  • What a beautiful sunny Sunday afternoon with Brian Kittrell. Huge talent, hopefully you can catch him around. He plays here every once in a while.

  • New owners, old staff/new staff. Went there on a Friday evening (6pm ish). Immediately sat by the friendly host staff. Received waters with in 8 min. Fast service and pretty fast food! Around 7 they got a lot more tables filled all at once and our service never lulled. Everyone was helping everyone it seemed. Special was prime rib. 10/10 on those. Three of us got it and all of them were cooked properly and were delicious. We also got bbq wings (10/10, not too small) and jalapeño poppers (8/10) (both just ever so slightly spicy). One of us got a burger well done, was cooked properly also. Fries weren't over seasoned and were hot! All of the desserts, because yes we got them all!, were awesome! Our overall rating between the five of us was the chocolate cake though, was the best! Horchata bites were very cinnamony if you like a little spicyness in the best way get those! Prices were as expected since it's up by reservoir/ In mountains. Overall super excellent and highly recommend. Our server was a brunette like 5' 7'' with cute Indian made earrings and glass blown necklace. (I'm so sorry we don't remember your name). SHARON is also the best person/bartender/staff there! So ask for her!

  • We stopped here on the way back from a bike ride and the beer was cold with a perfectly cooked burger. Hit the spot!

  • It's a great bar/restaurant here by the Horsetooth. Food was good. Service is great. The cherry on the top is there are two stages, one inside and one outside. They have all kinds of music scheduled for many many weeks. The restaurant is very clean and tidy. Highly recommended.

  • What a great find!! Our first visit and we loved it! Just outside of if Fort Collins and worth the scenic drive! The staff was great! They had indoor and outdoor seating. Live music on certain days of the week. The food was great! Burgers, party melt, green chili and taco salad were all fantastic! We'll be back to try their brunch!

  • Haven’t been up to the tavern in a while. It has been renovated and has an elevated look but the old locals only feel. Great music and food was great. We especially enjoyed the chili cheese fries and cold beer after our hike at horsetooth falls. Plenty of things to keep the kids busy and beautiful views.

  • What an awesome little bar up the canyon. They had a good mix of food and drinks. Get the fries, they are yummy. The pink haired server is phenomenal. This is a great place to stop after the lake or a hike.
