    The pie!! Stop and get a slice or buy a whole pie. We had the cookies and cream and the apple/blackberry. Both were delicious!

    Great place and great people! The cherry pie was delicious, and I also tried the blueberry and chocolate peanut butter--both were amazing. Everything tasted fresh and homemade. Friendly service and cozy vibe make it a spot worth coming back to! The chocolate peanut butter pie was to die for. Blueberry pie was awesome. You need this pie!

    Chocolate silk pie

    This is a charming little spot in the heart of Estes. I love the decor and the staff is always so nice. Food has always been decent to good when we've been in, but the pie is where it's at. So many flavors to choose from and always delicious!

    Samoa and peanut butter

    This is a small, local run place and the food was amazing! It was a bustling little place with only a handful of tables but the prices were super reasonable, biscuits and gravy were so good and my husband loved the pot pie. We tried the samoa and peanut butter pies.

    4/26/25-Went to grab lunch here, but as we were waiting to order we saw other people's food coming out and were disappointed. They were serving small portions for high prices. Instead we decided to just try their pies. The pies were about average in quality with neither one really standing out in any way. I would say go here just to try the pie, but skip their other food due to small size for high price.

    Such a cute little coffee and pie shop in the heart of Estes Park. We tried a few different pies and they were all delicious!

    My daughter and I grabbed some take-out from here for dinner early last month and it was a decent experience. We ordered our food and waited about 10-15 minutes, which was good considering how busy they were. I ordered the chicken fried steak with scrambled eggs and my daughter ordered a veggie burrito with a side of fruit. The chicken fried steak was good but was thin and not a big portion that you expect when ordering a chicken fried steak, and the amount of scrambled eggs was kind of a joke, (see my pics). My daughter liked her burrito but again, it was small. It looks like they cut it in half and we got one half. For the prices they charge, I expected to get a bit more food than what we got. I was looking at the pie's and one slice was almost $7. I absolutely love pie but I couldn't bring myself to paying that much for one slice. If/when we venture out to EP again, I'm not sure if I would go back.

    Moldy caramel apple pie that we got to go. When we called they offered to exchange it. Wasn't worth the hour+ drive.

    Lunch food was ok. We ordered 3 pieces of pie to go. 2 of the 3 had extensive mold. I have included a picture of the worst one.

    Cherry Peach Pie
    Jill H.

    Stopped in on a whim after a winter hike. We hadn't eaten since breakfast and were hungry. Although we had lunch plans elsewhere, we were enticed to buy a whole pie! We brought it home for that evening. After some debate, we settled on a cherry peach pie. The filling, as you can see, is generous. This is a pie packed with yummy goodness. The establishment is tiny, hole-in-the-wall vibe. Service was friendly; we were greeted upon walking in. Next time, I'd go for a few different slices rather than one whole pie, mainly so we could sample more flavors. Price was pretty standard for buying a whole pie - I think between $30-35. Pie lovers should definitely give this place a try! I mean, who doesn't need pie every now and then!?!

    S'mores pie with ice cream
    Mike G.

    We might need pie, but we probably don't need this pie again. Not wanting one of the fruit varieties, we each had a slice of the s'mores pie. Slices were small, and they were really just a firm chocolate pudding with mini marshmallows on top. Nothing about it really tasted like s'mores, and shouldn't a s'mores pie be served hot or at least the marshmallows have a char to them? Ice cream was good, but nothing else about the pie screamed anything we'd need again. We weren't even given (or even saw) napkins. Two slices with ice cream, tax, and tip for counter service was $20. I'll probably need a lot of things before more pie from here.

    Fun, lively restaurant with an 'oldies' theme. We stopped in just for dessert, a yummy piece of pie. I chose blueberry and peach pie and husband had s'more pie. We both liked our choices very much. They have indoor and outdoor seating. Their patio was cozy but a little too chilly for us so we took a table inside and listened to Elvis and other oldies music. Service was great. Servers were hustling back and forth to ensure speedy ordering and delivery of food. Their menu has funny ways of describing their options so take some time to find them and enjoy their humor. Fun stop.

    What kind of diner doesn't serve breakfast all day? Food quality was substandard, menu was very limited and pricey.

    Is this business pet friendly?

    I believe so if you keep them out on the patio area in which they have a very large and lovely patio.

    Are gluten free pies available?

    The beer was so nice I ordered the same one twice!…read more I put in 20 miles hiking Rocky Mountain National Park in a day a half. I slept about 4 hours the night before to make it early for sunrise. To say that a few tasty beers were what the doctor ordered would be the understatement of the century! None of this matters, of course, to the good folks at Rocky Cut Brewing Company. This is off the main drag of Estes in an unassuming strip plaza. Humble vibes inside, a simple U-shaped bar top with seating all around, a few smaller tables, a community table, and a large patio with mostly picnic table seating. If you're lucky, snag a stool right along the Big Thompson River! Though, I recommend they fix the wooden placeholders for beers, they're leaning on the wrong side of history, we don't want any full glasses of beer reaching an unnecessary demise! Interference IPA * American IPA * 6.7% * 16oz ($7) From their website: "Climbing the Interference Boulder in Rocky Mountain National Park requires strength and power. This Colorado IPA showcases the power of hops with an intense blend forging citrus aromas with a pine forward finish. Featured ingredients: Cascade, El Dorado, Mosaic, Chinook, & Simcoe hops * Recommended adventure: hiking Black Lake, climbing the Twin Owls, skiing upper Hidden Valley." A perfectly apt description. I would summarize this beer just as they did, focusing on hops, citrus, and pine. Absolutely delicious, a memorable IPA in recent memory. I liked it so much I ordered it again and it tasted just as delicious the second time down! They also had a food truck outside, so safe to assume they do this often. Would love to try more of their beers during my next visit. Rock Cut, I see you!

    We decided to try Antlers Rooftop Tavern because we were excited about the rooftop views…read more Our server, Eren, was friendly, attentive, and made sure we were taken care of throughout our visit. There were a couple of mix-ups with our order, including Mezcal which has a very distinct taste accidentally being added to my margarita, and some incorrect side dishes but the staff handled everything quickly and professionally. Since the restaurant had only recently reopened with a new menu, the mistakes were understandable. I ordered the Smashburger with fries, and my friend had the chicken fajita sandwich with a salad. The food was delicious, and the prices were reasonable for the area. The rooftop offers beautiful views of Estes Park and is conveniently located right in the shopping district. The only downside was the orange barrier coverings around parts of the rooftop while renovations were being completed. They blocked some of the views and took away a bit of the ambiance. Once those renovations are finished, this will be an even better spot. Great food, attentive service, and a fantastic location, I would definitely visit again once the renovations are completed.

    TLDR: There was a large piece of plastic and a bone from the meat in my food…read more Service: Me and my friend were really excited for this place but the food was extremely mid. We sat down and about 10 minutes later, a couple sat behind us and our waitress visited and brought water to their table first instead of ours. In addition, another couple behind us was not seen by any waiter/waitress and had to ask a worker (who might have been an assistant manager? Although, not clear what his position was) if they can order with him. Overall service felt scattered, a bit slow overall, and unprofessional. Food: I ordered the tex mex bowl with barbacoa. It tasted as expected, nothing spectacular. However, there was a massive piece of plastic in my food. I let the waitress know and she apologized on behalf of the kitchen. I kept the meal because I hate waste and I didn't see any other plastic pieces in the food. Right after I found the plastic, I also discovered a bone in the meat. It was big enough to hurt a tooth if I had bit down on it but thankfully I spit it out before I chewed my food completely. While a bone might be normal to find in meat, I was certainly unhappy that now two objects were in this food. I was never comped for my meal and the manager never visited my table to apologize. I only write reviews if I had a fantastic experience or when I feel the need to warn others about the restaurant. I recommend choosing another restaurant before choosing this one if you prefer quality food and service.

After one of my go-to nearby restaurants closed down, I decided to venture here for a burger. This place rocks! Boss Burgers and Gyros reminds me of a classic dive that we all know and love. Nothing fancy, no frills, no fuss, no pretentiousness, just tasty food at an affordable price. You order at the counter and the cashier gives you a table number. Plenty of outdoor seating with some indoor seating as well. This place gets pretty busy, but the staff hustles. Kitchen is cranking out relatively quick ticket times so you don't have to wait that long at all. For a cheeseburger with bacon and jalapeños and an order of cheese fries, this was $14 and change. And I added the bacon and jalapeños to the burger! In Denver, this would be $25, haha. The cheese fries (small) were really enough for two people. So you get your money's worth after a day exhausting yourself at RMNP. Burger was great. I added some mustard to mine at the table. It comes with LTO, ketchup, and mayo. This tastes like what you want at a backyard BBQ. Served on a red plastic tray with paper lining, this mom and pop place dishes humble food without breaking the bank. Bacon was crispy, cheese was melty, I had no complaints! Only knock on the cheese fries were that they desperately needed salt. It's not the best burger place of all time, but it doesn't need to be. These are the types of places I love supporting. Will return and maybe try an elk dog next time!
