    Grandmas Hot Cakes
    Scott G.

    We were almost super sad thinking our beloved Doug's had potentially closed, BUT ALAS! They only moved their Boulder location to the shopping center Baseline and Broadway. Doug's is a quaint brunch eatery with that grandma and grandpas dining room feel, and the classic great tastes as well. Today consisted of Grandma's Hotcakes, and I chuck'd it up (which they add double the amount of blueberries or chocolate chips) getting both a blueberry and chocolate hot cake. The restaurant, tends to be popular, and though they were extremely busy, the wait staff was EXCEPTIONAL, being attentive to our water and drink glasses needing refills. We return to Doug's each trip we make back to the Boulder area as they have the quintessential Huevos Rancheros which my wife has yet to meet its equal. But don't take my word for it alone, go get you some pronto pardner!

    I'm updating my review on Doug's. Everything is still as good except the hash browns. These used to be exceptional as they seemed to be cut from fresh potatoes, but have changed to what appear to be typical frozen hash browns. I'm sure this was a cost cutter, but the old potatoes really distinguished Doug's from other restaurants. The staff continues to be outstanding.

    Autumn Scramble with Butternut Squash.  Delicious!

    This was a very tasty special. I received excellent service from Oscar. Good tunes in a very comfortable dining room.

    Second time eating at Doug's Diner. I asked for avocado and jalapeños omelet. Someone in the kitchen does not know how to cut vegetables sloppy job. The potatoes were over crispy like burned, and full of oil. The avocado was rotten. I'm truly sorry to give this two stars review but you guys must do something to change.

    We enjoy Doug's, it's mid level food and prices. Not too busy even on the weekends and good for when other high traffic places are too crowded. Friendly staff and clean environment.

    My boyfriend and I went here a couple months ago, and while we aren't blown away, we did have an okay time! I have no complaints. The food was worth the price. So in conclusion I would say this place is a good place for any locals living nearby to check out.

    Vanilla Cafe Latte

    Nice atmosphere, clean, friendly staff. I stopped in during a trip for a quick breakfast. It was really good and the coffee was amazing. I'd definitely come back.

    Bison burger lettuce wrap. Definitely an exciting amount of lettuce!

    The service was mediocre at best. Food was good, but never got the coffee I ordered 3 times.

    This places oozes hospitality and friendliness and good vibes. Sitting pretty on Pearl Street,…read moreLindsey's has been sitting pretty for two decades serving the community. And they do a damn good job of it! The cool thing is that it's a sandwich shop AND a Häagen Dazs ice cream store rolled up into one. Has to be one of the only places in the country of its kind! Savory or sweet, you'll find something you love here. The menu boasts sandwiches, soups, salads, breakfast, kids meals, and of course the full Häagen Dazs menu. Italian Stallion // ham, pepperoni, salami, provolone, lettuce, tomato, red onion, balsamic vinaigrette, yellow mustard & mayo on marbled rye. The Italian American favorite. All the salty and tangy notes were hit. I don't love the bread choice personally, but to each their own! I just think it would've been even more flavorful on the Ciabatta roll. Now I'm a little biased because I grew up in the Häagen Dazs world. My family owned two shops until I was 18! They have some unique flavors on hand that I haven't seen in store or other brick and mortars. I loved the selection they have on site here. Plus, the employees will happily sample whatever flavor you want to try! Huge store with lots of space to sit. Easy ordering process for either the deli or the ice cream. And seriously, some of the most friendly employees I've seen in a hot minute. For something quick and on the go, Lindsay's Boulder Deli gets my stamp of approval. And if you're lucky enough to run into Lindsay herself, you're sure in for a treat!

    These sandwiches were awesome! They have a variety of incredible sounding sandwiches which I'd love…read moreto come back to and try. The ones we got were delicious, very fresh, and super satisfying. The drink options are also really nice. I'm excited to come back and try some more! Note that they don't have a restroom you can use there so plan to wash your hands and use the restroom elsewhere. Staff was very friendly and place the was clean and well kept.

    First visit was meh for me. It's a small space- limited seating and one table was left uncleared…read morethe entire time we were there (30 minutes?), so when customers neglect to clear their own tables, staff aren't bothering to check tables. We ordered to eat there, but they still packaged our sandwiches to go. The staff didn't call out the order loud enough for us to realize they'd been prepared, so I think they sat at the counter for a while. My son was happy with his chicken pesto though he commented that it could've used a more generous application of the pesto. I kinda suffered from order regret. I chose the Turkey & Brie. The moment I unwrapped it, I was overwhelmed by the onion smell. Even after removing some of the onion, its presence lingered. My bad, I ordered it after all. The turkey and Brie comes with apple slices, and two kinds of mustard - a honey mustard and stone ground mustard. The honey mustard is what caught my eye. While I realize stone ground mustard is tangier, this sandwich was overcome by the strength of the onion and stone ground mustard. You don't even notice the apple and Brie. Just an overall miss for me. Last, if you happen to be dining in, you can use a bathroom (with a code) but it's a block away in a parking garage. I'm not down in Boulder super often, but I'm likely to skip a return visit. If I were to return, I'd try the chickpea and avocado sandwich instead and hope for better luck.
