's was always our go to. It was close, cheap and the food was always better than expected. The last time wasn't the best but at least expectations were met. Today...man. There were buckets of what can only be described as black sludge in it clearly visable. Customers were complaining that the men's room was 'backed up' and not one employee addressed it while we were there. My plate had an insect on it. My wife's french toast had a french fry on it. I know because the server told us that but left it and walked away. Smoke was coming into the dining room and we can only assume because the filters and vents aren't and haven't been cleaned properly or enough. We are looking for a new diner because the neighborhood standby will no longer get our money. **My wife was complaining about her food being greasy and inedible and while writing this, she threw up. AVOID MIKE ' S at all costs** read more

My wife and I love to eat our weekend breakfasts at Mike's. It's not as pretty as a lot of other restaurants around town, so if atmosphere is a big draw for you, this is not your place. However, the food is good and the prices are reasonable, so we keep coming back. I like Mike's for an independently-owned, no-frills, but still tasty experience. I recommend you try the Mike's Skillet if you're there for breakfast. However, if you're looking for a five-star, fancy-pants breakfast, you should go pay $12.95 for bacon and eggs at the Original Pancake House instead. read more

Only been here a couple times and have only had the breakfast burrito. The sign says best green chilli in town and though I haven't had any other green chilli in this town I can tell you it's pretty darn good! I will definitely be back to try some of the American breakfast items as the skillets and French toast looked very good! Also affordable which is nice for a sit down restaurant. read more

Mike's Cafe - Breakfast burrito! Green chilli is very delicious! - American Near Me - Englewood, Colorado

Wow! Wonderful food and friendly staff. I never give a 5 star rating.. also it's been about three years worth of visits I'm referencing.

Excellent food and friendly service. A great find in an unfamiliar area. We had both breakfast and lunch entrees and they were delicious! We love the diner atmosphere and eclectic crowd. read more

Robert Irvine needs to visit this place!!!! If I could give zero stars I would. Food isn't that good, funny taste to a lot of stuff. If you visit the ladies bathroom, it reeks of mold and has mold all along the circumference of the floor, makes you wonder what the kitchen looks like. This place is not healthy! read more

The staff are very helpful and work very hard. I have read a lot of bad reviews on here and they are very undeserved. All of the items are under $6 here. If those other reviewers want gourmet breakfasted - they should stay away from Littleton. This is comfort food to me and it is very good. read more

I really don't understand the love affair here. I was looking for some great breakfast and left full, but this is really nothing more than a greasy spoon. If that is what you are looking for, this is your place. The staff is certainly attentive and friendly, but there is a disconnect between what constitutes good green chile. A little less flour and more chile (not Anaheim) would be a pleasant addition. This is an average greasy spoon perfect for a horrendous Saturday morning hangover. read more

We were referred here by a friend and could not have been happier. The food was great. Their green chili had the prefect level of spice. The price was easily $2 cheaper then other breakfast places. You should make this place a weekly stop. read more

Hell yeah, another good greasy spoon! Mexican and American food here. I like the chili rellenos (deep fried wontons, cheddar and jack cheese). The food and the service is good. The green chili is a bit starchy, but hey, it is Colorado. One of the waitresses talks with a cute falsetto, probably intentional but endearing nonetheless. Some of the seats are torn up and haven't been upgraded like the booths at Pete's Lounge. 4 stars for being a decent greasy spoon with good service. Goodbye Village Inn, Perkin's, and Denny's. read more

The "Best Green Chile in Colorado" sign/claim is absolutely false advertising......to the point they should be sued!! Granted, Colorado's standards for green chile are pretty low, but this place is not even on the map of "Good", much less "The Best"! Maybe if you are an 80 year old white man you think this chile is passable, but I can't imagine anyone else truly believes the claim of "Best in Colorado".....certainly not the employees. The food was decent greasy spoon faire, but I have to give them only 1 star based on their ridiculous claim of "Best Green Chile in Colorado". Pick ANY other restaurant on Federal if you are looking for green chile.....this place is NOT it! read more

My sis and bro in law live nearby and love this place. They know everyone and everyone knows them. They always want to take me here. Thinking that they might want a change I recommended a spot on Broadway near Evans. Too loud they said. Well, no. Mikes is often louder. But I am always happy to do Mike's. I had the Huevos Rancheros, very good. They had their usual, didn't even look at the large menu. On a Sunday morn we got the last spot in the lot and the last table. Service is great. Good, local, cheap breakfast and lunch. Don't take your snooty cousin here. read more

Wow! Mikes Cafe is awesome! Visiting family in town and found this place for breakfast. The rellenos were some of the best I've ever had...and that green chili...out of this world. Finally, our waitress was great, seemingly genuinely happy to serve us! I'll probably be back again in my few remaining days in town, it was that good! read more

Mike's Cafe - Sooooo good! - American Near Me - Englewood, Colorado

Keep an eye on your possessions! My elderly father left a brand new iPhone on the table. 10 minutes later he returned to ask if they found it when they cleaned the table. They said "Nobody has seen it" without even asking any of the staff. He asked about the waitress and they repeated "she doesn't know either." He has been a consistent customer there for over 15 years and so he left and went directly to Verizon (who provided excellent service btw) who shut the phone off. After having to pay the deductible on his phone insurance of $250, 2 days later the phone miraculously turned up at the cafe (presumably after they figured out they couldn't use it). When I retrieved it the case was missing of course. Avoid these thieving people at all cost. Also... the cafe is incredibly dirty. Avoid is my suggestion, but if you ignore that warning... keep an eye on your belongings!! read more

Great Mexican food! Low cost fast hit food. Staff is professional and kind. Amanda is out favorite waitress. A must try place if you're on a budget but want quality food. Bean and beef burrito smothered with green chili is what we recommend to try. read more

This place is kind of hard to find considering it's right on Federal. Probably because it's between two slightly taller buildings? I don't know. They have a huge sign out front, and yet I've lived literally across the street from Mike's and didn't even know it! Maybe I just need to have my eyes checked... Anyway- This place has some pretty nasty reviews on Yelp, but I decided to ignore them. Besides, I'm prone to episodes of laziness and even if this place is as bad as people think it is, it's still right across the street, and that alone is a good reason to try it at least once, right? So I walked over to Mike's Cafe this morning. I seated myself in the bar between two older guys with grey beards. What they were having looked really good. The guy on my left had a vegetarian omelet. On my right, a smothered burrito (evidently they serve lunch and dinner items during breakfast time). I looked through the torn menu and nothing really stood out for me. They basically have every dish you would expect a diner to have. After about 2 minutes, the waitress came and I ordered a coffee, which she promptly served, and a country benedict. By this point, the two guys were leaving, so I started reading the newspaper. I didn't finish the article before my plate was in front of me- the steam wafting into my nostrils. I dug right in. I nearly always order the country benedict at diners when it's available. I don't know why. Maybe because it's hard to screw up, and it tastes virtually the save everywhere. So I can't really comment on the food except to say that the country benedict tasted the way it's supposed to. Nothing about it really stood out for me. The portion sizes are pretty big. Things I liked: The variety of dishes. They have everything you expect them to have. It's inexpensive. Service is speedy. Things I didn't like: it's dingy (more so than your average hole-in-the-wall). Menus are old, greasy, and torn. Oh, and they have a bug problem. Not a BIG problem, but I did see a little flea flying around. Overall the place is meh. Not great. Not terrible. Not good. Not bad. It's meh. I'll probably be back, not just because I loathe IHOP enough to consider sharing my food with bugs, but also because I can see the restaurant from my bedroom window. read more
