Can't miss brunch spots in Manitou
Brunch—that sacred meal comprised only of the most revered elements of both breakfast and lunch. A meal designed around sleeping in. The perfect excuse to drink before noon. If Manitou Springs were a meal—we would be brunch. Instead, we’ve curated the best-of-the-best brunch spots around town—from award-winning huevos rancheros to seriously sinful biscuits and gravy. Grab your brunch crew and we’ll get the first round of mimosas!
Adam's Mountain Cafe
- Best Known For: Vegetarian and vegan options so delicious—even carnivores are singing their praises.
- What to Order: Huevos rancheros—smothered in vegan (you'd never know it) green chili. It's only been voted "Best in the Springs" seven years in a row.
- What to Drink: House-made chai tea or orange spice tea. We couldn't pick just one. #sorrynotsorry
Mo’s is well-loved by locals for their huge portions and great prices. A full order of biscuits and gravy is only $8.
Mo's Diner & Lounge
- Best Known For: The greatest biscuits and gravy you'll ever have.
- What to Order: The half order of their biscuits and gravy is plenty—but at just $1 more—we won't tell if you go for the full order.
- What to Drink: For brunchers 21+, treat yourself to an adult milkshake.
Know before you go: Mo's only accepts cash—but an ATM conveniently located in the diner means you'll never be stuck washing dishes.
Good Karma Cafe
- Best Known For: Specialty lattes like their White Raspberry and Almond Joy.
- What to Order: The Incline Bowl—especially if you've earned it (and even if you haven't). Two eggs, any style, on a bed of breakfast potatoes topped with tomato, Kalamata olives, feta cheese, and drizzled with basil olive oil.
- What to Drink: Maya Chai—choose sweet or spicy depending on your mood.
