Re: “Tam O'Shanter Pub”
This bar has been around for longer than most have even lived here... Although it has had it's "hay day" many years ago... it really is still a fun little place. It is a small and cozy. The CO Natives come and go (not on a regular basis but on and off... to sort of just "check in") old clientele will confess they take for granted it will just always be around... The food is fine... It is by no means fine dining but good grub... it is pub food for goodness sake. The new owner is actually really nice... Students from Colorado Tech University and the Tech corridor used to pack the place but with the quieting down of the Tech Corridor (G o G) things are quieter... Used to get some semi-pro baseball teams who didn't want to stay near Sky Sox... they were loyal to the place actually. If you haven't been in here... you really should try it... It is one of the many lovely old bars in town... kind of like Benny's, The Dublin House, The Old Dutch Mill, Navajo Hogans, and of course The Hill Top Lounge. Each which were once upon a time "THE PLACE TO BE" and folks drove from all around town to squeeze in to these places... The old timers still pop in... curious newbies pop in and of course there are the colorful customers who give you something to look at and laugh at. Go in and say hello.... these old drinking establishments are worth visiting to ensure they don't disappear. If you don't like "old hole in the wall bars"... maybe you should stick to the national chain establishments.... Support your local small businesses and keep an open mind... they aren't FANCY in any way....

Re: “Tam O'Shanter Pub”
Greatest bar/ Pub In Colorado springs! I don't know why this guy is giving such bad review for? Maybe he was to drunk to remember what happened. When I was there with some friends we were treated great and served with the best service by the owner lady Denise. I will be going back there again real soon!

Re: “Acme Smoke”
Wow. Big buds and the best clones in town. I love this place, the girls are nice and very knowledgeable. They care and it shows in their product.

Re: “JP Wellness”
Went there and the cozy feeling set in right away. Todd was very friendly, patient. He explained everything in the shop and he took the time to ask what did I like and why, then made recommendations. Like the first time discount thing and then the raffle is a good idea. I really got hooked up that day and made my home store J P Wellness.

Re: “Bean Bandit - Circle”
Excellent traditional Mexican food! Good prices and good service. I have been going here since the 80's with my family.

Re: “Bijou Wellness Center”
I really like the medicine they offer. Plenty of crystals on the buds instead of the owners taking them and making hash! Good quality dense nugs.

Re: “Mountain Shadows Restaurant”
I love this place, but always take a couple of Imodium after eating...something in the grease simply needs a little firming up not to be cramp producing.

Re: “Mountain Shadows Restaurant”
Best Breakfast Burritos anywhere. The geen chile to go is a must for those chile snacks at home or for parties! This is the place where good food and good service comes together.

Re: “King's Chef Diner - Bijou”
Heard good things about King's Chef and decided to pay a visit the other night. Had a burrito that was insanely bad. Overcooked eggs, burnt potatoes and spongy oily meat. It was truly fucking disgusting. 2 bites was all I could take. I told the waitress how bad it was and she "well, that's too fucking bad, huh?" Really? This is how staff speaks to customers?? This place truly does suck. It sucks in the worst way and I will never be back. Definitely NOT RECOMMENDED.

Re: “Maggie Mae's Restaurant & Pub”
I stopped into Maggie's while my dad was having eye surgery. I come from a family of waitresses and this place was very much like the place my grandma and mom worked at for years. Although it would be considered dated by today's standards the hostess and waitresses were very nice. The food was really good and was served quickly. The prices sre very reasonsble for the amount of food you get. I would recomment this place to anyone!

Re: “Smiley's Bakery and Café”
This is the real deal homemade kind of place...best pancakes in town. Deciding what you want is not easy because it is all fresh and tempting. Perfect place to relax and enjoy.

Re: “Smiley's Bakery and Café”
Tried to get a good lunch to go. Waited 30 minutes for a sandwich. Only one person actually working in the kitchen, 3 boys running around not sure what they actualy acomplished. One keept washing his hands in the floor cleaning pucket and then trying his hands of his pants to go on a costumer table. Hair flying all over the food and service. Finaly got my lunch to go. The salad was old and tasted nasty totaly expired already, so was the bred, to cover that up the bred over butterd and greacy, the, non of the ingridience where fresh or properly assembeld together, the whole sandwich I waited 30 minutes for tasted like soap since most of the items on the sandwich have long expired and should not be served to anyone anymore. Well that was my first and my last expierence there. Its so sad to see nobody takes home cooked meals serious and actually present what they promis.

Re: “The Healing Canna”
Not only do these guys have some of the nicest product I've ever seen, they have bent over backwards to accommodate my disability. Give them a try.

Re: “Omelets Etc.”
I ate at Omelets Etc for the first time yesterday and it was exceptional. i love the family owned restaurant feel. The food and service were exceptional! My coffee would never get half empty before someone was filling it up. Great food too, the green chile was great. I think I found my new hometown cafe.

Re: “Trinity Brewing Company”
Trinity is a great place. They have high quality food and the cooks do it right. My favorite is the Griz! and if they've added the Buffalo Mac to the menu then you got to try it. The owner, whose root is in brewing, knows his craft and they make many great beers but he knows other guys brew great beer too. So he also offers the best beers from around the world for his customers to enjoy. I'm living in Germany for the next few years but look forward to returning home and sitting again at that funky counter.

Re: “The Springs Church”
Phenomenal church. Non-judging, supportive group of people. A real family.
