    Watching and getting an idea of what to order next time.
    Vince L.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Wow. What a find! So much energy![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I am so glad that I got a counter seat. Got to order AND watch the process![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I was given a menu and water quickly. I was watching what was being prepared and it all looked so good! I was quickly becoming overwhelmed with choices! Not a bad thing! I did order and chatted with a customer who is sitting next to me. They are regulars and also had wonderful suggestions for food! Unless you can eat 2-3 meals at once plan to come back! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place was hopping, the service was awesome, and the food was great.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] If you are looking for a breakfast spot this is the place!

    Bacon Bleu Cheeseburger with Messy Chips!
    Christian C.

    This is my experience at the restaurant... Absolutely amazing experience and food! I had the ham Benedict and my husband had the bacon bleu cheeseburger with messy chips. The hostess and waitress were incredible! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Inside was clean and smelled great, like a true diner.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] So food 5/5, service 5/5 and overall 5/5. This is a must do in Loveland!

    Love this place! I prefer this location way more than the one in north Loveland. Their shredded potatoes are the best in town

    The Basic Breakfast - SO much food. Pictures doesn't do it justice but the biggest griddle biscuits and sausage patties I've ever seen!

    Traveling through Loveland & our local go-to spot was closed. We've eaten at Doug's Day Diner in Fort Collins many times & always enjoyed it so we decided to give the Loveland location a shot. Glad we did. The menu is pretty simple. Breakfast and brunch items (some unique) with a few burgers and salads. However, the taste is anything but simple. Really DELICIOUS food in good sized portions.. Our family of four got basic breakfast platters, biscuits & gravy and the southern sweet toast plate. Every meal was tasty and not a scrap of food was left over. The food is well cooked and served fresh at a good price. On top of that, we came in about 50 minutes before closing & still received 5 star, over-the-top friendly service from both waitresses the entire time. We will definitely be back when we travel through Loveland again!

    This is my kind of diner. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Busy, crowded, loud, with a friendly and helpful staff, an amazing menu with BIG portions.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I could even say TOO BIG, but that's a good thing. Came here a few times while working in Loveland. Every time a different order, and every time a great experience. Thanks Doug's Day Diner for the experience in Loveland!

    The Basic

    I'm from the southern US, and we do breakfast right. So when I walked into Doug's, I was a bit suspicious. Where are the grizzled veterans chain smoking in the corner? It's...clean? No grumpy server? This can't be a greasy spoon. Oh, but it is! Well, it's a delicious spoon. Food was cooked perfectly, service was great, and you got a lot of food for the price. The turkey green chili sausage was amazing, but the star of the show was the blueberry pancake. Holy cow. Doug's puts my meemaw to shame (sorry Meemaw)! Loveland, you have a treasure here. We really enjoyed it. Thank you!

    Mona omelette
    Kirk J.

    This was really good diner food. Huge portions. I had the Papas which was a base of hasnrowns and cheese and I got the asada and green chile. It had just a little heat and good flavor. Girlfriend got the Mona Omelette that had a lot of good thick cut bacon in it and a ton of chiles. It also came with a giant biscuit that was nice and crusty but also had a slightly sweet flavor. Highly recommend it if you just want really solid diner food with a big and varied menu.

    The pancakes are huge! I was torn between ham and bacon as my side dish, but I'm glad I chose the ham. It was incredibly juicy and surprisingly delicious. The hotcakes were tastefully fluffy, and the chocolate chips were a delightful addition.

    This place is in the heart of downtown Loveland and it's super freaking cute. It's definitely a diner setting and I love it. Our waitress and the staff were phenomenal couldn't ask for better service and smiles galore. The food was just absolutely fabulous. We ordered the funnel cake bacon and let me tell you it was perfect. The batter wasn't over fried nor chewy it was perfect consistency and then it parried perfectly w the syrup they brought. Then my meal i ordered I honestly couldn't tell You what I ordered cause I ordered whatever plate was walking by because it looked so freaking good. Basically what it was, was a crap ton shredded fresh potatoes smothered some sort of sauce then some of the most tender flavored beef tips I've ever had at a diner in my life followed by some over medium eggs and some jalapeños that were just the right spicyness when I tell you this plate was perfect and the best comfort food I meant it! I wish I knew the name of it! Come on Yelp help me out and correct me! Anyways this place is a must because the service, the food the location and the spot is just PERFECT if you don't try it YOURE missing out!

    B&G, Sweet Toast

    "Massive portions" is an accurate statement! Biscuits split, fried on the griddle, topped with sausage gravy and are huge and delicious. The sweet toast (French toast) was a huge portion and was also yummy. Our server was funny and attentive, & we got our food fast. Will recommend to my work guys who travel to Loveland.

    Eggs with biscuits and gravy
    Lea G.

    I have really come to be very fond of this place. I have eaten here several times, and every time each thing I put into my mouth is delicious! This time I had the crispy bird. It was on delicious wheat bread with almonds, guacamole, perfectly grilled chicken with lettuce and tomatoes. Super tasty. I chose to have a salad with blue cheese. Salad full of tasty ingredients in a blue cheese homemade and delicious. Hobby got the daily special which was a club sandwich. Equally delicious with their crispy,Tasty french fries! The service is top notch, very attentive, and the place is clean and bright. Cool locally painted are on the walls for sale. I enjoy this place and for sure will be back. You should check it out.

We did not get his name, but definitely enjoyed his company. We started with the Beer Battered Cheese Curds. We would rank them up there among the top in the State, and my wife is from Wisconsin, so we have had a Curd or two. Then I had the Fish and Chips, and she had the French Dip for dinner. Both dishes were delicious. I forgot to take pics until we were almost finished. We'll be back, and highly recommend this joint.

She consistently misses the mark on basic customer service. She rarely acknowledges guests, seems far more focused on making drinks than paying attention to the people sitting in front of her, and creates an overall unwelcoming atmosphere. On my most recent visit, I sat waiting for nearly 15 minutes without being acknowledged. It wasn't until I asked for my check because I was ready to leave that she suddenly asked if I was planning to eat. That level of inattentiveness is frustrating and completely avoidable. It's especially disappointing because the location is fantastic, the vibe is great, the food is consistently excellent, and every other bartender and staff member I've interacted with, including the manager, has been amazing. There are some truly great bartenders there who provide attentive, friendly service and make the experience enjoyable. But if I walk in and see her behind the bar, I will not stay. She has completely turned me off from being there when she is working. I hope management takes this feedback seriously, because the rest of the team and the overall experience deserve better than this one recurring issue. I am giving this review one star simply because of the continued experience with her.

Decided to try something new and took my father-in-law there for his birthday. We had reservations for 6:30pm and as we arrived, a large bus full of 50 college hockey players also arrived. It took us over 30 minutes to have somebody take our drink order and another 15 minutes for those drinks to arrive. We were seated with a happy hour menu, which was over and I had to ask the bartender for a drink menu and wine list. My water glass was very dirty and nobody ever came by the table in 90 minutes to refill our water. We were seated right next to the bar too. We were continually informed by our waitress and a barback that things were slow due to the large party in the other room. After 90 minutes passed and we still had not received our food, we asked to speak to the manager. When the manager came to our table, she did not introduce herself, so we had to assume she was the manager. Rather than own the mistake, she proceeded to throw our waitress under the bus. Our waitress was great and doing the best she could, but the restaurant was severely understaffed. They offered us free bread. We finally decided to get up and walk out and leave without being served our food. The manager chased us out the front door to bring our food in to-go boxes and as we were leaving, the entire hockey team was also leaving and getting back on their bus. So in the time we arrived for our reservation and after 90 minutes without being served, they came, ate and left. We were told this was a learning moment for her waitress, however, should be a learning moment for management to staff appropriately or just close the restaurant down to feed 50+ hockey team members. We won't be back!

We started with the Cheese Curds - these were great, the breading on the curds had really good flavor. Would order again. For entrees we ordered; bacon avocado burger - their burgers are huge, and a lot of great flavor. Would definitely order again Cup of bison chili - chunks of bison meat in the chili and was a nice portion. The flavor is good, I'm glad I tried it and would order again. Moody blue salad - this salad was big and packed full of goodies, it was the best salad I've had in a long time. The balsamic dressing was so good, mixed with the candied pecans and blue cheese, so good! I'd come back simply for this salad. Our server was a little spread thin and had tables on opposite sides of the restaurant, so we felt a little neglected, but when he was around, service was great.

Our waitress Kaitlyn took our order @ 6:23 for a bottle of wine and a crab cake for starters. Then we ordered house soup and salad so we could get dinner quickly. The wine was good and the crab cake was good. I'm in the habit of watching people come in after me to see when they get their order. The people in front of us came in approximately 10 minutes after us, the couple beside us came in a little later and the older couple came in after them. Yes we ordered before the out three couples and they had a different waitress. Kaitlyn came by a couple times to let us know our order would be out soon. The first couple got their meal, then the couple beside us got their meal. At 7:30 the couple beside us finished their dinner and Kaitlyn came by and said again "our meal would be up soon". It's just a bowl of soup and a salad, what was so hard about our order. So we cancelled our dinner with Kaitlyn. So who is to blame for us not getting dinner? Did the kitchen staff drop the ball or Kaitlyn for not following up with them for a simple order. The ambiance was quieter than normal but service was terrible
