Columbine Café

We appreciated that this cafe had a wide variety of food. Our kids loved the chicken tenders, fries and fruit cups. The food tasted very good, but the biscuits were dry. Our server was very helpful and friendly. They gave our kids a coloring page and crayons while we waited for our food.

Great breakfast! We were so happy with this place! Great service and very good food! Real maple syrup available!!! Perfectly cooked scrambled eggs! Lots of coffee refills. We parked a few blocks away and walked. The entrance sits between streets in a little alley way that stretches between the Main Street and the alley way it took a minute for us to figure that out but really it just added to the experience.

Quaint and cozy cafe with great comfort food. Friendly and attentive service. Large portions. The southwestern baked potato was tasty. The tortilla soup was a winner. Bacon was thick and delicious. Location is a little tricky to find. The restaurant is settled back off of the main road through town.

Excellent breakfast and selection! Veronica was a wonderful server! Had the trout and eggs. The green pork chili was excellent! The homemade corn beef hash had a nice smokie flavor! Everything excellent!! Didn't have the big pancakes, but took a picture of them. They looked good too!!

We stopped in here while on the way home from Breckenridge. We had to wait over an hour to get in on a Tuesday morning. The food is good, but not good enough to wait an hour for. The pancakes are huge. They cover an entire large plate. My omelette was fluffy and you could tell it was made with real ingredients. This place doesn’t let you split checks.

Came with a group of 6 and waited for about 5-10 minutes for a table on a Saturday morning. Ordered the Steak Benedict and was amazing the hash browns were great as well. Food was so good that we ended up coming for breakfast Sunday morning as well. Definitely would recommend this place.

Columbine is a treasure! We always go for breakfast and they have giant delicious pancakes. I’ve also had their omelettes and eggs Benedict. Lots of varieties to choose from. Last time I got the steak Benedict and blueberry pancakes.

This was a great find ... was up in Breckenridge for work, and had some time for breakfast. A bit challenging to find parking, but the curbside pay parking was on $0.50 for 90 minutes. Had the Philly cheese steak omelet, and it was loaded with ingredients. Very fresh and flavorful. I will definitely be visiting again, should the opportunity present itself.

Opened and Seating promptly at 730am. Warmth enveloped us with the smells, smiles, and decor. Chris Stapleton radio creates the welcome warm ambiance. Meal came out quickly. It looks so good, I Forgot to take a photo before I took some bites. Will we return? Absolutely. Great spot.

Columbine Cafe is just off the main strip of shops and restaurants, tucked away in a courtyard with an unmarked entry. Put your name on their wait list, but don't stray too far as the 20 min wait for us was only 12 minutes and they only hold the table for 10 minutes. The atmosphere is cozy and busy. It's obvious this is a popular place, and the staff did a fantastic job of getting our order to us quickly without making us feel rushed at any point along the way. In all we ordered a Courtyard breakfast with French toast, bacon, over easy eggs, and a fruit cup, the Columbine eggs bennedict with extra crispy hash browns, orange juice, grapefruit juice, and an oat milk latte. Our food arrived promptly and our order was correct down to the crispy hashbrowns. The poached egg was perfectly prepared, and the thick slice of ham was sweet, smoky, thick, and tender. Hollindase sauce was a little on the sweet side for my liking, but all in all was fantastic. The courtyard breakfast was also fantastic. The French toast was picturesque and nicely prepared. Real maple syrup would have been a nice touch as the syrup did have a bit of a sticky/stringy consistency. The fruit cup was lovely and included fresh strawberries as a pleasant surprise! The bacon was thick and tasty. At the end of our meal the check was handled very quickly. In summary this is a family friendly spot, with a mountain cabin atmosphere, good for boisterous conversation and a hearty meal.

We wanted a good breakfast before hitting the slopes. This is the spot! Nice portions, fast and friendly service. It had a nice, cozy atmosphere.

Yummy breakfast today. Their coffee is always fantastic. I went with my standard hangover burrito, which is large and filling. It could've been a little hotter, but it was fine. My wife had a build-your-own omelette, remembering to hold the peppers, which were too crunchy last time. She just got avocado, cheddar cheese, and spinach in her omelette, and she was happy with her choice. We also splurged and split one of the huge columbine cakes like we usually do. It's about the only time either of us get pancakes, and they really are that good. Columbine is always at the top of the breakfast list when we're in Breck.

Cozy mountain town cafe! Nothing fancy but great service and food. I don't believe they sell alcohol, but I had one of the best lattes I've had there! Will definitely be back next time I'm in town.

Outdoor, dog friendly with music created a nice ambiance, but no view of Main Street people-watching or the river (I'm being spoiled) Service from Brazilian waiter was superb. He definitely understood the bottomless coffee mug concept. Biscuits and Gravy are Not Great. In fact, worst in Breckenridge. Biscuits were good but gravy was bland, skimpy and without any sausage. Meh.

It's pretty busy inside, tucked in the back of some buildings. The server was very nice. - Bloody Mary 2.3/5 It was ok a Bloody Mary. - Huevos Rancheros 4.6/5 Very light tasting huevos rancheros. Lots of shredded lettuce. It's tasty with the green chile. - Porky's Ham Steak Special 3.2/5 Thick cut ham steak. Hashbrowns are not crispy sadly. Eggs cooked well. Just a normal ham steak. - Side of Red Bean Chili 5/5 Super yummy red bean chili. Free parking in lot and on the sides. Check the signage.

My sister had been here for breakfast previously and enjoyed it, but what a disappointment. There was hardly anyone there (on a Wednesday around Noon) so the service was okay. The Hangover Burrito, sweet cream pancake and Greek Salad were good but most breakfast items were bland and flavorless. The hash browns were especially offensive; tasting like day-old reheated potatoes. I have literally never been to a restaurant where the hash browns did not taste fresh. I asked the server about it and she said they were "making them all day" so I asked for a new order and she came back within 30 seconds ... Clearly not freshly made. While a bit warmer, they had the same bland, cardboard consistency of the first order. My husband doused his in ketchup to make them tolerable but I didn't even waste the calories. The biscuit that came with my omelette was also terrible; it seemed almost dehydrated (clearly also not fresh). You have to leave the restaurant (go back out through the entry door and down two flights of stairs) to use the restroom, which is actually the restroom of the bar below. Overall an odd breakfast experience.

Service was great, we all enjoyed our breakfast. Definitely recommend, right off Main St.

The fact that this cafe offers a vegetarian pepper white gravy completely sold me as biscuits and gravy are one of my favorite indulgent food and it's so hard to find a spot that doesn't serve sausage gravy. I was so happy with my breakfast here and could have licked the plate if that wasn't generally frowned upon in public. The biscuits and gravy come with hashbrowns and I opted to add two scrambled eggs with cheese to make it a complete meal. I had to try the apple pie cider, which is a spiced apple cider with cinnamon syrup and caramel syrup topped with whipped cream and cinnamon. It was so good and the perfect cozy drink for a winter day.

Coffee was great, staff wonderful and food awesome. Best cafe for normal people, not pretentious whatsoever.

Dined here after a friend recommended it during my time in Breckenridge. It was a Saturday around noon so they were quite busy but my husband and I were able to score 2 seats at the bar to be seated immediately. We had the corned beef benedict and hangover burrito. Both dishes were delicious. Their corned beef is cooked to perfection.

Could not recommend this place more for breakfast! So much I came two days in a row! Service is incredible and the food portions are awesome! My wife got the basic breakfast which was very filling for $10; I got the columbine breakfest, our sons got the kids pancake! My second visit I got the burrito and wowwwww it was so good and the green chili was phenomenal! If you're looking for a breakfest place look no more further than Columbine Cafe! Especially most times there are no wait!

Great food, ok service, while an well meaning waiter was attentive. My eggs came with a side of fruit that never arrived, but otherwise ok. We wont hold it against you. Prices manageable.

What a delicious breakfast! The food was delicious! We were sat right away and had the nicest waitress! I could not believe how quickly our food was served. Definitely would return!

Food: really good! Recommend the porky's ham steak, the corned beef hash, and my son lost his mind on the hangover burrito. Prices were very reasonable; you'd pay just as much in downtown Cowplop as you would here in a resort town. Definitely a local hangout. Son liked the spicy Bloody Mary, but be advised the garnish is a pickle. Unique. Plan on a wait for weekend breakfast. We waited about 40 minutes , but the place was slammed. Service was very good, and the food arrived promptly, and still hot( a real trick at this elevation), Small town, friendly vibe. It's the kind of place where you feel like a local after the second visit. All in all, you could spend more and get less.

Not an empty seat in the house for breakfast! Delicious!!! I had the Eggs Benedict and it was very filling.

Decent breakfast and prices. Pretty good service too. My toad in a hole egg was was undercooked with a runny white. The grits literally had no flavor options like cheese or jalapeño. I tried to save them with butter and hot sauce. We were offered coffees to go ftw! There was a hella grumpy server there dragging down the morale of both the employees and customers. He couldn't stop complaining and verbally attacking his coworkers about everything. We heard his thoughts on what was wrong with the building to why he always has to be the one to change the receipt tape. He was so extra in not a good way. With all the other places on the area, I'd patronize another deserving business.

Breakfast Burritos were delish.. Hangover Burritos good as well. Didn't try the coffee... next time

Columbine Cafe has a ton of options for breakfast and lunch. They are open daily 7:30am to 1:30pm. The service isn't overly friendly but fast. They know it's always tourist season in Breckinridge and try to accommodate that. The cafe is behind (and left) of the gift shop and to the right of Eric's. The inside has very cool wall and mostly consists of booths. The bathroom is downstairs and actually are Eric's bathrooms. We were there in the summer and it was so hot. They need another ceiling fan. My friend didn't look well. I got the breakfast sandwich cause I wasn't that hungry. I appreciate them having a smaller cheaper option. The sandwich and others breakfasts were good. If it's not very hot out I'd go back.

Excellent food & service! The hangover burrito was outstanding & the Huevos Ranchero was great as well !! Ask for some salsa with it if you like spicy!

Decent breakfast and very reasonably priced! I got the breakfast sandwich with bacon on a croissant for only $7 with a side of hash browns. Quick service with a diner feel.

Delicious, absolutely delicious food! Well balanced Spicy Bloody Maria & comfortable relaxing atmosphere! Service wa top notch & everything came out quickly!

Best breakfast place in Breck! I was in heaven at this place. The food is delicious and coffee is even better. Our server took great care of us with us having a large group of nine people. We all loved our experience here. 10/10!

Feb 10, 2023 Came in for breakfast, there was a 15 minute wait for 3. They were busy. We got seated after 15 and got waited on quickly. Got our breakfast quick too. We got biscuits and gravy, sides of bacon, lots of coffee, OJ, bacon eggs and biscuit, Angus beef hash benedict over hash browns. It was all FANTASTIC! Everything was so tasty and fresh. I had the beef hash Benedict and OMGosh soo good, ate the whole thing! Highly recommend

Columbine Cafe is THE brunch place to go to in Breckenridge if you like no frills, fast service, and large portions. I got the Columbine benedict with bacon and a small cup of fresh fruit, while my husband got the Hangover Burrito. It was all delicious! We ate here fairly early in the morning, and the portions were large enough that we weren't hungry until dinner. I also love that they offered to let me take my coffee to-go once we were done; it felt like good service while helping turn tables quickly. Bonus points for being kid-friendly as well!

Absolutely delicious! Pancakes were fluffy and large! Huevos rancheros made me feel like I was eating it back in Texas. Service was great! No splitting checks fyi

This place is overrated. Food was cold, bacon overcooked, waffle dry and fell apart. Tried to coach the manager...he didn't care. There are better places for breakfast.

Service was great! Sat at the bar and the food and drinks were very satisfying. We hid from the crowd on July 4th for a break during parade.

Nice, traditional breakfast spot in the heart of Main St in Breckenridge. No frills, solid food. Lots of options regarding egg dishes, especially benedicts, and also lots of variety with omelettes, etc. Friendly staff. Didn't have to wait too long for a table on a holiday weekend, which was nice.

1.5 Stars. Came here a few years ago for the breakfast burritos and it was fairly 3 star good. Came back a few years later for lunch and it was pretty disappointing. Me and my son each had soup $5.25 each and split a Classic Club $9.95. My daughter had the Grilled Chicken Breast $10.50 and Sweet Potato Fries upgrade $2. The club was okay nothing to write home about, but the soups were terrible. Super thick and not very tasty. Lots of fries with these meals. Perhaps I'll stick to the burritos on our next visit.

Cute looking cafe inside. They even have the Columbine flowers! Those flowers makes me very happy! Good service. We came here with our friends from Texas. Everybody was hungry and excited. I ordered the Belgium Waffle-sprinkled with powdered sugar served with syrup. That's the basic. so I ordered the Extras: fresh strawberries, fresh blueberries, bananas, walnuts , granolas. Their waffles are the thick heavy kind. I was hoping for the light fluffy crunchy on the outside and chewy all the way kind of waffle. It was like eating cardboard. As you guys can see from my photos, the rest of the group ordered something savory. The main complain? Lacking in salt. I feel like we walked into a nursing home. Where the food is bland. I know I tried my friends food and Adam D's scrambled eggs. His was dry and tasteless. You can see just looking at it that no matter how you slice this eggs it'll be dry. Now that was disappointing. Our hunger couldn't even cover the fact that their dishes are tasteless!

Warm and comforting food and ambiance! The decor is like a warm and cozy cabin. The hostess and wait staff were very sweet! Our server Grumpy Cat K was super friendly and quick with our order. The biscuits were nice and fluffy. Waffles and French Toast were delicious as well! Everyone around us ordered a pancake and it was huge!

Columbine Cafe has the interior charm of a great southern breakfast dinner, however it doesn't have the pricing or flavor to match. That is no knock on there food, it was good. It just did not match the price. The coffee is a great surprise, I had the Americano was one of the best I have had in a while. Service was also exceptional. If you want a dinner feel I would highly recommend columbine cafe, however I think the pricing needs to be tweaked

Hangover burrito and Mexican Scramble DELICIOUS. Food came out quickly and service was attentive. Cozy ambiance with some outside seating.

We went to the this cafe because of the awesome reviews on Yelp, and it didn't disappoint. We ordered the steak&eggs and chicken&waffles...both dishes were delicious and the steak flavor was on point! Our server was attentive and provided wonderful service. Highly recommend this place!

Mother's Day weekend and apparently we picked a slow weekend to come up to Breck but that's ok because there are still places to eat. Columbine was pretty good with GIANT pancakes. Look at the size of these in the photo. Service was fantastic and something that is a huge winner for me. Booth was small for a family of 5 but it was a small joint to begin with. Even during slow times get there early because they fill up fast. Next time we will try and sit outside, it was perfect weather for outside dinning.

This place was very mediocre. We came here because it was the only place open at 7:30 so we wandered in. You are immediately greeted with disclaimers about not being seated without full party present and our host made a comment about how we were blocking the entryway. To me, this put off an uncomfortable vibe. I had an omelet with ghost pepper cheese and it was decent. Nothing extraordinary but not bad either. The food was very mediocre and did not blow us away for the premium prices paid for a local restaurant. In a bind, this place worked but probably will not return.

Best breakfast place in Breck. Everything is fresh . .fruits, proteins, eggs . . Great espresso choices . . Staff is relaxed & professional

Tucked behind a popular bar this warm and woody place feels comforting. Exposed wood and wildlife paintings finish the ambiance. The menu is perfect for a pre ski or carbo load before mountain biking. Even given it's location, in the center of town, this is every bit the local stop and one you want to enjoy if you can get there early enough to get a seat. The food is fresh and delicious with care given to taste.

We ate here for the first time on our latest visit to Breck. It's a small place so there's usually a wait if there's more than two of you. My daughter and I were seated right away. I ordered their Courtyard breakfast and would get it again. They had a variety of menu options and everyone seemed to enjoy their meals. This will be one of our regular stops whenever we're back in Breck.

Solid breakfast and lunch restaurant. I come here for breakfast. The food is not greasy and comes out fresh tasting. The corned beef is homemade and amazing, the best I have ever had. I had the corned beef scramble with rye toast. The breakfast food is a five star experience. The interior could stand a remodel. I have been coming here for 20 years and will continue coming for that corned beef.

Pick something from the menu you normal can't make at home. That's what I did on a weekend trip a couple weeks ago. The result was an amazing breakfast burrito smothered in green chili and even accompanied with a side of salsa for everything else on the plate. Service came promptly and even at the right time each time. A cheery warmly greeted us as we were seated, joked around and even made suggestions. Nothing says more than that homie feeling. The waiter suggested that we order a coffee as the main dishes were taking a bit longer in the kitchen and so we did. While enjoying the people watching the entire experience really felt like being in someone's home. From beginning to end breakfast was fantastic all the way around. Afterwards, head downstairs to Eric's for some arcade action!

What a great spot right on Main Street! Pancakes and cinnamon rolls were the favorite from our crowd!! If we come back we would order pancakes all around a a couple cinnamon rolls to split at the table. I have to eat gluten free so the bowl of grits was the perfect meal. I did have to season it but there is salt, pepper and Tabasco which helped immensely. We also ordered the biscuits and gravely as well as French toast which was just ok. It was a little pricy but that seems to be the norm for this area. I will say the portion sizes were worth the price! If you are looking for cheaper options go with the pancakes and cinnamon roll. You will thank me later!

Great selection of delicious food. I am gf and vegetarian and I usually get the veggie scramble, it's very good. The waitstaff are very attentive and good service!

They served us very generous portions. The pasty melt was huge and very tasty with its mushrooms and translucent onions. The giant Cobb salad was loaded with all the goodies (ham bacon and eggs). The service was nice and attentive; we will definitely go back.

Stopped by early on a Sunday day at 930 and this was the time to go. We got a table right away. But when we left there were many waiters. Had the corned beef hash Benedict which was a flavorful deviation from the traditional Benedict. The gravy and biscuits didn't have sausage chunks which we were hoping for. But it tasted great and couldnt even finish it was too much. We like to come here when in breck but have to remember to get in early on the weekend. We were able to eat outside on the small patio area and enjoy the early morning fresh air.

Stopped into Columbine for breakfast last Saturday AM. I ordered the corned beef hash - it was good, but I've had better! The wait was quite long but that's due to the popularity of this spot. The service was great, we were attended to and never had empty cups. Would definitely dine here again.

Had biscuits and gravy. They were okay nothing to get excited about. Server never came and gave us a refill of our 3.50 cup of coffee. Service not good.
