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 is essentially a food truck, but an old train car instead. The menu is simple, but has high quality ingredients. My three kids and I all got the Chicago “L” dogs, and all of us were really impressed. They were absolutely delicious!! There are two tables with umbrellas that give you a nice shady place to sit. After eating, my kids and I all agreed that we would now always choose this place 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 reading more about the mission of Little Engine Eatery. We were already impressed, but the fact that it is actually a 501c3 created to give kids with developmental disabilities work experience made it even better! If you have the time, I recommend watching the short video on their website talking about how it started and their mission. What an amazing little gem!!
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.
A must try in BV! We visit from Virginia every year and always look forward to their hotdogs.
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.
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!
Delicious all natural brats and hot dogs! It’s a food truck with a couple of tables next to it to eat at. The staff is super friendly and attentive. Nice little stop on our road trip.
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 Eatery is different. They have a mission to employ and give opportunities to the precious lives of our society that many others forget about. They are a nonprofit that provide paid work experience for people with learning disabilities. It was born of the parents love 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!!!
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!
Friendly service and quick food for those on the go. Vegetarian hot dogs are cooked on the spot. Make it a meal with chips and all sorts of fancy water. Picnic tables and shade are available too.
This was a great place to stop by. Everyone is extremely kind. I recommend to stop here if you are in Buena vista!
Friendly staff and no nonsense menu. They provide real work experience to people with learning disabilities. Happy to have given them my business.
Good hotdogs with a no fuss menu. A lowkey spot to grab a snack if you're coming from the park.
We came all the way from Greeley to support your cause and our experience was wondeful and yummy thank you we will be back
Both the veggie option and the meat option we got were excellent! Awesome toppings choices.
Great vegan brat and an even better cause! Great toppings!
Have been here twice since coming to Colorado. Both times were met with great service and delicious food.
True Chicago dogs and a worthy cause.
