Creamy turkey and wild rice stew with butternut squash and lentil salad and a brownie
B D.

Was looking for a new place to try in Fort Collins as I don't get up here often. I went to FOCO cafe due to its rating but also its social model; like SAME in Denver. Good food, pay as you can including a volunteer job for lunch. Nice. Great stew, salad, and brownie. I'll be back. Might try volunteering for my lunch.

a plate of food with chicken, mashed potatoes, and a lemon

FoCo Cafe has one of the most unique models I've ever seen. Giving back tot the cafe in exchange for my meals gave me a sense of satisfaction and belonging. I've eaten dozens of meals there and they've all been healthy and incredible tasting, and the staff/volunteers are very sweet.

Wonderful jammin' during lunch

We were given a gift card from our son and daughter in law months ago. I am not a huge fan of…read moreFrench food, too bland for me. Btw, I have been to France many times on business, have eaton at some of the best restaurants in Paris, really good, just not to my taste. Ok, we went here last Sunday, I wasn't hungry, but my wife was, so we thought we would use the card. Wife ordered a beef dip, one of her favorite sandwiches, not on my top 10 list. I ordered a charcuterie plater, figured we could take it home, which we did. Anyway, I took a bit of her sandwich, and even though I wasn't hungry, I ate about half of it. One of the best sandwiches I have ever had of any kind. Very simple but delicious. Baguette was amazing, beef appeared to be cured somehow, huge flavor, au jus was great. Today I am going to Timnath to meet a friend for lunch and I am going to make a 30 minute detour to get a sandwich for us for dinner. Not inexpensive, but worth it. Life is too short to eat mediocre food, plus I am a stingy with my calories, like to spend them on delicious food. Thank you La Boutique. Sincerely, Bret and Michelle

4.5 stars. Fresh delicious sandwiches at this French deli and market in Fort Collins. My partner…read moreand I made a stop en route to Wyoming. I just love the FoCo food scene and wanted to try something new. The barista made a few suggestions. It was before 11am, so that eliminated all the pretzel roll options on the menu. I decided to go with the Roma. She was right! It was refreshing. I loved every bite. Very bread-forward but clearly a high quality bake. My partner got the French Dip and enjoyed it. There's a few small tables as well as barstools along the wall, but most people ordered to-go. Check out the marketplace items, too. So cute!

It is always a treat to get to go to Spoons :) this location is one of my 2 favorites. the only…read moredownside on this one is parking. If you are coming from the west on elizabeth its hard to get into the parking lot because of how the road has been changed. Spoons has a variety of salads, soups and sandwiches. They are also able to accomodate many dietary needs including gluten free and vegan which is always important to me. Their food is made fresh (and in non covid times when you can try the soups that is really nice!). Their soups change daily but the sandwiches and salads are the same though they do offer specials. I always love the minestrone soup and my family always loves the potato soups. The hummus sandwiches are really good too! They also have gluten free cookies if that is your thing :) The staff is always really friendly and helpful! The atmosphere is comfortable and when with my family i have enjoyed dining in there on several occasions. Reasons for 4 stars : -parking can be difficult if they are busy or shops around them are busy -it would be nice if they could offer some real silverware or cups if you are going to be dining in in an effort to have less waste.

It's like a cheaper but mustier and older version of Panera bread. Idk how you manage to mess up…read moresoup and bread but okay.

These are fake reviews !!…read more Yelp needs to crack down on fake reviews or their business model breaks down. No way are their so many five star reviews after the sale of the Fort Collins icon Choice City. This new rebranding of Choice City is way way over priced, totally destroyed the cool beer taps-Chimay Ale used to be on tap. It's all gone, chill vibe, great sandwiches, deli counter meats. All gone. In its place is a sterile Over priced mess of a restaurant that was decorated with on line IKEA furniture and a terrible Sysco Foods mass produced food product. Awful stay away and PS fire the BS level hospitality consultant that you hired for this. Sorry for the mean review but it is what it is.

Dining with 17 people is never an easy feat, but The Regional was able to accommodate us. After…read morespeaking with one of the managers, we secured a reservation for that same evening. A little preparation on our end helped ensure everything went smoothly. Since The Regional is a farm-to-table restaurant, many items need to be prepared or prepped in advance, so I was grateful to collect everyone's orders earlier in the day. That gave the kitchen time to prepare and made it easier to get everything cooking once we arrived. We were seated off to the side of the bar in a small private area. The restaurant was busy, but not overwhelmingly so. Once we were settled, our server came over, introduced himself, and took our drink and food orders, making sure to associate each dish with the correct diner. After everything was entered, our drinks and food arrived surprisingly quickly. All of the food and drinks were good, but the service was even better. A big thank-you to the manager and our server for accommodating our team and helping make such a large dinner feel seamless.

This is not the usual review. Recently, I dined at the…read moreRegional, and had an unexpected mishap. But first.... the staff is exceptional. Our server was Lillian who is not only pleasant but well versed in the menu - offering suggestions and explanation on dishes or pairings. The atmosphere is homey with vintage style chairs, and the tables are set close but the room doesn't feel cramped We loved the Regional salad and the lamb merguez meatballs. As my main dish, I ordered the Halibut ceviche which is prepared with avocado, a detail that I overlooked and unfortunately I'm allergic to avocados. When the dish was placed in front of me, I was surprised and quickly signaled Lillian. She was concerned that I may have tasted the dish and offered medical attention (Benadryl) and promptly removed the dish. She encouraged me to order another main dish, but I opted for another lamb merguez meatballs which is served with warm bread. At the end of dinner, I was surprised that the halibut ceviche was taken off my bill - unexpected but appreciative gesture. 5 Stars - Hallmark of customer service at the Regional!
