Restaurants near Central City

“When you been on the trail, with some dust on your brim. Dismount that trusty steed or Subaru and saddle up to the Bar for a cocktail before supper or a hard night of gambling. This place looks like a Movie Set except it's real as the spurs on your feet. Let's ride!”

“I recently moved to the area. I saw the good reviews for Stella's and wanted to check it out. I've been here six times now, mostly wanting "burger" type meals. The burgers I've ordered have all been great and the size/amount of food for the money is second to none in todays food prices.\n\nThis "cafe" is linked to the Bonanza casino. I've only ever been here at the noon hour shortly after they open. The very first time I visited, there were two employees. All five other times there was only one. Needless to say, when it's just one employee who's doing the order inputting and cooking it's a bit slow. All six times I've visited around noon, there's never many patrons but it's obvious this cafe also is cooking for the employees of the Bonanza casino on break. That being said, the gal who's running the show is a rock star cooking and providing great customer service and food despite the casino not being able to keep an adequate staff???\n\nMy last visit I wanted to try a pizza. I came in at noon, when they open, and was told the pizza oven wouldn't be warm enough to cook a pizza for an hour or so. I ordered another great burger instead but wanted future patrons to know, don't come here for a group/personal pizza before 1:30. Despite some of my complaints they still get 5 stars for taste per dollar and customer service in the face of shortages.”

“It’s the second time me and my husband have been here and Kevin has gone above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect!!! The best customer service the kind you rarely experience now days !!!!!! Thank you Kevin”

“Food and drinks were fantastic. Everything is well thought out and smooth for the pallet! Chad was great and didn't burn the restaurant down with his metradee butter presentation! 5 stars and really reasonable prices all around. Fantastic date night atmosphere too!”

“Exceptional food and service. We drive up, from Highlands Ranch regularly to enjoy the food and Bob is always fun to visit with. His employees are also excellent; friendly and accommodating. *Got my first Mother's Day wish from Bob who was painting the outside of this fun to look at decor place.”

“This was some of the BEST bbq I have ever had! Sweet location and decor! Staff was attentive! Sauces were phenomenal! Will definitely be back!”

“The pizza was amazing. The crust on the pizza was so delicious it made you wanting more. I just learned about the honey and the crust yum! Plenty of sauce every bite and all the toppings you want. Will be back.”

“real good pizza and salad to go! Thanks!”

“They have lobster!!! They also have fantastic eggs Benedict and mimosas in large pint glasses!!”

“Omg DELICIOUS! Came down from Cheyenne to visit the Hot Springs and LOVED finding a hot dog joint, its one of my favorite things. Staff was friendly, food was out quick, and shoutout to the new guy on his first day! Will absolutely come down this way for Conrads again.”

“I was vacationing from Florida and traveled all over Colorado and tried 7 different coffee spots, and this one was my all time favorite! Their coffee is fresh roasted and the whipped cream is homemade (I normally hate whipped cream and I LOVED theirs!) Highly recommend going there, very cozy atmosphere and everyone was so nice!”

“We just had the best treat of delicious pizza delivered to our door!!! The pizza was delicious with very nice sauce, generous toppings and great crust. We are so grateful to the new owners for the really good pizza and the absolute joy of delivery in Black Hawk!!”

“OMG yall. The service 10/10 so kind. One of the ladies was solo when we came in and slammed. She acknowledged us and set expectations and kept checking in for the maybe 2 min we waited. So kind.

The food a million out of 10. We got the green chili sausage croissant was life changing. They heated it up and I was worried it would be soft or chewy and NOPE. It was warm and flakey and soft and crunchy. The seasoning on the outside was amazing. Literally can’t stop talking about it good. So good I walked back in to tell them.

My favorite part while standing in there you can see the mixers and sugar and you know the are making these things with love. We got a honey almond loaf for later I cannot wait to try. Please visit this shop!!!”

“We love that there is a local option for a stellar brewery in Gilpin County! We took two half growlers home and my husband (the wordsmith that he is) came up with the idea that you should call them “The Howler” Much ❤️ to Howlin Wind 😘”

“I discovered a wonderful Hmong restaurant here in Colorado! The friendly, family-run staff and cozy, traditional decor made me feel right at home. The red curry noodle soup (Khaub Poob) was absolutely delicious, just like my mom’s. This is a must-try for anyone looking for authentic Southeast Asian food. I'll definitely be stopping by on my next trip to the mountains.

Thank you Brenda and family!.. 💕”

“We enjoyed Clear Creek Cidery! Our waiter was very nice! Not sure of his name, but he greeted us when we walked in. He seated us and asked us how we were. He made sure we had everything we needed and even made sure my daughter was happy! He checked on us several times and made sure we were satisfied! The lady that was helping clean tables was very sweet as well! She was refilling drinks and even brought my daughter paper and crayons to draw with. Their on tap cider was very good! I tried the hard apple! My daughter’s chicken strip kids meal was very fresh! My husband loved the salmon appetizer! Everything is made fresh and homemade and you can really tell they value their business and customers! We loved this place and plan to go back when we visit Idaho Springs again!!”

“Yummy yummy yummy ice cream 🍦”

“Crossing the country back to California and lucky enough to find The Vintage Moose which is the kind of place you don’t stumble into very often anymore.

We stopped in back in October at an off hour with a mixed group with a young toddler and a handicapped mom in law and were met with genuine, effortless hospitality. Everyone was welcomed, everyone ate well, and no one felt rushed or out of place. The food was exactly what a mountain tavern should be: hearty, honest, and satisfying without trying too hard.

What really stands out is the vibe. It feels like real Colorado, super warm, unpretentious, and full of locals who seem truly rooted there. The proprietor made the experience even better, and we left already planning our return. A rare, authentic gem in Idaho Springs.”

“We stopped here on our cross country honeymoon, and decided on impulse to stop at the brewery. The food was so good, great portions, vibe was fun. The best part was our server Christian. He was such a delight and it truly made our experience. He was quick to make conversation with us and very interesting to talk to. He told us a bit about the area and gave us a few recommendations. If you get a chance to stop here definitely ask for Christian. You won’t regret it!”

“I was in Denver for training at work and didn’t want dinner in town I want to see the Mountains and get local. Great little place if you are in the area, good food and beer and take RT. 6 back into Golden it is a Beautiful drive.”

“This place was great , beer and food were fabulous and the atmosphere of the old bar and building very cool. Highly recommend as a place to visit.”

“Becca (bartendar)was wonderful very nice, attentive and knowledgeable. We had a very pleasant visit. Just seating at the bar is way too cramped too many seats there. People couldn't sit next to us because there wasn't enough room to get in to sit That really should be looked at.”
