Reviews for Little Engine Eatery in Buena Vista, CO
14 July 2022 - Very friendly staff. Bratwurst was great with a nice, soft bun. A little pricey at $7.50, IMO, but it supports a... good cause. Also, way better than the place a couple blocks away asking $12 for a brat, LOL. Read more
I am so happy that we just happened upon this amazing little place! We were passing through Buena Vista and the place we... typically go to had a very long line so we went to see what else we could find. This place was perfect! Little Engine Eatery isessentially a food truck, but an old train car instead. The menu is simple, but has high quality ingredients. My three kids andI all got the Chicago ?L? dogs, and all of us were really impressed. They were absolutely delicious!! There are two tables withumbrellas that give you a nice shady place to sit. After eating, my kids and I all agreed that we would now always choose thisplace over the one that had been our go to since I was a kid 30+ years ago. It wasn?t until we got home that I started readingmore about the mission of Little Engine Eatery. We were already impressed, but the fact that it is actually a 501c3 created togive kids with developmental disabilities work experience made it even better! If you have the time, I recommend watching theshort video on their website talking about how it started and their mission. What an amazing little gem!! Read more
A must try in BV! We visit from Virginia every year and always look forward to their hotdogs.
We stopped by on a snowy day in May and had a delicious meal! All their ingredients are locally sourced with the buns coming... from the local bakery and the organic beef brats, so good! And they were just so nice and provided Wonderful customer service! Read more
Where do I begin? The food is excellent! I got the German bratwurst, bag of chips, and my favorite IBC cream soda. The service... was professional and so friendly! Many food establishments will get similar reviews, but that?s where the Little Engine Eateryis different. They have a mission to employ and give opportunities to the precious lives of our society that many others forgetabout. They are a nonprofit that provide paid work experience for people with learning disabilities. It was born of the parentslove for their son who loves trains. If you are in BV, stop by and grab a bite to eat. It is WELL worth your time and money!!! Read more
Do visit them for some tasty hotdogs and you get to support a great cause while doing it. I liked the "Chicago L" the best.
This is the best food truck in Buena Vista! The service is friendly and fast and the hot dogs were gourmet and delicious! ... Would recommend to any one passing through BV wanting to eat some good food and support an amazing non-profit! Read more
