Takeout Restaurant

Restaurant

Busey Brews Smokehouse & Brewery is a family-owned craft brewery and smokehouse that offers a variety of mouth-watering dishes and house-brewed beers. The menu features legendary smoked wings, mouth-melting prime rib, and a dozen house-brewed beers with creative names. Almost everything on the menu is smoked, including nachos, pulled pork green chile, hot links, and even tofu.

Stopped here on our way to Boulder and we were very happy with our choice. Definitely get the dry rubbed wings, they were some of the best we've had. The Mac and cheese with brisket was amazing! The brisket sandwich was great too. The smoked maple stout came with smoked bacon, chef's kiss. If you're going through here definitely stop by.

@buseybrews wings are deservedly notable. They are super tender [without being mealy or dried out] and have great smoke flavor. You have to like smoked wings that aren’t crunchy from being fried. The buffalo sauce had a lot of good flavor but was mild and light on the vinegar.Unsure if I had a bad batch or maybe the end of the batch of brisket. It had good flavor but it was a bit dry and tough. I’d be willing to try it again. The hot link was good, just not how I like it, it was more finely ground and almost emulsified (like a hot dog.) The sides I got: Mac and cheese, and cornbread were amazing.The mule shoe milk stout was really good and exactly what I like, mild on the hops but rich with the chocolate and coffee notes. Worth the trip—especially with all the cute shops nearby and lots of free parking.

What a great find! We had a particularly good meal and fabulous service here, will definitely be coming back! Our server Kylie was just awesome! Super helpful, quick and so friendly! The manager Josh also checked in with us and we had a great talk, wonderful folks who love the food biz! My kinda people!When the food arrived it looks so incredible that I forgot to take pictures, darn it! I’ll take more next time. I hate it when that happens!The general theme is smokehouse, and everything was cooked beautifully! We had the Prime Rib French Dip and the Club Sandwich and they were great, particularly the meats! The house smoked turkey on the club sandwich was incredible and it was finished with a sun dried tomato aïoli, it was just perfect! The French dip was even better in my opinion because of the meat; that smoked prime rib was juicy, incredibly flavorful and as tender as could be. I had it with spicy giardinara (homemade I think) and horseradish cream, didn’t even dip the sandwich, it was perfect as is. I chose the side salad for two dollars more, it was fabulous! My grandson loves noodles but doesn’t like macaroni and cheese, so they just made him some plain noodles with butter and he was so happy!Drinks! The house made beer list was incredible, my son was thrilled with his Pale Ale and there were a surprising number of great beer choices on the list. We also tried the gin and tonic, made with ‘Gold Dirt’ brand gin produced just down the street. Also the Coin Margarita, very tasty!The place wasn’t very big, however, they’re building a huge addition on the back, should be done soon! They’re even solar powered!Thanks cooks, Kylie and Josh!

Busey Brews Smokehouse & Brewery rocks!!! Not only do they play great music, but they also have great beer and food as well! The macaroni, cornbread, coleslaw, and prime rib dip are a must! My wife doesn't even like coleslaw very much, but she LOVES it from here. This is a very great restaurant in a very cool town. We tried a flight of beers, and they were all delicious. 😎

Marc Cooper — Google review

Wow - this place is a gem. They smoke and brew everything in house and everything we tasted was perfect. Highly recommend the beer cheese soup and their wings, they are fall off the bone good, and you can’t go wrong with any beer choice. Great hospitality too. Well done! Can’t wait to be back.

Katie Robertson — Google review

Stopped by this place on vacation and it was amazing! They brew their own beer, I really loved the Groomer IPA. Their brisket is some of the best I've had, and the mac and cheese was sooo good. Great atmosphere, very friendly staff. Highly recommend stopping here if you're driving through the mountains around Boulder. I can't wait to go back someday.

robin mackey — Google review

I wish there were more stars to give this place! The smoked wings were the best I’ve ever had! The beer was ice cold, and the atmosphere and scenery were astounding!

Paul Paxton — Google review

I don’t know if I can express how amazing this place is using simple words, so I’m gonna try onomatopoeia.Pow! That’s some mighty fine barbecue (BBQ)! They have plenty of gluten-free options, a wide variety of proteins, their staff is incredibly helpful and are genuinely good people!You might catch some live music, or taste the best wings you’ll ever find.Totally worth the drive up to Nederland. Great for coming back from Eldora ski resort, or if you’re just passing through.Highly recommend!

We love this place! We were in town for a show at Red Rocks and made sure to get back to this place. I had a smoked tofu slider and my spouse had the wings. Both made for a nice lighter lunch. As for beers, you really can't go wrong! Also, the staff are fantastic (friendly, interesting, and welcoming).They are getting ready for a remodel of their back deck. The plans look great and I can't wait to go back and enjoy the view even more!

Angela Schubert — Google review

Took a long adventure from Denver to try Busey Brews Smokehouse & Brewery. Overall, I was impressed. Good bbq and really nice service. If you’re visiting, make sure to get the wings as they are very good and I also loved the brisket chili.Great mirror for a quick selfie too. If you’re in the area, stop by and give it a try.

John Kennedy — Google review

Unfortunately, this BBQ was lacking. The brisket chili had way too much salty seasoning with more beans than meat. The green chili was missing flavor, added BBQ sauce to up the flavor. The BBQ ribs on the menu say St. Louis but we received baby back ribs. They were so covered in a salty dry rub you could not taste the meat. Sadly we ended up throwing out most of the BBQ. The beer was good and service was good.

Larson Productions — Google review

Really good Bbq and beers. The beet salad was off the charts good. You scan the QR code then place your own order in and the wait staff will then bring it out to you. Great patio !!!!! Wonderful views. We would go back in a heartbeat!

Barbara Rice — Google review

Nederland BBQ at its finest! It is located on Main Street one block.off the Peak to Peak Highway. Park in lot across Main or on the street in front.I had the BBQ chicken sandwich with Mac n cheese. Will be having it again soon. Favorite Mac and cheese for a long time.New outdoor deck with table serving along the river.Full service Bar with big screen TV. Walk to the lake in 5 minutes.

We casually strolled by, peaked in a bit and thought we'd come back by for a beer later. We didn't know such a gem of a place was waiting for us! Leroy the bartender was dancing a jig to some really great, eclectic music playing and greeted us with a "welcome to the happiest place on earth". Everyone that works there was friendly and fun. Busey Brews put a lot of thought into creating a great atmosphere for guests with a welcoming space and a great back patio area with views of the Eldora Ski Resort. It's a true smokehouse with pits for the meats (Ned Rub Wings were excellent). It's a true brewery with kettles and tanks and most importantly - BREWMASTERS. Steve and Tony, pictured, are a father, son team with decades of experience in crafting the perfect blend for many varietals of flavors, types, also pictured. They love what they do and it shows (tastes) :) We'll be back when we're in NED and we encourage everyone to indulge as well. Get to Busey Brews and have a great time, great food, great brew.

Stephanie Erwin — Google review

The staff is friendly and the service is amazingly fast. You can order through the app and it felt like seconds the drinks came out, the food was well. The nachos were delicious, the chips tasted smoked, and came with salsa. I really liked the salsa. The one thing I would ask for is more nacho cheese, it was just on the surface. We ordered brisket on top of the nachos, which you can have as a meal. The fajitas for the fajitas for two were mouth watering, more tortillas and guac next time, I could've eaten the mixings of fajitas and guac. The food was on the pricier side, I hear the beer is good.

Mindy — Google review

Had the Brisket Royal with a side of mac n cheese. Picture the best Philly Cheese Steak but with brisket. It and the Mac was mouth watering! Their beer is great as well. Going to be a returning customer for sure.

Joe Callicott — Google review

Absolutely the best luck we have had since we got here to colorado. We could smell the smoker working when we first got here. Asked around, and everyone raved about the bourbon wings. And they we on point. We ran the gambit. An Amazing prime rib French dip.The brisket sandwich was off the hook. My wife had the beet salad that was awesome too. Nico had the Nachos with brisket. OMG we couldn't finish half. Gotta send Guy Fiere here

Richard Obermayer — Google review

Delicious kombucha, decent wings and reasonable prices.We didn’t try any of the entrees but the apps we had were pretty okay. The dry rub wings were favorable albeit overcooked 4/5The chips/queso was just okay - not much to look at for the price in my opinion 3/5Bathroom was clean 5/5Service was relatively attentive for a busy Sunday 4/5

Nepalese restaurant

Indian restaurant

Vegetarian restaurant

Kathmandu Restaurant is a charming eatery located in Nederland, offering a delightful fusion of Nepalese and Indian cuisine. The restaurant boasts a diverse menu featuring an array of delicious Nepalese dishes and traditional Indian fare. Visitors can enjoy the cozy ambiance while savoring authentic flavors from the Himalayas.

We stopped by Kathmandu after a 13hour long car drive and this place didn't disappoint at all. We tried the Tandoori Chicken Curry and Chicken Momo and although the Chicken Momo didn't taste as authentic because the dough was quite chewy it was still pretty good. Would definitely visit back someday!

Jen Gurung — Google review

I'm a visitor from New York, and my Colorado friends said that Himalayan food was a surprise staple of the area. OH MY GOODNESS were they not wrong!! What astounds me is how *hearty* this cuisine is. As one local friend put it, "Imagine Indian food but cooked by my Norwegian grandma." Our lunch was entirely vegetarian, but we were just as full as from any omnivorous meal. Additionally, I must praise the attentive, kind staff here, who made sure that all of our needs were attended to and served us mere minutes after we put in our order. I cannot recommend this place any more highly and only regret that I could not try every dish in one sitting!! The next time I visit, I will absolutely return here (or attend their Boulder location).

DJ G — Google review

After a day of skiing, this was the perfect restaurant to go to for a delicious filling meal! We got the buffet and there were so many tasty options. We were both very full and satisfied after the meal, and it was absolutely delicious and authentic food. The service was amazing and everyone was very friendly. We are definitely coming back!

Ivory Carpenter — Google review

Some of the best Indian food you can find. Great buffet and my wife loves the ability to make anything there dairy free by subbing coconut milk for the milk in the sauces.

Drew Sugarman — Google review

I could rate this at 3.5 ⭐. Momo's were Ok to try and the noodles were a good find in this remote area. Really, loved the Naans. If you are craving for close to Indian food on the way to Rockies this is worth a try.

Sridhar Gubba — Google review

Amazing food. Best food we have had on our 4 days adventure in the Rocky Mountains. Estes Park didn't have many options. This was by far the best in a long time. The buffet price and quantity/quality.Highly recommend!!

Great Mountain Town Indian place. The buffet was really good and bottomless chai was delicious. They also had a few decent beers. Value was pretty good.

Bill King — Google review

My wife and I were in the mood for Indian/Nepalese food, and saw this restaurant on the way through Nederland in the morning. After a beautiful hike in Brainard Lake Rec Area, we stopped in for a late lunch/early dinner.The food was authentic and delicious. My wife had the paneer tikka masala and I ordered the meat combination platter. So much food, but almost finished it all.

Was traveling through Nederland on the way to Idaho Springs around lunch time. We decided to check this place out & I am so happy we did. We had the buffet & everything was excellent and at a very fair price for the quality of food.

Pizza restaurant

CROSSCUT PIZZERIA & TAPHOUSE is a cozy spot in Nederland, Colorado, known for its wood-fired pizzas and refreshing selection of craft beers and wines on tap. The charming chartreuse building is conveniently located near a rustic trailhead, offering a picturesque setting especially during snowy seasons. Locals and visitors alike rave about the delicious pizza options such as cheese with baby kale and mushrooms, Hawaiian, NYC style, and Margherita.

Whatever recipe they use, it’s addictive! Best pizza outside of Italy, IMO. Perfect crust every single time. Solid vegan options, which makes me go back again and again. Great service, with indoor and outdoor seating. It gets very busy and wait times can be challenging but that’s what happens when you have the best pizza around!

Kira Rukin — Google review

My wife and I ate supper at Crosscut Pizza on Sunday October 23, 2022. It was a bit busy and we had a short wait which was no problem because they have a great bar in the back. We have eaten at Crosscut a lot of time and have always had a great experience.The customer service is excellent and their pizza and beer even better. We love this place! The bar has a wide selection of local beer and wine. I’ve never had the wine therefore, I can’t comment on it but the beer selection is top notch!We ate inside and the place is decorated very nicely with paintings by local artist. Crosscut has a very cool authentic vibe. I think you are going to like it! The bathrooms are clean and there is additional seating outside for warm days. The views are incredible!Everything we’ve eaten has been great, no complaints at all. My favorite combination is the Margherita pizza with the arugula salad. Ask your server to bring the salad out with the pizza then dump the salad on top of the pizza and enjoy!!!Parking is free and not a problem. You can park on the street or in the lot behind the Visitor’s center. Stop in for a beer and pizza, I’m sure you will have a great experience!

Brent Nichols — Google review

If you and your friends or family want to make an already cool trip to Nederland even better make sure to stop by Cross cut pizzaria. My wife and I love this place and often times will make the drive up to Nederland just to eat here.The Mario pizza is our personal favorite for many reasons but the locally sourced Clydes sausage puts it over the top in our opinion. We also like to start with the traditional ceasar ,which even has anchovies. The beer selection is perfect in that there are not 1000 choices to overwhelm but just enough quality choices to make for a great accompaniment to your meal. The atmosphere embodies what I consider to be a great cross-section of locals, tourists ,working class and blue-collar and a nice collection of awesome canines. You can enjoy your food and drinks inside or outside under the shade of one or two outdoor porches. The back porch although it is small has a wonderful view of the creek and a great breeze on most afternoons. Overall you should give this place a shot it has a lot going for it from location to great food to cool people to wonderful views… what’s not to like.

Wow! Amazing pizza! Great beer selection and the absolute BESTservice we have had possibly EVER!! Kara "with a "K"" was amazing.

Great atmosphere, service, and selection! Well done.

Cute little pizzeria with lots of seating and a spacious patio. Super family friendly, always. Pretty busy when they are open so give yourself plenty of time. The staff is friendly, the prices are a little higher than other pizza places but are good considering that it's in a small mountain town, and you definitely get a good amount of food for what you pay for! The pizzas are a little bigger than personal pizza size which is nice and I love the variety that they have. Despite being super slammed they were quick to get our drinks in and the pizzas to us.

Casey Elliott — Google review

Holy moly, talk about an amazing pizza pie! Me and my hiking buddies stumbled upon this joint after hiking and being starving. All it took was driving by this place, and smelling the fresh, stone baked pizza smell floating out of the open windows. We were hooked. Pizza is made with fresh ingredients and they also have gluten free options. For sure add this into your travel destinations!

Maddie Olson — Google review

Quite possibly my favorite pizza ever. Delicious taste of wood smoke, and great combinations of toppings. The crust is also excellent, thin and flavorful without being hard or chewy. There's always a good variety of beers on tap. I sat on the new outdoor deck, and enjoyed the view of the town and mountains.

Timothy Keebler — Google review

Went here after a nice three hour hike and delicious fresh hot pizza and decent ceaser salad. It was busy had to wait a bit before being seated and had to sit by the bar because everything else was taken. Awesome decor, views and vibes.

Shirley M — Google review

We come here regularly and really love it. I also lived in Ned and believe this to be one of the best places in town.Wood fired pizza with a thin, crispy crust. Some very inventive flavor combinations and always high quality ingredients. For example, tonight we had the Melanzana pizza, which has an eggplant base, fresh mozzarella, and olives and tomatoes. It may not look like much in the picture, but it was amazing. Creamy, savory, and very unique. Yes, there is ranch in the pic for dipping because we're ratchet.Previously our favorite was the Gorgonzola pizza, but its not on the menu anymore. The menu rotates every summer.There is a nice beer selection too and good appetizers to compliment the pizza.One pizza and an appetizer in my opinion feeds 2 people comfortably.It can get busy here but the service is always good. Lots of traffic from skiers and hikers who pass through town.When the weather is nice, the patio is lovely and dog friendly.

Anna P — Google review

Dynamite pizza! Good beer selection. Friendly staff and nice outdoor seating options.I will definitely visit again if back in town.

Brad Kosar — Google review

We love it here. Always friendly service even during their rush. They offer a great selection for all diets including GF drinks and food, vegetarian and vegan options. Their wood fired pizza is done so well. I wish they used Miyokos pizza mozz. It is by far the best vegan cheese option (we have been testing in our wood fired oven over the last two years).

Amanda Rice — Google review

We stopped here after a hike and it was a great choice. It's a popular place, so there was a wait, but we just browsed some shops around town.My husband and I shared:- Vodka Pizza- JacobBoth pizzas were very good. The olives made the vodka pizza a bit too salty for me, so I just took them off. I'd definitely come back for more pizza.

Jacqueline Telljohann — Google review

My new favorite place. Discovered this last month and have been back 3 times with different friends. Definitely ask to sit on the deck and try the extra special cheese pizza. Their hardwood smoked bacon is 👌👌 (first photo)

Sam Taylor — Google review

Sat on the cute back patio that overlooks the river. Love that they had gluten-free options for food and drinks! The people were really friendly. The gluten-free pizza was a bit pricey so I didn't get a chance to try it but all the rest of the pizza looked amazing so hope to get back to try it. The Greek salad was okay but could have used some more toppings.

Malissa T — Google review

Some of the best wood-fired pizza I’ve ever had. Really great selection of several classic pies (margherita, vodka sauce, clam pie), highly recommend the ned haven, and gorgonzola. Quite packed and seemingly always busy, but well worth the wait!

Arman Analouei — Google review

We’ve been here twice now for dinner and both times were just stellar. The food is excellent across the board, they have a great selection of beers, and our server (same one both times) was the perfect mix of friendly and efficient without being overbearing. I cannot recommend the Extra Special Cheese pizza enough. The honey chili oil is the perfect complement to the bacon and fresh jalapeños. We will be back again very soon!!

Jason Matsumoto — Google review

When I tell you this was the easily some of the best pizza I have ever had, I'm not kidding. The elk meatballs were delicious, and our service was wonderful. This was recommended to us by our Airbnb and it did not disappoint. I could not recommend this place more. It was such a vibe with amazing food!

Thai restaurant

Asian restaurant

Southeast Asian restaurant

Ubon Thai Cuisine is a popular restaurant located on Boulder Canyon Drive, offering a diverse menu of Thai dishes. The combination appetizer features egg rolls, fried shrimp, chicken wings, and crab rangoons. The chicken panang curry is described as incredibly creamy with bell peppers in a delightful glaze. The menu includes Tibetan-style momos and mango curry among other options. Despite being in the rural mountains, the food is fresh and cooked to perfection with their own unique twist on each dish.

Everything from the food to the servers we're amazing! My girlfriend and I both ordered Pad Thai. She got beef, and I got chicken. Very good! The Chai Tea was amazing, too! Definitely would recommend to anyone traveling through here!

Justin Chavez — Google review

We got there for a late lunch after a day of snowshoeing at Caribou Ranch.We were quickly seated and our orders taken. My husband and I shared a Thai iced tea and I cannot tell you how good it was. With every sip we would look at each other and say yum! Let me say it is an acquired taste but it is so good of an acquired taste.The food came out I felt relatively quick and our orders were perfect. Though I did find the spring rolls a little dry the sauce helped with that. My husband and I shared an order of Pad Thai with chicken and are very glad we share, because it was a lot of food. The noodles were cooked perfectly, the chicken was moist and the sauce was not overly spicy. My one complaint would be not a lot of vegetables were in it. We are used to eating Pad Thai from a well-known chain restaurant where they add a very generous amount of vegetables to the dish.My my friends ordered the sweet and sour chicken and were able to get it grilled not fried. I did not know that you could order sweet and sour that way. When I think of sweet and sour I think of fried lumps of dough with chicken inside. Instead, this became a light meal, with vegetables (much more than we had with our Pad Thai) and a perfectly balanced sweet and sour sauce.When we go snowshoeing again out at Caribou Ranch, I am sure we will stop here for a late lunch once more and try other items on their extensive menu.

Really good food all around, very filling. The staff is very nice and the service is fast. The space is nice, I sort of wish there was a little music in the background. They have a huge patio space. To park you have to drive behind the left side of the building- there isnt a ton of parking

Small little restaurant with booths and tables. There was a little fireplace but it was not on when we were there. The pad see ew was good. The drunken noodles were on the sweeter side of the dishes, the noodles were under al dente. Prices were not bad for portions. That tea was good. The staff was friendly.

Mindy — Google review

Wasn't sure how good a Thai restaurant would be in the rural mountains, but everything here tasted so incredibly fresh and was cooked to perfection, with their own little twist on each dish. They have gardens in the front of the restaurant growing peas, lettuce and all sorts of things which I'm certain we are, and they didn't even advertise that they are garden-to-table! The Thom Kha (coconut soup) was delicious and the Larb was light and fresh and cooked perfectly. My favorite thing? The 🥭 Mango Sticky rice 🥭 was absolutely the best I've ever had, and I am very particular about my rice. Just amazing, and they are so humble. Highly recommend!

I didn't like my fish curry the other day. It's just normal food. It didn't made satisfy. It just white sauce and they put potato and pineapple cubes. I'm from Asia I expect more than this. Maybe because they're in the mountain. Hard to get a right ingredients.

Jhonalyn Smith — Google review

High quality cuisine in a tiny town! Clean, cozy, and with a view of the mountains. Sipping hot Chai and sinking into the creamiest coconut red curry veggie bowl. I LOVE that the curries can be made vegan and without the traditional fish sauce.Lots of vegetable options for the plant based diners.Customer service was phenomenal! James ran the whole front of the restaurant by himself and was STILL attentive to every person who walked through the front door.

We were obviously there between the lunch and dinner crowd but still received good service and the food was excellent. Pictured here is the Pad Thai and Drunken Noodles, the two dishes we ordered. Yum!

Vegan options! Yummy food and quick service. Parking lot and bathrooms. Open for dining in. I had the Green Curry and mango sticky rice - both vegan (no dairy no fish sauce). Quiet place. Decent prices.

Cortney Palm — Google review

This is some of the worst Thai food I have ever had if not the worst. I hate leaving bad reviews so this was stressful, but I was just shocked at the quality of the food, especially as the restaurant had such a high rating. The meat we got was very very chewy, and the meal that I had tasted a lot like a frozen meal. None of the ingredients felt fresh. Even the rice felt really dry and like it was sitting around. The curry was like 99% cream as well. The fried food was the only good thing about our meal, but they did not make up for the main entrees. I rarely, if ever, do not take food home as leftovers, but I barely ate my food and did not take it as leftovers. The service was okay and the waitstaff was friendly, but the whole experience left a lot to be desired. I would think a restaurant rated so highly would serve fresher, better food, but it did not. I had to go home and order food from my favorite Thai restuarant to get the taste of this food out of my mouth. Maybe it was just an off day for them.

The weekend concluded on a positive note at Tres Gringos, where a combination of tasty tacos, tequila shots, plantain ice cream sundaes, and cerveza created an enjoyable Friday night. Although the absence of Al Pastor tacos was disappointing, the lively ambiance and convenient ordering process made up for it. The carne molida tacos were elevated versions of ground beef with onions while the carnitas proved to be average and stringy.

By far the best restaurant in Nederland-proper, full stop. Consistently delicious food and consistently generous portions; the chimichangas and enchiladas are standout tracks, so to speak, but it’s all impressive. Great selection of continuously inventive artisan margaritas (that really pack a punch), and other co*cktails. Wonderful owners & staff. I’ve lived up here for many years, & Tres Gringos is one of the only culinary establishments that really delivers the goods. No price gouging (despite inflation), no cutting corners. Worth every penny, and a jovial hub, to boot. 🍹 🌶️ 🥑

Nice little restaurant that offers outside or inside dining. I ordered the cheese enchilada's with rice, black beans, and the veggies. The presentation was great. The food also tasted good. The reason I gave the food 3 stars was because the cheese enchilada's didn't meet my expectations. They didn't have much cheese. In my opinion, a more accurate description of what was served would be 3 small cheese quesadilla's, with very little cheese, smothered in red sauce. Every other restaurant where I've ordered cheese enchilada's serves a rolled shell filled with lots of cheese. That's what I was expecting. Also, the menu doesn't say that there's a $4 upcharge for the veggies. I feel that should be communicated on the menu to avoid confusion. In summary, if you go to this restaurant I'd recommend that you ask your server for a detailed description of what your ordering to make sure you'll be getting what you expect. Also, when you order, ask about upcharges that aren't identified on the menu.

Roger Parker — Google review

The food is flavorful and delicious! The presentation was 5 star, we were not expecting that. Our server was spot on, very attentive, pleasant and helpful. If you have not tried this place, you are missing out.

Chris Hodges — Google review

What a wonderful surprise. I'm usually unimpressed with most Mexican food places, but Tres Gringos was excellent. Fresh, flavorful food made with care. We had the veggie enchiladas and the mushroom taco and the fried cod taco. (plenty for 2 people). They were all amazing. The mushroom taco especially. Toss in friendly service, and this place is a real winner! I would eat here every week if I could😂😂

Debbie Vischer — Google review

Cant really say enough good things. The food is always amazing. ALWAYS. The owners and staff are the most genuine and great people and truly cultivate an atmosphere that keeps you coming back. Ben has gone above and beyond for myself, friends and clients to make things last minute or dishes that are no longer on the menu. You just don't get that at most places anymore. The margaritas are hands down the best in town and honestly in Boulder County. 10/10 recommend

Daniel Vollmer — Google review

We went to this little gem on a cold rainy day and it was warm and fun inside, with delicious food that was worth every penny! Our server (Whitney) was AMAZING and had excellent suggestions on how to mix things up like dipping the nachos in their hatch green chili. Would definitely go again to try all the tacos on their menu!

Amy C — Google review

Too busy, disorganized service. Staff was very nice.Food was definitely 2 stars.Chips and salsa are actually a appetizer, which is fine if it's yummy, but it's not.

L S — Google review

Updating in response to restaurant response: your waitress denied me service since I had a dog with me. Hence my review. My reviews reflect the service and I’ve left many 5 stars at deserving businesses. You should take this personally. You lost out on business in an already shaky economy and said waitress lost out on at least a 25% tip. The response I received only solidifies the fact that I’ll never even chance this business and hopefully others see how immature a response you left and decide not to give patronage as well.For a place that boasts being dog friendly they sure are not very dog friendly. Missed out on a fat tip and probably the easiest table they’d have dealt with all night. Their loss though not mine.

Outstanding vegan and non vegan food! And great margaritas too! Always had great service too. Vegan taco is wonderful, they have vegan nachos and other vegan dishes too. I HIGHLY recommend!

Backcountry Pizza is a casual eatery that offers a variety of food options like pizza, sandwiches, and draft beer. The ambiance is relaxed with televisions and arcade games for entertainment. While the staff seemed overwhelmed and could have used assistance, they maintained a positive attitude. The menu includes chicken strips, salads, fries, and pizzas. Although the pizza was average in taste and slightly oily, the overall experience was pleasant.

Overall experience was great!This place is very easy to find on Google maps. There is plenty of parking in the "village" lot and the restaurant is located on the second floor of the building top left corner.The staff are very friendly and the service was fast as well. From order to getting our food was about 15 minutes. We ordered the pesto pizza, cheese bread, wings, and french dip. All of the food tasted fantastic. There is seating both inside and outside on the deck, with bathrooms in the back. A few arcade games are also inside if you want to send your kids away while waiting for food. They also have a full bar with plenty of drink options.We will definitely be coming back as this is now our favorite restaurant in town!

Stopped here to grab some dinner. The staff was extremely friendly, looked like they could use some help. The place was full and their was 1 guy taking orders over the phone, helping people at the bar, bringing food out and trying to clean up tables. The other guy was cooking. They had a great attitude though! We ordered chicken strips, a salad, fries and pizza. The pizza took the longest and they apologized for the wait. It’s your pretty basic pizza, nothing special. A bit greasy. Overall nice experience!

It was a good stop - the curly fries were delicious. The pizza is good. All of it was good, not spectacular, but good.

Amanda E. McCosh — Google review

Trash. The girl that took my order over the phone was rude and even more rude in person. The food is trash. The wait time was 45 minutes. I asked for ketchup when I got there and she pointed to a table with 4 people still eating and ketchup packets randomly strewn about the table and said “there’s ketchup on that table I’m busy”. I frequent Nederland and am glad to never go back to this location. The food is as pathetic as the service.

Steven Trevino — Google review

Amazing place. The inside was clean and they even had two old game cabinets: Mrs. Pac-Man and another unlabeled one. The pizza took at least 40 minutes but there were plenty of refills on soda.

Stopped for lunch on President’s Day. We ordered four slices of pizza and some chicken fingers for two adults and three kids. There weren’t a lot of seats available, but we were made to feel welcome at the bar, even with three kids.One slice and the chicken fingers came out right away and were great. The curly fries were exceptionally delicious. However the other three slices, including two cheese slices for the kids, took about 45 minutes due to some kind of miscommunication. However, we were reassured several times and apologized to and they covered some drinks for us while we waited.Even though it took longer than anticipated, everyone left full and happy.Good food and friendly folks!

Sandwiches, mini-donuts & locally roasted brews served in a set of vintage railroad coaches.

We love the train car donut and coffee shop. This has been our secret getaway spot for years. My kids love this place, they love the games, piano and kid upper deck. I love their tea selection too. Their food menu is great too, salmon bagel for the win.

Lauren Hughes — Google review

Loved that this place is actually inside a train car. The music and staff are friendly. Had the Thomas, pesto on croissant and it was pretty tasty. If you get donuts, go for the dozen, we had the cinnamon powdered sugar and enjoyed it. I usually go for cold drinks regardless of the season, but was surprised by how well the salted caramel macchiato tasted hot. The burritos were ok, the Southwest Sammie was good. A penne press was used for all the sandwiches and burritos, and tasted better than that looked.

I really enjoyed the vegan burrito and am grateful but it cost me $16 with tip and wasn't even very big. This is a really cool place but I probably won't stop here again for food with the prices being that steep. Edit: the owners reply makes me rethink this as I do support the local ingredients and ability to pay a living wage to employees!

Lizzie Cecchett — Google review

This is one of the most unique places I have stopped for coffee. I got a coffee and a small biscuits and gravy plate. The coffee was good in my opinion but my girlfriend who has a more refined pallet thought it was okay.My small biscuit and with gravy tasted good but was very overpriced. It was $6 and some change for a single biscuit with gravy.Overall my experience here was decent. I'd definitely visit again for the unique experience and coffee. But I'd inquire more before ordering to know what I'm paying for.

Salto Coffee is a cozy coffee shop, filled with the delightful aroma of premium beans, adorned with rustic wooden beams on the ceiling. It attracts the typical Colorado granola enthusiast, often seen carrying a pre-roll and donning Birkenstocks in warmer weather. This establishment conveniently shares space with Tin Shed, an outdoor gear store specializing in bikes and skiing equipment.

My girlfriend and I love trying out as many coffee shops as we can during vacations. This one was definitely one of the best and one we will frequent. The atmosphere is very homely and we felt very at ease here. The baristas were incredibly knowledgeable and able to guide us throughout the ordering process. Syrups are house-made and not to sweet! The Orange Cardamom latte is a must!!!

Jack Frost — Google review

My husband and I embarked on a scenic Fall foliage drive during the last weekend of September, with a pit stop in the charming mountain town of Nederland, CO. We decided to grab a quick bite at Salto Cafe. Having already indulged in coffee earlier that morning, we opted for salads and a side of sourdough toast with butter.I ordered the Greek Salad with grilled chicken, and it met my expectations. The portion size was just right for me. On the other hand, my husband chose the Caesar Salad with grilled chicken. While he liked the flavor, it left him wanting more, and he wasn’t too keen on the texture and consistency of the dressing.The cafe exudes a welcoming atmosphere, and its outdoor seating is a perfect choice when the weather is pleasant.

Portions are small and more on the pricey side. Ordered the biscuit egg sandwich for 6$ and it was very small but good quality. Would rather of paid more for a larger meal.

What a fantastic place! High ceilings and beautiful art, beautiful coffee, good food (falafel pita, in this case.) I love the additional unique flavors - I got orange cardamom in my latte. I'm staying with friends in town and it's their favorite of the three coffee shops in town. The power even went off while we were there (on the first trip) and they just kept on going with whatever they could do! (We came back when the power came back on.)Edit - I've been back on a Sunday morning and really enjoyed another orange cardamom latte, a scone, and an egg sandwich, all of which were wonderful. That scone was huge and pretty amazing, in particular. Highly recommended!

Deli

The Deli At 8236' is a simple and straightforward sandwich shop with outstanding sandwiches. The owner, Ross, is accustomed to accommodating dietary requests such as gluten-free, vegetarian, and vegan options. The deli offers a delicious buff chick sandwich that was particularly enjoyable. If there wasn't a queue after finishing one's meal, it would be tempting to purchase another sandwich for the next day.

This place is awesome what can I say. The staff is so kind and if the vibe here is so great. I have never had such a great Italian sub I only remember this from back in the 70s cuz if not found anything this good and longtime stop in this is worth your time

You can get the lunch combo with a drink and chips for just over 10 dollars, and it's well worth it. Highly recommend

Michael Ethredge — Google review

Decent sandwiches but 50/50 chance you’re missing ingredients or the bread is underbaked. Charge more money instead of skimping on ingredients. 2 slices of tomato for a 12” club and 1 tbsp of lettuce is unacceptable. If you’re that cheap to skimp people on veg just charge an extra $1 or 2 and I’ll pay it. People working the counter always seem stoned out of their brain and the place is dirty for a restaurant. Haven’t been in person since they “remodeled” and were closed over for over a month so hopefully it’s better now.To be clear I order from here once a week for almost two years now and the quality is wildly inconsistent depending on who is working.

Connor Reeves — Google review

This is a no frills deli that serves up phenomenal sandwiches. I didn’t take a pic because I was too busy scarfing my sandwich down. Ross is the owner and it feels like he is used to people asking for GF, vegetarian, vegan, etc, and he does a good job accommodating. I got a buff chick sandwich that was so good. If there wasn’t a line when I was done eating, I was going to buy another sandwich and eat it tomorrow

Samuel Mathai — Google review

A must stop in Nederland, CO — a stop along the Peak to Peak Bi-way. The made-to-order cannoli was the best I’ve ever eaten ( and I have family in Italy 🇮🇹). The pasta salad was super fresh and not drowning in dressing 😅. But the subs that walked out door, looked and smelled amazing.They are made to order by a quick & friendly crew. Next time I’ll get the Reuben regardless of the day’s weather. 👍🏽Grazie!

B & F Mountain Market offers a diverse range of Daves Killer Bread options as well as fresh additions like Wonder Bread, Natures Own, and Tastykake. Despite initial low expectations for a grocery store, B & F Mountain Market pleasantly surprised customers with its well-stocked shelves, cleanliness, and courteous staff. This positive experience makes it likely that customers would return to shop there again.

This store is a family owned, small town gem. Some of their prices are high, yes, but that’s because they don’t have the buying power as Kroger’s, Walmart, Safeway etc. They have a good selection of organic, gluten free and conventional foods, and a gigantic area for pet food and supplies.

Joy Elizabeth — Google review

Not sure why they think closing a grocery store at 6pm makes sense... Not many working people are going to shop there if you refuse to offer hours that work for them. I WANT to support this local store, but between the terrible hours and passive aggressive hand-written notes accusing everyone that shops there of stealing from them, it's like they are working as hard as possible to self-sabotage and destroy their own business! As others have mentioned, the selection is limited and the prices are high, but I'd be happy to pay that price for the convenience of a local store if they were open to accept my money. Come on, would it kill you to be open until 7 or 8pm? This is a classic example of being pennywise and pound foolish - no business thrifts its way to success.

Drew Sugarman — Google review

Overpriced and low quality items, especially the store brand goods and produce. Some products are loaded with MSG and I have a sensitivity to it and found out the hard way. Dairy is marked up really high, even higher than I pay at the coop for the same product, like Strauss yogurt.No backpack rule is extremely irritating, don’t plan to be able to drop by after a bus ride or other local errand because you can’t even just leave a backpack by the front and will be yelled at to get out of the store instead.

Liz Fedak — Google review

Local resident. Supported this store countless times this year alone; once-twice a week visits. Get screamed at by an employee just now to take my backpack out of the store. Yes, the same backpack I always wear when on my motorcycle. The same backpack I fill with my groceries each time I visit this store. But not this time. I ask the man if I may leave my backpack with a cashier: I'm on a motorcycle, I have nowhere safe to put it while I shop. Man tells me no.I have enjoyed bringing my money to this store to support small business. NEVER AGAIN. I will never give my support to this store ever again. To be a resident of this community, and a supporter of this small business, and yet to be treated this way is a disgrace.

There are people in management that are rude and have no place being in a management position.Often times I've found expired food on the shelves. I've shopped here for years and don't feel there is very much customer care here as there once may have been. Be sure and insist on your receipt, because they won't work much to insure your customer satisfaction without it.

It’s nice to have even a store like this in town because you can sometimes get something last minute if you need it (though you’ll pay a lot for it). But even though I live in town, I can’t walk here to shop because they don’t allow backpacks. If you won’t allow them, just make a space behind a register or something so people can carry their stuff. Ugh.

Amazing ice cream. The salted caramel oreo is not for the salt hater, but I didn't think it was overpowering. If weird at first, I got used to it and immensely enjoyed it. As well as the coconut cream pie, and the cozy little library they have feels like home. Love this little shop in this cute town of Nederland, giving me treats everytime I come

Lovely little book shop, lots of older books and a really eclectic collection overall. They have handcrafted candles and incense, and they even sell ice cream!They have tables outside and a dog water bowl as well.

Coffee is delicious, ice cream slaps, books are plentiful. I found a great Psychology book for the flight home. Cute shop. Prices are more than a thrift but it's worth it to support the business.

A quaint and eclectic shop that sells books, coffee, and ice cream. What more could a person want??? The owners (Chud and his lovely wife) are all around great people and interesting conversationalists. It was a pleasure to find this shop and to meet the owners. Attention guitar players: Chud has an incredible acoustic guitar that plays and sounds amazing. Check this place out when in Nederland!!!

This place is super cute! I was recommended the pistachio ice cream and it was amazing. They don’t have indoor seating, but have picnic tables and benches outside, so plan accordingly.

One of the finest dining experiences I've encountered is at The Dynamite Shack. Growing up in the southern region, their barbecue sandwich is absolutely phenomenal. Their breakfast taco is exceptional as well, and even their fries are noteworthy. During my trip, I frequented this place daily due to its outstanding quality. What sets them apart is their commitment to using local and organic ingredients, which adds a special touch to every dish. Furthermore, their menu adapts according to seasonal availability of local produce.

Hands down some of the best food I have ever eaten!I grew up in the south and their bbq sandwich is just WOW. The breakfast taco is amazing! Eve the fries they make are something to write home about!After we found this place we ate here every day of our trip that's how good it was!Everything is local and organic and really makes this place special! Their menu also changes depending on what they can get locally.Thank you guys for the amazing food and conversation! My only complaint is that I can't get more right now.

High-quality eats from two super cool dudes, Shaz and Trace. Menu changes monthly and the menu for May has the best hot chicken sandwich you’re going to find anywhere as well as smokin’ pulled pork. Everything we’ve tried is good and we’re telling our friends about this place because it is a hidden gem. They do breakfast and lunch and you can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. Even their lattes are bomb.Find them in Ned and accept that you’ve found your new favorite restaurant.

This food truck is out of this world! Zander & his dad have a real gem here! The burger we ordered was a bacon bourbon burger and I can’t wait to try have it again when we come back to vacation!

Awesome burgers and super tasty chili!My taste buds are still dancing with joy from the delightful combination of flavors and high quality ingredients!

Heather Williams — Google review

Delicious and creative menu. We tried the caramel bourbon bacon burger, and it was SO tasty! Sweet, savory, smoky, and cooked to perfection. The fries are really unique too, almost like a combo of a homemade potato chip and a fry. I'll definitely stop by the next time I see this truck!

Amazing tacos w Chicken, plum, pomegranate, jalapeños, etc. I couldn’t eat tortillas so they gave me extra lettuce to make wraps. Very good fries too. Don’t miss this place! Friendly crew too.
