Food Scene

Fantastic authentic Thai food! The service is pretty bad but the food is WORTH IT! Carry-out may be your best option, if you don't have the patience for some shoddy service :) Closed Mondays

Traditional New Orleans cuisine within a short (and scenic) walk...just head east! Get there early or prepare for a wait--either way it's worth it. Don't leave without trying the biscuits or beignets!

Three words: Famous Potato Burrito. Big City runs a "Phat Tuesday" special where you can get any regular sized (they're still huge) burrito for $4. Prepare for the college student line out the door...

Hands down FAVORITE. Nonprofit eatery that features daily fresh, locally-grown, organic dishes funded by donations of patrons. Pay-what-you-can or volunteer for your meal. Humanitarianism at its best.

Drinks & Nightlife

One of the newest FoCo breweries so it's still a hidden gem. Guests get a dollar of pints when they mention "Chewie's Airbnb Deal"! (Chewie = David, and he beertends at the Snowbank taproom!)

Yes, it's the brewery everyone knows, but you have to go. Their tour is 90-min long and second to none!! The five free beers don't hurt ;)

Underground, prohibition-style cocktail bar. If you're looking for something special for your adult night out (or should I say under) the town, this is a great place to start or finish.

Sightseeing

Doable for any fitness level as long as you take breaks! Once you're at the top it's just rolling green hills and mountains to the west, the entire city of Fort Collins to the east.

Just a short but scenic drive west takes to you to the reservoir where you can enjoy swimming, boating, kayaking, paddle-boarding, hiking, and/or some incredible picture-taking. Bring a picnic!

Arts & Culture

Very interesting and carefully curated museum that features artifacts from around the globe. I enjoy visiting with each exhibit change-over. If you have the time to chat, the staff is SO friendly.
