Thought I would try a local non-corporate ma & pa for breakfast, and have driven past Nancy's Cafe a million times, so why not, I love to support the little guy. Well....hmmmmmm.....let's start with the food, because the decor is at best, dismal. The food was okay...I guess what you would expect for an all American order that included biscuits & gravy, 2 over easy eggs, hash browns and bacon just over $12.00. Nothing special, but decent portions. Unfortunately the gravy is without sausage, just gravy, 2 over easy eggs with one runny like water, 4 large pieces of bacon and like at home hash browns. The staff was super friendly and the food was quick to arrive. Now for the view...I really wished they would do something with the interior. The establishment has been there for well over 20 years...but the decor looks like it's been there for 75. The vinyl booths are torn and decrepit, the walls are ragged as is the flooring and lighting. Bottom line...if you want an old school breakfast, it's worth a try. If you're looking for ambiance...continue looking for another location. read more

Stopped in for a snack and decided to split a Patty Melt and was initially unsure of what to try. We made a good choice and even though the Patty Melt was good, the fries were some of the best I've had. Seasoned and crispy. I would go back for just the fries. Looking forward in trying something else read more

Nancy's Cafe - Patty melt and fries - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Westminster, Colorado

I've lived in this area for 20+ years and have always seen Nancy's Cafe but never had an opportunity to stop in as there are a couple other diner places we frequent in the area. One of those places was closed this past Sunday so we stopped in here to give them a try. Wow, great food, very reasonable prices with stellar services. Staff were friendly, made great recommendation.. and those hash browns asked to be crispy... they definitely delivered. Food and service - definitely 5 stars. Took off 1 star for the very humbling dining room and lumpy booth seat... I had the steak and eggs, and rarely do I get a steak done to the correct temp at a diner but Nancy's nailed it. The pancakes were soft centered with crispy edges and I have a thing about syrups, they should come warm and happy to see they didn't just put the plastic bottles in warm water and actually took the time to put it in a stainless steel dispenser. I'm always torn for places like this that has carpet in their dining room as I know it can get slippery if they had bare floor... but try to focus on how the tables/chairs were clean and the food is tasty. Will be back again and Nancy's is no longer on the back up list. What a gem! read more

We had been going there for over 15 years, while Nancy owned it. Then, cockroachs everywhere. We haven't been back since. read more

Have stopped here a couple of times when I need to get away from my office. I guess this is a dive, meaning that some of the upholstery is torn and nothing has been to modernize the decor. But the clientele seem to be regulars and very friendly. And they put out some good food! Also, friendly service, food comes out quick and prices are reasonable. Worth a try if you're in the neighborhood. read more

Nancy's Cafe - Ultimate skillet with chorizo and side of pancakes, yum! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Westminster, Colorado

Could use an update inside. If you didn't already know about this spot I'm sure you would drive right by it. Even after going twice I have to make sure to stop driving by. Small and hidden on the south corner of this shopping complex. The sign out front isn't much. Inside it's not overly bright and the decor could use an update. The prices are great. The service is friendly and fast. Who doesn't love a greasy spoon? Breakfast. Lunch. And dinner. Have only opted for the breakfast options because I love pancakes. Get two as a side but their consistency is excellent. Little butter and a little syrup. Perfect. Had the two eggs scrambled and cheese inlet on different visits. Hash browns are cooked well but not overly crisp. Right at that sweet spots and the price and portions are great. Old school food, vibe, and prices you can't complain about. You can order breakfast or dinner items al la crate if you like. I've been happy with wIth the preselected menu options as is however. They also offer daily specials so be sure to check the whiteboard when you first enter before being seated. read more

Four stars for the classic breakfast vibe this place has going on. It reminds me of Colorado when I was a kid: a lot emptier, less hipness, but cheap good eating. That's what you'll find at Nancy's Cafe with a menu including your classic breakfast standards - omelets, pancakes, biscuits and gravy. Prices are still very reasonable, perhaps of the lack of renovations and maybe they own the building? Regardless, this will be a new staple due it's proximity to home. Also the servers always stop by to fill up your coffee, that's all I usually ask for during breakfast. Keep my coffee warm! Eggs and omelette, bacon, hashbrowns, and pancakes have all been great. French toast was fine, but oddly smaller than what I expected for the price. I would probably skip and go with pancakes going forward. read more

a hop skip and a jump down feddy so we had to try. Especially when you're craving the classic diner feel (Which Denver is sadly stripping itself of year after year !!!). My lady and I walked in and were promptly escorted to a booth with a massive hole in the cushion. The ratchet look of the yellow foam escaping from its pleather covering was alarming at first, but with each refill of hot coffee the thought of our torn up booth slowly dissipated from my mind. Nancys could use an interior design spruce up but I hope they keep their elderly wait staff and delicious breakfast offerings. There's a safe bet we'll be back sometime eventually. read more

Nancy's Cafe - Ultimate Skillet - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Westminster, Colorado

Food was okay for a small diner. I had the traditional breakfast w pancakes and when she brought the pancakes they were cold! So I had to ask for fresh ones just to get fresh pancakes. The service was really good and the server was nice. The vibe was quiet and calm. read more

Definitely one of the better diners/cafés for breakfast/brunch around on the north side of town. Everything is fairly priced, the coffee is ok, the service is great, and everybody's extra friendly. What else could you ask for? Cons: The booths are uncomfortable, because they are old and broken down, although, that's part of what gives this place some of its mystique. The bathrooms are tiny, and could use a remodel. Pros: Exactly what you would expect, food-wise, and fairly priced. The service is always great. The same people have worked there forever. Giant parking lot was super easy parking. read more

I've lived in the area for a few years and have never noticed Nancy's. I had to get out of my house for about an hour this morning & searched close breakfast places & decided to check it out. Very standard diner feeling/aesthetic. Very friendly waitstaff. Went with the 3 egg omelet w/hashbrowns. Was exactly how I ordered it & tasted great. Prices seemed very reasonable. Definitely going to make a point to be back on a regular basis to help support local & try a few other things on the menu. read more

My family and I have been going here since my mom was pregnant with me and til this DAY the food is still so good and I love all the waitresses they are basically my family. read more

Clean, but could use a facelift Friendly staff Always had a full coffee cup Good portion sizes (not too big, just enough food) Acoustics are good What we ate: Chicken friend steak - gravy had good flavor, simple allowed flavor of steak to come through (a lot of the time chicken fried steak is over powered by the gravy) - Eggs cooked perfectly - Hash brown could have been cooked a little longer to crisp them up Huevos Garcia - green chili had good flavor, just the right amount of heat - Seasoned just right; not trying to be over the top Coffee could have been better. It tasted like it had been on the burner too long. read more

They do not make places like this anymore. First, the staff and ambiance is extremely warm and welcoming. It feels a little "old school" which brought me back to my childhood days in the best way. Everyone is happy and helpful. Second, the food - delicious. We got biscuits and gravy, French toast, country friend steak and a few sides. Everything tasted homemade and came out fresh and hot. The prices are great too - we spent around $38 and both left stuffed. Definitely give this cafe a try, you will be glad you did! Nancy herself served us and she is such a joy. As we were leaving we heard her tell a few people "see you back tomorrow." A place where locals flock to and such a hidden gem. read more

I couldn't find a current menu and the latest I got was 2-3 years old it seems. The prices have gone up over 50% versus the pics I saw online. Old-school place doesn't do online. That's fine. But I expected a better breakfast. Pancakes were not good. Everything else was fine, but just make it at home. read more

My sister chose this place because she knows how I like "dive" looking restaurants. It was certainly a diamond in a rough! The interior was was very old and rough looking but the breakfast, AMAZING! My daughter and I were visiting from Ohio. This was possibly the best meal we had all week. Sometimes when you are on vacation, you can't wait to get home to have a home cooked meal. This place was like being at home and have a large Sunday morning breakfast. We highly recommend it. read more

Nancy's Cafe - a plate of food on a table - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Westminster, Colorado

Very good breakfast but for two people eggs Benedict two entrees two coffees is 50 bucks bring your wallet

Cold food on dirty dishes. It definitely is a spot that mostly caters to regulars. The service was almost none existed, took our order, dropped off the food and the bill and that was about it. Then the tables had more ads on it then a time before pop up blockers were invented. read more

Amazing place. Great value. Love coming here multiple times a week. This is so amazing.

Nancy's is open 7 days a week 7am to 1:30 pm with exception for holiday. Excellent food and a fun crew. It's a morning moment for sure

Love Nancy's diner. The environment is so nostalgic as well. The service is super friendly and we got so lucky to have Nancy serve us. This is the diner food I expect, nothing bougie like Snooze. The food is great, food prices are amazing and love everything about it. We ordered a veggie omelette and biscuits and gravy, both meals were great. We'll definitely be back! read more

Great little breakfast spot with completely reasonable prices, great parking, and an in-depth menu filled with the classics including an awesome breakfast burrito. Inside is a little run down but you go for the food and service not fancy wall papering or upholstery :) Great value for the money, awesomely friendly and quick service, highly recommend! read more

I mean it when I say it . This is the best breakfast place I've been to. I got the Chile relleno with eggs and it also came with hash browns and flour tortillas allowing me to make little burritos from it. It was so good, and you can tell it has an authentic Mexican breakfast taste to it. The service is great, very consistent and kind yet not pushy or annoying.. they were genuinely nice people, not just being nice for the service but they make you feel welcome like it's your grandmas house. God bless everyone. Jesus is with you all read more

This is the type of breakfast/lunch cafe you can find in any town in the US. Pretty classic really. The outside has tattered ripped awnings, graffiti sprayed dumpsters, the building is weathered and parking lot is cracked and faded. The inside is the same. The booth seating is well worn in (aka ripped) and dated. It is quintessentially Federal. The service is pleasant and food is traditional cafe food. Bacon, sausage, eggs, pancakes, omelets, a handful of sandwiches and burgers. Nearly everyone there is a regular. The staff and customers are all on first name basis. There are no surprises here. The food will not blow you away, nor will you hate it. Sometimes simple decent food is all that's needed... and that's what you'll find. read more

First time here and live only minutes away. Not sure why waited so long to try. Got seated right away. Coffee refilled all the time. Food arrived fast and hot. Had eggs, hashbrowns and bacon. Husband had Meat Lovers Skillet with biscuits and gravy. Portions are really good size, had to get to go boxes. We will be back. read more

I can't get enough of This place. I've been a locate for years and yet this place still stands. Looks exactly the way it always has. All staff knows you by name! Locals have the routine days. Staff is very friendly and you won't go by one without being greeted. Super old school vibes, I love it. Food is great no matter what you or read more

Little hole in the wall, nothing cute to look at in-fact our booth was missing a whole section of padding. Food was good, prices super reasonable, service was fair but it was quite busy. Kept the coffee coming, not strong coffee but coffee nonetheless. I feel safe giving it a three. If you need breakfast for a reasonable price and don't need ambiance or strong coffee/ you'll like it here. read more

We stopped at Nancy's on our way out of town & had a great experience. Everyone was super friendly, service was great, the food was fast & delicious. The French toast was excellent & the cinnamon rolls were tasty. Definitely stop here if you get a chance! read more

Nancy's Cafe is such an amazing place. The food is always fast and fresh and tastes amazing. The staff is always so amazing as well, they actually care about you and make sure that you are happy. Today, I got a bacon breakfast burrito and I accidentally got a sausage one. I asked for bacon on the side so I don't waste the burrito but my server said she would box that sausage one up and bring out a fresh bacon one. Not a lot of places are willing to fix the whole situation anymore and I really appreciate Nancy's Cafe! read more
