A down-home tavern with ample selection of American craft beers, serving Cajun-American-style menu. They also brew their own beers, which is very cool. Very popular hang-out place, so it gets crowded quickly, and gets really loud also, not a good place for business lunch/dinner but good place to hang out with your family/friends. Food portion is huge, and the service was pretty good. read more

Had happy hour: Service: 3 star (forgot to double wings), otherwise very attentive. Hostess was very helpful. Wings: 5 star: fantastically smoked. Get them Nikki's and ask for the sauce flight. Etaufee and grits: 2 star, not worth ordering Catfish nuggets: 3 star, nice dipping sauce (raumoulade?) Taco: 3 star, standard House wine at $3 was as impressive as one would expect in a beer brewery. For suds fans, I'm sure you'll enjoy! read more

Service was not acceptable. New Orleans themed food was very good but otherwise not great. Management was apologetic but that is not a substitute for our "forgotten" order. Will reluctantly try again for fish and chips. Hope I can generate a better review next time. read more

Wish this last visit was better. When I first ate here about 10 years ago, it was bomb, but more recently it's not not like it used to be. The fried pickles are my favorite, but still not as good as they used to be, as they kind of lack flavor or salt or something. This last time I ordered their Turkey croissant sandwich. Not what I had planned to order, but was exactly what I wanted at that moment when I saw it on the menu. A refreshing Turkey sandwich, on a hot day, with Swiss cheese, tomato and avocado on a fluffy croissant. It arrived at the table as a hot sandwich...what? The Turkey was dried out from being on the grill, the little cheese that was there was melted and I could not taste it at all and the croissant was warm, hard and dried out. I was disappointed as soon as it arrived at the table. I also never order sweet potato fries, but decided to change it up, and they were just ok, not super hot and kind of wilted, not crispy. I would visit again if I'm in the area, because I don't want to give up on this place just yet, as I loved it in the past. Crossing my fingers! read more

Oskar Blues - Fried Pickles...definitely worth a try! - Bars Near Me - Longmont, Colorado

Used to love this place but see it slowly going the wrong direction. Tonight was a perfect example of that. Walked into a 30 minute wait at about 7pm; no big deal it's Friday night. Come to find out there were at least 10 tables inside and about 10 tables outside sitting cleaned and open. I asked the host why and he said the kitchen was short-handed and small?? Friday night at one of the more popular places in a town of 100,000 people with a growing national beer brand and they can't get their kitchen in their flagship restaurant in order? Hoping for better, this place needs to be good, it's a staple in the Longmont good scene. read more

I have to say, this place was awesome! Everything from the old school arcade games to the service was amazing. The beer was tasty as always and the food exceeded my expectations. Pro tip for any servers out there. When your customer has kids, you will win them over instantly if you ask them if they want to get an order placed for them right away. This is exactly what our server did. Best customer service we have had in a very long time at any restaurant. Apart from the excellent service, our food was delicious and reasonably priced. I ordered the chicken Bahn Mi sandwich and let me tell you, they nailed it! I have been on a big Bahn Mi obsession lately and this sandwich did not disappoint. My wife ordered the chicken fried steak and I was lucky enough to try that out as well. It was perfectly cooked. Overall, if you are looking for tasty food and good beer this is the place to go. read more

Oskar Blues - Bars Near Me - Longmont, Colorado

WORST EXPERIENCE EVER HERE: Decent musicians playing WAY TOO LOUD & right by hostess. Couldn't hear her at all. Tried earplugs & then I couldn't hear my date! Fries seemed to have been fried, allowed to get cold & fried again. Waitress kindly brought come Cole slaw. It was awful & spicy. Burger kind of dry. We both had their burger & beer special. The beer was okay. The peach cider was good. This is definitely NOT Oskar Blues as I remember it from last year. read more

We have loved this place since it opened. Our most recent visit, however, wasn't up to par, and it makes us worry they're going downhill. First off, we are all for giving grace during a pandemic. Of course, restaurants have had to adapt and change during all of this covid weirdness. However, OB has shrunk their entire menu, removing many of their staple items which defined their brand (ie: all of the Cajun stuff, pizza). The food that remained is the same stuff you could find anywhere- burgers, sandwiches, and salads. They've also remodeled, removing all of the bright, colorful kitschy artwork and junk from the walls, leaving it pretty bland inside. It could be any corporate chain. The BBQ was under seasoned and desperately needed salt. Same with the fish and chips. The salad was fresh and very good. Of course, the beers that remain are delicious, as always. Service was great. Leaving the restaurant, we all felt sad. This didn't feel at all like the OB we know and love. Here's hoping that as covid restrictions loosen, and things go "back to normal," that their menu will expand and go "back to normal," too. read more

Terrible spot. Service took forever, waitress a bitch, recommended a chicken sandwich that was maybe 3oz of chicken. Fell apart when I ate it , shit food and service don't come read more

Big Oskar Blues fan. This location is unique. Beer wise, I like that they aren't exclusive. They do have other breweries on tap..although I don't know why you'd bother . Food wise. I love the southern flare they have going on, but sometimes they miss the mark. read more

Seated right away at lunch time on a Saturday. Waited on immediately and put order in. Great selection of wonderful beer. The Grilled Steak Salad was as good as it gets; cooked just right and tender and tasty as I've ever had. The fish and chips and Chuburger were very good. $70 tab for 3 adults with 2 beers not too shabby. read more

Amazing Staff and the food is always spot on. Tons of beer to choose from as well. I always have to get the fried pickles and the happy hour hot chicken sliders. All their burgers are great too. read more

Great food and atmosphere! Sweet potato fries are excellent and service was wonderful. I dropped my silverware and my waiter brought more without me even asking. We can't wait to bring family and friends here. read more

OK OK OK.... Food: GOOD! Beer: GOOD! Service: Excelleeeeent!!!! The property is spacious, busy and cool! I love the back patio with all of the lights lit at night, I could easily spend an entire evening back there! THE STAFF. Man. They felt like my buddies back home in Cali. Sweet, humorous, witty individuals....who love beer! And for the love of God, is it a company standard to be attractive? Every male that works in this place is hotter than Hell...are you hiring? LOL! Alright, enough of my libido. The food was scrumptious! I started out with the fried pickles and a "Game of Jones" stout. The beer was smooth and sweet with an elevated alcohol content, WOOHOO! I don't believe I can return to circle cut fried pickels again...here, they serve them as spears and they're thoroughly breaded. I'm spoiled now! For my entrée, I decided on the Silo Burger....WOW. Beef patty with pulled pork, bacon, cheese and hot sauce stacked on top and side of sweet potato fries. NEED I say more? If I didn't live in California, I'd be at this place on a weekly basis. Keep doing what you do! read more

Was visiting Longmont for about a month and this was a go-to spot. Love Oskar Blues beer, more specifically the G'Knight, Old Chub and Can O Bliss series. They have great live music that plays several nights each week and the vibe is really laid back, which is right up my alley. Was advised not to eat their food by several people in the area who have told me their kitchen is disgusting. Usually if one person tells me then I will write it off but not when nearly everyone tells me. The beer is cheap, $5 for 8+%IPA, which is nearly two beers worth of alcohol. The reason for the 3 stars is the food situation and the staff. If I could use a word to describe it overall, awkward. For instance, I gave a bartender a nice tip one night then came back a week or so later and he proceeded to tell me that he wouldn't give anyone a free beer just because of a nice tip. Not sure if he had profiled me by my looks and expected me to ask him for a free beer or if that is just common conversation for him but needless to say I made sure to get the other bartenders when I came back the next time. Also, it seems to me that most of the time I am in there, there are about 4-5 females working their asses off in this place and 17 (exaggeration) others standing around doing nothing at one end of the bar. They also have private conversations and giggle amongst each other which makes it awkward not knowing if they are laughing at you or not. If I ever went back, would definitely just get a beer and either head upstairs or outside away from any and all staff. read more

I love OB but I need to give them a sad face because my take out order was a bit lacking. I ordered extra crab cakes with my appetizer, paid for them, & didn't find any in the bag. I also asked for two kinds of dressing for my side salad but only got one. I was a little bummed. Maybe next time :( read more

We were suppose to be out hiking but the weather turned dark, rainy, and cloudy so we took the opportunity to explore the Boulder area instead. We were excited to see an Oskar Blues and decided to stop for some beers and an appetizer. The outside and inside are decorated pretty cool. It's got a rustic brewery feel with a modern bro twist. First impression was that this is a cool hangout bar. The happy hour menu looked pretty cool with decent prices. Lots of yummy southern inspired eats like cheddar grits and shrimp, fried oysters and catfish, man I was getting pumped. We took a seat at the bar and the bar tender took 5 minutes to acknowledge us despite there being a solid 5-7 people total at the bar. We asked him for a food menu ans he looked annoyed and told us to wait. He finally brought us a menu after another 5 minutes.... My patience was wearing thin especially considering he only managed to fill 2 beers for other people the whole time we were waiting. The final straw was when 2 guys came in and sat at the bar and the bar tender runs over to them and says "Gentlemen! How about a drink!" almost immediately. I wasn't about to waste anymore time on a place where this guy was so blatantly bad at his job and ignoring us while catering to some guys who just walked in. We walked out. I will not be returning. read more

I really want to like this place. Honestly, I do, but every time we're going there for dinner I wish we were going somewhere else. The beer here is great, though the waitstaff hardly ever knows what to recommend or how to answer any questions based around it. Music is usually worth going for, but don't come here if you're looking to have an actual conversation with the people you came with, it's very loud at all times. The food is decent -The BBQ options smoked in house are the best way to go-, but the service is (more often than not) just beyond terrible. I try to make it a point to only visit places with bad service if the food is stellar. Here's a little list of varied "service" we've received: - Had an 8 person group, were told we couldn't even sit down until our waiter came in (they weren't scheduled to work for another 15 minutes) - After the Bolder Boulder, everyone in our group ordering beer got carded, including the people obviously over 40, which was strange, but...ok...sure. One woman in our party had just lost her ID that day at the race, and was consequently denied a beer. She's in her 40s and looks it. - On at least a couple occasions we've been ignored for over 10-15 minutes. - Appetizers for a group of 7 came without plates. When we asked for plates they brought two. When we asked for a plate for everyone the guy was surprised, and still shorted us a plate. - Drink refills for the entire table have been neglected multiple times (in cases of water and tea, even until the end of the meal) Those are the main ones I remember at the moment, I'll add more in later. It's truly almost EVERY visit, it's a miracle to get decent service at this place. TL;DR: Beer: Great, but don't expect to have any questions answered about it Music: Fun! Loud! Food: Order BBQ options, the rest is decent Service: Laughable read more

Great beers and food! Came in on 9/15 around 4pm, really enjoyed our time but Ashley R, our waitress was MIA at times, I saw all the other staff and got sauces and dips from them because our server seemed really busy and couldn't table touch as often as we'd liked. read more

The beer is okay but in a town full of great beer it barely ranks anymore. But the real disappointment is the food, it's slipped from mediocre to chain restaurant quality. It's clearly prepared by line cooks who just assemble or finish dishes that show no care or pride. The kind of thing you might tolerate at lunchtime because one of your coworkers chose this place as the exotic option over Applebee's. I'd give a miss until they lift their game again. read more

So disappointed! We couldn't wait to sink our teeth into favorite items on the menu once they re-opened. Unfortunately all our favs were taken off the menu. No Yaya Chicken, no chop chop salad, no "old chub" wings, no nachos. The new menu is just like every other restaurant in town. We will not be back. read more

This is one awesome brewery. I'm so grateful to them for putting on an amazing beer fest like Burning Can and giving me an excuse to come here every year. My favorite beer here is Gubna and it goes really well with their shrimp po boy. I've only been here on the weekend and there's a wait to get a table but I think it's well worth it. The interior and patio is very spacious which makes this an ideal place for a large party. There's a live band that plays blues upstairs and the music is so good that I can't help but dance until they close. read more

I had such high hopes for this place. Unfortunately service has served me very slowly all 3 times. Food is decent. Bbq is good, portion sizes are huge. But I'm really there for the beer!! They really do have a great beer list, changes a lot, variety of IPAs. I guess in comparison to some other big name brewpubs and such I've been to, I expected a little more out of them. They've got some fantastic brewing companies and atmospheres to compete with. Will I be back? Sure! But it's not on my top 5 breweries to check out with friends in town. read more

Oskar Blues - Fresh tasters with friends! - Bars Near Me - Longmont, Colorado

We've been to the downtown Denver location and enjoy the food and drinks a lot, so after my daughter had a softball tournament nearby we decided to check out the Longmont location. The food is well priced and large servings. My daughter and I both had the burger of the day, which was cooked exactly as we ordered it. She had regular fries and I had sweet potato fries and they did not disappoint. My husband had the chicken nachos which were huge - enough so that he brought home half of it. They have an extensive beer list, including many other Colorado brewery offerings, but I truly was there to drink Death by Coconut. I have yet to find a better coconut flavored beer! Service was great, as was our whole experience. read more

I came for the wings...I stayed for the beer. OB has become one of my favorites. Their wings are among the best I've EVER had. 2lbs of their Smokin' Wings hits the spot each time. They are both fried and smoked. CRAZY flavor. Then they are coated in either their Habanero Blues Juice hot sauce, or Chub Juice hot sauce. I haven't figured out which I like more, so I go for 1/2 & 1/2. The beer selection is insane. My fav is the Deviant Dale's. If they ever have it on the Nitro tap, you're in for a treat! I have been lucky enough to have nibbles of food off my friends plates, but I keep coming back to the wings. I wish I didn't live 45 mins away! read more

It took almost 30 minutes to get it. She explained there was a computer problem. We sat for the whole 30 minutes with no idea why we were not getting the appetizer. Neighboring tables got food. They had ordered before us. read more

I frequent this restaurant quite often with my wife and 2 year old. They have great food and pretty good service. Sometimes the parking lot makes it look too full because the amount of cars there are but they have a lot if seating and have always had room for us three. The 24 inch pizza is all that and more. My brother and I ordered it because we were hungry... It came out on its own stand. It would have taken up our whole table. We ate the whole thing but only to prove we were men. We had to be rolled out of the restaurant :-D Two thumbs up for sure! Btw: check out there other restaurants and tasting room. All close. Chub burger Cycle hops Tasty weasel read more

Oskar Blues - Mac and cheese jam - Bars Near Me - Longmont, Colorado

I'm a fan of Oskar Blues fooderies and brew so I was looking forward to visiting this spot. Let's just say the food was really good but the service left me pretty unsatisfied. The service - We visited on a Sunday and it was relatively slow so we were sat immediately but it took ages for our server to finally greet us and wasn't any different during the whole, almost 2 hours, we were there. It took seriously forever for him to come over and he never once checked to see how our food was. The food - Great! I ordered the Turkey Reuben and my boyfriend ordered the Sunday special of the "Walk of Shame" - 2 biscuits and gravy, fried chicken tenders, smoked brisket, bacon, crawfish etouffee and grits. We also ordered the Banana Pudding, because we can't ever resist dessert! We might be back, hopefully with a better server! read more

Is there anything better than Baked Mac'n'Cheese? I highly doubt it, and Oskar Blues has fantastic Baked Mac'n'Cheese! We sat out on the patio on a Thursday afternoon for lunch. They have a huge patio, complete with beer keg fountain, horseshoes and a kids sandbox (weird, but cool). This place has an extensive beer list, inclusive of other local and specialty brews, not just those made by Oskar Blues. The smoked porters came out with smoked sausage garnishes, ha ha ha! Sadly, they were all out of the special of the day, Chicken & Waffles, Noooooooooo! Minus one point for you. How are you out of the daily special by lunch time??? I had been really looking forward to that. My Jambalaya sandwich paled in comparison :( But, the artichoke dip appetizer came with some interesting fried green tomatoes, which was cool. read more

Was passing through Longmont on my way to Boulder with a friend, and as we were headed to the Diagonal we contemplated whether we should stop where we were for an early lunch or to have a late lunch in Boulder ... we decided we were hungry enough to stop then and there, and Oskar Blues happened to be right there so there we stopped. I do find the official name of this joint, "Oskar Blues Homemade Liquids and Solids" funny and appropriate -- it sort of sets your expectations low, doesn't it? The Southern-Cajun-burger joint mish-mash was a bit of a surprise -- I was thinking pub fare, but whatever ... I guess it is that whole blues thang. I had the BBQ pulled pork sandwich with a side of sweet potato fries. The sandwich was all right, but the fries were phenomenal. Super crispy on the outside, and melt-in-your-mouth creamy on the inside. Yum. There were also a couple of pickles for garnish on the plate -- those were kinda tasty too -- I'm thinking they were brined in-house. My friend ordered some sort of chicken sandwich with the crab-corn fritters. Now those fritters sounded delightful, but they turned out to be heavy and bland (but maybe that's how they're supposed to be? I know next to nothing about Southern food ...) My friend said that they could have used some sort of dipping sauce. We had half-pints of beer ... and their half-pint glasses are kinda cute (but not really cute enough to make up for the fact that you're paying what you'd expect to pay for a full pint). It was nice to be able to get an OB beer that isn't distributed everywhere, though. I guess I'd come back, but I'd just order a basket of sweet potato fries and maybe try another experimental beer ... read more

Oskar Blues is definitely not for everyone, but as a beer-heavy restaurant, it's absolutely a lot of fun. They have a fantastic selection, so much so that it would be overwhelming for the uninitiated. The decor is unique, to say the least. Pictures, posters, and other interesting wall decorations pepper the walls, and the bar area has a vast collection of beer taps hanging from the ceiling, reminiscent of stalactites in a cave. I had the Meta Margarita to start, which combines some of my favorite flavors: an Oskar Blues IPA, Aussie hops, tequila, and grapefruit juice. I wasn't terribly impressed with the burger I tried, which featured pulled pork on top. It was just ok. That being said, the sweet potato fries were fantastic. Whether you're a casual beer drinker or an avid imbiber, I would definitely suggest a flight. It's a great way to sample some tasty beers, and it gives you an idea of what you might like to order in the future. (My favorite of the flight I chose has to be Du Ciel Peche Mortel, a tantalizing, smooth imperial stout that has a great coffee flavor that makes you wish you were having it for breakfast). Perhaps the best beer I tasted was the Southern Tier Brewing imperial stout: Choklat Oranj. It's so chocolatey, you can smell the notes of chocolate emanating from the glass. It reminds me of Hershey's syrup. The beer goes down smoothly, and the hint of Orange is noticeable without being overpowering. I think it would pair perfectly with a gooey brownie. I would be remiss if I didn't mention the bluegrass band playing tunes throughout our meal. They swelled in number as we ate, and their collection of banjos and guitars definitely completed the southern-esque atmosphere. read more

I have to give Oskar Blues a 3. Mainly the atmosphere was the best. The place was busy and our food got caught at the grill to long and came out disappointing.

I tried. I tried again. The only reason I ate here is because it was convenient to where I was staying. Yes, the beer is legendary. Don't go for their food. I had a wild mushroom ravioli, with pesto sauce and opted to add the blackened shrimp. I was hoping blackened met tasty with Cayanne and other flavors. Oops. Blackened meant the shrimp were singed on the outside a bit. That's about all. There was no Cajun, Cayanne, nothing to tingle the pallet, to offset the oppressive pesto. By oppressive, I mean that pesto can have such deep flavor. But this was just olive oil and puréed basil. read more
