We are the opportunity to go here a few weeks back during the day. Pretty much everything you're gonna read about this place is true. Everyone in there does seem to know each other and everyone in there is friendly, including the staff. We were able to get seated right away, but again, it was during the week. The staff and the patrons definitely have a small town feel despite being just minutes from both Highlands Ranch and Castle rock. The value was good and that is likely what will bring us back. Also keep in mind that they do have a bakery with some good stuff to take home so make sure you save room! read more

What a fabulous little place just off 85 in Sedalia. It's pretty much in the middle of nowhere and an island oasis outside the sprawling metropolis. We were greeted and served by a wonderfully friendly and outgoing woman named McKenzie. She has a small town charm you rarely see in the city. She brought us drinks, took our orders, chatted us up kept us informed on the timeline of our orders. When the food came out, it was wonderfully prepared, hot, fresh and it was delicious. All the while McKenzie kept our drinks full and put smiles on our faces. The wings and garlic knots were first rate. My veggie calzone was perfect. We even took a jalapeño pizza for later. We ordered a few desserts for the road and tasted them when we got home. All were fantastic. Small town, homemade taste. I really wish this place was closer. It's a true gem and I'd eat there weekly if it was down the street from me. Donna, the owner, is a real class act and clearly cares about her customers and the products she puts forward. A plus plus plus for this little diner. read more

We had country burrito, biscuit and gravy, quesadilla, and I had the All meat which all was very good. The waitress was very good which I forgot her name but it would not be fair because they was all good. The whole restaurant was very clean and fun to be at. read more

O'Brien's Cafe - All Meat - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Sedalia, Colorado

Came here with my family following a hike in the area. Very unassuming exterior, with a small town feel interior. We were promptly seated and waiting upon. Staff were friendly and helpful. Prices very reasonable and portions large. We tired biscuits & gravy, chicken fried chicken, French toast, Sedalia omelet, and kid's pancakes. Classic comfort food. Delicious and satisfying. read more

Stopped in for breakfast this morning and sat at the counter. tried to make small talk and joke around with one of the waitresses standing right in front of me filling water glasses. No smile or responce from her just standing in front of me. Asked if everything was okay and she just rudely said im just trying to do my job. Very rude and uncomfortable to say the least. Didn't mind so much paying $20 for bacon eggs and coffee but I will NEVER go back there. Save yourself $15 and get a Santiago's buirrito at the gas station read more

This is my favorite breakfast spot in the entirety of Denver, a tiny little town called Sedalia just south of Denver. The food is excellent. The vibe is very cozy. The service is always fantastic and the food is priced very well. The portions are also pretty big. Highly recommend stopping by the spot and giving them a try read more

O'Brien's Cafe - Veggie omelette plate with hashbrowns and egg whites - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Sedalia, Colorado

The breakfast was tasty and a generous serving. Especially liked the patty pork sausage. Most places lately only have link which I don't care for. We will continue to frequent this place for breakfast read more

Stopped in at O'Brien's Cafe and had an incredible experience. The host/server was absolutely awesome -- friendly, attentive, and made me feel right at home. I ordered the meat skillet and it was spectacular -- perfectly cooked, hearty, and full of flavor. If you ever find yourself passing through or heading out on an adventure nearby, do yourself a favor and stop at this gem of a place. You won't regret it! Old school cafe vibes, the type that has a table of old timers drinking coffee and talking about news. They don't make them like this anymore, and thats a shame. read more

Food was amazing and the vibe was awesome I totally recommend and think the prices aren't bad for a cute quaint place. The owner Donna runs the place with love and you can tell. Very homey and friendly to law enforcement as well. Had bfast with my LE friends and everyone was smiling and having a good time. read more

Great home made breakfast. The baked goods from the bakery around the corner were superb . Staff was extremely friendly and attentive . We have driven by so many times and finally stopped in. No disappointment here . We even went to the bakery around the corner to satisfy my husband's sweet tooth . The apple strudel stick was outstanding. Fresh apples and not too sweet . read more

The coconut cake is to die for. But you won't. It's moist and delicious. The only problem there is you order something off of the menu and it's great. Then you're full when another item is simply amazing. It's a great place to go. Your tastebuds won't be disappointed. Besides the great food, there is always a fun saying on the wall or in a nook or cranny. I live quite a distance from this cafe, but the trip is always worthwhile and scenic along the way. I always look forward to coming back. The staff are always welcoming. read more

Our new favorite breakfast place. I love the atmosphere of this cozy diner with the locals in there all sitting around talking to each other. The owners are so friendly and omg the food!!! Chicken fried steak, corned beef hash and the green chili burrito. Can't forget the homemade cinnamon rolls. Yummmm!! read more

Classic American cafe with amazing food and an even better staff. O'Brien's club was piled high with fresh ingredients and the pancakes were up there with the best of them. If you're seeking out a spot for some great breakfast/lunch with a hometown atmosphere this is it. Huge miss on our part not trying the pies. Looked amazing. Will be back. read more

Food is pretty good. Had the green chili burger. Fries are average. Deserts on the other hand are amazing. Everything is baked at the Sedalia bakery. Service is very good. Ambiance is great. Perfect diner. read more

We always choose O'Brien's as a midway meeting place for my family between Littleton and Castle Rock. I met my two grandchildren there today and I've got to say, we were served the worst pancakes I've ever eaten. They were so heavy and tough to even get a bite off them. My 17 yr old grandson didn't eat his pancakes and he'll usually eat his and half of mine. As usual the service was so friendly and coffee kept coming but am so sad to pay $15.95 for a plate of uneatable pancakes. read more

Came here for weekend brunch on a Sunday. The place is very small and certainly has kept its old town feel with the interior decor. It was busy and we just sat down at an open table that was kind of tucked away on the back right side of the cafe and were greeted by a waitress with menus pretty quickly. The menu has both breakfast or lunch options with very traditional cafe/diner food items. I went with the Spinach Roadkill with a side of hash browns-- sandwich was tasty, hash browns were a little bland (the house hot sauces that were in the table was a nice way to add flavor) . Atmosphere was a little congested but, many of the guests seemed to be regulars to the area and welcoming/talkative. read more

It's a great "hometown" conservative place. Great food and friendly staff. Well done y'all! I'll definitely be returning. Not far from the big town hustle. I'm not from this area either so we were pleased to find it. read more

This picture says it all! Fabulous corned beef hash, eggs over easy, and hash browns. This cool old diner in Sedalia will be getting more of our business. Perfect Sunday morning breakfast. He had the pancakes with a ham steak and agrees, when you are looking for that filling, delicious, hit the spot, breakfast, this is the place. The wait staff is friendly and anybody passing by checks to see if you need a beverage, or anything else. First place in a while where nobody avoided eye contact. Thanks Dani and friends!! read more

O'Brien's Cafe - It did have corned beef hash, eggs over easy, and hash browns. Would have licked the plate, but... - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Sedalia, Colorado

A table of six on a Monday morning with separate checks - no problem. Service was quick with regular follow up and checks were accurate. The breakfast burritos, both large and small were a big success. Smothered in a very likable green chili, a little hot but not debilitating.... Biscuits and gravy were also very good. Included a couple of eggs over medium and crispy bacon. The biscuits were homemade and were very light. Corned beef hash and eggs were very well received. We all cleaned our plates and vowed to make a return trip. read more

We were looking forward to having breakfast and trying this place based on their reviews but when we arrived, they had a cardboard sign on their door that they were closed on Tuesdays. It was disappointing to have driven out to Sedalia after seeing their hours on Yelp as open on Tuesdays. I hope this saves others from trying them on a Tuesday. Hopefully we will try again! Maybe we will try again sometime. read more

Our first time here and the Burgers and fresh cut fires were phenomenal! We got in just before they closed and were still served like family! We are taking a cinnamon roll to go and will be back for certain. read more

Their shirts don't lie!!! Best BUNS in town! Delicious food, great service, and Donna is as genuine as they come! Highly recommend

Went for breakfast. I had the full stack pancakes and they were really fluffy and good. My husband had the full stack French toast and he said they were just okay. The menu said they were Texas toast but looked like regular toast. The warm syrup made up for it though. $5.98 for two really watered down coffees is the reason I didn't give them 5 stars. The cafe has a great vibe and would go back. read more

Fantastic local homemade meals! Reminds me of the classic diner back East inclusive of the charming personalities of the waitstaff!

A great little hometown gem. The best cinnamon rolls! Great breakfast. Definitely a local place that the locals love

Wonderful customer service the waitresses were very attentive. The food was amazing very well cooked right to order no mistakes. Portion sizes were very big and the bill was very small. In comparison. This is a nice little out-of-the-way place that I would recommend. read more

You know when you go to a small business and the food and vibe are just amazing? Well this is not it. The food was not flavorful, stinky, and quite frankly not appealing looking at all. They just slapped some things together and called it a meal. Further, it's really dirty in there. It looks like it hasn't been cleaned in years. Very dusty and dingy. The service was fine. I believe that the 5 star reviews are from those who live in Sedalia and probably know the owner and workers. read more

O'Briens is a local eatery at its finest. It's a great diner breakfast that's delicious and reliably just simple. No fuss here and that's the charm. Servers are friendly and fast. We return often when a Saturday morning breakfast craving hits. read more

My daughter and I had breakfast at O'Brien's Cafe. Her pancakes were yummy, and my biscuits and gravy were ok. (I'm admittedly a biscuits and gravy snob, and mine are better) The coffee was only average, but my daughter LOVED her hot chocolate, complete with sprinkles. :) We both, however, noticed the prominently displayed Trump photo and Trump 2020 paraphernalia when we walked in, which put a damper on our enthusiasm. I'm not against an establishment having a photo of the President on the wall, but the stickers and hat on the counter were too much. It made me feel unwelcome, and we won't be back. read more

The food was great and the staff worked hard to keep you happy. This was our 1st visit here, we had passed this fine establishment for years and decided to stop in. We were glad we did. read more

Found this place by accident, and we are grateful! Food was amazing, the drinks were great and huge & the service was amazing!!! I had a Denver omelet, and it was perfect, I ordered a side of salsa and was surprised how amazing it was, our kiddo ordered a Pancake with eggs and bacon- and the Hubs ordered a Mexican omelet. We rarely finish our meals and no one left much food.... Take note, when we walked in, we asked for the banana choc chip bread to start, and they gave us an entire loaf grilled. We rushed to get a 100 piece puzzle done before our food came, and the food won the race! This place has an Old Town feel with updated foods! ! read more

You would think if this place is understaffed and they're busy they would at least give there customers a menu and maybe a water while they wait for 20mins.. I walked out. read more

Great food, coffee and service. Would definitely recommend a stop in for breakfast or lunch!

Down home cooking, love this place. If there are 28 work trucks in the parking lot in the morning, it has to be awesome. And it is!

If you want to breakfast with the locals O'Briens is your place. It looks like O'Briens hasn't ploughed their profits back into spiffing up for a while. O'Briens is homey. Not a place to impress, but to socialize and eat plainly presented good American food. Want your hash browns extra crispy? They'll be that and the omelette will be tasty. No sprig of parsley, cantaloupe curl or orange wedge will brighten your plate. But they had gluten free bread. If I only judged on service and the nicest waitress met in years this place is 5 star. No wonder it's a local hangout. Good luck finding it for the first time if you're from out of town. I overshot the place completely three times. Take an immediate left before you hit the railroad tracks turning into town off the highway. Both Google maps and Tomtom were of limited usefulness: you'll keep looking for a place off the highway. O'Briens is off a frontage road. Short hours on a Saturday. The parking lot is uneven and unmarked so if you sport a walker or cane be careful. read more

I lived in Sedalia for many years and used to meet friends at O'Briens. It really is where locals go, and the nice thing is that every customer is treated with the same kindness and attention. I recently met dear friends for lunch while I was in town, and stepping through the door was like stepping into a time when life is a little less harried. Seven friends gathered around a table, and we ordered everything from omelets to burgers. If you like green chili, ask for it on your eggs. And ask for French fries instead of hash browns. They're awesome. While the food doesn't pretend to be farm-to-table, organic, free range, or any other such thing, it's good. But it's the company around the table and the atmosphere of having a meal in a friend's dining room is what makes O'Briens special. Try it out and you, too, will be transported to a simpler time. Relax and enjoy :). read more
