    Patio
    Nicole S.

    What a lovely place! Stopped by on a long lunch break to sit in the sun on the patio and was not disappointed! The patio is lovely and has a mini water fountain. The staff was super helpful and kind. They have good gluten free options with gf bread substitutes for breakfast and lunch. I got a tuna salad sandwich with fruit and it was great!

    this is our drinks at the bar

    This place is absolutely phenomenal! The staff is great and everyone is so sweet! The food is so good and everything was absolutely amazing! best breakfast in town!!

    Quesadilla with pork green chile
    Angelo W.

    Some of the best breakfast choices in Fort Collins. They changed owners 1.5 years ago and man what an improvement. The cinnamon roles are AMAZING... the pork green chile is excellent and their omelettes...... perfect. Ps. Service was slow but the staff is friendly and communicated this well and often. As long as expectations are set up front this is less of an issue.

    Coffee cappuccino

    I have seen this cafe many times and heard it was good. Decided to go with a friend for lunch and check it out. She happens to have to use a walker and it was a bit of a challenge to get her to the restaurant side of the building. We did find a ramp on the side where they have retail and knitting studio. You then have to wind your way through a few room to get to the cafe. Lots to look at on the way ! We sat at a nice table by the window and started with a iced coffee cappuccino. They serve breakfast and lunch. Many good choices for either meal. We had a burger w/ grilled onion and mushroom on a sesame bun. Side of fries...... seasoned and crispy! Also, had the Cobb salad with blue cheese dressing. Was a very good, fresh salad with mixed greens and all the good stuff that comes with a Cobb. There were sandwiches, wraps and a yummy sounding quesadilla. To end our meal, we shared the bourbon pecan pie! Oh my! Get a slice :-) Great place for breakfast or lunch . Been around for many years and now I know why!

Seated quickly when we got there. The place was packed and the staff still managed to be attentive and friendly without rushing us. We ordered the Brussels sprouts for the table (good portion) and three of the 15" pizzas: Pepperoni, The Jimbo, and The Pesto. Plenty of food, went home with leftovers. The Pepperoni was the standout for me, rich flavor, the kind you keep going back for. Drinks were a strong point too: good wine and cocktail list, and while there's no full beer list, they had a decent IPA on hand. Vibe surprised me. For how busy it was, we never had to raise our voices to talk across the table. Indoor and outdoor seating, full bar, ample parking. Works for couples or a group dinner. Get the Pepperoni, grab a spot on the waitlist before you head over, and sit on the patio if the weather cooperates.

We originally planned to stay for happy hour, but ended up spending nearly three hours there because we were enjoying ourselves so much. Social is one of those rare places that completely lives up to the hype. From the moment you walk downstairs, the atmosphere transports you to another era. The speakeasy vibe is authentic without feeling gimmicky, and every detail has clearly been thoughtfully designed. It's a super cool speakeasy with a warm, inviting interior that makes you want to settle in and stay awhile. We shared the charcuterie board, which was excellent, and enjoyed both the champagne and the bourbon. Everything was high quality and thoughtfully prepared. Ryan, our bartender, really made the experience special. He treated us exceptionally well, made us feel genuinely welcome, and provided outstanding service throughout the evening. What started as a plan to enjoy happy hour turned into one of the most enjoyable evenings we've had in a long time. It's the perfect place for a date night or simply a relaxing evening with exceptional food, outstanding cocktails, and an atmosphere that's second to none. We'll definitely be back now that we live here in Fort Collins. If you're looking for an unforgettable experience in Fort Collins, Social is an absolute must-visit. Highly recommended!

If you want a late night whiskey or beer or maybe a hot dog this place is fine. But if you want a warm meal then go somewhere else. I don't even think they have the equipment for it. Last two times I accepted the food and said nothing. Thought it was quirky or just my mood. Tonight was just stupid. My daughter and I rode our bikes here and we both ordered potatoes. They were uncooked. Not even warm enough to melt butter. I had mine taken back and reheated and even with the oven and everything they were unable to melt the butter on top of the potato. My daughter didn't complain and just picked at hers while we waited. After spending an extra 10 minutes in the oven the butter was still not melted. I'm not 100% on cooking but I'm pretty sure thats not how it works. They took off $5 for the potato (out of the $25 price) and then the waitress tried to defend it by saying it was the type of cheddar that kept it from melting. I really hope they fail and we can get a competent dive bar here because it is nice to get a late night drink.

    Many thanks to the kind owner who graciously gave us a tour on Saturday (when they don't normally…read moredo tours) after our flight was super delayed and we couldn't make our Thursday tour we had scheduled online. It was probably one of the best distillery tours I've been on, he was so knowledgeable about spirits in general, you could tell he was passionate about making a quality whiskey. Not only did he talk extensively on whiskey, but all other spirits - vodka, gin, tequila, bourbon v. rye v. irish v. blended whiskey. Why we can't call something "tequila" in the U.S. because it isn't made in Mexico. It was more of a insightful tour of spirits and then talked about his specific distillery. You can tell how much he cares. The spirit tasting at the end was also insightful - taught us how to smell the whiskey, from top to bottom and how it smells different. Compared the un-barreled to the barreled whiskey, it was just a great distillery tour. Thank you! The tasting room is small, and the location is relatively out of the way of most things, but the bartender was very kind and showed us the MANY menus. If there is a piece of advice I'd give, it's condense your menus so it's not so overwhelming. I was also surprised that such a purist has so many sweet drinks on their menu - pudding, girl scout pairings, etc. Maybe just for Easter and holidays? Give this place a try, much better than NOCO distillery.

I thought I had progressed taste bud wise to a whiskey tasting but as it turns out my cool factor isn't there yet. Instead I settled on a whiskey cocktail that was quite delicious.

Their cocktail was a winter version with some spiced simple syrup that while tasty, I would have preferred to not have the cinnamon notes. I ended up passing my flight over to the hubs and our friend and they were most happy indeed. The staff was really nice and definitely into their craft.
