The Kitchen - Manitou Springs

After a morning we stopped at Pikes Peak in Manitou Springs for lunch. The restaurant is not nice, but the food was good. Both my husband and I ordered the fried chicken, and everything was delicious. We loved the baked beans especially. So delicious!

Very good food, homemade. We had breakfast and lunch, homemade cookies such as grandma and the buttermilk cake with blackberry was homemade and delicious. The children loved the hamburger and homemade pommes. Very recommended.

It was really good food. Simple menu, good service. 5 stars safe.

A very happy accident. An incentive of the current decision to visit Pike's Peak on Sunday of Labor Day weekend turned out not the best thought-out plan we knew was a possibility. You can't live in Colorado and don't consider these things, can you? The line of traffic to the North Pole (to the reference I have no idea where the gate is, as we have never visited. Shameful for a Colorado native, right?! So we turned around to find food in Manitou Springs. There was a parking lot on their damaged, closed main road, right in front of the kitchen. Fortuitous or Divine intervention, I don't know, but yay!!! My understanding of another diner is that it is a man and woman team. He cooks, she looks like a modern day Rosie the Riveter. Okay, my golden tongue fails me. The food was so good. I'm a huge cookie and Gravy fan. I hesitate to have some places because... well, just because. I tried it here!!! Hands down the best B

Everything here is homemade and absolutely delicious They have the best mashed potatoes and meatloaf and greens I have ever eaten! The buttermilk pie is to die for!
