My sister found this little Irish spot and I'm glad she did--it's a really cool place with tons of character. The walls are covered in old photos, which gives it that cozy, authentic pub feel. We started with the Brussels sprouts, and those were a win. I love Brussels sprouts when they've got a little sweetness to them, and these hit the spot with a nice flavorful sauce. For my main dish, I ordered the cottage pie (similar to shepherd's pie), and it was honestly really, really good. The flavors were on point, and the mashed potatoes on top were super comforting and well done. Definitely something I'd order again. The only downside was the service--it was just okay. Nothing terrible, but it definitely could've been better and more attentive. Overall, it's a solid spot with great food and a fun atmosphere. I'd come back, especially for that cottage pie. read more

First time back at Coopersmith's since the 90's. Lunch on a quiet Tuesday afternoon. Always nice to see the beer tanks inside reminding you that this is one of the original micro breweries. See pic of the their story. Had a pint of Poudre Pale Ale. Excellent beer. Food was better than I expected. I had a Rueben with fries. Strong choice. Others had the pub burger and turkey wrap. All the lunches were a hearty size. Service was friendly and efficient. Prices fair. read more

Place is cute and calm. The pricing and food menu is not cheap and it's fine but nothing fancy. Our server was very serious but attentive. Would probably not come back just because it's not for us read more

10/10 experience at CooperSmith's last weekend! CooperSmith's poolside is back! Had a fantastic Saturday night here. Dinner on the shaded back patio was perfect (great views of the square!), and the service was excellent. We spent the rest of the night playing pool at their Poolside location. It's clean, affordable, and easily the nicest place to play pool in Old Town. Highly recommend! read more

Went to CooperSmith's after a walk in Old Town and our experience was great! The brussel sprouts were amazing, perfect crisp and bacon! The pretzel was good, but nothing crazy. My boyfriend had the wings which he said were very spicy, but good! Definitely will be returning for happy hour appetizers during the week sometime! read more

4 of 6 patrons ordered corned beef and cabbage on St. Patrick's Day, 2026. Worse meal ever. Corned beef was not cooked and was so tough one could not cut it with a very sharp personal knife. Supervisor or manager would not come to our table to discuss the poor quality of the meat. Waitress said after our complaining management removed the corned beef and cabbage from their dinner special. Horrible meal and service, no one in our group will ever return to such a poorly run business. read more

such a wonderful evening with Stephen and the pesto had some arugula on it and they even gave us honey so Willie was our server and he accepted my attempt for having a fundraiser FUN so thank you read more

Hadn't been to Coopersmith's in almost 30 years! It was always one of our favorite restaurant breweries in Ft. Collins when we lived in the Front Range. So, going through Ft. Collins yesterday, we decided to check it out for old times sake. And, WOW, still looks the same inside, very clean, casual and comfortable. Service was still TERRIFIC, too! And the food & beer, ALL fantastic! Sure, the menu has changed from a quarter century ago, but the kitchen and bar still know how to serve up great grub and beverages. Our schedule didn't give us enough time to really kick back and take it all in, but everything we ordered teased us enough to make sure we'll be back as soon as possible! read more

Always good food. I had the tomato mushroom bisque. Tasty, however I prefer fresh over canned mushrooms and it needs cream. Edit. I brought half of it home and added a equal portion of almond milk. So very good. That's what a bisque should be. Hubby loves their dry spiced wings. The sweet potato waffle fries are nice and crispy and the siracha aioli is killer. We will come back. I'll bring my own almond milk for the tomato "bisque". Haha. read more

Went there on 12/11/24 for lunch. Sat invite bar area. Haven't been here in a very long time. Server/bartender was very friendly. Refills were lacking though. Food was good. Had the Black & Blue Burger and the Rueben. Tasty. Then tried their beer called Jingle Ale. Very good. All the winter flavors. It seems they no longer have the pool side. Cheers! read more

Best fish and chips I have ever had, and I have had fish and chips in a lot of places. Even better: the beer bacon sauerkraut -- out of this world. Skip the chips; sub sauerkraut! One more tip: the Old Fortwaukee is the best light beer I've ever had. Service was fantastic, too. Glorious meal. read more

Great little pub and restaurant. I had the popper burger which was outstanding! A nice thick angus burger covered in jalapeno cream cheese and bacon on a nice soft bun. One of the best popper burgers I've had. I chose the sweet potato waffle fries out of the dozen or more sides that I could choose from. Crunchy on the outside and soft inside, they were perfect! I washed it all down with a Sigda's Green Chili ale. Absolutely great taste, not very much of a bite, but great chili flavor! I will definitely be back the next time in Fort Collins! read more

We've been here before and its been OK. But we came in tonight (Wednesday) for the live music because it's an artist we like - the service was HORRIBLE. We waited a good 20 min after being seated before somebody wandered over to take our drink order. While waiting for drinks people came in who were obviously known to the management - these people sat at the table right next to us. They were warmly greeted and served immediately, while we still waited for drinks. A server checked in with the other table regularly, while we waited for the bartender to finally come over and take our food order. We did get our food which was pretty good bar food. Overall, a very poor experience. The upside is the music was great. read more

Outstanding customer service, good food, live music, patio. Not to mention a really cool building in the heart of Old Town! Hard to find an in-house brewery that also serves good food. Come to find out, they're large supporters and donors to our local community! https://coopersmithspub.com/about/community/ read more

I got the thunderbird. It was spicier than I was expecting but absolutely delicious. Toasted sourdough tore up the roof of my mouth but it was absolutely worth every painfully delicious bite. Waitstaff was patient while we enjoyed the nice weather but also attentive and hospitable. Great patio to enjoy the weather and classic Fort Collins ambiance. Absolutely will come again. read more

I think this was pretty good pub fare. I had Colorado burger and others in my party had the reuben and chicken tenders. Our server, Kiera, was very attentive although the restaurant was not that busy. Really nothing bad to say. This restaurant punches above its current Yelp rating IMO. read more

Glad we chose this place for dinner tonight. The service was great super friendly quick and efficient. The food was very good a great variety of different bar foods. Pretzel was on point but I didn't get that it was green chili sauce side just tasted like a regular cheese sauce. I'm always very picky about chicken salad and this one was one of the best I've had big chunks of fresh chicken not too much mayo and perfectly paired with the nine grain bread. The Ruben was overflowing with meat and the bread was amazing thick cut homemade marble rye. I was told the truffle burger was delicious as well and the chicken sandwich, and we loved the sweet potato waffle fries. Don't pass this place up it's good food, great beer selection, clean atmosphere and wonderful service! read more

While I'm extremely sad that the poolside is gone, I'm so happy they opted to move the dry-rubbed wings over to pubside! We went out for a patio lunch and split the wings and the fish and chips. The dry rub is full of some mysterious wonderful seasoning with a delicate hint of sugar at the end, and the carrots and celery are always crisp and fresh. The fish was well battered and cooked through, perfectly flaky and served with a delicious tartar sauce. I grabbed a happy hour glass of wine and my husband went for their Punjabi which is always clean and has a nice kick of malt and hops, and service was a little slow, but we weren't in a rush. Always a great meal and I love their variety of drink options! read more

Even though it is spacious, Coopersmith Pub & Brewery has that cozy, wooden pub like feel. They have numerous brewed beers that will meet anyone's taste. May I suggest the Blackberry Sour, which is surprisedly smooth for a sour beer. The food was tasty. I enjoyed the appetizer Fried Brussel Sprouts which blends a bourbon flavor with blue cheese sharpness. read more

My husband and I just did a simple take-out order since we were just hanging out in old town, but it was fantastic! We ordered the Black & Bleu and fries. The wait wasn't too long and the food came out hot and perfect. The burger was bursting with incredible flavors that complimented each other so well and the french fries were perfectly crisp! So 5 stars simply for an amazing burger! Will have to come back soon to try other delicious items and sit down in the restaurant. read more

I went here with my daughter. We were seated quickly and our server was very friendly and efficient. I had the buffalo burger and sweet potato fries with fry sauce; the burger was juicy and cooked well. My daughter had a French onion burger and a side of tomato mushroom bisque which she loved. The restaurant was clean and comfortable. It was cold at first, but they closed the patio doors for us and that helped a lot. A fun experience! read more

What a frustrating experience. We were told it would be a 20-minute wait and stood directly in front of the hostess the entire time. She seemed completely scattered and disorganized - like she had no system for tracking who was waiting. We watched in disbelief as people who walked in after us kept getting seated while we remained invisible to her, despite being right there in front of her station. When we finally questioned what was happening, the junior manager was a complete jerk about it instead of apologizing for his hostess's obvious confusion. After 30+ minutes of this nonsense with plenty of empty tables around, we left. The lack of basic organization and professionalism here is astounding. This was one of my favorite restaurants where I would frequently come. I have to say this is the last time I come here. read more

Great food. Fun atmosphere! Enjoyed the trivia game with friends and family. Great service too.

We were visiting Fort Collins and decided to go here for dinner! The chicken tenders are to die for! Have been craving them since! Such a fun environment with great food! On Tuesdays, they have trivia and it was really fun to be out and participate with the whole family! Will definitely go again when we are in town! read more

When visiting my college student we grabbed a bite and a beer. Cute place, good food, good drinks and good atmosphere.

We were seated immediately, our server Lauren came to take our order and we received our food in a timely manner on a day when we had a time crunch to eat lunch and get to an appt. at CSU so for this reason (along with the tasty food) it's 5 stars... before we're ordered I checked with Lauren to see if ordering and eating with the amount of time we had would work and she made it work! Lauren even brought out the check without me asking stating she knew we had time commitments so that was truly appreciated. We ate outside on the patio on a lovely day. It really is a cute downtown and being outside was super chill and relaxing. On another day we would have spent more time enjoying the ambiance. My two issues with my The Black & Bleu Burger was it stated camelized onions and they were served raw- I truly don't like raw onions so those we left on my plate...and the burger seemed a bit too salty for me but I'm pretty sensitive to the amount of salt on food... the flavor was nice and the fries were super tasty. My daughter said her Tomatillo Chorizo Mac & Cheese was tasty and even had enough to take with her and have as leftovers for dinner. read more

Absolutely phenomenal experience, great experience every time. Great pub vibe to it, very good food. The black and bleu burger as well as the four corners burger are both delicious, and they have pretty solid giant pretzels for appetizers as well. The bartender (and sometimes server), Andy, is always very friendly and personable and offers great recommendations on the (extensive) beer menu. Have come here for years and have never had a bad experience, this restaurant is a Fort Collins staple! read more

We registered with the hostess and was told it would be 15 minutes and said she would text. We were standing right near her but we started noticing people after us were getting seated even though they registered after us. My son went up to the register but she took another group. We asked why we never got seated and she said we had to register first. We said we had and were standing right near her. She then said "oh well I text you and you didn't respond" My son had given her his number and looked on his phone but there was NO text. The manager had walked up and my son said how long we had waited and the manager asked if we would like to be seated now. My son stated that we never got a text and the manager said "Do you or don't you want to be seated"? He never apologized about the mixup and seemed testy. We are from out of state and have even been to Coopersmith numerous times when we visit my son and his family and even bought them gift cards for this place for at least 2 Christmas's but how rude they were I know none of us will be back not even my son and family. read more

Had never been to Coopersmiths before but received a gift card from a family member so thought we would give a try. First the good, the beer I tried (Old Fortwaukee lager) was good, my wife liked the Daisy Pinot Grigio wine and the soft pretzel was good - warm and fresh tasting. The service was good with both servers polite and attentive. We were hopeful we would enjoy a good meal as the menu had some interesting selections beyond just the typical Burger fare for most brewpubs. Sadly our hopes were dashed with the delivery of our meals. I ordered the Salmon Orzo which was billed as grilled salmon over orzo with fresh vegetable medley. Unfortunately the salmon was very dry, definitely from frozen and very overcooked. The Orzo was not fresh either, could tell from the color and dryness that it was also a reheat situation. The vegetable medley was thinly sliced zucchini, yellow squash, red and orange bell peppers and onions - vegetables were passable. My wife ordered the prime rib dip sandwich, onions on the side and with mashed potatoes. The sandwich was not good tasting, again tasted like pre-prepared reheat, the prime rib had a bit of a bacon flavor so not sure if that was how meat was prepared, there was no mention of bacon in description and wife doesn't care for bacon (I know who doesn't like bacon right!?) so to be polite she just asked for box to take sandwich away. The mashed potatoes like everything else did not taste nor appear to be freshly made and had chive flavor which again was not mentioned in any description. So overall, nothing tasted fresh and the whole meal was disappointing. read more

As soon as we walked in, we knew it was going to be an amazing experience. From the food, beer flights, and soda flights for the kids, it made it for a wonderful experience for all! I took a star off because the service was a bit lacking, but overall, it was a great time. read more
