Bayou Mountain @ Bob’s Diner Crestone

We stumbled across this tiny spot in the center of Crestone and were immediately hooked — the moment we opened the door, the aroma told us we’d found something special. We ordered the New Orleans–style honey fried chicken sandwich with fries, and it was hands down the biggest, juiciest, most perfectly seasoned chicken sandwich I’ve ever had — anywhere in the world, even in Louisiana! The crispy fries were golden perfection, and the malt was a nostalgic, creamy treat. Owner and chef Keith is as memorable as the food itself — warm, welcoming, and full of great conversation.

Delicious! Missed breakfast but the lunch was great. We got the Friday fried chicken lunch special and fried chicken sandwich with rosemary honey. The sides (potato salad and mac & cheese) were tasty, good flavor!

The word has spread! We drove over an hour to come have breakfast at Bayou Mountain, and we were not at all disappointed! We got to meet the human behind the magic, and we were happy to enjoy the morning hanging out, talking, and enjoying some delicious food. We ate breakfast fare, but we already have plans to come back for lunch. Yummm IYKYK
