Howling Coyote Roadhouse – Fresh, Flavorful Mexican Cuisine and Cozy Vibes in Walden, CO

We stopped in here for lunch a few months ago and decided to host our wedding reception here before we even paid our bill. Jessica and the whole crew were amazing to work with and really helped to make the event special. Food is great, drinks are amazing, and the prices are right. Highly recommend stopping here on your way through Gould!

Great find on our trip to State Forest State Park. Loved the decor and the food was terrific. Chips and salsa were handmade and delicious. The Enm oladas (chicken enchiladas in mole and cheese) were very good!

I’d highly recommend stopping into the Howling Coyote. Jessica and Kaia are very welcoming and the food is fresh and very tasty. The atmosphere is unique due to the absolutely beautiful wood bar and center fireplace. Try a Jalapeño Margarita and the smothered burrito and you will not be disappointed!

May10,2025 - Our group came here again, as we had all enjoyed our meals last time. We were not disappointed! The Smothered Al Pastor Burrito was awesome. Fresh made tortilla chips and pico digoyo was great. Some other meals came with house made potato chips. Service was very pleasant, a bit slower than other places due to everything being fresh made, so we didn't mind at all. Definitely worth the wait. If you're coming this way, or just make it part of your route to stop in and enjoy fresh made food in a really comfortable place!! We will definitely be back. Our motorcycle group stopped here a couple weeks ago, all were very pleased! Our whole group was happy with the menu items we ordered. We'll definitely be back! We were told that all food was made daily. The green chili burrito I ordered had good, flavorful spice without overpowering the flavor. Id order that again!

Had no clue this place would be this good. We walked in just out of curiosity. We even had dinner back at our camp site. But we couldn’t pass up the food. This place had good food, good drinks and great service. We had some margaritas and shared an enormous tampiquena plate. And we had to follow it up with some fried ice cream. Tomorrow morning we definitely want to come for breakfast - chilaquiles! Lots of places to sit. Pet friendly. And plenty of parking. Full service bar.

Fantastic food! That's what matters, right? The salsa was off the charts. Chips, beans, enchiladas...everything was fresh made and tasted like it. They gave me about a gallon of perfectly brewed iced-tea and I left stuffed and amazed. I had been driving all day yesterday and still had to go over Cameron Pass and back to Boulder. This was the last place to grab a bite. I stopped, pulled in, and sat in my truck hesitating to go in. There were five or six cars in the lot but I thought I might be walking into a Sunday evening at a rough biker bar. From the outside it was tough to say what would be behind the door. I'm really glad I went in! Two guys down the bar were talking about surfing in Mexico where both had their own places. (I think they were lawyers or doctors.) The waitresses were both nice and funny. Only a couple of other customers were there and they were having dinner as well. Awesome meal and great vibe. I will make it a point to stop here every time I go by. Seriously, the food was fantastic and the atmosphere was cool. My kind of place. Honestly, anybody's kind of place. They are nice and they have a great chef. Big fan. Five stars for sure!

Great place. I'm not even one for Mexican cuisines but this place is the best. The staff is all nice and the atmosphere is great. Serving sizes are also great; got one plate of chicken enchiladas for me and my father and we hardly finished it. Would highly recommend.
