Ecclesia is a wonderful spot downtown castle rock to stop if you want great food, good vibes and something for everyone! Ecclesia has over gone a lot of changes since I visited earlier this year, so make sure to be open minded when you visit! First, the book shop *squeel* Adorable! Quaint, cute, decent selection, good children's section and they feature local authors. Support your local bookstores!!! They are wonderful. If you didn't know, this is a mini-food hall of sorts. There are several food vendors: a Bar at the top, a restaurant I've yet to visit alongside it, as well as several spots to eat downstairs. Downstairs they have : - A bagel spot (get there early for the best selection and don't be disappointed if they run out- that's what it means to have fresh baked daily!) - A great BBQ spot (this is coming from a KC native and BBQ critic!) - Apres coffee - a cute coffee shop with alternative milks and Italian sodas options. - A stuffed pita restaurant (I'm sorry I don't know the name!) - Gluttony and Graze, for salads and gourmet hot dogs and burgers - And don't sleep on the cute little kiosk to order Mexican food! I didn't get a chance to check it out, but it's next on my list to try! Though, please note all of these places have different operating hours - though you're mostly safe Wed-Sun. Either call ahead or be open minded when you come in, just in case! Overall, highly recommended. People sleep on it because the outside is unassuming, but you have to try it at least once! read more

The smells in the cafeteria were heavy and offensive. Hard to sit and eat and enjoy your food with those smells in your vicinity.

The Compass is disgustingly DIRTY!! The workers handle the screen that everyone touches, money and everything else in sight prior to touching your food and preparing it!! When nachos are ordered they take two chips with their dirty hands and place them on the guacamole, yuck! For god sake put gloves on before handling food!!! Not to mention it's the worse Mexican food ever. I DO NOT RECOMMEND AND THIS IS A HEALTH VIOLATION! read more

Mexican food was delicious! Fresh hot and service was wonderful. We also love to frequent the bagel shop. Quilts of food and service is refreshing. read more

Booked part of the lounge for a private work event on a Saturday evening. This place is amazing! The service was great, the vibe was festive and creative, and the food/drink options were all delicious. My team of 20 had a wonderful evening. Plus the DJ was a crowd pleaser. We're so grateful for Michaela and the staff at Ecclesia for making this event so special. We hope to make a return trip in the future! read more

Ecclesia Market - Bacon Breakfast Burrito - Bars Near Me - Castle Rock, Colorado

The food is good, but places are always cycling through so there's no guarantee the same food will be there when you come back the next time. The bookstore, Sudden Fiction, on the mid level is why I go to the market. They have very kind and helpful employees and loads of great books for all ages! The bookstore feels cozy and the restaurants feel modern. read more

Overall a unique and interesting repurposing of space. Ecclesia Market hosts a bar, multiple restaurants and a book store within an old church building. I am not reviewing any of the specific vendors in this review but rather the overall space. There are signs around that direct you to the specific vendors as the bar and a couple of the vendors are upstairs and most of the food vendors are downstairs. One thing I felt was missing is the ability to order from your table. Even though many of the vendors have screens you can order from, having a QR code where you can place all of your orders in one location (even though you would have to pick them up from the respective vendor) and pay centrally would make Ecclesia much more appealing. Outside of that this place is cool, it has a great chill vibe and some interesting vendors that span a variety of tastes. read more

This has become the heart of the night life in town as well as a great place to cool off or warm up during the day with food stalls and a communal bar area up stairs. Within walking distance of all the downtown attractions. read more

A amazing place to spend time with family or adults, this is definitely a place for all, hence the name Saints and Sinners. This venue has flower shops , various eateries~ the food is fresh and prepared to perfection. There is a ice cream shop, that taste good a nice crisp evening. You can play board games and card games. You can sit -socialize and enjoy the environment. The venue allows individuals easy access for all. Staff is friendly and accommodating, the atmosphere is warm and inviting. Time slips away from you. read more

This place is a hidden gem in Castle Rock. I visit about once or twice a week! So many great food & drink options, entertainment (great live music on the weekends which is hard to find!), book store, you name it. A beautiful patio that you can hang out on. Great ambiance for both large or small parties. I love how authentic this place is without feeling like a "stuffy" marketplace that tries too hard to make it "aesthetically pleasing" (too many places like that in Denver). This place truly has a community feel. Oh, and so many great events! They even have an awesome nightlife/bar scene when the sun goes down. Would love to maybe have coffee someday!!! Then it really would have it all! Can't say enough good things about this place. Thank you for giving us locals a cute, eclectic place to hang. read more

My first time here when any of the individual businesses were actually open. We came by on a Thursday night for the 'Taylor Swift birthday celebration' at Sinners and Saints upstairs. It was a bit too loud for me (ya, guess I'm old now), so we spent some time downstairs. The Romo's tacos looks good, as does the Arayes Lebanese restaurant. I'm guessing we'll be back at some point to grab some food at one of these places and take it upstairs for a beer, especially if there is some entertainment going on that interests us. read more

Had lunch with a friend and we came here. I like the atmosphere. Street parking. She had never been and she ordered Romo's Tacos while I had Fish and Company. Also ordered to go from Garlic & Spice Kitchen. The associates from Fish and Company and Garlic and Spice were great. The Garlic and Spice guy was amazing. Good place to eat. read more

We came here for Sabrosura de Miami. Had no idea that there was a "market concept." It's great!! We walked into the Sinners & Saints entrance. I love the vibe, and definitely want to go back for a drink. You can also order food from downstairs and eat it in the comfortable, elegant bar area. We walked down the stairs, past the patio, and into a mini food court with four places in one! We had an amazing lunch from Sabrosura, but are planning a return trip to try the other offerings, as well as cocktails at Sinners and Saints. We had cantaloupe agua fresca from Romo's. Yum!! Bit too sweet for me, but very refreshing. There is a separate entrance for the food court and the bookstore. We can't wait to go back and try Romo's, Garlic & Spice, and Fish & Co! There's also a cute little British food place, although I was not enchanted with bangers and mash at the last place I tried them. They do have Yorkshire pudding. Yum! We were thrilled to find this teeny-tiny version of Grange Hall! On a Sunday afternoon, it was quiet and there was plenty of seating. No children at all :) A very quiet, fun place for lunch. Most places do close early, so check before going. read more

This is a favorite place of mine in downtown Castle Rock. The building is an old church renovated into a bar upstairs with plenty of seating, a food court downstairs and a bookstore on-site as well. There is also an outdoor patio to enjoy your food. It's nicely shaded and adjacent to a public sidewalk. I've tried the Fish & Company restaurant and the Cuban restaurant as well. Bother great places! There was a British pantry and tea room that went out of business. Too bad as I wanted to try some of their food items. They're opening a Ramen restaurant where the British pantry was at. They also have a burger joint and a Mexican restaurant too. I will try either of these places sometime soon. The food court area has plenty of seating that feature shared tables. There is also a line of bar stools with narrow table at the back wall of the food court. After ordering and paying for your food, staff at any of the vendor restaurants will bring it to your table. Even if you're choosing to sit outside on the patio. I've also had pleasant interactions with staff whenever I dine at the food court. This is a nice good option for a lunch or dinner. Check this place out sometime! It's diagonal from the fire station. Enjoy! read more

Very nice servers. Food meh. Drinks ok. Not at all impressed with the food. Atmosphere is nice but really can't recommend.

The hot dogs and the tacos are very good as well as the salad have not tried the pitas or Bmans BbQ

What a fun little place this is! We were just passing through Castle rock, and wanted some thing unique. Oh boy did we find it with this historic church full of multiple vendors. Such a cool atmosphere, and we love the fact that we could order creative cocktails, and then put food orders for the different vendors in the building. My husband ended up getting the grinder sandwich, and I got fish and chips. Very yummy! Highly recommend the ahi appetizer. read more

I love the concept of hanging out in an old church, great music and bar with craft cocktails. By craft I mean extremely creative cocktails all made to order. I am most sad they discontinued their homemade bloody mix though....they had the best bloody I've ever put to my lips. It was SO delish with their porcini and jalapeno infused vodka (which they still have) but use a Clamato as the base (gross!) Ordering food was simple though I do wish there were more options but their space is pretty limited downstairs. read more

Arrived prior to 1230 and Bagl was already sold out. We tried Arayes and waited 40 minutes - literally - to get the food. Printer was broken apparently and the kitchen never got the order. I was informed we'd get a sandwich free for the wait, though that was not true. Only place that seemed to be working was the salad/potato place. Not the best experience for $40 and 40 minutes. read more

The restaurants here are so undertrafficked that they are not prepared for guests during their last hour of opening. It's a pity because the food offerings are pretty good. There's a ramen place coming and a lot of variety. Unfortunately, not a whole lot of vegetarian or vegan options though. I think that would really make the place! read more

Ecclesia Market - Inside. Empty chairs and empty tables :'( - Bars Near Me - Castle Rock, Colorado

Tried out Fish n Co this past weekend. Ordered the fish n chips. It was delicious! Breading to fish ratio was perfect, good flavor, not greasy! The tartar sauce was yummy and the "chips"(fries) were great! Not too soft not too crispy. 4/5 of us are there and all agreed! The hubby tried the Street Taco place and got the 3 shrimp tacos. He said it was real good, just surprised at the spice level. We then made our way to the Sudden Fiction bookstore upstairs. Love that place! Huge array of new and used books (as well as coloring books, puzzles, etc) in a great welcoming environment. They also have a small bar area as well for coffee and beer. The owners are great as well, very friendly and helpful. We will be back!! read more

Ecclesia Market - Bars Near Me - Castle Rock, Colorado

Had a great visit to Ecclesia Market yesterday. I love food halls for groups because everyone can get something that appeals to them. I sought out Ram3n and was very impressed. The vegetables were beautifully julienned and everything tasted delicious! Service was quick and friendly. Patio was pleasant in the shade, even on a hot July day. read more

Something for everyone in here! All of the restaurants I have tried here are delicious, fresh and fast! Such a little gem in Castle Rock!

The last 'many' times I tried Fish and Company, it was (is?) the best clam chowder I've had (and I grew up in New England). Today's batch was a little flat tasting... but it's been so good before... I'm hoping this is just an off batch. That said... I paid for 3 bowls. They filled 2 bowls, snapped the caps securely onto the take out container... (Ie a full bowl) then realized they only had enough (scraping the bottom of the barrel) for just a smidge in the third bowl. Instead of saying they only had 2 bowls worth (and offering to refund)... the guy started pouring chowder out of the first two to make three 2/3 full bowls. When asked what he was doing, he said "well, I put too much in the first two". Regardless on the standard 'full' level... this just seemed shady. We asked him to just take the third one back and refund us. They response was disdain. I'll go back cause the kids working the counter are normally great and the chowder is typically much better. But now... I'm sadly, uncharacteristically hesitant. read more

Problem is we didn't order any drinks! We ordered dessert, and three lunch items...Sorry but I won't be visiting anytime soon

What a fun find! Coming back in a week from Wednesday for the art show! Stopped in for a cocktail with a $1 off for shopping at the art festival in today. Great open concept in a former church. A wonderfully refreshing cab sauv blanc with a fresh grapefruit finish especially needed on this toasty day! Very friendly staff whose wives are painted into the glorious heaven/hell, saints/sinners mural. . . they are on the saint's side, thank heaven! read more

Stopped here to try the fish and chips. The fish was amazing! The chips were different and cooked a little long as they were pretty crispy, but the ones that weren't super crispy were really good! I'll have to come back and try another place! read more

Great atmosphere, very cool place with good music and nice ambience. Great drinks and I love the variety of food! Definitely will be back

Lots of food options in this cute little food hall. A nice vibe. You can sit inside or there's outdoor seating available. You can take food upstairs to Sinners and Saints - a fun bar with a cool mural and rotating exhibits of local artist. Also check out the book store and flower shop read more

We absolutely love coming here. Great variety and such a cool ambiance! Dine in or outside depending on the weather.

Would give 4 stars but the seating layout upstairs is complete dogshit tbh Weird placement for a group of two, tall glass tables more like small glass tables that are extremely sketchy Bench chairs is kinda weird, table too small. 8/10 would recommend food read more

Sometime NEW in Castle Rock. 1) Bar, ( Saints and Sinners) with eclectic seating and tables 2) Food kiosks, Mexican, seafood, ice cream, brats. I had oysters and fish and chips ( yum) 3) Pool tables and games 4) Library 5) Gourmet market (FarmGirl) We (7) went on the Dia de los Muertes ( Saturday). It was crowded but manageable. Great vibe. Dancing. Tarot cards. Fun!! read more

This place is so amazingly different. The choices of excellent food are so vast and the ambiance is comfortable. People are actually really engaging with each other as there are not tv's to distract like in most bars, but the focus is kept on personal relationships. It's a special place. read more

Fish and Company is delicious. The bar upstairs is great to. Great place to eat, drink and have good conversation! There was a place that even had a British tea party going on. Sounds like so much fun!!! read more

Wonderful lounge setting in a historic church in downtown Castle Rock! This is a hidden gem. Amazing service and drink options. Bar lounge upstairs and yummiest food options downstairs! A must experience! read more

Jacob the GM was nothing but rude and disrespectful when we came in. He made it very clear from the minute we sat down he didn't want us there. They were closing at 10, we arrived at 9:00, he stated last call was in 10 minutes so I tried to order two drinks he immediately says "no, for you only one" I asked why, and he said "because I said so" with a big grin on his face. After that interaction, we decided we would spend our money elsewhere. I then asked for his business card and the owners and he refused to give me both. Owner should probably start looking for a new GM who cares about the business because he made it very clear he doesn't with the way he speaks to costumers. We went to the whiskey bar down the street and the bartender was nothing but kind and happily served us until they closed at 10. read more

The best place to go for a family day or a date night with your significant other! Best fish and chips in town at fish & company ! Sinners and saints has a very spacious and comfortable setting ( and amazing drinks ). Very impressed with each vendor at this unique location . read more

I had the Plowman's lunch yesterday at the British Cafe and it was great, as was the tomato soup. My wife loved the cheesy waffles. The waffle batter was Yorkshire pudding batter. Highly recommend the cafe. The fish & chips place was gross. They use Pacific cod instead of Atlantic cod, so the flavor is fishier. The chips were really soggy and the fried batter on the fish tasted of oil that should have been changed, but wasn't. I was thankful for Altoids to remove the foul after-taste. They were the worst fish & chips I've ever tasted. Prices were high relative to GB Fish. If you're really in the mood for good fish & chips (or other good things) go to GB fish on Broadway just south of I-25. Maybe this place is usually better, but today it was awful. I'll be surprised if it stays in business. read more

I like the bar area and the book store. The choices for food are still a work in progress. Having a cocktail here is relaxing and fairly quiet. read more
