A Tiny Diner Next To The Slopes, The Little Diner Is A Worthy Hidden Gem In Colorado

When it comes to delicious food, a good rule of thumb is that the smaller and lower-key the restaurant, the better the food. For a sure-fire win in terms of delicious food, there is no beating any kind of downhome diner, which is exactly what this tiny restaurant - aptly named the Little Diner - serves every day:

Located in Vail, the Little Diner is just that: a quaint, counter-seat-and-booth establishment that is billed as "Vail’s Legendary Breakfast Spot."

While most diners are decked out in '50s chrome and decor, the Little Diner boasts a modern, minimalist ambiance, which makes the atmosphere as unique as the food itself.

Speaking of food, there is a whole lot to love about the Little Diner's gigantic breakfast and lunch menu, which has everything from Colorado favorites like breakfast burritos, Huevos Rancheros, and omelets...

...to pancakes, platters, and crepes...

...And all of your lunch favorites, including hot or cold sandwiches, cooked-to-order burgers, and Cinncinatti chili.
