Crema's Take

“Everything here is made from scratch, from the homemade potato chips to the green chili, and regulars swear by the Reuben sandwich and savory biscuits and gravy that justify the small, easy-to-miss storefront. It's the kind of place that draws everyone—families, solo diners, laptop workers, and dogs—into a genuinely warm atmosphere where the servers actually care about making you feel welcome. Fair warning: the breakfast items are hit-or-miss depending on what you order, but when they nail it, it's worth the detour through Manitou Springs.”

What to expect

Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Dog friendly. Family friendly. Parking available.

There was nothing wrong with the food, but not what I expected based on such good reviews. The French toast was fairly thin and not as good as I make at home. The server was lovely but was the only one mid morning in tour season. The biggest turn off was the nastiest restaurant…

By chance we found this place,we're visiting from NY and I'm so glad we did. Everything homemade. From Potato chips to green chili...10/10

I treated myself to a solo lunch here and was blown away. The Reuben is a personal favorite of mine, and it was executed perfectly. Paired with a half order of savory biscuits and gravy, it made for an incredible meal. I’m already looking forward to my next visit!

Great food and people. It doesn’t look like much from the outside and signage is small but I assure you it’s worth finding. Highly recommend to anyone visiting the area on their way to Garden of The Gods.

Was passing through and stop by. Was one of the best experiences I had in a while. The atmosphere was warm and accepting. Was treated with a warm welcome with accommodating menus and beer. The soup was amazing 😋. The conversation was amazing. The beer was cold and will keep me…
