Stopped in and asked if they have coffee to-go and the sweet woman at the front desk handed me a cup on the house for my drive back home. 🥰

Was passing on through, no real destination in mind taking a long vacation through the wilderness of the Rockies. Arrived in Walden, and decided to grab a bite to eat. Best choice ive made, I ordered the Rib-eye, with Toni, who was an amazing server. My steak was cooked to perfection, I lived in Texas for a while and have grown to understand the value of good smoked and grilled meats. While im more accustomed to juicy, buttery, and extravagantly season steaks... There is a perfection to this steak, that comes with experience and practice, a powerful smoky flavor, with the richness of the seasonings. The country fried steak is also a mouth watering blend of spice and richness creating that flavor you crave over and over. In short, I've been to alot of restaurants in many towns and cities across America, and Walden has easily made my top 3.

River Rock Cafe in the little town of Walden, CO is a rare find. Wonderful food with such pleasant service in very comfortable atmosphere.

We had the best burgers and I really enjoyed the sweet potato fries and my husband's favorite was the onion rings. We will definitely be back!!

Stop my beating heart! The CUTEST cafe inside an adorable, log cabin lodge! Our server (I don’t remember her name😢) was so fantastic with menu help and knowledge of the local area. She told us where the town moose hangs out, confirmed that we DID INDEED see pelicans and gave us the best hospitality!
The food was delicious! I had the salad with grilled chicken and it was ENORMOUS! Like a serving platter of salad with 2 perfectly cooked chicken breasts on it. My husband had a burger and salad and same thing, 10 gold stars

Food was great. Better than expected. The salad was huge! Very friendly and kind staff. Very cool decor. Definitely a hidden gem in Walden.

Top-notch burgers, great little restaurant and hotel. Great beers on tap, super- friendly staff, what more can you ask for?
Normally, I've enjoyed every visit here. This visit reflected long delay to take order, get drinks, be greeted, ultimately requiring order to go experience as they would not delay making the order or cancel it to allow a return visit after the parade. Kindness returns more of the same. I left saying, obviously, my error going to the River Rock Cafe an hour before parade starts.

Visited on a Saturday night in July, wasn't too busy. Chicken fried steak wasn't bad, I've had worse. The regular steak tasted the same as the cheeseburger. They must using the same seasoning on both... Gluten free buns available for hamburgers. Mixed vegetables likely microwaved. Saturday has a ribeye special for like $40.

Good food. Big portions. Nice staff.

We loved this place. The food was delicious (we got burgers) and reasonably priced and the atmosphere was perfect. What a find!

I didn't have too high expectations in a small town but this was better than expected. I'm a vegetarian so was excited to see multiple options, and it's typical American food but fresh and well prepared with attention to detail (e.g. toasted bun). Nice stop to break up a long drive! Affordable prices too.
Staff was friendly
