Problem for me was I had only today left here so I forced my friend to split the blueberry pancakes and I also had the rustic Benedict, excellent! Service was great and got seated in 10 mins.

Kevin Rickert

Chai Latte was excellent, Chicken & French Toast was amazing. Must have breakfast while in Boulder. Be prepared to wait a bit, but so worth it.

Liz Bray

Order the half size if you’re not a lumberjack - their normal portion is huge!

Pei ???? Wen

Great vibes and fabulous brunch food . Their wall doodle features rock climbers and road bikers! :)

Monti Bray

Everything is amazing here. Try the California omelet scrambled style. To die for!

Neal Sorensen

Saddlebags! With this magical dish you can have meat INSIDE your pancakes with two eggs on top! If you are a fan of breakfast , roll out of bed and get to the Buff.

Paola Mckee

Huge portions , 99 cent mimosas , amazing dirty chai with soy milk . Get saddleback if you like sweet savory mix. This is the place for a hearty breakfast .

Allison Kasic

Get something smothered in green Chile (the best of which is probably the Ole skillet )

Pedro Sorrentino

When god wrote the hangover cure formula he said: you shall have saddlebags with bacon and maple syrup . It's on the bible. At least, on the awesome version of the book .

Ann Shek

Had the saddlebags with bacon . So good, but definitely split this with at least 2 people!!!

Bob Scholem

All six of us had a great breakfast each ordering a different egg skillet . The bloody merry and mimosa for $0.99 were a great addition

Nathalie De Clercq

Come, get a place in line , go shopping. Worth the 1 hour wait. Food is amazing. Bloody Mary is a must.

Kian Lavi

The huevos rancheros are phenomenal, and all of their teas and coffees are really good too

Krista Vogel

Locals told us this was the best breakfast in Boulder, and they were right!

On Man v Food, Adam Richman visits The Buff and chows down on their legendary saddlebags -- a secret recipe of pancakes with bits of bacon and sausage cooked into the batter.

Gregg Vincent

Had the Olé and it didn't disappoint. Great food, large amount, great price and staff .

Kaufman Ng

the ole skillet is tasty. Portions are a little big for me in general. Come hungry.

Shawn Hime

Get the saddle bag with bacon . Don't even look at the menu! Just look the server in the eye & say "Saddle bag with bacon "! Done & done.

Peter Gent

The French toast and waffles are maybe one of the best things I've put in my mouth.

Emily

Delicious food but be careful--when they ask you if you want maple syrup they mean REAL maple syrup and will charge you $2 more.

Bill Flinchbaugh

Pancakes , mimosas , all the other breakfast foods , Bloody Marys , as needed.

Mat

Carmel pecan quesadilla--damn good. Mom thought ole skillet was just ok but I really liked the Pacific Benedict . The lemon pecan pancake was pretty good but not killer.

Tyler Williams

Do it. Grab your friends, grab some drinks. Fuck it, grab your friends' drinks. They close early though...

Drew Frey

The Ole skillet is really the only choice and if you don't order pork green chile on it, you're an idiot.

Star Wang

Fruit plate is huge and filling. Great orange juice .

Jyll Saskin

Gluten-free heaven. Try the granola pancakes with almond butter and REAL maple syrup .

Jake B

Actually. ..you want the olé skillet with both green Chile and queso . Ask for both - it's awesome!

Micah Alcorn

Nahika is the happiest server ever. Ask for her if you want a bright start to your day!

Katie Childress

Great food. Wouldn't recommended The huevos rancheros though. Everything was awesome though!

Lindsay Koehler

The sandlebags are tasty! Sweet and savory in every bite - bacon in your pancakss. Yum. Also $.99 bloody marys and mimosas ain't too shabby ;)

Dave Owens

Saddlebags: what more is there to say? I like to have blueberries added to mine.

Claire Downey

Mochas are homemade and served in a giant mason jar . Must have!!!

Minerva Gallagher

The staff is great, I had the two step with an iced 3rd street chai . Everything is perfect!!!!

Hannah Alkadi

[crocodile dundee voice] What you’ve eaten before isn’t a pancake . THIS is a pancake .

Saddlebags (pancakes with bacon ), French Toast , and Tequila Sunrises

Amy Weiss

The restaurant moved across the street. Now at 2600 Canyon Blvd. In the old Original Pancake House Bldg.

Pedro Sorrentino

Try the Saddlebags with bacon . Absolutely great for a hangover when you have a .99c mimosa as the hair of the dog.

Grace Boyle

$0.99 bloody mary's and mimosas ! Key. Good hungover food. Also, they get you seated pretty fast even for a weekend busy brunch .

Mike Kauffman

Get the chimmi pollo with queso AND green chili

Patricia Smeltzer

The California omelet was incredible. Good coffee too! Seems like a popular place.

Mike Nolan

Best brunch in Colorado.
