Disappointing. Had ok, possibly day-old cinnamon roll from Sedalia bakery with nuts (extra$), but served w/o the cream cheese frosting. Waitress forgot the cream cheese...annoying. Hubby's b'fast was just ok. Also frustrating that we had to wait very long time for coffee refill, waitress seemed to avoid us...hard to do in such a small room. She clearly was not inclined to serve us with the same friendly attitude provided to other patrons she probably knew. We really want to support local business, but we left frustrated and will likely not return. read more

I've been coming here for years and it's kind of like your typical diner breakfast spot it's pretty basic nothing fancy but I think they need to get new carpet and give the place a good scrub down. The food this time was mediocre. Poached eggs were not poached and hash browns were kind of dry. Will I go back ? Of course but I think they could do better and probably should do better. read more

I have nothing but praise for this restaurant. My buddies and I came in right after they closed and they still served us. (I don't recommend doing this) The waiters were extremely nice and patient. The Mexican omelet is amazing. Great spot. Will return read more

Unfortunately this place looked like it would be great but it was not - plus we peaked into the kitchen and saw them heating up so many things with the microwave that we won't go back just because of that - but we did not like the meat in the burgers nor did we enjoy the chicken fried steak - my eggs over easy with toast and hash browns were fine - but not for the price... it's too bad because there is nothing else going on in Sedalia. read more

O'Brien's is truly a diamond in the rough. The café is adjacent to a bizarrely-named pet grooming business--Bowser Bubbles--in a drab little building along Highway 85. Don't let the outside fool you--this place is amazing! After spending the morning hiking Devil's Head, we stopped here for lunch--and, oh boy, I'd rank this as one of my best Yelp finds ever. The interior is uniquely decorated with shelves full of random trinkets--think Cracker Barrel except way stranger (and thus awesome). Many of the decorations were related to princesses--hey, things don't have to make sense to be cool. One more thing that definitely didn't make sense--the old school indoor thermometer (circa 1990) strategically positioned between the two dining room areas. Props to O'Brien's for being the only restaurant I've ever seen with an indoor thermometer. In the corner of the restaurant near the restrooms, there is a shelf of books with a hand-written sign above it promoting the "BOOK EXCHANGE." Yes, you can borrow books to read while you're enjoying your brunch. Brilliant. Simply brilliant. The menu was awesome--tons of terrific breakfast/brunch options. Lots of the foods are topped with homemade green chili. O'Brien's also has a menu entitled the "MAN-U" in honor of its manliness. Yes, I ordered from the MAN-U. I ordered the #2--the Mighty Meat Skillet with sourdough toast. Our waitress assured me that this was one of O'Brien's most popular meals. The skillet was a perfect blend of meats, spices, potatoes, and eggs... smothered in green chili--ahh, my mouth was in heaven. O'Brien's has several excellent dessert options. Although I didn't order dessert (way too full from the skillet), I did try a friend's rhubarb pie--fresh and absolutely delish. Random place + princess decorations + book exchange + indoor thermometer + great menu + delicious green chili + friendly servers + homemade pies = one of the best little cafes I've ever experienced. read more

A quaint country roadside diner is right up my alley! And I've been wanting to stop here for a longtime. The woman I supposed was the own, party blond, was super friendly and quick with a joke. And the interior is a dyslexic version of a diner, a mix of 50's chairs and 70's eh. But the charm really stops there. A burger In a place like this should be great. Mine was a frozen preform with no flavor. I asked for no tomatoes, but got them anyway. And they didn't have onions. Come on! The fries were good, home made, but ovecooked so that some were Inedible. This place could be great, but the food is not worthy of the country legend this place could be. read more

It's food... Breakfast was a disappointment. Bad coffe, no flavor to the green chili or the gravy. Eggs were cooked as ordered but the breakfast burrito was missing the sausage but not the hair. Yelpers say to get the cinnamon roll, they were out. We figured the pie would make up for it, Sarah Lee would have been better. Our waitress with the booger hanging out of her nose disappeared and the replacement was too busy to greet a customer who just decided to leave. He was the smart one. read more

Great breakfast, and lunch! Always been a regular. My favorites are the cinnamon buns, biscuits and gravy, or really any of the pies. They have a white board for the daily specisls, and one for pies (both good things to check out upon arrival). A friend of mine swears by their breakfast burritos. Wonderful family buisness! They always have something going for the holidays. Will be back time, and time again. read more

Husband had the special. English Breakfast which was beans, sausages, home style potatoes, grilled tomatoes and mushrooms, 2 eggs, and toast. He ate evert hing and also added a little of their homemade ghost Chile hot sauce. He said it was hot. I had the Texas omelet with a jalapeno cream cheese inside plus bacon and onions. Amazing. I tried the homemade garlic Serrano hot sauce which was mild and added a nice kick to the flavor. read more

A little disappointing... slow service, green chili was bland. Needed flavor. My rye toast was good, as were the hash browns, but that is where it ended. Pies looked good, but didn't have a chance to try them. Not sure I ever will... read more

I think this place has high ratings because it's the only breakfast place for miles around. Standard American Diet (SAD) served here. If you are looking for fresh farm to table, organic, non GMO, keep driving. read more

A little out of the way restaurant. That was really good. The food was great and the atmosphere was cozy.

Cute home style cafe. Everything here is made fresh and served hot. Our only issue was the portions were a bit small for the price for breakfast. They have all home made pies and pastry. It's right on the way to castle rock from Sedalia. read more

This is my favorite spot for breakfast. Wonderful staff and atmosphere. The food definately great, tastes home made. The staff makes you feel like old friends, everytime you come in. This is not somewhere to go, if you want fancy. This is a diner, where you go to get a great hot meal, some homemade pie, catch up on the community news, and relax. read more

Not a terrible place and it is local but the coffee was weak and the foot while not terrible was not spectacular. Good, attentive service but only so-so food. read more

Awesome homemade mom and pops feeling food! Chicken fried steak was the best. My picky eater husband said it was the best he ever had! Defiantly will be back! read more

I met a buddy of mine for a motorcycle ride and we decided to give it a shot. It was like stepping into a time machine to back when our country was great. The service was excellent, the food was excellent and the ambiance was excellent. Everyone was friendly. I saw customers visiting with each other and it was apparent that they had never met before. The owner was gracious and visited with all the customers. We will definitely be back! To the person that was offended by the Trump cap, please don't come back!!!!! They don't need your business, believe me, they are doing just fine. You might look for a snowflake restaurant in Boulder that might meet your tastes. read more

Great place for a down home cooked meal with great folks. We will be back with our MAGA gear on as well. Glad to see folks standing up for what they believe in! read more

Have passed by many times and been wanting to try. Finally, today, we had the chance. Walked in and saw four empty tables -- all with dirty dishes on them. Stood by the door for 5 minutes and neither of the two people working there ever acknowledged us. I went to the bar and stood in front of both employees and, again, neither acknowledged me. Finally, after both of the staff walked past us for the third time without acknowledging us, we gave up and left. Not sure if they're always understaffed and always this rude, but it was very frustrating. Won't be back. read more

Very disappointing. We love little diners. The place was packed which is a good sign. My food was luke warm. My veggie omelette just had veggies thrown on top. The hash browns came from a bag of frozen I'm sure because they were flavorless and dry. Boyfriend had juevos rancheros. Very bland and dry. We won't be back. Waitress was very polite. My English muffin was very yummy. Honey is on the the table for muffins or tea which is always nice. Clean and friendly read more

We stopped here after hiking the Devils head. We were hoping to find a quaint small town diner and we were not disappointed! We were very cold from the rain and the coffee an loaded potato soup were perfect for warming me up. My kiddos and husband enjoyed their food as well and we were very happy with the friendly staff. Not to mention the strawberry rhubarb pie was AMAZING. I mean yum, my mouth is watering just thinking about it. Anyway, I would definitely recommend this place and if you go, be sure to save room for pie! read more

Loved it! Great food. Fast service. And they know how to cook hash browns most excellent!

Pretty remote, pretty fantastic. It's an hour away from my parents' house and it's worth it. Nice people, astonishing green chili. I scarfed down a Mexican Omelet last time, then started eating leavings off others' plates, then considered ordering another dish. read more

We always enjoy our time here. The food is good hearty country style breakfasts and lunch. The plates don't match each other and the coffee cups are all different. It's exactly what you would expect in a country cafe. The prices are good too read more

I can't believe I never knew about this hidden gem! Great breakfast spot, they have traditional breakfast fare along with skillets and some mexican specialties. We were happy to see they had grits, creamy and delish. Very friendly service too. Haven't tried their lunch fare yet, but it all looked great at the neighboring tables. I would have given them a "5" but they dropped the ball on their homemade pie. We had two pieces - apple and custard. The apple did have homemade crust but used canned apples (a deal-breaker for me) The custard pie, although a homemade filling, was a little bland and used a premade crust. So we were disappointed with the promise of homemade pie when it really wasn't. Another nice touch would be to not use pre-packaged jelly - would have loved a little jar on the table instead. Aside from this, we will definitely come back - great casual spot. read more

I pass this place every morning on my way to work and it never fails, there are at least 8 trucks parked outside. I keep telling myself to get up early enough to stop by some morning and today I did. While I would give the food 3 stars, the hospitality is 5. I had the breakfast burrito which was good but the chili is a little bland for my taste. My brother had the biscuts & gravey which were very good. What makes the place so special is Christy and Donna who are both amazing in the way they make you feel at home for a good morning breakfast. I know I'll be getting up early more often so I can stop and visit the Princess. read more

O'Brien's is one of the best-kept secrets for those looking for a great home-cooked breakfast or lunch at very reasonable prices. It's not often I write about a restaurant, but this one well deserves it. Their generous breakfasts are outstanding, offering standard-fare items like eggs, bacon, and sausage to combos of chicken-fried steak, biscuits and gravy, breakfast burritos, corned beef hash, and even meatloaf. "Home cooking" is exactly what you get with a staff that is super-friendly and makes everyone feel like part of the family. Soups from scratch are available daily along with other items based on their family recipes. In addition to menu items, they have home-made pies available. O'Briens is a true "local diner". On any day of the week, you can expect to dine with locals and ranchers from the surrounding communities. Blue jeans is the attire. We started eating here last fall and now go there several times a month as part of our family's regular schedule. Their portions are generous and we've never had a bad meal there yet. While it is a bit of a drive from the metro (we usually drive south on I-25 to the Happy Canyon exit, go west to Santa Fe, and then north to Sedalia), it is worth the drive to have a real old-fashioned breakfast with some of the nicest people you'll ever meet - anywhere. read more

We just recently moved to Sedalia, and with their only being four restaurants to choose from in town, O'Briens being the only real breakfast place, we had high hopes that it would be good, so we can eat here quite often. Unfortunately, we won't be back. I don't mind little 'hole in the wall places', as sometimes that's where you can find the best food. But this place was very dirty. Only one host seating people and busing tables, and only one waitress in the whole place. Unfortunately she had zero personality and kindness skills. But she seemed like she was so young, probably even in high school. The fly tape in the kitchen filled with dead flies really topped it off for me. The bacon was as thin as tissue paper and there was nothing special about the rest of the food. I really like to keep business local with where I live, but unfortunately I cannot subject myself to this breakfast eatery again. :( read more

O'Brien's Cafe - Fly tape filled with flies?!?! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Sedalia, Colorado

This is a great place to meet for breakfast. It doesn't seem to get too crowded, has a great variety of food and a very helpful waitstaff. Plus, they have silly signs on the wall and decent coffee. Loved the Greek salad once I asked for spinach instead of iceberg lettuce and the pies are really, really delish. read more

After reading reviews we stopped for lunch. My seat and table were wet from cleaning. That icky dirty towel smell. It's a nice family atmosphere and the staff were friendly. I wasn't impressed with the burger I ordered. The fries were soggy but were at least fresh. My daughter got breakfast and I think that's where this place shines. I will try again for breakfast with green chili but will not go back for lunch. read more

My hubby and I love a good highway diner, and this place fits the bill! Try their min-sized bread sliced and grilled, you can take the rest home. Their peach bread was so yummy! Friendly service, good-sized portions, good prices! read more

Excellent place to get great food and great Service. You be full after eating here and it won't break your wallet. The staff is helpful and very nice. read more

Below average breakfast. My eggs were over cooked (scrambled) and the biscuits and gravy were just average. The service was okay, but not great. I wouldn't return. read more

Zero stars sat for 15 minutes and ignored by staff in a small place will not return could mot rate the food cuz we walked out. How is it possible to be ignored in such a small place? Worst customer service I have ever seen. Don't waste your time here. read more

We had eggs, bacon, hashbriwns and pancakes all of which were very quite tasty. Brittany was pleasant and took care of everything we needed quickly. read more

Great breakfast with homemade bakery items; the eggs and hash browns are great, as are the cinnamon rolls and biscuits! Not fancy, but super yummy! read more

Good food, friendly staff. O'Brien's offers a good, basic breakfast and hearty lunch and dinner items. Their baked goods are very tasty too. This is the kind of place where you enjoy your meal and the experience. For me, this is a good substitute for the remodeled, not-the-same, B&B Cafe in downtown Castle Rock. Lots of locals eat here but you'll still feel welcome. read more

I liked this place, it was small and cosy. It had an interesting atmosphere to it. I really had fun. It wasn't formal at all. It really is a great place to hang out at as well. Food was yummy and the service was good. One person helped the waitress and then everything got confused with the bill, but that was the only hiccup. I would go back. read more
