“We came for a date night while visiting Estes Park and this place was amazing! I had the steak and it was truly the most tender steak I’ve ever had! The flavor was incredible. My bf had the portabella mushroom sandwich and he loved it! Great atmosphere and would definitely recommend it!!!“

“We visited yesterday. They were short staffed, only one person at the front taking orders (dine in and take out), serving and checking out! We sat for 10 minutes without water while waiting to place orders. She was very nice and apologized for the delay. Food was average for me (eggs Benedict, eggs were overcooked, not enough hollandaise), but spiced Chai was good! My friends' meals were good- ranging from burger to sandwiches, skillet, and chicken noodle soup. I am impressed that they made the fries from scratch!“

“I've been to Lonigans several times now on different trips to Estes Park and I am always impressed! The drinks and food are delicious, and the staff is welcoming! Lonigans has become a must, each trip...If you haven't tried it yet, I strongly recommend making it a stop. I personally love the burgers,, cosmopolitan, and margaritas!!“

“Charming historic hotel with food and drinks that don't disappoint. The menu is a bit small and didn't have any kid options last time I was there, but the view is lovely and the service is very kind and friendly. They are also very good to locals which I have always appreciated.“

“Lovely little local restaurant. Loved the food, prompt and friendly service, live music, and family friendly atmosphere. Quite a few options for vegetarians and an awesome collection of hot teas as well! I enjoyed the pot of longevity tea and the greens and grains bowl with the bread and butter and hubby had a burger with fries.Vegetarian options: Loved the greens and grain bowl with sweet potato, black beans, red quinoa on a bed of greens with a tasty sauce. Served with fresh bread and honey butter!“

“Absolutely delicious. The brisket had a deep smokey flavor and tasted almost like smoked bacon. The sandwich didn't need sauce. Fries were crispy, evenly dusted with cheese and seasoning. This may be the best flavor in Estes Park. I would order this again.“

“Excellent atmosphere, we stop in several times a year. Food is, very meh. From the hot breakfast bagel sandwiches that are mushy and falling apart to the tomato mozzarella on toast, they’re all pretty worthless and something you’d get in grade school honestly.Coffee drinks are run of the mill, some better than others but they get the job done and aren’t bad by any means; which is all I need to keep returning to feed the ducks and relax with a drink.“

“Cousin Pat's, fine dining in a casual setting. Surprisingly excellent quality. The mac and cheese is a must! Burgers are huge! Bring your appetite. Ground Angus beef, half pound patties. Very delicious! Anthony was an amazing server. Very attentive to not only our needs, but also our dogs. Patio is dog friendly. Highly recommend this place if you have furry friends with you. Thank you Anthony for making the experience that much better!“

“Absolutely phenomenal. I’m writing this review while I still sit at my table. That’s how amazing it is. From the craft cocktails made to perfection to the delectable dessert, this is a must do in Estes Park.Every bite was absolutely delicious. We will definitely be back.“

“I had my doubts when I was told that I have to go to this gas station and get a ?? burger, but Josh was right! One of the best burgers I have eaten! The fries and milk shakes are great too!The kitchen is very clean and the help is great! There are booths in the gas station for eating and a patio with a beautiful view! Go and try it! You won't regret it!“

“I was a bit sad when I got here and a menu item I saw online, was no longer on the menu. The menu had plenty of options so it was easy to choose another dish.The food was absolutely amazing! Best burger I’ve ever had! Had a side of ranch and it was amazing and flavorful as well. This is a must visit!“

“Right on the tourist strip and usually that is reason for locals to stay away. Their name used to be "The locals ...". A friend from out of town came here and enjoyed it and recommended it. We had good service and good food. Excellent burger, the lobster Mac&Cheese looked standard elbow noodles, but the flavor was really good. Seems like a small place with a full bar with a pretty extensive whiskey selection. Plenty of drink options. We enjoyed our first trip“

“The most amazing burger place. Huge burgers, made fresh and fries to die for. But that's just getting started, the nachos are fantastic. Onion rings like none you have tried, and deep fried pickle speeds. You will need a week to try it all.Better yet they can do it gluten free for most of the menu. The pastrami and the pulled pork are delicious melt in your mouth meats that will make you want seconds and thirds .Dietary restrictions: Gluten free buns and bread make most sandwiches a gluten free option.“

“My stay at Nikki's Resort was top notch! To start with, all of the staff were friendly and very helpful. My room was spotless, and so inviting that i almost didn't want to leave to go into town. And the Wapiti restaurant has relocated from downtown to being onsite at Nikki's, which made it nice for great dining right there.“

“My family and I were here for a visit and I’m so glad we stopped here. Waitress was very nice and consistently checked up on us to ensure we enjoyed our food— and we very much did. The food was given to us very fast and the quality was excellent. The salads were delicious and my drink was always refilled. I definitely recommend coming here.“

“The food was amazing. We stopped in for lunch after a hike in the park and we're not disappointed. We ordered the crab stuffed jalapeno poppers as an appetizer and they were phenomenal. Also ordered the Cubano and the Reuben they both had fresh soft bread and meat ingredients in the sandwiches were fresh made because they were moist and warm. The dinning room was spacious and modern. The bathrooms were clean and stocked. I wish I would have come here sooner. We plan on coming back and trying breakfast the coffee bar looked amazing and so did the breakfast drinks. Easy parking available and right outside the entrance to the national park.“

“Everything about this place is good, the service is so friendly, the food is delicious and big portions you will have leftovers. We ate here 2 times on our trip and it was great both times. We had nachos, spaghetti, brisket sandwich, chicken fried steak, and the pork green chili it was all awesome! We will be back anytime we come to Estes!“

“It is hard to describe in few words the experience we had here. The food was phenomenal and quick to appear. I recommend the filet paired with scallops!Thank you to McKenna, Aubrey, and Vicki for making a special night for my wife and I even more exceptional.We will be back. Don’t hesitate to go here given the opportunity!Parking: Very easy and convent to park. Feet from the restaurant so no long walk!“

“We went here to grab a bite after we found out that our favorite restaurant in Estes wasn't open. I had the fish and it was amazing, so were the sides. I ordered more of the couscous it was that good! Service was great, our waiter was hands on but not pushy, very helpful and answered all our questions. Definitely a place to eat if you visit Estes!“

“I got the Denver Scramble, it was pretty good, nothing to write home about. My girlfriend got the stuffed baked potato with vegetarian chili, she was expecting it to come with cheese and sour cream but it was just a baked potato covered in chili, wasn't very flavorful. The pie was pretty good.“

“We were first timers in Colorado and at The Post! Let me tell you what the food was great- but the service was absolutely OUTSTANDING! Dakota R. was our server and he absolutely blew it out of the water! Probably the best service we've ever had! He made us feel so welcomed and special! We will definitely be coming back from Louisiana /Florida! Thank you Dakota!!!“

“This restaurant is located in Estes Park, on the drive from Boulder to the Rocky Mountains.I had a hamburger for lunch. Accompanied by coleslaw and fries. I was surprised at how much potato there was. Koichi Rusuroichi was also easy to eat. The hamburger had a strong meat flavor and was delicious.The interior of the store is also decorated with old photos, giving you the feeling that it was once a mining area.“

“This is the bar where a scene in Dumb & Dumber was filmed! It's a beautiful bar with a great selection of cocktails and spirits and the perfect place for a nice cocktail in Estes Park. The ambiance is very warm & cozy and the drinks are excellent. I had an espresso martini which was delicious! A little pricey but I think it's worth it for the nice experience and a chance for a fun activity at the Stanley.“
