    Soup of the day - during a blizzard
    Dan D.

    Perhaps similar to a tricky golf lay-up shot, Murphy Creek needs to be many things for many different people: it's a golf course clubhouse; it's the local restaurant for the MC subdivision; it's a tournament course, it's an event venue. It's underneath the Buckley AFB flightpath... Wait, there was COVID-- and now there's not. Why aren't you open during a blizzard? Umm... You get my drift. This is a *great* clubhouse, restaurant and patio with outstanding people who really do care. Give MC Tavern some grace and you will be well rewarded.

    Love this place!

    My favorite bartender April having a great ST.Paddy's day I absolutely love this place and I'm in the process of buying a house here. This community is awesome and great people.! The place has great lighting from the golf course. Just wish they had some blinds during sunny/snowy times this is us Colorado after all. My fiancé a shared the steak quesadilla and it was amazing juicy steak fresh cheese and pico. What more can you ask for! Definitely a place I'd visit again and actually looking to move to in this community.

    Love the cozy chairs and fire place.

    Exceptional food and drinks. Everything is the chef's home recipe and that's why I think it tastes better than anywhere else.

    A very nice local restaurant with good food and friendly service. Try the Green Chili ... you won't be disappointed.

The restaurant is your homegrown wing place with plenty of decorations around the walls supporting all the home teams. I got the golden flame wings and one order was good for 2.5 meals! The jalapeño poppers were super delicious as well. I will certainly keep this place on the radar. What a fun vibe!

    Dollar store Basho says:…read more Plump wings swim in sauce Garlic fries cannot be beat Hot spot Golden Flame I was visiting some friends in the area and was excited to finally try Golden Flame. They did not disappoint. Wings were huge. I could only eat four and took the rest home. The buffalo sauce was proper and plentiful. Much obliged. Several varieties of fries are offered. The garlic fries were out of this world. I couldn't stop shoveling them in. While I wasn't interested in the beers on tap, they have a fair selection that includes locals like Great Divide and Launch Pad. Staff were friendly and helpful. Place was reasonably clean. Wings are stupid pricey like everything else these days. Choose wisely. Good value here. Golden Flame has landed in my rotation, which stretches from Golden to Aurora. 4.5 stars.

    So I visited Toley's a few times the past couple of months as I like their food (the tomato soup is…read morea fave) but I genuinely like the events they host. Music Bingo and Trivia Nights are quite fun and what keeps me going back. It is sad though that it seems with each return visit, the service gets worse. Tonight was special because 1) I was struggling to find a server to get my initial order placed, 2) my food order is often delivered without the basics (napkins and silverware), and 3) I was never offered refills or the chance to place an additional order. What made it extra special was that one of the ladies in the group had an automatic gratuity added to her order (20%) while the rest of us were given the option to choose our tip amount. Without explanation and no forewarning. Now normally I am very generous when it comes to tipping. I recognize the hard work that goes into serving customers but with the low level of service, i didn't feel 20% was deserving. I want to like this place, especially with the "new" management, but attentive service is the most important in the industry and really has an impact on customer experience. Hopefully Toley's can do better.

    This place has changed hands several times over the years and it has had its up and downs. We had…read morebeen there several times and honestly stopped going after being way overcharged several times. A week ago we heard that it has a new owner again so we stopped in to check it out. Some things have changed such as they no longer have pool tables and adding more seating. The menu has changed and it looks burger forward which I am here for. We were there on a Tuesday and they have a special 2 crunchy ground beef tacos for $3, so we tried them and they were pretty good. We will come back and try the burgers and see what else has changed.

All tap drinks were disgusting. Food? Tastes like frozen stuff you'd get at kroger. Didn't finish any of it or take any leftovers with us. We left still hungry. Service was fine.

That being said sometimes the employees get too comfortable and don't know the proper way of conflict resolution. From the start I didn't get a good interaction from her. I ordered take out because I like their wings. I tried to just order 6 but she said I had to order 12. With no explanation. once i received the bill i noticed that their tips start at 25% not the standard 20%. Lastly i noticed on my bill i saw an up charge of 50cents. I inquired about it and her Kurt answer was "it's in the menu ". Just by giving someone a short answer "it's in the menu" doesn't resolve anything. Yes it's only 50 cents extra but it's the point of the matter. So I retorted "not everyone reads the whole menu especially when looking for food and not side notes somewhere. All in all the wings were good as expected. I usually come here on Wednesdays and I see why.
