Could not eat in there. Strong smell of hot old used vegetables oil that hasn’t been changed. The oil stinks through the smal restaurant. Mostly fryed unhealthy food on menu. Fish deepfryed and then Frensh fries in the same vegetable oils.
Only black hot tea, no hot herbal tea’s offered.
Very expensive for a casino very smal resturant. Needs a remodel with fryers and ventilation.
Besides I recommend since most of it is fryed please switch to beef tallow that will add a rich savory flavor and it has a high smoke point. Better for high-heat frying. As well better for heart health. Beef tallow is stable and produces very crispy results with the food. Europe uses beef tallow. And the owner is the same owner who owns Chamonix as Branco Billy’s is Full House Resorts.
Now they have a pecan pie for sale. Very expensive. Never tasted anything like it. That deserves 5*
To bad they do not sell it in Colorado Springs. The best pecan pie ever. Hope the baker gets payed well.

Dec 2025 update: Chelci and a few other servers are great. Food has been OK. It seems to be a bit better as far as professionalism.

Review update June 2025: While the food here is usually pretty good, that means nothing when the wait staff is so ill trained that they are pushing the trash down with their hands in plain view of customers and not washing them after. It’s a gross impression to think food is being served/ handle after. Playing with your pigtails, putting on chapstick. Standing/ leaning on the food line waiting for food and picking at your hands fingers, also unacceptable – All things that should not be done in front of customers or at all in a restaurant environment especially when serving the food. My complaints with the Home Cafe consistently remain in regard to the lack of training and professional at this establishment. There are only a handful of waitstaff I’d trust here. But if this restaurant cannot implement professionalism front of house, it leaves wonder as to how back of house is operating as well. I spoke to the restaurant manager on duty, the casino floor manager was and referred to speak to another and will reach out and some point.

But really guys this is going from bad to worse quick.

Review update, 7 months after initial review:
Eaten here quite a few times since my initial review and the food quality is not consistent. Our waitress Kim was outstanding, she took great care of us and attentive to needs. The food was good overall on this visit. But again, has not been consistent over these past few months.

We had a 35 min wait this time. As we waited we could see into the kitchen where you could observe a very frustrated cook, that didn’t leave a good impression as we wait to be sat. But my biggest pet peeve? The manager you thought it was sanitary to keep the “checkbook/ order pad” tucked into the back of his pants. I would have brought it to his attention but quite frankly he’s the manager he should know that is not sanitary. I don’t care if your underwater have been washed, he’s handling that order pad and then handling/ delivering food to tables without washing his hands in between. It is all about perspective. I perceive this as unsanitary. He needs to wear a half apron like the rest of the staff and set a proper sanitary example. Regardless of how great Kim is, the unfortunate placing of the order pad by the manager gets a couple stars removed.

Initial Review (5 stars) Biscuits and gravy fan? Then you will love the biscuits and gravy here. They are the best I’ve had in a while. The biscuits are so soft they practically melt in your mouth. The gravy with the sausage is very well flavored.

The staff is awesome and accommodating.

We asked to make the eggs on our biscuits and gravy plate into an omelette as the entree was being split between 2 people. They were happy to accommodate.

The omelette was outstanding as well. Fluffy eggs filled with mushrooms, cheese and topped with tomato.

We also got a side of the delicious (with a bit of a kick) green chili to put on the omelette too.

Terrible experience – we’re never coming back!
We used to come here every time we visited Cripple Creek, but never again. I’ve never experienced such poor service and food!
We ordered two green chilis, one cup and one bowl. The waitress only brought the cup, and when we told her the bowl was missing, she said “oh, ok” and walked away. More than 10 minutes passed, and she still didn’t bring it.
We had also ordered a hamburger and a salad. She finally brought the bowl of chili along with the rest of the food, but by then my husband didn’t even want it anymore—it had been over 20 minutes since I got mine.
My salad had maybe a quarter cup of chicken (as you can see in the photo), and on top of. It, it was cold! The waitress never came by to check if everything was okay or if we needed refills. I had to get up and speak with the manager on duty, who offered to make another salad. I accepted, but it took so long that I eventually went back to the manager to tell her I didn’t want it anymore since my husband had already finished eating.
The waitress never apologized, and neither did the manager. We paid for my husband’s burger and my cup of chili and left.
We used to come here every time we visited Cripple Creek, but never again. I’ve never experienced such poor service!

Was worried with some of the low reviews but the food was amazing! I got pancakes for breakfast one day and wife got steak and eggs. Both were tasty and the steak was cooked to our liking. My wife doesn’t like pancakes but said that she would definitely order them on our next visit. 1000% would recommend if your in Cripple Creek.

We like coming here to eat and everyone is usually nice. But today the customer service was soooo awful!!!!
Our waitress seemed annoyed, didn’t let us finish ordering when she was taking our menus away, and walked away. She was mean and seemed like we were bothering her. The host at the front was kind of standoffish and mean. I like this place but they ruined our dinner. They seemed annoyed that we had our son with us. I’ve been to the cafe plenty of times but I don’t think I’ll be coming back. Management needs to get on everyone about their customer service.

This little cafe in Cripple Creek Colorado was a Exceptional choice for Lunch, Breakfast or Dinner! It is small but very clean with friendly staff and Great food! Breakfast of Country Fried Steak Hash Browns & Eggs was big in proportion and very very good & extremely well priced! Lunch was Burgers with Onion Rings and once again it was Delicious & priced very reasonable!

5/11/24: This is a small diner-like cafe. Our server Bailey had a horrific attitude. She assumed all we wanted were waters. She asked if we were ready to order, we started with an appetizer and before we could order our meal, she assumed that’s all we wanted and left to go put the order in. We went without water for a while (which was the only option she gave us). 2 out of our burgers in our group of 4 were WAY overdone, with unpleasant burnt char, and the Philly meat was burnt. We ordered a $10 appetizer of onion rings and got the pathetic basket you see in the pictures. Every one else that worked there seemed cheerful and helpful but we really got the short end of the stick tonight. We wanted to speak up when we were asked multiple times if things were okay but we were with friends and didn’t want to create a fuss, we also wanted to order more but was afraid lol hopefully this was just a bad night for her AND the kitchen, but with how AWFUL we were treated I won’t be back to find out. Ever.

The worst meal I had while I was in Cripple Creek for business. I ordered the steak medium/rare but I was served very rare. The steak had no flavor and I had to add lots of salt and pepper. Fries were good, as were the asparagus.
The chicken noodle soup was even worse. Just plain water with pieces of chicken/noodle & veggies thrown in. This was definitely no broth. Once again I had to use salt & pepper to get somewhat of a flavor.
Super friendly service though!

Home cafe inside of the Bronco Billy’s Casino. This place was hoppin’! Great brunch spot. Service was friendly and fast. Food was really tasty and well served, I had leftovers to take home with me. Definitely and older crowd, but nothing wrong with that.

I’ve eaten here many times and have never been wowed, but my last visit was a real treat. I wanted something different that I hadn’t ordered before, so I ordered the turkey bacon avocado sandwich. The sourdough bread was toasted to perfection with ample amounts of turkey and avocado and the bacon fit right in. It’s not often that I find a sandwich or burger that impresses me, but this sandwich did and I’ll be back for another. The staff was friendly and attentive and based on the food that was carried by our table, it seems like the quality has improved greatly over the last year or so.
