My girlfriend and I went to Social for happy hour and appetizers about a week ago and had an…read moreabsolutely wonderful time. We originally planned to stay for happy hour, but ended up spending nearly three hours there because we were enjoying ourselves so much. Social is one of those rare places that completely lives up to the hype. From the moment you walk downstairs, the atmosphere transports you to another era. The speakeasy vibe is authentic without feeling gimmicky, and every detail has clearly been thoughtfully designed. It's a super cool speakeasy with a warm, inviting interior that makes you want to settle in and stay awhile. We shared the charcuterie board, which was excellent, and enjoyed both the champagne and the bourbon. Everything was high quality and thoughtfully prepared. Ryan, our bartender, really made the experience special. He treated us exceptionally well, made us feel genuinely welcome, and provided outstanding service throughout the evening. What started as a plan to enjoy happy hour turned into one of the most enjoyable evenings we've had in a long time. It's the perfect place for a date night or simply a relaxing evening with exceptional food, outstanding cocktails, and an atmosphere that's second to none. We'll definitely be back now that we live here in Fort Collins. If you're looking for an unforgettable experience in Fort Collins, Social is an absolute must-visit. Highly recommended!

We were especially excited to discover a great nearby restaurant that welcomes puppies. Several other guests had their dogs with them, too, which made for such a fun and welcoming atmosphere. We ordered the Thai Shrimp Bowl and the Fish & Chips, and both were fantastic. And if you love peaches, you definitely need to check out their Peach Menu! The peach drinks were delicious, especially the one made with cream rum and nutmeg--it was amazing! We were so full after dinner that we brought a few of the desserts home with us, and we're definitely glad we did! What a wonderful find! Delicious food, a great variety, friendly atmosphere, and puppy-friendly, too. We'll absolutely be back!

It was a fun spot and I hope to return!

If you want a late night whiskey or beer or maybe a hot dog this place is fine. But if you want a warm meal then go somewhere else. I don't even think they have the equipment for it. Last two times I accepted the food and said nothing. Thought it was quirky or just my mood. Tonight was just stupid. My daughter and I rode our bikes here and we both ordered potatoes. They were uncooked. Not even warm enough to melt butter. I had mine taken back and reheated and even with the oven and everything they were unable to melt the butter on top of the potato. My daughter didn't complain and just picked at hers while we waited. After spending an extra 10 minutes in the oven the butter was still not melted. I'm not 100% on cooking but I'm pretty sure thats not how it works. They took off $5 for the potato (out of the $25 price) and then the waitress tried to defend it by saying it was the type of cheddar that kept it from melting. I really hope they fail and we can get a competent dive bar here because it is nice to get a late night drink.

It was unsurprisingly busy, but we were able to snag a drink far sooner than expected (perfectly balanced Espresso Martini for me - not too sweet, but not bitter) and made it outside to the chilly balcony as people moved inside to escape the cold. The lights went on and we were graced with the most beautiful view of the downtown in the evening that I have ever seen, while sipping a fantastic cocktail. It's not cheap, but also not over-the-top for the quality of drink you get. The food up here is limited, but they offer a small cheese tray, and some fancy small bar-bites if you're looking for a light snack. I'm always looking forward to their ever-changing seasonal cocktail list!

Mahjong, cocktails & a pretzel? Count me in!…read more Out-of-towner in Fort Collins and stopped by The Neighbor Cafe for Monday Mahjong with FOCO Mahjong -- and what a fun find! The space is large, relaxed, and perfect for settling in for an afternoon of tiles and socializing. They've got a happy hour with cocktails and afternoon bites, which is basically my love language. I went with an Old Fashioned and a warm, soft pretzel with honey butter... and both hit the spot. They also have a full bar plus coffee and tea, so there's something for everyone whether you're here for the drinks, a bite, or a little friendly Mahjong competition. A great local hangout with a welcoming vibe -- and definitely a place I'd happily return to the next time I'm in Fort Collins.

The ambiance is really nice -- I enjoyed the speakeasy-type theme, and the fact that they have a record selection you can ask the bartender to play. These are actual records, with a lot of classics in the mix. The bartender was efficient and friendly, so no issues on staff. Honestly, the restaurant, ambiance, and service were all top notch -- level five. Happy hour cocktails were reasonably priced, and honestly that's the sweet spot here -- come in for nice cocktails at happy hour prices. I also had a couple off their specialty menu; solid drinks, but at $15 a pop they add up fast. I'd suggest getting in early, though crowding didn't seem to be an issue -- it still wasn't busy when we left about an hour and a half after sitting down. My bigger gripe was the food. Loaded tater tots (happy hour) -- fine. The ketchup and ranch that came with them were actually really, really good -- the sauces were the highlight. The tots just needed slightly longer in the fryer. Not undercooked exactly, they just wanted to fall apart and didn't hold up, which made for a messy plate you basically needed a fork or spoon for. Green goddess salad, $15 -- the biggest letdown. We were looking for something lighter since we weren't trying to get full, and on paper this looked really good -- but it didn't deliver. Way too lightly dressed for the arugula, and there wasn't much flavor unless you happened to get a piece of fruit, a piece of cheese, and the arugula all in one bite. It needed crunch -- some candied pecans or another nut would've been really nice -- and just more dressing in general. Too dry, and lacking something. Fifteen dollars for essentially some arugula, and the two of us only got through half of it. Other than that, the experience was pretty solid. Would recommend, and would return.

They are working hard to revamp the original concept and make delicious food from scratch. The double burger with side of tots or fries ($16) or +$3 to upgrade the side to the best hand-battered onion rings is a great value. Make sure to ask for Burger Sauce instead of the usual ketchup and mustard. This is a craveable burger. I love the decor and vibe of this place, with some cool but eclectic memorabilia and license plates from all the states. The dining room is a good size with big and small group seating options. Service is friendly and attentive. It is a sit-yourself situation. The tables and seats are clean (not sticky) and the bathrooms are also nicely clean and well-kept. This place has a lot going for it. I learned that they are having a grand reopening on Sunday June 14, 2026 with an all day happy hour and debuting some new made-from-scratch menu items!

The second we walked in, glasses of rare Oregan-ian Zinfandel were placed in our hands, and the owner gave us a private tour of the estate. We ventured out onto the expansive patio and were greeted with fresh greenery, the smell of fresh cuts of meat sizzling away on the grill, and two friendly estate dogs, roaming the property. After finishing our complimentary Zinfandel glasses, we ventured inside and sat at the hand-built bar. The beer, wine and liquor options were extensive! We opted for a locally brewed beer (Soul Squared's Fore Throw Blonde), and ordered their famous Ocean Burger made with beef sourced from one of the local farmers less than twenty miles away, pepperjack almond cheese, and topped with the reddest, juiciest tomatoes and most crisp lettuce I've ever had! The owners (and manager) are exceptionally friendly, the music selection was fantastic, and the food is something I'll go back for repeatedly. I heard that they have a friend who travels to Alaska yearly and brings back wild-caught salmon - coming to the menu soon! Their steak fajita and tropical kebab dinner also looked like another option I'll be back to try soon! Five stars? No way, I'd give it 10!
