I would say pretty amazing. Probably worth driving a bit out of your way. Two ladies who liked pickles were in. And they gave them 2 each. Friendly service. Krautburger is a treat, warm bread, with a mix of burger and onions. Soup is amazing . Definitely a drop.in of your in the area. Probably worth hoping off the highway for a quick lunch.

TLDR: Great little burger spot that serves excellent handmade stuffed breads. Try the honey mustard!
House turned restaurant. We have never heard of it but apparently its been on Diner’s, Drive-in’s, and Dives 3 times! Family owned business that serves simple yet delicious breads stuffed with meat, onion, cabbage, and Kraut. You can taste the love that the family has for their craft. You truly feel like a guest at someone’s home.
We got the original lauer-kraut burger, but they have a variety of different cheeses you can add on. My one gripe that I have is that the filling was a tad salty, but dont let that discourage you from trying this place out, it was fantastic! And dont forget the homemade honey mustard! I couldnt put it down. Highly highly recommend this little gem.

I think I’m about 20 years later to the party, but still happy. Looked up cheap eats nearby. Walked in. Very warm and informative greeting. Ate something yummy and took yummy things with me for later. Many long term customers coming in while I was there. You know it’s good. If I lived in Brighton it’s possible I would eat hear everyday!

I got a jack kraut which was great, it was so good I had to go back and get another one. The atmosphere was relaxed and quiet. The servers were all in a good mood happy to explain and always with a smile. The prices were very reasonable so much so that I got some bread pudding for desert. Absolutely recommend trying them.

If you come from a German heritage or exposure, this place beats all Krautburger joints on any block! Being raised in NoCO, I was a lucky girl when it came to enjoying this cuisine. Lauer Krauts stands the test of time and with an awesome story! It’s owned by people who love this dish and have not faltered one bit in its quality, flavor, or presentation. It’s incredibly tasty still after all these years. I no longer live in CO, but it is still “home,” and when I am home, I make a point to drive an hour out of my way to stop here. I didn’t need Guy Fieri to tell me this is the place for an awesome menu and authentic Krautburgers. They even still serve the old-school hot potato salad. Don’t crinkle up your lip at hearing ‘hot’ potato salad. You have to try this dish. The service is beyond friendly, and the facility is so clean that you can smell the Lysol settling in the restrooms. They make you feel like you are a local friend, just stopping by to say hi and grab a basket of goodness for lunch or dinner. Heck, my family will even eat them leftover and cold for breakfast. Although, any leftovers from here are a quick thing of the past in our house, like a twenty dollar bill on the ground- it doesnt exist because someone snatches it up too quickly for you to witness it. I am having them ship me a package as soon as I return to my current residence in another state. Thank you, Lauer Krauts, for making a quick trip home even more special.

Just moved here from Florida and was looking for something to fill my German roots. I had the kraut burger with Jack cheese and the German chocolate brownie for dessert! Everything was amazing and tasted fresh and home made! Everyone was pleasant and kind! I’ll definitely be coming back to try everything on the menu!

The Kraut burger here was hot and fresh. This is a small Cozy Restaurant with very friendly helpful staff. The food is made hot and fresh. Great prices here also.

Lauer Krauts has been on my bucket list for years now ever since I saw Guy Fieri’s Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives featuring this restaurant. Yes, I finally made it! The service was genuine and great with my party being checked on multiple times and even me being reminded to get my soda from the soda machine that I had forgot. As for the food, it was decent but it missed the mark for me. I ordered The Jack Lauer Kraut Burger and I was expecting so much more on the sauerkraut side of things. The bread was good and I had no complaints there, but the ground beef and cabbage seemed to overpower the insides of the kraut burger. Again, I was expecting so much more sauerkraut. I was expecting a little cheesiness or a tad bit of heat from the Jack cheese but that didn’t happen either. I wanted this to work so bad because I love sauerkraut but it just didn’t! On another note, the Broccoli Soup was amazing!!!!

I love this place! My grandma made kraut burgers, German noodles and fruit dessert breads (aka Dina Kuchen) and they are as close to Grandma’s as I’ve ever found! I recently got the plum Dina Kuchen and it was absolutely fantastic! If you love this kind of food, you’ll find none better! See you there!
