    Really good food and service. We shared a veggie wrap and I'm glad we shared because the half portion was huge and a good for one person. The spicy ranch was so good as well. We also got a iced latte and the pumpkin spice frappe. The iced latte had a good coffee flavor. The inside was pretty hot so sitting outside was actually better. The outside has small and cute tables and shares a patio with the restaurant next door. Our server was so nice and friendly and we were able to get everything we needed.

    HIDDEN GEM! and women owned Stopped here on a drive up to Telluride and I am so glad that we did. This spot is perfect for more intimate groups. They have two rooms you can sit in and someone will come up to you and take your order. Be prepared to take some food home as the portions are amazingly large. Perfect cozy spot. Will totally come back if I drive through Fairplay again. highly recommend. Overall 5/5 stars!

    The reviews drew us in to try this Cafe and we are so glad we did. We love supporting small businesses and these ladies are working hard to be a success. Its not a big place and you are welcomed almost immediately when you step in. There was a warm glow coming from the fireplace and a warm greeting. We decided to split a peach smoothie & Grilled Chicken (warm) Caesar Wrap with chips. It was the perfect amount for us and so fresh. It is so refreshing to have great food, & service and warm hospitality. We wish them much success as it's only been 1.5yrs in operation and they are continually striving to do better and they are already good.

    We took a drive out to Fairplay just for fun and decided we'd stop for a late lunch before turning around and driving back. We like the small, cozy places and picked Mr. Burro over the larger Mexican restaurant next door. Eating at Mr. Burro Cafe is like going to a friends to eat. The atmosphere is clean and relaxed and the food is prepared fresh while you wait. It's probably even a more relaxing experience in the winter if they use the fireplace that's in the main dining area and you order one of their fancy coffees. Their menu concentrates on fresh ingredients, good taste and less grease. You can't get a hamburger, but you can get delicious sandwiches, bagels, salads and wraps. They do serve a simple breakfast if you are so inclined and they have a glass case with freshly baked muffins. The case also had a huge cinnamon roll calling my name so I just had to bring it home for the next morning. In general this is just a wonderfully relaxing place to enjoy a fresh and delicious meal.

    Stopped in today and grabbed a Reuben. It was so delicious. Rye bread was crispy, meat was piled high...it was so good. Their potato salad is also really good. Incredible meal

    Some of the biggest cinnamon rolls I've ever seen!! 8" round by 4" tall, feeds at least 2

    Great service, yummy breakfast. Easy peasy! I'll stop there again when passing through Fairplay.

    Who knew that such a cute little cafe existed in the middle of Fairplay? I was staying at an Airbnb with friends, and the place didn't have coffee as advertised, so we went on a grocery store adventure. En route, I insisted on trying Mr. Burro. The Peppermint Latte was delicious (also very sweet) and I'd want to try the food next time. Or just sit here for a few hours reading and marveling at the cozy décor. It's small, so not the best for large groups.

    chilaquiles

    We were told to check this place out. It was worth the pretty drive from Breckenridge. It is a sweet cozy place! The peppermint mocha was exceptional. My husband got the chilaquiles. That green chili sauce is something to write home about! I had the Eggs Benedict. They were classic and pretty good. The potatoes had lots of flavor. Overall really great meal. After tasting the green chili I wish I had gone with the recommendation of the burrito. Highly recommend!

    Abby S.

    Fantastic breakfast! We tried the chilaquiles, breakfast burrito, and biscuits and gravy. All were 10/10. Pork green chili was awesome; smother it over your burrito!! The hot mocha was a beautiful and tasty beverage. Service was quick, attentive, and super friendly.

    Spicy chai!

    Top tier "women owned" breakfast and lunch place in Fairplay!! We were delighted with the food here. I had a blueberry muffin served with a drizzle of caramel on the plate along with a few fresh blueberries. I also tried the muffuletta sandwich with a side salad. My husband loved the lox sandwich with side salad as well. You get a choice of dressing with salads here, and the lettuce is shredded romaine. We would definitely stop here again when in Fairplay. The service is excellent. Both owners were working behind the counter and also bringing out the food. You order first, they bring it; and you pay at the end. There are two top and four top tables with beautiful decor including a fireplace. It's a very enjoyable space and they work very hard to make sure the customers are happy! Top Notch!!!

    What a wonderful find! My wife and I live not too far from found ourselves looking fur a breakfast spot so we decided to drop in. We're so glad we did. We chose one of only a few tables in the main dining room, which is quite small. The place only seats about 15-20 max. We ordered coffee, which was quite good--not your average cup. We were both looking fur comfort food, so we decided to try the biscuits and gravy breakfast plate. I have to say that we both love a biscuits and gravy. We might even consider ourselves experts in the arena. This was top notch stuff. No tiny portions here. The gravy was thick and creamy, with a delicious texture and slathered over soft, delicate biscuits. It was absolutely divine! The eggs were perfect and the potatoes were seasoned just right. On top of that, the service was excellent! We had a great experience here and we're already looking forward to returning. The hard part will be ordering something different when we know how good the B&G is!

    What a little gem in Fairplay. We came for breakfast and loved it. The huevos rancheros is enough for two people. I also ordered the spicy chai--it was huge and delicious! I highly recommend dining in or ordering takeout. I can't wait to try lunch the next time I am in town.

    If you're heading to the mountains for the weekend or planning a camping trip, make sure to stop by…read moreand grab breakfast or lunch here! Not only is the food absolutely delicious, but they use premium-quality ingredients that really set them apart. The bread on their sandwiches is fantastic, and they've recently started using beef tallow for their French fries, chicken sandwiches, and wings which takes the flavor to another level. They also offer gluten-free options, making it a great choice for everyone. It's a smaller establishment, so be patient if there's a wait it's 100% worth it. The customer service is beyond what I've experienced at some high-end restaurants. While waiting for my food, I got to witness the teamwork and communication between the kitchen staff and front counter crew. These guys were hustling, working efficiently, and clearly taking pride in what they do. It was genuinely impressive to watch. Whether you're stopping in with friends and family or grabbing a meal solo, the atmosphere is welcoming, the music is great, and the overall vibe is positive and upbeat. Do yourself a favor and stop by, you can thank me later! And whatever you do, don't leave without trying one of their homemade ice cream sandwiches!

    Stopped in here because of the Yelp reviews. It was a good choice! It was super busy which meant…read morethat we had to wait a little longer for our food- 15-20 min. The guy behind the counter made sure to let folks know about the wait. Service was very friendly. Our sandwiches were delicious. We got the special and the original chicken sandwiches. Probably liked the special the best. There is only 1 restroom at this place and it was out at back of the building. Considering how busy it was there was a fairly long wait to use bathroom. That was a the one bummer about this place.

I would classify this restaurant as sort of a roadhouse with a large bar, pool table, arcade games, and projection screen. They are set up as a fast casual restaurant ordering food and drinks at the bar and waiting for your order. I had a craving for BBQ so I aimed straight for the vein with their smokehouse chili and I was not disappointed. Hardly any vegetables, but a lot of yummy, smoked, and meaty pieces served in a slightly spicy broth. Their salad looked good and the kids liked their grilled cheeses with side car's of ice cream so everyone was happy.

Jeremiah was excellent with all of the guests who visited while we were there. He was very knowledgeable about their selection of beers on tap and what food would pair well with them. He had our beers poured in no time and the food was out in a flash. They also have a great assortment of games to play, including some pinball machines. This is all set to the appropriate mountain wood/log vibe on the interior. It also appeared to have a great outdoor eating area for the warmer months. This is a must-visit destination in Colorado!
