Whenever we pass through BV, we find ourselves dropping into Cool River. The place is always…read morehopping, and this recent stop was no exception. There is almost always a line snaking through the shop to place your order, but the staff is genuinely hustling hard to move people along. Once you get through the queue, you grab your drink and wait for them to call your name from the kitchen. It is a familiar routine for a reliable morning fuel up. Truth be told, this particular visit turned into a bit of a comedy of errors. I ordered a Cool River Burrito with chorizo, but the kitchen lost the ticket entirely. When they finally sorted that out, they failed to pack it to go as requested, so it ended up being a bit of a messy situation overall. To add to the frustration, the outdoor tables were pretty neglected. None of them had been wiped down or cleared, and unfortunately they were the only spots available to sit. Honestly, the food itself usually redeems the bumps in the road. When the burrito did show up, it was tasty and plenty big enough to satisfy a massive appetite, packed full of hearty ingredients and that chorizo punch. The interior space is definitely on the cramped side, but it manages to feel cute and features a nice modern vibe. Despite the logistical hiccups, the crew working the counter is incredibly kind and busting their humps to keep up with the rush. It remains a great, dependable spot to grab breakfast and a solid coffee drink when you are in town.

I did not realize the two Eddyline locations have different menus, so it was a fun surprise to see calzones here--my husband and I are big D.P. Dough fans from Fort Collins, so that was right up our alley. They also have a great kids' menu, which seems to have expanded since our last visit. Between the relaxed patio atmosphere, friendly service, great beer, and family-friendly food options, it was just an all-around wonderful experience.

He had the Jerk chicken sub with coleslaw, all he said was this is explicative great. I had the pizza which was also good, peppers were undercooked though. Great atmosphere from an outside sitting perspective. Service was good once we were told that when you are ready to order to put up your table flag. Wings are worth coming back for and if the smoked meats are close to the wings flavor you can't go wrong.

I ordered the Royale with Cheese (7 oz beef burger, cheese, white onions, pickles and special sauce - that seemed to just be mayo) and fried okra as a side. The hubby ordered the Boone (7 oz beef burger with slab of cream cheese and a pile of jalapeños) plus a side of their tater tots. Everything was wonderful! While I was eating my burger I kept like looking at it and enjoying it and I could not put my finger on what made it special, it just worked and worked very well. Same with the other burger. Sides were plentiful and nice and crispy. We also ordered a couple draft beers (they had a pretty extensive cocktail menu too). Really loved it. Will definitely come here again when in Buena Vista. Great experience.

Looking for a place 1/2 way to Denver to deliver grandkids. Found this place on Yelp and thought it…read morelooked far more interesting than the diner a neighbor in Pagosa Springs recommended. Atmosphere was great. They were packed. The bar area was noisy but they had rooftop seating that was very comfortable and we could keep an eye on the World Cup final. Ordered 3 burgers, a chicken sandwich and a Shifrin Salad. Teenagers thought the burgers were good. Sweet potato fries and side salad looked good. Daughter in law wouldn't get the cornmeal breading on her chicken sandwich again but thought the quality was good. Hubs got the burger w cream cheese and jalapeño -- super generous with the cream cheese, too much so. Tator tot starters were decent but we wanted them as an app and they came out with our main order. In fairness they were slammed on a pretty summer Sunday. Server was attentive and personable. First time we've eaten in Buena Vista so we'd probably check out others next time, but it's a perfect Colorado vibe kind of place. If the grandkids wanted to go back, we certainly would.

The Chile rellenos were like some terrible version you find in terrible food places like eastern Oklahoma. The star of the relleno should be the chile, not the breading. It was almost all this way overdone breading. Not good at all. The "green chili" was as spicy as milk and equally as flavorful. My brother said the breakfast burrito was terrible. I saw it, and it did not look appetizing. Some of the "green chili" drizzled on top like an afterthought. Dry and uninspired. My son enjoyed his simple plate of bacon, eggs, hash browns, and toast, but those who ordered the Mexican food inspired dishes were majorly disappointed. As far as service, we waited forever to order. Our drinks were constantly empty. The server was very polite but things like missing items, missing silverware, empty coffees and waters starts to add up to a negative experience. Nice views outside and the place is clean so atmosphere is fine, but the rest was severely lacking.
