Eat inside of a retired Cold War Air Force plane. How can you not love this place?

I love this place. I am planning on going many times here with my Christian brothers, family, friends, and anyone I know. Family friendly, portion size is just the right amount, and the history and airplane culture is amazing. From the corny parts to history, this is a place for anyone, especially for plane enthusiasts! I love airplanes and you have to dine in the plane! Popular spot for veterans and even on duty service men and women! The respect that they have for our men and women who have and are fighting for their lives for our country is awesome! This restaurant is definitely what I would say, a true American restaurant! The owner was a very nice guy, his name is Steve. Ask to talk to him for any questions you have! You have to try their Bison Burger it was sooooo juicy and tasted really good! If you are just VISITING or PASSING THROUGH Colorado, you have to go here for tourist reasons! Bring a birthday party to this spot, and all the kids will have a blast!

Very cool spot to eat! Love it. Went her with the car club and we enjoyed it and friendly staff and cook came out and talked to us and he was from New Mexico which was awesome. So took some pics and chill and don’t mind coming back soon!

I stumbled upon this airplane themed restaurant after visiting the National Museum of WWII Aviation (nearby and that is a must-see!!) and was looking for a restaurant for dinner, and this was perfect!! I wasn’t disappointed! I’m very glad I did stumble across this restaurant after leaving the museum! Guests have their choice of being seated in the KC-97 or in the general dining area or bar area. I chose to sit in the plane. It does get chilly in there if it’s cooler out, so definitely dress for it. Everyone was dressed like pilots in pilot shirts or in flight suits. The staff was very friendly and the food was perfect and came out quickly!! I think my cocktail was called a touchdown or something like that. It was fantastic! I also ordered the grilled chicken Caesar salad! A great location for those who are into or love Aviation! There is plenty of free parking in the parking lot as well.

Awesome place!!! I have 2 boys in the Air Force and I love all the memorabilia and models!!!! Eating in the airplane was terribly hot and I really felt bad for the staff. Still 5 stars, they warned us several times about the heat before going up. I had the Greek Burger which was super good!!!

It’s worth a visit. Prices were okay. Food was also just okay but not worth the price. Great if you are a flight enthusiast or if you have children with you. There is a hanger eating area as well as eating on the plane attached to the building. The plane seating is loud and more than likely filled with families with kids. The staff was friendly and efficient. My suggestion for adults without kids is to go for a drink, check the place out and eat elsewhere.

Ok so it was pretty cool, server was amazing. Food was horrid, maybe I just order the wrong thing. I had the blue cheese salmon with sweet potato fries. The fries was really good but the salad was nothing spectacular, and the salmon tasted like paper. I took one bite and spit it out. The server was really good though. I chose this spot for dinner, and my husband wouldn’t let me hear the end of it because his food also sucked. He had the steak with a baked potato, let’s just say we went and got wings after. It was just cool for the experience but not for the food.

This was one of the coolest restaurants that we’ve been to in years. The concept is awesome & eating inside of a decommissioned military aircraft was definitely a unique experience.

This is a fun restaurant built next to and inside of an old Air Force refueling aircraft. The food is good, mainly sandwiches and burgers but all are good. There is rarely a wait for a table unless you want to eat inside the plane.
