    Order the granola raspberry pancake and request to sit outside. Plenty of creative breakfast options.

    Raspberry Granola pancake. It was as big as a pizza! They were generous with the raspberries, the granola gave the pancake a hearty bite. The side of sausage was perfect to balance the sweetness. I had syrup too. Forget about the yogurt that comes with it, I'm supposed to put that on top on my pancake? No Thanks! So between the syrup, the sausage, and the dollop of butter, I might have cancelled out the healthiness of the Granola and raspberries. Does it matter? I was there to redeem myself from my non-existent and disappointing "dinner" from Applebees the night before.

    I don't review much but this place rocked! Very fast and friendly! Food was awesome and a nice portion. I hope next time it is just as good!

    This is the first time I ever ate here, and I liked it. I was worried about the portion size, because the first price is relatively cheap, but it the header says single, Also, it costs $3 for a combo, which includes eggs and meat. That is kind of weird to me, however, it turned out to be a good portion size to me(albeit, I was cutting weight the week before and my stomach may have shrunk). I got the stuffed french toast, not like normal stuffed french toast, either. It had egg and sausage instead of sweet stuff, but it was good, the only disappointing thing was the french toast was a bit soggy. All in all, I like the atmosphere and I'll come here for breakfast the days I can convince my gf to not go to village inn (she is obsessed with that place for some reason, I can't figure out why...)

    Skip this location. Not at all like the others. Food came out wrong and undercooked. Manger response? Send out replacement food that was burned beyond recognition. Completely black. He proudly sets in on the table like he's fixed everything. Really? So we ask for it to be comped so we can leave and get an edible breakfast elsewhere. Manager refuses. This is a terrible excuse for an otherwise good chain restaurant. Try the one a couple miles down Arapaho on Yosemite or over in Highlands Ranch.

    Ordered the biscuits with gravy and dark roast coffee. Normally I'm disappointed in "diner" coffee, but my coffee here was good. The biscuit was tasty, gravy met expectations. Eggs, bacon, and potatoes all well up to par. This place is worth checking out. I will definitely repeat...

    We were in this place years ago, and the staff treated us terribly, refusing to serve us. When we complained to the management and then the corporate management, they treated us even worse. We used to go in all the time, but we won't eat there again. There are many other alternatives for breakfast than this place.

    Good solid tasty food. Better executed than Denny's, at similar prices. Most plates are around $9 with a few dollar variation up or down depending on the dish. The Juevos rancheros are very tasty. And so is the Athena skillet if you want something a little less spicy, but still with unique bright flavors. The patio seating is nice when the weather cooperates.

    Things have gone downhill for this restaurant over the past year. We used to come here twice a month, and the food and service was consistently good. However, the last 4-5 times we've come here, the service has been subpar and the food has lost a little bit of its luster. I'm not sure why, some of the waitresses are still the same from a year ago, but it seems the newer ones are inattentive and mistake prone. The food also has gone down a notch in quality. What used to be a solid 4 stars is now at best 3, and many times worse. The taste has become bland, and the ingredients don't seem as fresh or flavorful. We might try it again sometime soon, but for the time being, we will try other places.

    Stopped in on a whim, while traveling, and it was convenient being right off the Interstate as I was passing through Centennial shortly after 6am. The staff was very friendly greeting me and taking my order, and the restaurant is very clean. I ordered the Santa Fe Huevos Rancheros, with the Green Chili and Pork rather than the salsa option, and let me say it is PHENOMENAL! The portion size was generous, presentation was nice, and the flavors are excellent! The Green Chili has just the right kick to wake me up, without being overwhelming, and enhances the other delicious Huevos Rancheros flavors. A great place to come for breakfast!! Thank you.

    This is a great spot for breakfast. I really like that you can mix and match your eggs Benedict. Game changer people.

    Pretty good eats. The kiddo requesting here for breakfast. She enjoyed it a lot especially when the server brought her extra whip cream in a bowl for her hot chocolate. No complaints with my breakfast. Cooked well and tasted good. Staff seemed nice. We were seated quickly and the server arrived in a timely manner to grab drink orders. Kid friendly. Not a bad kids menu selection. Similar to ihop. Not real expensive. Seemed like a great place for older folks to gather for breakfast as there were many older couples there. Quiet. Nice environment. Would take the family there again. 4 stars opposed to 5 just because I didn't feel it was a real elaborate variety of options in the menu, but I will say it's a good enough menu for this restaurant.

    DELICIOUS food! Our server was Miriam and she was very kind and courteous, suggesting her favorite dishes. The food came out piping hot and was by far the best meal I have had in awhile. If you are looking for a quick tasty breakfast or lunch in a nice environment, I would definitely recommend here! You've earned yourself a repeat customer.

    I have been here several times. It's always a nice place to meet for lunch or breakfast. The waffles are amazing and the coffee is great too! I always love the decor. I like how they have a section on the menu with favorites of the locals.

    Best food. Absolutely great service.. Mr. Chuncey Foreman is the best general manager I'll be coming back soon. Enjoyed the service while I was there with family out there in Colorado. I wish they had one close to where I live.. Clean restaurant clean bathrooms; Love the love the love the omelette.

    Our favorite neighborhood place for 8 years! Manager Chauncey is super friendly and the wait staff, Adrienne, Barb and Michelle are rock stars. We are always treated like family here and of course the food is fantastic.

    They always have my table ready and great me with good spirits. My fiancé and I have brunch here most Saturday's after our workout. The food is great and the prices are reasonable. We always have a good time with Chuncy and staff. Highly recommended.

    Neat little place in Centennial. Even though it is a chain, this one has been the best experience I have been compared to all! Service is fast and friendly. The food is super fresh and they have some awesome choices for coffee lovers. Our wait was only 5 minutes or so on a busy Saturday morning. I really enjoyed it here and will keep it on the radar for future breakfast places!

    I just tried going to eat here with my mom and they had the glass doors locked, even though their hours posted on their door clearly said they were open today until 2pm, and it's ONLY NOON!?!?! We could see all the waiters in there just looking at us like a deer in headlights as we were standing at their entrance knocking. They just ignored us and kept about whatever they were doing....there wasn't even a courtesy sign explaining if they were closed early or not nor did anyone that saw us come to the door to explain? VERY UNPROSSIONAL. Never going back, ever.

    Legit breakfast spot! We went there on a Saturday morning and there wasn't a wait which is always a plus since Snooze is across the street and all the chumps are there, waiting for an hour and that! Egg and I was booming though and our server was really friendly, quick with tips on the menu and most importantly, quick with the coffee refills. Can we talk about how they offer four different types of coffee? Hello, heaven! I ordered the vanilla nut at first and it was too sweet for me so I went to my tried and true bold coffee and it was delightful. I usually get savory breakfast but was in the mood for something sweet and their menu was off the hook with sweet and savory dishes and I ended up opting for the Waffle Eggspress with a big ole' Belgian Waffle, eggs, bacon and sausage. I destroyed that dish and it was enough to hold me over until early dinner, I will be back for sure!

    Consistently good. I usually call ahead for takeout veggie Benedict or breakfast burrito. Sunday's can have a long wait since it's so good. That's just the way it is. Dine in service is good with servers who are friendly.

    I like the Egg and I for breakfast, they have a few locations but this one happens to be just across the street from me. They have good space in the dining room and the patio has good shade and is below street level. I have always been happy with the food, the portion size is just right, not excessive like you tend to see these days. I also like the healthier and lighter side, the last time I came here I had a side of bacon and a surprisingly delicious, creamy smoothie. This is probably the best spot for breakfast in my neighborhood, There's no 45 minute wait and just basic tasty food.

    Our favorite breakfast place! I think the food here is as good, or even better, as other, much more trendy place, but without the extra hype and the long lines. Denver people know what I mean... We come here often and every time the service is nice and friendly (thank you, Marcy!) and the food is good. I love their Benedicts. They have some light lunch items like sandwiches and salads. I think the breakfast items are MUCH better. Also, this places closes after lunch. The dining room is pretty large and very bright. Lots of windows and though it doesn't feel very intimate you still have your privacy and it feels very nice and cosy. there's almost never a wait and I noticed they have a 'private' room for big groups. the kitchen is sort of open which I like. I always feel a little better knowing that the kitchen staff knows the customer can actually see them...

    This was a pretty yummy breakfast! Having never been to an Egg-and-I before, this is my one and only experience with the chain so I don't know if it was typical. All in all, the food was only okay compared with some of the other nearby breakfast places (Snooze, Toast). I ordered the veggie Benedict, but substituted the potatoes for a green salad in order to cut back on some calories. That was a mistake because the substitution was a little too hard for the waitstaff to handle. The person who brought the food was different from the one who took our orders. My meal came out without the salad, so I reminded the waiter before he went back to the kitchen. The other server returned to refresh our drinks and asked how the meal was; I reminded her about the missing salad too. I got the salad once I was a quarter of the way through the rest of my meal, but it had the wrong dressing on the side so I had to ask for the correct one. It took another two visits from the waitstaff to finally get the right dressing, but by that time I barely wanted the salad anymore. It would have been better to start the meal with the lighter salad and then move on to the heavier Benedict afterward. Speaking of the Benedict, it was very good! It came with a generous amount of fancy vegetables including mushrooms and asparagus. The Hollandaise was a little disappointing, though. It had separated and was looking a bit greasy on the plate, but the overall flavor was there. I ate everything and enjoyed it, but I will probably not try a Benedict here again. For that amount of calories, the meal has got to be amazing; this one was only okay.

    We arrived late in the day for breakfast/brunch and the service was prompt and courteous. Our server, Adrian, made it a very pleasant and relaxed experience. She joked around with us and was very attentive- taking special care to understand my husband's food allergies. He went with the red, white and blue waffle which was huge and covered in berries. I went with my standby of bacon and eggs that came with a side of ranch potatoes. They do not have a gluten free bread option here but they will sub something else in place of it such as fruit or veggies. The food was good and it is a great place for a quick bite.

    Anyone will tell you, I heart breakfast. So when brunch was mentioned to celebrate my mom's birthday, I couldn't help but reply with a "hell yes!". Here's the breakdown of another awesome experience :) Star 1= Because my parents had been here only one time before and were considered "new members" the waitress and manager of the restaurant gave them complimentary coupons [which were in sealed envelopes to be opened at your next visit with everything from a free meal, to 15% off!]. We were surprised to find $10 off in both envelopes, and honored both coupons! $20 off our bill...awesome! Star 2= I mentioned it was my mom's birthday and literally 2 minutes later, a steaming hot, freshly homemade blueberry muffin arrived...free of charge :) Star 3= Our waitress was bubbly, entertaining, fun and made our experience very enjoyable, as she was prompt and very helpful in suggesting dishes. Star 4= Food was outstanding. WOW! I ordered the Parisian Benedict [as I'm going through a bene phase...mmmm!] and loved it! a croissant, topped with ham, mushrooms, swiss cheese, hollandaise sauce and a sprinkle of green onions, made my meal to die for. the veggie fritatta and spinach omelet was quite tasty as well! mmmmmm mmmmmmmmmm good! :)

    Well, we intended to go to Snooze which is across the street. When we arrived and found out it was 40-50 min wait (we were on our way to the airport), there was no way to eat at Snooze. Lucky enough, Egg & I was right there. We walked in and got seated immediately. Our server was very good. Food was hot and delicious. I ordered the veggie benedict, excellent choice...What I liked the most was, I ordered hot tea and instead of bringing a cup of water and one bag of tea (like most places do), they served me a big silver pot of hot water and a plate of tea varieties :) Well done!

    This place SUCKS. And they DO NOT take reservations, regardless of what Yelp says. I called them several days in advance to make a reservation for Mother's Day because I figured it would be a zoo. The dingbat who took my call said that they do take reservations and tried to hang up before taking my name for ours. Anyway, we resolved it, she took my name, we were all set. We arrive at this restaurant on Mother's Day 1) after driving through a blizzard, 2) after struggling to find a parking space in the CHAOS that is their too-crowded, horribly designed parking lot and 3) with not only my entire family in tow, but our baby, who we had to pack and unpack from the car in crazy weather. And their front area was beyond crowded and total chaos for everyone. There is no real wait area and no order whatsoever to their system. The point I'm trying to make is that just getting us into the restaurant was not a small feat. I tell the hostess we have a reservation and she has no idea what I'm talking about. She brings the manager out and when I explained that we had a reservation, his first words were "Absolutely not". He was REALLY rude about it. He said they don't take reservations and he has no idea why I was told otherwise on the phone. And instead of trying to find a solution for us, he hemmed and hawed, not giving me a clear answer on wait time, saying it could be "anywhere between 20-40 minutes". Totally vague. He didn't do any of the things that a good manager should do, like find immediate seating for us or at least offer to comp part of our meals because of the inconvenience. So we left. We were disgusted. And as we were leaving, it turns out the people behind us were having the exact same problem! This place does NOT have it together, and is obviously run horribly. We took our chances driving through the snow to find another place that treats us like paying customers instead of like an inconvenience. This abomination of an establishment will not get one dime of our money. If you want a very stressful, very frustrating experience, by all means, go here!

    Went Sunday. Our server was Ian and he was great! Knew when we needed something, and knew when we didn't want to be bothered. Wish the manager lady would learn from him - she barged into our tables conversation to ask if everything was okay. We said yes, she proceeded to stand there, feel the coffee carafe, and tap on the table. We then told her how great our service was, and she completely ignored what we were saying (it was clear she was watching the hostess greet some new people who walked in). This manager woman who was awkwardly milling about and did not appear to be working - and actually scolded servers on the floor next to our table - is why this place received 4 stars. The food was also pretty good. Large portions.

    YUM! Really good food...just ate here for a week straight almost for breakfast or lunch! The servers are all really nice..Lindsey is really good and funny! I really like the pancake, fresh fruit, chicken and walnut sandwich, and that new fruity drink is good too. A few things I wish they had: a short stack of pancakes to order for a side and fresh squeezed OJ, other than that it's good food and good service.

    Egg and I has the best corned beef hash in the area. They dice it up fine and mix with the right mix of potatoes and peppers. Topped with a perfectly poached egg that oozes flavor over the hash and toasted sourdough bread to mop up the goodness and I've got the perfect breakfast.

    I like this local Denver chain. Checked out this location recently and found the place to be clean and welcoming. The staff is also very friendly. Food is dependable - had an omelet and toast. Menu's pretty comprehensive (from the sweet to the savory). Try their hazelnut coffee. You get a full pot and it's good!

  • Julia K.

    We came here for breakfast on the last day of my denver visit, and other than the pancake, my breakfast was such a disappointment. I ordered the croissant breakfast sandwich and it was bland and super oily. I ordered a small glass of orange juice and it was kid-size. But it was Odwalla, so I give them a plus for that.

  • Erin L.

    Family breakfast spot that made a wicked good spinach and artichoke eggs benedict with a lipsmacking tomato hollandaise sauce. Dad and bro had granola pancakes and basically licked the plates clean! Hubby had a yummy greek frittata that I had to stop myself from picking at for fear of being THAT girl who eats other people's food (not me!)! Would definitely come back as a regular when Snooze is too busy!

    Stopped in at this location for the first time this past weekend. I've been frequenting the Highlands Ranch and Parker locations for years. This one has a weird layout and seems a bit choppy, but I was thrilled with the service! Delicious breakfast. Glad to have one close to home.
