      Love the variety in the menu -- from Benedicts and omelets to sweets and healthy selections; Southwest choices too. All are great tasting. Not as noisy as some places. Add great coffee and it's easy to see why it's a great place for breakfast. After flying into CO early in the morning, our hotel room wasn't ready so we looked up somewhere near by that would have breakfast, and we ended up here. It was great! We were seated without much of a wait, the food came out quick and was delicious! Our server was very good as well. Would definitely come back here
      Tasty food, clean place, good price, friendly personal. Breakfast with them and all was really good.
      Oh, and they bring a jug with hot water when you order hot tea. Which is good, because I always need more tea then usually serves in other places.

      Ok so the 1st time we came here was on purpose and the 2nd time was an accident! There will not be a 3rd! This morning my wife said to me let's go to breakfast and she picked the place. Confused at her choice I just went along with it because it was close and fast which we needed.

      We were immediately seated and placed our order not too long after for s busy Sunday. When the food arrived my wife was so confused as she remembers our last visit being much better! After listening to her describe it, I told her which place that was and reminded her of our last visit at Egg & I. Yup, we go out to breakfast too often but we definitely learned to stay away from this place!

      The food is not even worth describing! Just picture someone learning how to cook and not knowing how to season properly and making tons of mistakes. Nothing looks or tastes fresh in any way.

      The poor elderly couple next to us placed their order 10 minutes before us and got theirs 5 minutes after (1 plain waffle and 1 plain oatmeal). The confused look they gave us when we got our tons of veggie scramble and avocado toast with eggs and bacon (many more items than they ordered), made me feel guilty for eating in front of them since it was clear they ordered first. When theirs arrived the woman was upset because she asked for the waffle with no sugar and it had tons of sugar and the plain oatmeal looked perfect to fill the crack in the foundation of your house it was that thick and old. I felt bad for them as they complained and nothing was done.

      As for our breakfast, we never saw a server again after ordering. Someone else brought out our food and that was it. So we sat there drinks empty, not eating, waiting for a check.

      Finally I got up and stood in line to pay since the line was long and we could see our server to flag down from line for the check.

      Even if it were a free breakfast, I wouldn't go back!!

      From start to finish our service was exceptional! My husband and I initially went to Snooze AM Eatery but the wait time was over 40min...it was super loud and jammed packed in there. Their food is not worth a 40 min wait if you ask me. We googled another brunch spot and stumbled upon this place. We were seated immediately, we were served our food lightening FAST! Our waitress was super warm and friendly and now I wish I remembered her name to give her a shoutout. Our food was delicious. I could actually hear my husband talking to me when we were not stuffing our faces! Overall experience was terrific!!! We will be back!
      Oh and look at ALL that avocado !?!(see picture!)

      Average at best chorizo eggs were dry and could hardly taste the chorizo.

      The waffles were okay.

      I think Dennys is better

      We won't be going back

      Great breakfast! This place has lovey, homey vibe to it and the breakfast is always on point. The Hiker's Benedict is my favorite and the ranch potatoes are amazing! The Huevos Rancheros is also super yummy, again, get the ranch potatoes.

      Hiker's Benedict and delicious ranch potatoes!

      The Egg & I is pretty generic. You'll get your plain looking and boring meal which is nothing to rave about. Every time we eat here we get a stomach ache!!! My husband and I have tried so many things on the menu and we get sick from the food each time! Not sure what it is, this never happens at other breakfast places. This happened to us at their other locations as well. The staff is always friendly, the food comes out fast but I'll never go back to The Egg & I, so not worth it. There are other brunch places out there that are worth the money which serve amazing and exciting food that doesn't look or taste boring. Don't come here. I would not recommend it.
