38 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Estes Park

“Great food! Our waiters name was Surendra. He was very friendly and patient...couldn't ask for more.“

“Best burger I’ve had in a long time! Fast friendly service.“

“Large menu, with plenty of vegetarian options for both breakfast and lunch. \nIt took a little while for the food to arrive (subsequently, my husband's french fries were lukewarm), but the place was packed midday on a Thursday. \nThe portions were large, and the food was very good. The red pepper soup is the best I have ever had! \nIt was a little too windy to sit outside, but the views from the patio and window were amazing. (Does Estes Park have any views that aren't amazing?!)\nWould recommend.“

“I have a new favorite BBQ place! The ribs were fork tender, did not need a knife at all. Green beans, corn muffin, and baked beans were amazing, great portions. We will definitely come back next time we're in Denver!😃“

“Wonderful atmosphere wonderful staff and great food! Baran our server was amazing!“

“After eating at soooo many high-priced restaurants around Estes Park, and pretty much loving every place we visited, but trying to eat at as many as possible before returning home, we hit this place the NIGHT before we left. Mostly because it was the only place still open and very close to where we were staying at Valhalla Resort. WHAT A HUGE MISTAKE!!! WE SHOULD HAVE BEEN EATING HERE ALL ALONG!!! The Elk Burgers melted in our mouths, the onion rings and mushrooms were spot on and plentiful, and the late-night service was polite and speedy!! Don't waste too much money eating at all the other places. Our only regret was not trying these guys first, as I doubt I would have eaten ANYWHERE else after dining here!! KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!!“

“Casual atmosphere, friendly and efficient staff, quick seating (even with a line), and WONDERFUL food!“

“Rustic environment with live music - fun atmosphere. Alex (waiter) was exceptional, attentive, friendly, personable and made excellent recommendations. Old fashioned were delightful, we had trout and bison meatballs and chocolate chip cheesecake- we cleaned our plates! 😋 We will go back!“

“Amazing‼️🤩 GRILLED CHICKEN SALAD👀🙌 We had a long day hiking and wanted to pick up supper to carry back to our cabin. This was hands down the best grilled chicken salad I’ve ever had in my #56 years!💯 It was so fresh-avocado, corn, beans, tomatoes, cilantro, cheese, onions and crunchy tortilla strips with ranch dressing 😋“

“We have come here annually for a few years, the wine is delicious!
We loved our visit this time- there is new ownership, a super nice guy, Albert. He has made terrific changes. It is well updated: they now offer charcuterie, cocktails and desserts.
We would now recommend this to anyone!
The bourbon aged red wine is perfection!
Thanks albert!“

“Mountain Home Cafe is my favorite for breakfast and lunch - always with great service - in Estes Park for many years. Fresh fruit and vegetables, and fresh hamburger, too, are served here. Biscuits and gravy is a crowd pleaser along with Alaska baked oatmeal, waffles, Swedish rollups, country fried steak, corn beef hash, and an assortment of breakfast combinations and skillet breakfasts. Not to mention Eggs Benedict :::: including California Benedict with avocado, and Mexican Benedict.“

“Food is insane! Filet cuts with a fork and there’s no better drinks in town! I am definitely a al fresco girl so would like a better set up for outdoor dining but other than that 5🌟’s!“

“Amazing food, atmosphere and very attentive waiter. We had Amir as our waiter and he frequently checked on us. We sat outside and the ambiance was so peaceful. The food was fantastic and quick. We ordered the Colorado brisket nachos and RMO and never had anything better. The paradise punch and Old Fashioned hit the spot with our all day mountain adventures. We even met the owner Mr. Nelson. You have got to stop at this little piece of paradise. I promise you won’t be disappointed. A million stars is what we give Wapiti. Keep up the phenomenal work. Can’t wait to come back.“

“Our experience at the Elkins Tasting Room with Marina was hands down my favorite part of our trip to Estes. The store was beautiful, with a large variety of different sauces and preserves made from their own whisky. Everything we tried, from their Honey Mustard Sauce and Peach Bourbon jam to their Sweet Tea and Lemonade Vodkas (we also tried the apple, fire, and honey whiskys! 12/10 recommend) were amazing! I have ever never considered myself a whisky person, and honestly I'm not much of a vodka girl most days, but I fell in LOVE with Elkins whisky and their vodka instantly and I'm headed home with nearly a case of product.
Marina was so sweet and so knowledgeable about the products and where the ingredients are sourced from (all in Colorado!) and made it such a warm and welcoming environment!
If you're in Estes and you're not stopping by, you're messing up!“

“I lived down the street and ate here as often as I could. Best place to eat with everyday prices in Estes!“

“Amazing beer, dog friendly, and supports live local music!“

“Last visit to Estes Park was 6 years ago and Antonio's was recomend after a hike to Flat Top Mountain..would travel back from central Texas just for a slice.“

“Great local microbrewery, built into an old service station. Cool local vibe, great beers and friendly staff.“

“This is a best restaurant in Estes park . I always there after my hiking on Friday . Every thing I have ordered was so delicious. Make me think about back home to Thailand .“

“Was there over the weekend. Great food and amazing staff, especially the manager on duty Sunday morning. Friendly, and the bacon bloody is to die for!“

“My first review of… anything, not to do so would be an insult to a truly delightful staff And experience! Staff: not a single staff member lacking a smile, not the standard painted on type, genuine gracious smiles. Food: I had simple, she has slightly more complex, both simply delightful. The difference is in the details for us. Syrup served in a decanter, not a 1 oz packet, butter packets in the dish were plentiful, pineapple mimosa served DIY as a bottle and simply the best seasoned pineapple sauce I have ever had. All others from this day forward will be judged against that one! Menu: An event in itself trying to narrow down what is getting ordered, this completely covers the full range of wishes! Sunday Estes breakfast is a simple but special event for us, we now have a new welcoming favorite place to go! We made reservations for the Thanksgiving Brunch the moment we got home from breakfast. Thank You for the smiles!“

“The food is delicious. You get more than you can eat. One guy sitting across from us said it was the best chicken fried steak he had ever had. I ordered blueberry pancake. More blueberries than pancake. The last time I had a pancake like that was in Maine!! The owner is nice to her employees. We come here every time we are in town.“

“We were skeptical because of recent reviews, but they are way off. Food came out hot and delicious. Drinks from Zac at the bar were not watered down like other establishments we visited here in Estes. They have a new manager who took the time to introduce herself and let us know she was there if we needed anything. Our server was Jessica, and She was very attentive. Our steaks were prepareda perfect med rare. Thank you, Nicky's for a great evening.“

“The food is absolutely fantastic! The staff is very friendly and courteous, and we can't wait to go back!“

“Our current favorite restaurant! We live on the front range and visit multiple times per month. Great food & service at an affordable price.“

“This place is cute and quaint, with a great slice of pizza for the price— value you can't beat. A full pie is a short wait, and they have plenty of slices to order by-the-slice too. The seating area is next to a lovely little local shop: casual, family-friendly log cabin vibes. I'm not sure what others are expecting, or why they are disappointed. This was the perfect midday pitstop lunch. Worth a visit next time you're in Estes!“

“They have some of the best salsa and queso I’ve had in Colorado. Everything we ate was delicious. Highly recommend!“

“We had a reservation here for Valentine's Day. They were short staffed with no host so after waiting forever in line to be seated we bailed and sat at the bar. The bartender, Jonas was great even though he had been hung out to dry by management. Only 2 other servers were working and anyone who sat at a table didn't get served. Food was really good and we enjoyed our evening but it's unfortunate that on such a busy night, no one stepped in to help the poor employees that did show up“

“Great food, great bartender, just a fun chill environment. I had the lobster Mac and cheese and it was amazing!! Highly recommend!“

“We visit whenever we make it to Estes. The staff are AMAZING! The burgers are good. The day we went it was busy but an amazing staff member was working through the busy line with a tablet to reduce wait time. My 7 year old got a shake and spilled it 5 minutes in. They remade the shake free of charge which was entirely unexpected and beyond appreciated. We will always go back.“

“great place to eat new owners are fantastic. they did a great job revamping the place. we drive an hour into town just to eat here. the pies are 🤌. also the new jalapeño poppers burger is fantastic as well. we get taken care of very well when we come up 10/10 recommend.“

“I don’t normally write reviews but I wanted to make sure I let everyone know how much we enjoyed our dinner and how one of the employees went out of their way to make sure we made it home safely from Twin Owls. We got a Lyft to dinner so we could celebrate our anniversary and not worry about driving home after have a glass of champagne. Dinner was outstanding. The service was excellent. At the end of the evening we waited on Uber and Lyft to send a driver for over 30 minutes and kept getting a message that there were not any drivers available. It was 10 pm and 3 miles from our Airbnb so walking was out of the question. We asked the hostess if this had happened before and what she recommended doing and we were told it happens on occasion and one of the employees would be happy to get us home. I didn’t catch his name, but the gentleman that drove us was from Ukraine, extremely friendly and got us home safely. We gave him what cash we had on us to thank him for his help.“

“My brother and I stopped in last weekend to see if they allowed dogs on the patio (they do), but the patio had just closed for the season for service. Laura, the hostess, suggested that we could get takeout and eat outside if we wanted, and as it was a gorgeous, not-too-cold day, we took her up on it. She brought out our food and drinks just as we were getting up to pick them up ourselves, and she checked back on us a couple of times. WAYYYYYY beyond the call of her duty, and she was as nice as can be. AND she brought treats for the doggo! Oh, and my brother's chicken pot pie lunch special and my veggie pizza were both absolutely delicious! Highly recommend Poppy's -- ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“We had a great meal at The Grubsteak today. Great service, good portions and delicious food!“

“Great place to eat in Estes Park! This adorable family-owned and operated authentic restaurant was exactly what we were looking for. Quick, healthy, delicious. Waiter was such a sweetheart and it felt good knowing we were supporting a family business in such a touristy location. Highly recommend!“

“Delicious portobello fajita option!! Very good!!! Outdoor dining that is pet friendly too.“

“I always enjoy eating at the Stanley when I visit Colorado. This year we were seated in the bar area which was a bit noisy. Food was excellent as usual, selection was wonderful and service was great. Looking forward to seeing the Stanley after construction is completed. It is a great place to visit and enjoy a wonderful meal.“
