If you want to be ignored and treated like shit, this is the place for you. Also saw one of the servers literally hack (cough) in their hands and continue serving food. Never been so grossed out in my life. This place is horrible. read more

Great small hole in the wall, they are known for Rocky Mountain oysters and they were great, i got the all you can eat oysters which is the Sunday special. Prices are very reasonable read more

See all

Here's the deal. Bruce's is a dive bar with good food. Anyone commenting on decor or atmosphere maybe doesn't understand that no one goes to Bruce's for the decor. It's a place you go when someone in the group hasnt had RMOs, when you need a Bloody Mary & a breakfast burrito or if you want some good bar food. The brisket sandwich is a personal favorite. Don't go if you're looking for white glove service or a gourmet culinary experience. read more

eh i hate to be harsh but this place really didn't deliver....on a few levels. first let me start with the positives... i LOVE the way the place looks on the outside. As a "tourist", we came here because we heard they had some of the best oysters in colorado, and we wanted something local as well, so when we pulled up...bam I was happy. Unfortunately, I gotta say, that's where the love for the place ends. The staff wasn't ultra friendly. We had a pretty long wait when it came to checking our ID's (me and my girlfriend are 30 btw). Another manager came over to appologize about the ID situation btw (to follow up by asking us about our birthdays and such.....). I don't really mind this, especially since we both have out of state IDs, but it was just the first of a few "eh" moments. So we had the ID moment and then I hate to say, our waitress was just straight up not a friendly person. I felt like I was burdening her throughout our stay. And then the food...well, the oysters were fine I guess. If that's how rocky mountain oysters are, that's how they are, but to me they just tasted like "fried (blank)". they tasted like fried anything if that makes sense. My elk burger was fine. Everything was fine...but that's about it. The low review is based mostly on an un-welcoming staff + decent food + eh interior. If you're from out of town...i'd say don't go TOO out of your way for this place. read more

So I have not had bull fries in many years. When I heard the buzz about Bruce's I figured I had to go... My kid and I had 2 plates of oysters......More than enuf food for 4 or 5 people. The fries were delicious! We had a combo of Bison, Beef and Lamb. All good! Folks were friendly and the service was good. Rog read more

If looking for over-priced food with pretentious preparations this is not your scene. We visit weekly, have always had friendly, great service. A great place to take friends and family when visiting from out of town. It's just good food made simply and well by genuine folks. read more

Balls. Slice them, fry them, dip them in sauce, grub forever and ever. Man, I love this place. No frills. I go here everytime I go goose hunting in northern Colorado. Highlight of my trip!! read more

This place gets 2 stars only for the waitstaff being accommodating and seating us without a reservation. We won't be back though. There were 11 of us. They got one order wrong and she had to wait an additional 20 minutes for the correct order while the rest of us had ours. The guy that ordered steak and potato got a cold steak and potato was hard. He took his plate to the manager who told him they should have never sat us in the first place and we should have went somewhere else. Really? What kind of service is that? He did comp his meal but he did not get dinner... Not good service and food was par. We won't be back. read more

Service is a problem. I understand I had a large group (2 adults and 8 varying age kids) but that doesn't explain why food took an hour to get to the table and glasses sat empty even tho wait staff said they were bringing a pitcher to the table. After I politely expressed that this was unacceptable nothing improved. After a second reminder to the wait staff that service was lacking it got somewhat better. Bill was $145, left to waitress 2 100's and told her that this was the second time we had this poor level of service and would never be returning. read more

Been here a few times now. Always a good hamburger and the staff is always nice! My husband and son always get the Rocky Mountain oysters and say that they're really good! read more

Stopped in for dinner tonight... it was not good at all. The service was horrible. There were only 2 servers and the place was packed. It took forever to get our food and when it finally got to us it was cold. The fish and chips I ordered were flavorless and fries were dry and cold. The guys ordered the steak and shrimp specials and both steaks were overcooked. We've been there before and always had enjoyed our meal, but tonight was a disaster!! read more

Awesome friendly service, great prices, cheap margaritas! and great food. My boys all had Rocky Mountain oysters and loved them. My daughter found vegetarian options and I was really disappointed there were no gluten free Rocky Mountain oysters :( read more

Ok place. Claim to fame is the rocky Mountain oysters. I personally like the Buffalo oysters better. Other than that, just a regular place with regular food. Biker bar with cheap beer and a couple populars like Blue Moon or Fat Tire. They were actually kinda rude to my wife once. She ordered the special, we then heard someone at the bar order the same, and then 5 minutes later we were told they were out but then the guy at the bar still got it. When we asked about this, we were basically treated like crap and told it wasn't a big deal. How do you run out of the special at 6 pm in a place that is never all that busy!? read more

Bruce's is a great destination off the beaten path for a nice afternoon or evening drive. The food is good & plentiful for the price. I enjoy the Sat prime rib dinner special. The RMO's are OK as well. read more

The food was really good and the Oysters delish! To bad the service was not good. Don't think I will drive this far again..

Bruce's bar has great ambiance and is world famous for their Rocky Mountain Oysters. Come in today and check us out! Our new and improved staff is there to serve you! We have more beers on tap now! read more

Best bar food! Great staff! Fun place! Favorite hole in the wall, has awesome different kinds of meat and of course their Rocky Mountain oysters. read more

I love this place!! The Rocky Mountain oysters are amazing, tender, and the best I've ever had. They also have a version made from buffalo. In addition to that, they have great burgers made from different local meats. Oh yea, of you like dessert go for the homage cobbler and Blue Bell ice cream. I swear it taste just like grandma's. read more

My band, Off the Clock, has played there several times. I must say that Bruce's has always provided great service, food, and atmosphere. Bruce is a great host, and he well treat you right! read more

I've lived within walking distance from Bruce's for over 2 years now. We've been here a dozen times and regret it every time. Today we tried the breakfast hoping the dogs would be better. The food is terrible and the service is worse. Waited almost 40 minutes for some of the worst food I've ever eaten. I was astonished how bad it was. We'll never be back and I don't recommend anyone ever eat here. read more

Horrible. The waitress was a grumpy woman who couldn't even manage to take our drink order with civility, much less friendliness. She was also snippy when taking our food order...in fact, the only time she managed to behave marginally better was right before "tip time." The place was practically empty, but half of our table's orders arrived about 10 minutes after the first group, so we were eating in shifts. Everything is fried to within an inch of its life, so it doesn't matter what you get -- chicken strips, mushrooms, Rocky Mountain Oysters -- they all taste like fried batter. Try your luck at Bruce's if you're desperate, but don't expect much. read more

I live in Ault, just 11 miles away from Bruce's Bar. There has not been a real restaurant in Ault for several years now. On Sunday night I went to Bruce's. There were 2 very young girls waiting tables. Actually 1 was spending quite a lot of time staring at the computer/cash register, in bewilderment. I sat down at the bar so one of them would notice me. Restaurant's in Weld county are notorious for poor service, so I do what I can to be seen when I enter. After several minutes I stood up and, completely unnoticed, walked out. Now I do this frequently, as I am from a part of the U.S. where bad service is NOT the norm, and I am not tolerant. I'm sure I will return to Bruce's, but not without calling to find out how many waitresses are working at that moment. read more

You're an idiot if you don't try this place. Great drink specials, amazing food, and if you don't try the beef or buffalo (my personal favorite) Rocky Mountain Oysters, you're missing out on a serious foodgasm. Located in wonderful Severence, CO, you won't get better Rocky Mountain Oysters anywhere else in the world. Don't forget about the great live music on Saturdays. Definitely worth the few mile trek off the beaten path. read more

Yelp will probably bump this since I don't write reviews very often, and because Bruce's doesn't need a bloated review from people like me to stay in business -- they've been around 60 years by following the same formula day in, day out. The 5 stars isn't based solely on quality of food or service, but more on the "comfort" factor that some things never change. You don't go here for a fine dining experience, although there are places that (thanks to Bruce's) serve Rocky Mountain oysters on china and white table cloths. If you want that, you're in the wrong town. Bruce's is all about good food, good portions, served in a unique atmosphere. As a poor college kid in Greeley 35 years ago I came here to get a bunch of food at a reasonable price and then unwind with live entertainment. During a recent visit to CO we stopped by for a plate of oysters and some beers, and if not for some minor interior changes we felt like we were transported back in time. Heck, I think the girl at the bar may have waited on us 35 years ago. The beef balls were exactly as we remembered -- tasty with a little bit of chew (but not tough). The addition of buffalo -- either as a hamburger or balls -- was interesting. I reluctantly tried the buff balls, and they were so good and tender we ended up ordering another plate. We knew to get there early on a Saturday, so we had plenty of attention from our servers. By the time the band started playing, the place was packed with a mix of college kids, bikers and obvious locals. EXACTLY as it was 35 years ago. Bruce's is an institution that must be experienced to be appreciated. If you can't come to grips with eating RM oysters for what they are, their hamburgers are cooked-to-order AWESOME. If staying in the Loveland/Ft. Collins/Greeley area, you're only about 30 minutes from Bruce's -- do yourself a favor and head over to this little piece of Americana. read more

Service and food were great until it was time to pay. We received a coupon for my husband's birthday for a free Entree no strings attached. The server did not remove the entree and had to ask the manager for assistance. The manager removed the cheapest meal. I mentioned this to the server and it took over a half hour to receive the revised bill. We paid and left. Much to my dismay, we were charged for the incorrect bill and the correct bill. I left message, sent e-mails and disputed it with my bank. My bank removed the charge and the next day Bruce's charged my credit card a third time for the incorrect amount! I called the location and the manager Will stated the only way they could fix it is if I came in and they gave me cash. Wow! Talk about poor cash management training! What a Happy Birthday for my husband. The free entree for your birthday with no strings attached sure has wasted a lot of our time. read more
