The current facility located at 900 East Fillmore, now known as the Colorado Springs Omelette Parlor/O'Furry's serves central Colorado as the best breakfast stop in the region. It has won many awards and notable reviews over the years.
All I know is they serve the best dang Omellettes I've ever had.
The history: In 1893 this facility was purchased and built as a retirement home for movie star, Ruth Etting and her husband Merle Alderman, who also was a well-known pianist, singer and composer. They soon after turned it into a restaurant known as the T-Bone Club which they owned and operated until it eventually became the Hackney House. Both Ruth and Merle had performed in radio, and many clubs and at the Antlers Hotel. There was even a movie, "Love Me Or Leave Me" starring Doris Day telling the life story of Ruth.
