    Lovely patio view

    After the previous day's disaster breakfast in Vail Village, we were looking for an upgrade. Score! The only problem was too many options to choose from. Really good biscuits and gravy, hash browns cooked nice and crispy, perfect bacon...should I go on? Would definitely repeat when in Vail.

    Great food!! Not the blow-my-mind out of the world great, but delicious, filling and lives-up-to-its expectations kind of food. I was looking for a restaurant where we could walk in and get seated. Westside cafe uses Yelp for their wait-list and I think we got lucky showing up when we did (8:40 am on a Sat), as there was no wait. Within about 20 mins though, there was a wait-list. The cafe has a cafe in the mountains feel - wooden architecture with pictures of mountains and skiers. They have the same metal mountain cut outs that I have at home! The servers are nice and there is decent parking right outside the cafe. For the cold loving people, you have seating outside too. We ordered the Chilaquiles, dirty Biscuits and gravy, and avocado toast, with a couple of cups of Hot Chocolate and Freshly squeezed orange juice. Of the three, the Chilaquiles were the best - spicy, crunchy, great balance of eggs and cream with the spicy sauce, and avocado slices to top the whole thing off. The biscuits and gravy, and the avocado toast were also very good, but not as good as the Chilaquiles. The hot chocolate was excellent as was the orange juice (very fresh, you could taste the pulp). Pricing wise, reasonable for Vail. Gorgeous views outside! Highly recommend!

    Our first morning in Vail, we walked over to the Westside Cafe and were pleasantly surprised at how great this place was. First thing, hot coffee, refilled several times - not many places get that right, just sayin'. From the everything bagel & lox to the eggs benedict, avocado toast and chicken and waffles, each dish was filling with great flavor. These guys know how to make breakfast. We wound up visiting a few times during the trip, that's how good it was. If you're in Vail and looking for a good breakfast, this is definitely the place to go.

    Super fast service! Very kind staff. One item came out not quite right and the staff fixed it immediately! Very large portions and delicious food. Our only problems was that we had too much food! Very nice patio with soft music and great views of the mountains. Overall amazing experience.

    Basic ham and eggs. Mostly hash browns.

    The food was good and cooked to order but smaller portions and Vail high prices. Ambiance was nice and summer quiet.

    Chicken Fried Steak.

    It's a nice traditional breakfast joint compared to all the boujee crap in Vail. The prices are a bit high for the serving size, but it's Vail. The B&G and CFS were $20 each and glass of OJ was $8! You can't really mess up breakfast but the CFS is not homemade and was small. Probably the size of a pop tart. Overall it was better than any place in Vail.

    Our server, Matej, started us off on the right foot with his enthusiasm and charm! We loved the orange juice, so delicious. Our food was fantastic as well. We had an order of the Hangover Skillet - three eggs!, chicken fried steak that was cooked perfectly and lean, and the split Benny with bison and chicken &waffle. The menu says it's all fresh and handmade and we could tell! Please try this gem when in the area.

    Chilling in the same seat I sat in when I lived here for 26 years. The memories are priceless.:)

    I've been coming to this establishment since it's opened. I was a regular, seven day a week customer. They have the most consistent tasty menu in the valley. The service is impeccable, and the recipes are spot on. Thank you, Brad, for welcoming me back, Mike, Steve and Ryan. Sorry I missed you, but I'll be back at lunch with my renters to dine again today..... This, place is beautiful!

    Over priced bagel sandwich. Sausage was gritty with no flavor. Cool was playing on her phone while also touching food. Won't go back.

    While staying in Vail, my wife and I were looking for a good breakfast spot, so we stopped by the…read morefront desk and asked about a couple places we had found on Yelp to see if they had any recommendations. They weren't too familiar with the breakfast at the places we mentioned, but one person immediately said, "There's The Little Diner right down the street. It's very good and has even been featured on the Food Network." We decided to give it a try, and we are very glad we did. We arrived around 8:30 in the morning and sat at the counter. At the time we were the only customers there. A very nice lady brought us water and got me a coffee while we looked over the menu. It actually took us a while to decide because there were so many great sounding options. As we sat there deciding, more and more people started coming in. My wife ordered the sausage gravy over a biscuit with eggs and cheese grits, and I ordered the Eggs Benedict with potatoes. When the food arrived, everything looked excellent. The flavors matched the presentation too. My wife said the sausage gravy was outstanding, and my Eggs Benedict was excellent as well. The eggs were cooked perfectly, the potatoes were very good, and the hollandaise sauce had great flavor. While sitting at the counter, we spent some time talking with our server. She told us she had been there since shortly after the diner first opened. Unfortunately, she also explained that the building is scheduled to be demolished so condos can be built above the property, and they are unsure whether the diner will be able to return afterward. It's honestly sad to hear about a place this good possibly being pushed out because of rising development and rental costs. I understand building owners want to maximize profits, but it's disappointing when small local businesses that people truly enjoy are forced out by higher rents and redevelopment. Places like this are what give towns character. Overall, this place was excellent. Great food, friendly people, and exactly the kind of local spot you hope to find while traveling.
