    Brisket sandwich, baked beans, cole slaw, potato salad, and smack my ass good cucumber salad.
    Danielle S.

    Run, don't walk to try Scooters refreshing cucumber salad. Don't forget the potato salad too! Polished off a brisket Sammy and sides after an epic hike. Highly recommend making this stop as you pass through town or as a quick stop off 70. Creek side vibes were impeccable and service was great!

    My Coworker heard we were going to Georgetown for a train ride and raved about this little spot. Great BBQ, fair prices, and family owned warmth. It's a small place without a ton of seating inside, but quite a few tables & picnic tables outside. The portions were huge & I enjoyed the cucumber salad (which I didn't expect). Even better, the service was great. The internet had just gone out and although stressed they made sure to help us. Great spot off I-70!

    Loved this "special bathroom sign"

    What a special find! We took the special Georgetown scenic train (definitely do this!... the aspens are at their peak) and wanted somewhere yummy to eat afterwards. Thanks to Yelp we found this gem. Kathy and her 2 sons are from TX and know how to cook barbecue. We had pulled pork ( yummy sauces!), delicious homemade French fries, baked beans to die for, creamy Mac and cheese and the peach cobbler. It was drizzling, so luckily we were able to sit at the "bar" which seated 6-7. There also is one small table outside. I think a lot of locals come by here for take out (including the police!) so you know is a local favorite.

    Scooters!

    This place was great. Fast friendly service and a moist brisket sandwich! His sauces are great as well. What a nice stop on the way back from the mountains. Get a quick sandwich and back on the road. Will definitely return.

    I got the ribs plate and forgot to take a picture LOL! The food was delicious as were the sauces. I love the spicy mustard. There are only about 4 seats inside and a few picnic style tables outside. We took our food and ate it near the lake. I got the rib plate and it was good! I love their beans. They're open until they run out and they run out pretty quick due to high demand. I recommend getting there before 2pm because that's the latest I've been able to get them.

    AMAZING place! We were 5 people and tried almost everything on the menu and nothing disappointed! Brisket was our favorite, all the sides were great. The restaurant is very small, only 6 seats are available inside and 4-5 tables on the outside. Let's talk about sides: Mac and cheese- definitely a must if you like mac and cheese, super creamy and not a fake cheesy one. Cucumber salad- wow super fresh, it has onion and dill, delicious. Coleslaw- super citrusy and no mayo, very healthy Fries- amazing seems like hand cut Onion rings- best I have had! Made from real onions Sauces- all amazing, my fav was sweet spicy bbq sauce. Their bun was really tasty as well. We are visiting the town and thankfully we found this place!

    Pulled pork small size sandwich and the BEST crispy onion rings and okra.
    Cynthia M.

    Fantastic smoked pork and the onion rings are wonderful, crispy! The okra is also just right! Four different sauces to choose from. The plac is tiny and cozy with limited seating, but it's worth getting food and even eating in your car if you have to. Lovely smokey scent as you drive up.

    Pulled pork and baked beans

    Stopped by Scooters for a late lunch and weren't sure what to expect. We were in for a surprise. Our visit started with the nicest staff who were great to talk to. Then we get to the food. We ordered pulled pork sandwiches, Mac n cheese, and baked beans. Everything tasted amazing! The Mac n cheese and baked beans were some of the best we've had at a bbq place. Highly recommend stop here if you're going through Georgetown!

There are only a handful of businesses in Kittredge, a humble unincorporated town outside of Evergreen and Morrison (closer to the former). And shockingly, most of the businesses are great! This is another creekside restaurant and what's not to love about that? I've never actually dined in, only gotten takeout a few times. Doesn't change the fact that they are doing something right in the kitchen! At Switchback, they have the MEATS. As all good BBQ places should. My last meal consisted of their brisket, sausage, and mac and cheese. I really enjoyed everything I had. The sausage may have been my favorite, it was extremely juicy. Brisket is the best BBQ meat and theirs (even takeout) was tender and tasty. Like many BBQ places, the hours and quantities are limited. And for being in a remote unincorporated town you can't fault them for that. Take a scenic drive out this way and score some yummy 'que!!!

I can't recall their names but they were both very welcoming and friendly to the guests they attended. Our server was extremely helpful in helping us select our order as it was difficult to make a decision. She had a wonderful smile and funny banter and was genuinely happy to serve us. I thought she was the owner of the restaurant, but as we were remarking about the beauty and history of the building she remarked that she had only been working there for a few weeks! She was truly a breath of fresh air where customer service and friendliness is truly hit or miss. Some folks were very happy to see us, others could have preferred we stayed home. The BBQ was also amazing, we shared a platter with brisket and pulled pork, coleslaw and Mac and cheese. Everything was really delicious, the coleslaw wasn't overwhelmed by too much mayo. It was crisp and deliciously crunchy and the mac and cheese was homemade using mezze penne, gooey and flavorful. It was a delicious meal and a wonderful experience.

The employee taking orders was patient while I looked over the menu and gave a couple suggestions without overdoing it. The pulled pork was tender and had enough flavor on its own without needing extra sauce. I wasn't expecting much from the salad, but the chicken was fresh and the portion was bigger than I thought it would be. My order came out in a reasonable amount of time even though there were several people waiting ahead of me. Overall it felt like a dependable local BBQ spot that focuses more on solid food than hype.
