    Triple B's and truffle fries.

    The staff was pretty damn awesome. This is the first time I've been here. Pretty nice bar environment. This burger is great

    I just don't know what it is about this place, but after the third time, I think it's going to be the last for us. In general, it seems like most people and reviews are happy, and yet, we have an odd experience when we go, and more is off than on. It just doesn't seem like this is worth our time or money to keep trying. Determined to not sit on the bar side, which is loud and uncomfortable, we asked to be on the restaurant side. First, know that one table was occupied with six women. The only other 'customer' in the room was a half-eaten pretzel on a separate table. When I asked for a table in that room, I was told that room was closed. When I mentioned again, since others were in there, and since the bar area was loud, another woman confirmed with the hostess that we wouldn't bother the private party. I'm not sure if there was a private party, but it didn't seem like the table of six cared one way or another. Either way, strange back and forth, and we were eventually seated in that room. We then waited a long time for the waitress to show up. When she did, she was quite friendly and apologetic for the wait. Ok, good. We ordered the same dishes we've had before. I got the chimichurri chicken, which had been good on our first visit, and my daughter got the bourbon bacon burger, which she had also liked. We waited a long time for food, but then it finally came out. The first thing we noticed was the giant tomato slice on the burger, even though my daughter asked to hold it. Other than that mishap, the burger and fries were both good. Not so much with my chicken. Overall, the dish was lukewarm at best. Clearly, mine was ready first and sat waiting (and cooling) while my daughter's dish was prepared. Chicken was overcooked, dry, and cold. The corn mash side was fine, but again, the avocado rice wasn't good. Overcooked or maybe undercooked, it's just wrong and shouldn't be included. Service was slow the rest of the night. My daughter's glass sat empty even after the waitress asked if we needed anything. Slow to get the bill, and slow to get out of these. Sorry, Bucket List. Even with a 50% coupon, three strikes and you're out. There are much better places with better food, better prices, and better service nearby.

    Well, as much as I complain about parking, this restaurant is the opposite - very easy to find and the parking lot was a breeze. We were immediately greeted when we opened the door. We sat in the bar which provided a view looking over Castle Rock. The nachos had me curious - instead of the default Jalapeño peppers, Shishito Peppers were used. They complemented the other flavors very well. We settled on the BBQ Bacon Burger and Bourbon Bacon Burger. Both were delicious. The Bourbon Bacon Jam was not overly sweet and the thick cut Candied Bacon was over the top. We really wanted to try a dessert but our the nachos and burgers squelched our hunger. The menu was small, but it will be difficult to make a choice and possibly find a favorite dish.

    My wife and I came here on a Saturday evening and ended up spending $74 on two entrées with two drinks. Nothing special, just a hamburger and a sandwich and no up charged sides. For that money, this place is subpar. The food is just okay at most and the atmosphere is typical. The staff was nice but all around us we heard complaints about missing waiters. Luckily we did not have that issue but considering the other options nearby, we likely won't be back.

    Visited this location again for a Friday night dinner. Ambiance was busy but did not have to wait too long for a table. Ordered the BBQ burger and kids pizza followed by the coffee cake dessert. The food was pretty good, although my burger had mayonnaise on it and I did not recall seeing that listed on the menu. The dessert was rich and decadent although we recalled seeing strawberry listed in the description and did not see it on the cake.

    Came for Sunday lunch- we were seated right away and our waitress -Jennifer was super sweet. I got the Tavern burger with no bun, my husband orders the spicy situation which he loved. He said the chicken and sweet bacon was super tasty. I enjoyed the fried and fried pickle. The burger was ok, not anything different but good. My kids got the cheese pizza and tenders! There's plenty on each serving for the kids and we had to take it home. The place is huge, has plenty of seatings especially on foot all games. They have happy hour events and Wednesday is all you can eat wings. It's good for a casual lunch/dinner/watch the game. There's also plenty of parking g outside

    Date night and we were going to another restaurant but saw this one and decided to try it. He regretted it. Which is surprising since I'm usually the picky one. Warren N. was our server and he was great. The hostess also seated us right away. So service was not the issue. The issue is the level the music was played at and the food taste. The music was loud enough that everyone was shouting to be heard. Just turn it down a little for the ambiance to be less like a bar and more like a restaurant. The food was meh. Beef dip and fish and chips were what we decided on. The beef dip was average and the fish and chips meh. The fries were pretty good which was the best part for the both of us. The fish batter was good - not too thick but the fish was not fresh. It smelled and the taste was - well, tasteless. Won't be going back. Expensive and not worth it. Parking in shared lot and can was crowded with three restaurants sharing the space.

    I got to Yelp in Castle Rock today. And it was for this cute cake shop in the heart of Castle Rock…read moredowntown. And it's none other than the Cake Company. I had a side hustle job assignment in the very neighborhood mid-afternoon. And I simply didn't want to go there, work, leave and get home; I wanted to discover a business I have never been to. I hence googled bakeries and this cake shop came up. According to a little research, this shop opened its doors in January of 2021 by two sisters who are Colorado natives. This element added more excitement to my quick visit I made today. The Cake Company is adorable. From the exterior signage to the interior decors, everything that decorates the whole space matches the theme of the store. Mostly pink and off-white, they not only sell beautifully crafted cupcakes, pies, rice crispies, cinnamon rolls, to name a few, they also sell some gifts such as wine glasses, t-shirts, journal books, tote bags, mug cups, I mean you name it!! I was at awe standing in front of the showcase that displays all sorts of sweets. When one of the ladies upfront greeted me with a very peppy welcoming tone, she kindly said to take my time. I thus allowed myself to be indecisive for several minutes to take my time (LOL!!) Whereas the pies and cheesecakes to the right looked amazing, they also appeared a bit too big and decadent. Since I only needed one good piece of some delicious something, I opted for a cupcake as they aren't as big as the other sweets. Upon asking the same lady which ones are the most popular, she said it was either Berry Tilly or Better Than Sex. My instinct told me to go with the latter: Better Than Sex. The different lady transacted my purchase. She carefully put my cupcake in a single cupcake box. Just so you know, their boxes are tilt-free so your sweet stuff won't tilt inside it (unless you violently shake the box!) The cupcakes are $6 each. And yet, if you buy 6 or more, each price is reduced to $5.50 up to 11. If you buy 12 or more, each price is reduced to $5.00. 20% discount will be added if you purchase 3 dozens. The shop does sell gluten free ones and yet any of the discounts I mentioned don't appear to apply to them. After the purchase, I looked to the left to discover a little entry way to the store next door. It's Lost Coffee. The customers are free to go in and out between the two shops. This means that you can take your cupcake to the next store and have some coffee or tea to pair with it. This is another store that has this symbiotic relationship with their next-door neighbor business. I always find the concept so intriguing. Businesses help each other. As soon as I got back to my car, I immediately opened the box and started to dig in. And wow....I know this is such an ordinary statement but I will say it: this is/was by far the best cupcake I've ever had. It was perfectly moist in the sponge part with the perfect sweetness. After one bite, it was simply impossible for me to stop eating it although I wanted to save some for later. The cupcake thus disappeared so quickly in a matter of 2-3 minutes. Their cupcakes are phenomenal. There is no way you'll buy cupcakes from other places once you have experienced theirs. I am already pondering as to when I should go back. Discovering great businesses bring me joy; this is why I can never stop Yelping.

    I adore this place! So cute, great location in Castle Rock downtown, the friendliest staff, and…read moreout-of-this-world desserts that really hit the spot when you have a sweet tooth! We are creatures of habit and love grabbing a slice of PB pie. Just thinking about it has my mouth watering! Their pies are whipped and light but still so rich and delicious! If you're a PB lover, I highly recommend. They also have other flavors and a large cupcake variety, as well as some cute local goods to browse while you wait. 10/10 would recommend for a sweet treat in Castle Rock!

    Stopped by here on the way to a friends house. It was around 11am and I was lucky there was still…read moresome goodies left. I decided to pick up a box of various pastries: fruit tarts, cookies, croissants, turnovers, bear claws and a baguette. I arrived at my friends' house knowing they don't really like sweets.. but perhaps they would try some after lunch with some coffee. We cut most of the pastries in fours so we can each get a bite (I have me a sweet tooth...) but to my surprise, they loved every bite!.. and they don't even like sweets! The croissants were buttery and fluffy, the fruit tarts were divine and the baguette was perfect. They were surprised this bakery was right around the corner from their house and insisted on the address as they said they'd want to come back to check the place out. I told them there were lucky to have such an amazing bakery so close to their place. Whenever I'm in the area, I stop in for a treat. One to share, two for me! The employees are always super friendly and helpful too. Definitely a place to check out! It will become a favorite!

    Tres Bon! We were the very 1 st one today. Pulled into…read morethe parking lot not sure of their hours. Open 6:30 am on Saturday's. The owner greeted us with that French accent. This adds the extra touch that other bakery can not add. She says lots of choices and she wasn't kidding. The whole bakery case was filled to the rim, shows casing all of their delicious goodies. Ended up getting salmon quiche from the cold case, almond croissant, very beautiful looking blueberry tart and berry croissant. Came out just below $30. We could had table side service but to-go was our option. I could see bunch of pâtissier working hard in the back. ~~ Now I m loaded with extra carbs ~~ Bon appetite!
