Grubbery by Wystones

I’ve been here twice for brunch because it’s close to me and close to the highway so it’s convenient to eat here really quick and then go where we need to go! The first time was when I had family in town and we left a little later than we wanted to go hiking. So we wanted to stop somewhere quick and easy that was reasonably priced and found this place.
That time, I’m not really sure what I got. So I guess it didn’t stand out as much as I would have liked. I wanted to get the crème brûlée french toast but I also wanted to be full so I opted for something with some protein. I think I just got the classic 2 egg breakfast (because I’m boring). My boyfriend got the chicken fried steak which I know he liked. Not even sure what my cousin got even though I know I tried it. I did get a bloody mary. That was delicious!
Service was quick which is what I expected because no one was there.
The reason for the 3 stars is because the second time I went there, we stood around for a while to wait for a table even though there wasn’t anyone there. A server finally seated us and the table was a little dirty still. This time I got the french toast. It was really good but not worth the price to me. Service was a little slower this time and they kept forgetting to bring out utensils for us so we kept having to ask for it.
As far as this place goes, we may or may not be back. They got 3 stars because it wasn’t memorable enough for 5 and it wasn’t completely horrible for me to give it anything lower. Something to try if you’re out of places to try because I haven’t been anywhere else (yet) with crème brûlée french toast!

Drove across town, no one there and phone invalid at 9:30 am on a Friday morning… I guess they don’t want business. Wanted to save others a trip

Went here with a large group and we had a reservation, so they were expecting us. It was a Wednesday afternoon, definitely not during peak hours. It took 20 min for our group to even get water. I waited tables for 12+ years… having water glasses already set out for large groups seems like basic server knowledge. We also had to ask for silverware-​another necessity you should expect to have at your table. Food was meh, and nobody in our party seemed impressed. Will definitely not be returning.

The fried chicken was flavorful, in the waffles were really good. We also had the shrimp and grits which were cheesy grits with shrimp. That was a very tasty entrée as well. The service was good and I would definitely be revisit this establishment again in the near future.

We’ve tried this place a few times and unfortunately it has been below average each time. When we ordered the eggs Benedict, the egg was practically hard boiled. The chicken and waffles were not amazing either– the chicken was very dry. Their vegetables that came with the fried fish were completely unseasoned.
They gave us a coupon for a free meal when they got our order wrong but… I honestly don’t think we’ll use it.

Went there Friday night for an event and the food was pretty good. So, We decided to go for Sunday brunch and get the chicken and waffles. They were edible but nothing to boast about. Still diligently still looking for «the best» chicken and waffles in Denver.
The place was empty so no waiting for service.

Was here for work and staying at the hotel not too far from here. Didn’t have a car so was able to walk to here. They had some TVs there so was able to watch the NFL draft and the NBA playoffs at the same time. The service was good and friendly.
The food though was something else. I got the «chili» and was a mistake. It was over salted and the combination of ingredients was no appetizing at all. Also ordered the steak medium rare. It came well done and with half the steak being a big fat piece.
I travel to Denver often for work but I won’t be coming back here. I gave it 2 stars because the service was good but the food I did not enjoy much. Maybe I got unlucky with what I ordered but be forewarned from my experience.

Delicious drinks! Great service by Melly! Fun and relaxing atmosphere, Love this place! Whoop!

Grubbery? More like flubbery !
Three strikes and you’re out baby. Messed up my omelet twice — once with wrong ingredients second time by not cooking it.
Waffle and chicken? Cold waffle and overly hot wings. Seems like you don’t know how to cook things in proper order
Other items clearly had beer under the heat lamps too long … Ya Know because the cheese on top of the omelet was browned.
If not for our waiter it would’ve been a complete bust. The wait stuff was very good.
Sorry Grubbery but get your act together ! You are the weakest link. Goodbye.

Let me get right to the point, overall I had a good experience here and would come back. The reviews from you fellow Unilocalers was either the service was horrible and I’ll never come back or was fantastic. The two of us tried to have the different egg Benedict dishes, and they were both good. The price was eight to $ 10 and the potatoes that came with mine were seasoned well and didn’t need any sort of condiment. Our server was Jeremy and he was attentive and kept our coffee full and hot. This was about 9 AM on a Sunday morning and the restaurant was not very busy

We all make mistakes. Let me help you avoid making one: don’t go here.
I dismissed the other reviews complaining about the service as something that had hopefully been fixed, but after eating here today it’s still clearly an issue, and worse, one that management doesn’t appear to care to fix. The wait for everything (water, drink order, drinks, food order, check) was the worst I’ve experienced in years (on a Sunday during brunch when they claim to be a brunch place no less). It was so bad in fact that several tables around us just left because they’d been there so long without being helped. A table behind us left $ 5 for their drinks after their food order took 40+ minutes (don’t blame them).
Us specifically? There was a long wait for water (a guy in chef’s clothes helped bring them out, what?). Waited another 10 minutes before someone came by for a drink order. We asked to put in our food order as well at that time to avoid another long wait, and waited a good 30 – 45 minutes for the food and 20 minutes for the drinks. There was no hostess seating people, there were 2 – 3 servers but only 1 looked like she was doing anything (and she spent most of the time half-​jogging around the place, looking super frustrated, and occasionally going into the back and immediately yelling at someone).
The food? Meh. I asked whether the Chicken Fried Steak or the Chicken and Waffles was better, and was tricked into the Waffles. I was served a single waffle that could have come from a do-​it-​yourself hotel buffet and the 3 pieces from a KFC bucket that I would choose last to eat if I had a choice. All this for just $ 12!
The woman at the bar was the only one who kept her cool the whole time, seemed to know what she was doing, and did a decent job of providing service while apologizing the whole time and trying to keep everything in the whole place from blowing up.
I won’t be back here ever again, and unless you’re the only table there or they have 10+ servers working, do yourself a favor and go somewhere else.

I’m writing this at the beginning of my third visit. The first time finding this place was a treat. The second time, I brought my family. This time, it just seemed right!
The portions are enough to leave a hungry guy like me satisfied. The atmosphere is relaxed. The food is a step above your average diner, and it’s very clean.
Also, they have an awesome beer selection!
Overall this is a great place to go if you want a cool little diner without the wait of places like Snooze or Jelly.

Went there on the strength of the Unilocal pics and ordered the country fried steak dreaming about those recommended hash browns only be told that they were out after I ordered. Asked if it came with biscuit or toast, and it doesn’t so was told an English muffin would be added, but it never came. Waitress was nice. Don’t get what the hype is about.

Zero Stars: only 1 waitress when we got there and it got fairly busy. We waited over an hour for an easy breakfast order and we finally walked out. During that hour we only got 1 cup of coffee even though we ask for a refill several times. We were nice realizing they only had 1 waitress but our patience ran out and we walked out because 1 of 6 meals came out and it was extremely cold. No excuse for this.
If you are thinking of checking this place out for breakfast skip it!!!

Well the atmosphere is great and that’s about it. I had the buffet and e
verything was cold old and hard wow. I tried

We came here for Sunday brunch… which is a mediocre buffet at an astonishing $ 20 per person. And no you are not allowed to order off the regular menu. I’m going to lead off with that.
I was looking for a nice breakfast place to take my Nana and brother. Someplace nice, near her retirement home. The Grubbery pops up on Unilocal!Good reviews, the pictures look fantastic, the name even sounds cool. Jackpot, it’s our lucky day!
I call ahead since it is prime brunch hour on Sunday… around 10:30am. I ask if we need to make reservations, and the hostess giggles and says that won’t be necessary. Hmmmmm weird. I’ve never heard of a good Sunday brunch that isn’t packed to the gills, but OK. Also — no mention that this is a buffet, no regular menu.
We show up, the place is about 30% full. WEIRD. And not a good sign. I ask about menus and the waitress tells me it is buffet only on Sundays. At this point, I normally would have left, because buffets are generally the worst things in the universe, but I had my Nana with me and I wasn’t about to drag her all over town looking for a decent brunch place.
To sum it up… there’s an omelette station, a pasta station, a carved meat station, and about 10 – 15 hot items.
EVERYTHING was mediocre… like just barely above hotel free continental breakfast status. I’m actually surprised there wasn’t a DIY waffle station. The salmon, chicken, and veggies were inedible — so dry and overcooked. The biscuits and gravy were more like undiluted cream of chicken soup and hockey pucks.
An hour and $ 85 bucks later, I left hungry and irritated. $ 20 per person? This isn’t Vegas or even downtown Denver for that matter. And I would have killed for some of that crème brûlée french toast that somebody posted a picture of. WHY must you tease me oh fellow Unilocalers? It would have been cheaper and by far more delicious to go to any other independent breakfast joint in Denver. I mean… Denver has some radical food! Needless to say, I will never be back. Even my Nana said, we should have just gone to Denny’s (face palm).
As far as service goes, we actually had good service and the ambiance wasn’t bad either. Kind of like a sports bar. This is the only reason why they get 2 stars instead of 1.

Living so close by, I’m kicking myself for not knowing about this place before!
I would probably give three stars for the food… The benedict was overly rich for such a large portion, and my over-​easy came out over-​hard.
Anyone who knows me however, knows that on days off of school I judge a good brunch by the quality/​quantity of the mimosas. Bottomless for $ 9.99 is a great deal when they serve you an entire bottle of champagne in a jug with just a splash of not-​too-​pulpy OJ. I can’t wait for my next three day weekend to come back!

This is a really great place with an interesting menu. The staff is very friendly and helpful and works very hard to insure they provide prompt service. It’s a new place and they are doing a great job.
It’s my second time here and everything was perfect again.
Also, the beef is natural and grass fed, so you won’t be ingesting antibiotics and extra hormones, which are very important things I look for in a restaurant.
This will be a regular spot for me whenever I’m in this neck of the woods

The Grubbery is located of the Havannah exit on your way to Downtown Denver in Stapleton. There is an Embassy Suites off the Exit, and it just a half mile further in an industrial looking complex.
Everything on the menu is only $ 6 – 7! Except I saw a pasta dish for about $ 10 – 11. Seriously a deal. The service was great– super nice and attentive. The food was huge and fresh and delish. THey have alcohol– free wine or beer when you check in on Unilocal– this place is a no brainer 5 star. I got the apple bacon grilled cheese and a salad and they were perfect. THe nutella banana bread pudding dessert was enough for 4 people! And it was $ 6!
I love the grubbery– it is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner and you should go.

Went out to meetup with some friends here last night.
This hidden Breakfast mainly place does not disappoint for HAPPY HOUR.
2−4 – 1’s on bottle beers AND a FREE BEER/​WINE Unilocal Check In.
Food was great as well.
½ Price Pizzas for HAPPY HOUR
I had the White Chicken pizza which is on a flatbread style crust and has a creamy pesto sauce.
Pretty good– but a great deal for the price.
I’m sure this place a great for the breakfast/​brunching crowds. But I must recommend it for HAPPY HOUR if you are ever out in this area
