“Heather and all things Swing“

“Zac- Fantastic Malachi and Ryan- Incredible Entire staff- Amazing Food and drink- Wonderful Mocktail menu- 10/10 I was there the other night when a girl was on a bad date, the staff moved her over to a safe space and kept an eye on her and the situation while tending to the entire restaurant until her date left. This place is more than a one and done, the people care about you, you are safe, and everything is worth coming back for!“

“Always a great time to get a well crafted cocktail.“

“You have to go to the Mayor! They have great food. My brother said it best when he said, we've never had a bad meal here. He was so right. The food is so good and they have something for everyone. Then there's the awesome service. The people are always fun, helpful, and nice. On top of all that they have 100 taps and again there's something for everyone. I have never not had at least 4 beers I want to try. They do flights of anything you want too. It's one of our favorite places to take people from out of town. We are from Windsor and never mind the drive. If you haven't been do yourself a favor and go check it out.“

“Great experience at this restaurant. The food was delicious and the espresso martini was even better. Enjoyed the patio! Our server did an excellent job making sure our food & drinks were perfect. Drove from Cheyenne, Wy for brunch . We will definitely be back!“

“I’m about to sound like a full-on boomer, so feel free to just call me Karen (and honestly… is Linda really that far off?).

We went to Wobble HiFi thinking we were cool, fun, go-with-the-flow people… and left realizing we might actually be one complaint away from asking to speak to a manager.

First things first: the music is loud. Like, very loud. Which, in hindsight, feels obvious for a cocktail lounge literally centered around vinyl and sound. But that didn’t stop us from exchanging at least three “wow it’s loud in here” looks within the first 10 minutes like we just discovered nightclubs exist.

At one point, a record came on that genuinely sounded like we had walked into a haunted house. Shrill screaming, eerie vibes, mild emotional distress. Was it intentional? Was it art? Were we being summoned? We may never know.

Our waiter was super nice, but definitely had a stronger relationship with the vinyl collection than with… us. There were moments where we weren’t sure if he was serving tables or curating a personal soundtrack for his inner journey. Respect, honestly.

Now the drinks. The menu reads like a creative writing assignment, and we understood approximately none of it. But somehow, against all odds, we ended up with something absolutely delicious. So no notes there, just confusion and gratitude.

All jokes aside, this place is actually really cool. The staff is friendly, the concept is unique, and the vibe is strong. Just know that if you’ve ever caught yourself saying “it’s a little loud in here” unironically… you may be closer to your boomer era than you think.

We’ll be back, but next time we’re bringing earplugs.“

“Whiskey neat, old fashions, Irish“

“Every time I’ve been here it’s been pretty much solely in the year 2025. I was reading some old reviews and was surprised at how negative some of them were by calling it non-inclusive. That may have been true at one point so I won’t discredit those statements and I am a cisgender white man, but I’ve generally been in the minority every time I am there. Lots of people from across the spectrum and while there may be some bashing of people who are trying to take away some of our rights, I would hope that would be expected from a place like this. I won’t get political but figured I’d include that. Regardless, there’s never been any real hate and I’m an awkward dude and get uncomfortable when there’s any tension, and generally haven’t been any more uncomfortable than I usually am. So—for the year 2025, I’d say a lot of the previous negative reviews in 2021 just don’t apply any more or I’m missing some very dramatic days during the work week.“

“Great service, fun night!“

“Magic Rat Presents: The Honey Roses,
FINALLY a venue that does true justice to the awesome talent of the five members. Great job to the sound engineer and of course fantastic job as always to The Honey Roses ready to share their artistry with those who want to experience a roof blown clean off... Anyone looking to hire a great band for your next venue, look no further. . . The Honey Roses will not disappoint.“

“This is truly one of my favorite places in town! It’s just such a great place to get a beer and some grub. Truly an awesome spot to hang! We watched the broncos come back from a 26 point deficit and I wouldn’t want to watch it anywhere else!! I highly recommend this bar to anyone!!“

“Relaxed atmosphere and a great place to grab a relaxing drink“

“For over 20 years now, LJs has been a regular hangout for me. I’ve met many people there and look forward to the next 20. (If Deano can still hang with us at 86 yo, then so can I!!) Their food menu has a nice variety and daily specials are always well done. This pub truly emanates a feeling of family. It’s amazing how many long-term employees are there, which is a direct reflection of the ownership and managers caring for their staff and customers. If you’ve never been to LJs or you’re just visiting FC, please stop in and join us for a pint! Cheers and Slainte!!“

“Laid back and relaxed! Great drink specials and constant service. You will not go thirsty at High Point.“

“This is definitely my favorite spot in town! They have a welcoming underground vibe, all of the staff are such kind people, and they book incredible talent. They also prioritize paying their artists and are supportive of nonprofits and local musicians and visual arts. I always come here when I'm not sure where else to go, because it's affordable and there's always something fun happening. Love these guys!“

“Olivia C. is a great waitress! The food and margaritas were so good. The restaurant has a fun vibe.“

“I've been here before and back.

All workers are emaculant. Love this place!

We need a group Backpacking trip 3 day and 7 days.

I met many excellent folks over at the Trail Head

Management always emaculant and all the hard worker's.

You all treat me with respect and appreciate it as I'm with you.

God bless Trailhead !

You all“

“We went here for our anniversary and had a great meal. We tried the crabcakes appetizer, excellent, ribeye's and baked potatoes also excellent, even split a piece of cheesecake to finish things off. Every thing was great. I can't forget to mention our server, Tony. He provided the best service and even though he had a table of 16 come in after we ordered, he still found time to come back and check on us. This might be one of the best places I've ever had a meal. Thanks for a great evening.“

“New restaurant review: Who: Indigo Where: 144 N Mason St UNIT 8, Fort Collins, CO 80524 ( underneath the parking garage at the intersection of Laporte & Mason) About them: This is a brand new upscale Indian cuisine concept that has been open since July 4th 2025. The Feed.... Main items ordered: Signature Grilled Indigo Lobster - fresh tail Grilled with garlic and herbs served with drawn butter, rice and a small Julianne style fresh vegetable slaw. Goat Chettina - slow cooked meat in a chettina style black pepper with coconut curry. Palak Paneer - Cottage cheese cubes in a very smooth spinach sauce Bread: Garlic Naan Rosemary Naan Drinks: Spicy Mango Mule (Mocktail) Coke Dessert: Rose Rosmalai - soft sleeve dumplings soaked in fragrant rose scented saffron milk. The Experience: We had walked by this place waiting for it to open for weeks and were happy to see people eating there this weekend so we gave it a try. We were greeted by one of the owners and sat at a corner table of our choosing. As we looked over the menu we spoke with Nishant about some of the items on the menu as well as the overall idea behind this concept. He told us that their goal was to open up a space that was unlike any other In town with an emphasis on food quality, execution and attention to detail. Our drinks were served and I will see it took a little more time than normal to get them but not the end of the world.. The star of the show was the food. Where to start.... The lobster dish not only was plated well but the flavors on the tails were amazing. Grilled perfectly and the protein was not rubbery so they know how to cook this. The goat Chettina was well presented with my only criticism being that I had to navigate some very big and small bones but the meat was very tender and well flavored. The sauces are unique to each dish as as anyone who has been to Indian restaurants will tell you... alot of the times this is not the case.. They build these flavor profiles separately and each stands alone as its own unique dish which makes this place different. The Palek Paneer hands down is the best representation of this type of dish I have ever had. The freshness of the cheese is one thing but the silky smooth finish of the spinach... WOW... My big complaint about this dish at the places I have been is that the cheese gets granular with a sandy type finish. Not here. This was fresh, smooth and just melted in your mouth with each bite.. when you add the extra flavor texture of the spinach to this its a home run. The Naan's were thinner than I am used to but very good just different.. The fresh Rosemary was just incredible. That hit your nose as soon as they brought the food out. Freshly cut too. The Rose Rosmalai was just great and something we had never tried before and to say it continues the theme of uniqueness that we found at this restaurant would be an understatement. The cheese dumplings were great but the rose forward smell and the saffron milk together just made for a perfect flavor explosion... what a great way to end the meal. Overall Impressions: They are new, they are young and they are here to prove that you can be unique in this space which is difficult but not impossible. Everything we had here was different than anything we have had at other Indian restaurants so as long as they continue this level of execution the people will come.. they are going to be successful. Their food preparation and quality are already at a very high level. They are meeting the moment and a few small things aside this is as close to culinary perfection as one can get. As a resprentation of several parts of India I would say they know their food and their menu reflects this so there is something here for everyone. Thank you to the two owners A.J. & Nishant for their hard work and for taking the time to talk with us. We wish you nothing but continued success. You will do well and this is a welcomed and unique addition to the Fort Collins food scene. Indigo is definitely a 1 of 1 Happy eating !“

“Best venue in northern Colorado!“

“There’s 6 of us in our family and ALL agree Cheba Hut is #1 in Fort Collins! Possibly the US but we haven’t ventured far from local, lol. The Griefo is BOMB! The White Willow is my husband fav, and seriously there’s not a bad thing on the menu !“

“Awesome views and great employees, located on the fifth floor of the new Elizabeth Hotel in downtown FoCo. Kyle and Dan were ace.

The place serves expert cocktails in the retro style and a few small plates (honestly go downstairs to the Emporium if you want dinner, this is the place for cocktails and small bites).

Lately every time we go we see Mark Sloniker doing his jazz and blues. He's always good.“

“I wandered into this incredibly cool beer bar while exploring the downtown area, and it was a total paradise for anyone who loves a great brew. The wall of tap handles is absolutely massive, and they have an amazing, rotating selection of everything from local microbrews to rare imports that you can't find anywhere else. The bartender was super passionate and let me try a couple of samples before I committed to a full pint of a fantastic local IPA, and the laid-back, unpretentious vibe made it the perfect place to sit back and relax after a long day of sightseeing. I also grabbed a quick basket of their garlic fries which came out hot and perfectly seasoned, making this an absolute must-visit spot whenever you are passing through town.“

“We hosted a CSU Graduation party 5/2023 for about 30 people. Old Town Putt staff could not have been friendlier, accommodating, and helpful!!! This is such a fun place to have a private party. Ours was semi-private, we reserved the patio and game room. Everyone had So Much Fun!! We highly recommend Old Town Putt for a party or any time!“

“How often do you find a dedicated gluten free kitchen AND absolutely mouthwatering tasty food? this is the only place I've found that I will eat anything without reservation as someone with Celiac, and the food is 10/10. they also have super tasty cider, live performances, and a super cool vibe. this has quickly become my favorite haunt!“

“Awesome service, pet friendly in outdoor seating area, and the Local Sausage Pizza was fabulous. Thanks Luke and Andrea.“

“Waiting, Food, Service, Cocktalis Fast, Friendly, Delicious.“

“Came in on a Saturday it wasn’t very busy but the bartender jazzy was so cool she put on two different games I wanted to watch on the TVs and she made great drinks! Best bartender I’ve had in awhile. No food is the only downside. Would recommend to watch a game or get a cheap drink!“

“The staff at Ace Gillett’s is what makes it truly exceptional, but their cocktails are as good as they come - and the food, delicious! It’s a place I consider home. Love it.“

“Had an amazing time at the bar joking around with staff and patrons. Everyone seemed to know each other and were very welcoming. Great prices. Loved the whiskey Mexican coffee on tap. Best bacon wrapped jalapenos I've ever had. Definitely get the Pint O Bacon.“

“What a delightful place for groups, brunch, lunch or a special occasion. So many beautiful areas of the farmhouse and fantastic farm-fresh food and fun variety of drinks! Wonderful people run this place and provide jobs and support to families and the community and so happy to help support small businesses like these however we can 🙌🏻“

“I can’t say enough good things about this place. The food, atmosphere and staff are top notch. I’ll definitely be back and if you’ve never been - what are you waiting for?! 😋😎“

“This place is the perfect blend of very high quality and relaxed/welcoming at the same time. The drinks and food never disappoint! Staff is AMAZING: knowledgeable, approachable, professional, friendly and welcoming! Seats can fill up fast, but seating is so comfortable and cozy! A very classy establishment with a hint of alternative flair.“

“Wandered in early on a Monday night. It's a huge place, very well maintained. I imagine it's a huge party when full!“

“Had their food last week and it was delicious. Everything fresh, customer service amazing! Loved your trivia on the board! Didn’t get the answer right but loved it. Ate upstairs in the beautiful day and could see everyone enjoying the atmosphere“

“The waiter, Ryan did an outstanding job taking care of us. Everything came out quickly and was very delicious!“

“Have you met Rachael?? She is the bartender who took care of me. She was on point! The California heat tacos were fantastic!! I had mine prepared with the tempura shrimp, with a nice shot of butt burning habanero sauce. The sides were black beans with the cilantro rice. The rice was the perfect texture to accent the cilantro flavor. I mixed the beans in cause I’m that guy!! All around 5 stars.“

“La Buena Vida is by far my favorite restaurant in CO! Not only do they have exceptional service, but the food is outstanding!! It’s well presented and full of Michoacán flavors! If you are a foodie this is a MUST!! Margaritas are to die for!!!“
