Garden of the Gods Market and Cafe
A spacious downtown cafe blending a market, bakery, and restaurant atmosphere with rustic-chic decor and natural light. The menu features several labeled vegan and gluten-free options like roasted mushrooms entree and green chili fries, alongside standard American comfort foods; brunch can be busy with wait times up to 30 minutes on weekends. Service varies but is generally friendly and accommodating, though some guests found labeling inconsistent—prices are mid-range, with entrees like Benedict specials around $19.
