Bennies

This adorable restaurant is hidden inside the monument YMCA. Service was phenomenal as well as the food. I got a these beautiful pancakes with a side of fresh fruit. The portions were out of this world I had plenty left over to take home. I will definitely be returning to this hidden gem!

Bennie’s is a hidden gem! Don’t let the fact that it’s nestled amidst an urgent care and a YMCA fool you. We had a world class breakfast (for me it was the roasted chille Bennies—eggs Benedict masterfully done on a homemade biscuit!) and the service was exceptional. Everyone we encountered were warm and kind. They even took extra special care of us right at closing time and beyond. Superior food, superb staff, and exceptional service . 5-Stars are far too few. We will be back again, and again.

This restaurant is inside the Y/medical building.

It's a cafeteria. When we went for lunch the line was long. It means people want to eat here because it's good, but a little inconvenient for lunch break.

The people were friendly.

It was crowded and loud. I got there half hour early to ensure my friend could get back to work on time. Not quick enough for lunch break.

The food was healthy and delicious. Definitely recommend the food if you can go when it's not so busy.

Love Bennies and their staff! Excellent service.

Wonderful cafe! We had a salad and the breakfast. The breakfast come with two pieces of bread, but I had eaten one already before I took the pic. Friendly, fast, abs perfectly cooked and seasoned. ❤️

All in all, it was good. We got there at 7:45 as posted hours said they open at 7:30. They were not open. We sat and waited right outside and finally found out they weren't opening until 9. Wish they would've had a sign or told us sooner. We all had the Bennies. Two had overdone eggs and mine had one underdone and one overdone. Since they were so busy, and we were behind schedule, I didn't say anything. Everything tasted good and it's worth giving them another try. The employees were nice and friendly.

We catered out our wedding rehearsal brunch with Bennies. Danny was amazing to work with from response time to questions, guiding with amounts to order, even supplying ingredient lists for our guests with food allergies. We received numerous compliments on the food. Everything was really tasty. Thank you to the Bennies' staff!

Bad owners. Will not bring my business here based on principle.

This is the most underrated restaurant in all of the Colorado Springs/Monument area. They serve breakfast and lunch (and have a full coffee bar) and are located in the lobby of the Monument YMCA. Don’t let the location fool you as their space is bright, open, inviting and comfortable. I can vouch for the roasted chili Benedict (so flavorful and always cooked perfectly), the BLT (generous portion with thick bacon and served on the most wonderfully thick yet light bread that is made in house), the breakfast burrito (flavorful and hearty), and the turkey salami sandwich (also on their amazing bread with perfect proportions of meat and other delicious goodies). Also love their made in house pickles. Really, I can’t imagine anything from this gem being less than delicious. The food is fresh, thoughtfully paired, and always filling. Whoever picks their fruit is a genius as it’s always ripe and sweet. The staff is professional, hard working and friendly- from their management (Danny) to Jill of all Trades (Greta) to their baristas and runners (Tate and Chloe… really I wish I could name them all). Do yourself a favor and visit this restaurant so I can say, “I told you so!”

Wheelchair accessibility: Located in the first floor with handicap parking and automatic doors. Table spacing and doorways all wide.

A cute little place to grab breakfast. I only came here one time, but the service and the food was great. The inside does seem to fill up quickly and has limited seating. There is plenty of space in the parking lot to park your car. Would definitely come back.

Don’t let the location fool you. This little gem is located in the foyer of the YMCA, next to an ER. We almost didn’t go in …..so glad we did! Delicious, fresh, and healthy.

All the positive reviews are here for a reason: delicious food in an unassuming venue. I’ve never had such a delicious side of fruit with a solid meal. Perfectly sized portions
