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!

My friend and I were heading towards the mountains and we were hungry. The first…read moreinteresting-looking place we stopped at had closed (it was an odd time on a Sunday afternoon), so we decided to stop at the next interesting place. Otto's was it! The place is small and seemed perpetually busy, so it took a while to get our food. But, there are also lots of interesting things to look at, so it wasn't bad. And the staff was very friendly I ordered the South Carolina BBQ sandwich, and we split an enormous basket of sweet potato fries. We liked that there was frosting to dip them in. My sandwich was good and generous; I only ate half, which meant that I got to enjoy the other half at another time. At first, we were not very impressed with the fries, but we managed to eat them all, so I guess they actually were good!

I ordered the Italian sub along with chicken tenders, fried mushrooms, and sweet potato tots. Everything was excellent, and the food was so good that I ended up going back for seconds. The sweet potato tots and fried mushrooms were especially phenomenal. My girlfriend ordered the turkey bacon ranch pita and couldn't stop talking about how much she enjoyed it. The service was as impressive as the food. Every staff member we interacted with was friendly, welcoming, and genuinely kind. Even with the morning rush, they kept things moving smoothly and made us feel appreciated as customers. It's easy to see why people were lined up before they opened. Great food, great service, and a great atmosphere. I highly recommend Biggie's to anyone looking for a fantastic sandwich shop. We'll definitely be back.

And, bonus you do too. First, The Vintage Moose makes the most of their small space - they even have a back room with a few games, open windows and beyond that, a small patio. Super chill. We laughed reading all the cool signs and stickers from all around. Lots to enjoy as you partake in an adult bevvie. Just one guy running the bar and he was amazing. If you're looking for a place where the locals hang out and everyone knows everyone, this is it. We had a great time, even though we were new. We def will be back. And, if it's summer time when you go, ask for their watermelon sangria. So good.

It has that classic local bar feel - relaxed, welcoming, and full of personality. Most of the crowd seemed to be locals, aside from us and a couple of other tables grabbing a later dinner. That's usually a good sign. The drink selection had plenty of options, and the atmosphere made it easy to settle in and stay awhile. We kept it simple with a few neat pours of whiskey and enjoyed soaking in the vibe. We didn't try the food this visit, but after seeing what was coming out of the kitchen, we'll definitely be back to do that next time. If you're looking for a laid-back local spot in Idaho Springs, The Vintage Moose is worth a stop.

Fattened up after your hotel breakfast buffet of waffles and freeze-dried eggs? Oh No. Split "The Cheesus," the Signature Sandwich, with a friend. Three (3) slices of freshly baked sourdough bread. Top and bottom slices have melted white and yellow American cheese melted into them. Middle slice has been soaked in tomato soup. Counter service is very friendly and will bring your order to the table. Consider it a Cultural Experience. It's like eating Alligator or Mud Bugs in Louisiana.
