We stopped in BV on a road trip and were excited to try this. I thought the gf bread would be amazing since it's a bakery. It was dry and bland. The veggie burger was outstanding though!!!Chips were ok. My gf ordered soup and was underwhelmed. She didn't eat her bread because it was so dry. It has great potential but was definitely a let down.

It's possible that there's another place that takes as much care of their customers, but I've not experienced it. The gluten free bread is great, and the customer service was what you would expect from a 5 star dining experience. Hence, the 5 Star rating. Thank you for being awesome!

Nice place with good quality food. Loved their tomato bisque. Serving size was slightly large, but overall pretty good.

Elk is a lean meat so you gotta make an elk burger right so it isn't dry. It was dry. And ketchup in packets? Coconut carrot soup was

We stopped in to Simple Eatery on our way back home from Buena Vista, and man I am happy we did. We left with full (and VERY satisfied) tummies! The service was great, and the atmosphere was welcoming and casual. I would recommend this place to everyone traveling to Buena Vista!!

The $16 half combo is such a steal for some good food. Came here twice for lunch and dinner. Definitely try the bison ravioli.

We did not eat, as none of us were hungry, which makes me sad, because the pastries and baked goods they had on display. It looked delicious. we did get drinks and took a break from looking around Buena Vista, the staff was so friendly and helpful and the drink prices were the most reasonable. We have found within 50 miles. You should definitely check this place out.

I liked this place way more before I went to the restroom. It shares space with a clothing store, and there’s a fair amount of people traffic back and forth. They store their breads on the shelves in the corridor on the way to the restrooms, and a half of these loaves aren’t covered with anything whatsoever. Some of them were also hanging precariously, so I got an impression that they don’t are much about the sanitary requirements. Maybe some people it’s fine, but I found it really gross because anyone can literally sneeze on these breads or give them a squeeze just for fun. Eek.Apart from that, it’s a cozy little place that shares space with a clothing , so it’s not very secluded.My husband liked his burger a lot, and my cookie was also not bad. Staff is nice but once they brought you food, they don’t check on you again, so you have to go for a coffee refill yourself if you want any.I was really glad that I decided against buying breads after all.

The chicken salad sandwich is superlative! Chunks of chicken dressed with just enough mayo, but not too much, and livened with nuts, golden raisins, red onion and celery for the perfect amount of crunch. All that between two slabs of rosemary cheddar bread, baked in house, of course! Try a side of the carrot soup. The sandwich is generously sized and now my new favorite menu item.(Previous review) Enjoyed an elk burger (on a freshly baked pretzel bun!), soup and a local draft beer. Prices are reasonable. Service was friendly and prompt.And don't forget to take a loaf of bread or a baked good with you. Gluten free options too!

Had a great sandwich and was served really fast. Had a discount through yelp and the cashier helped through the process of applying it. Being in a middle of a store is a little inconvenient when there’s people shopping around you.
