Larry McBreartyNovember 29, 2015Foolish Craig's is a must do in Boulder! They have the best bloody marry i have had in Colorado I had the Fried Chicken Eggs Benedict with cheese grits & it was amazing! 5 star service! Great Place!
Brenda HoltAugust 23, 2012Spinach and tomato eggs Benedict is worth traveling 1900 miles to have!! The best, I had them a year ago on a visit and have not stopped thinking about it. Repeated a year later was FABULOUS too!!- Jill s.February 2, 2016Fried chicken Benedict with hollandase AND sausage gravy with biscuits hostess of English muffin. #omgdelicious
Paola MckeeSeptember 4, 2017Tried to get a table at snooze for my cousins wedding brunch but the wait was too long. Foolish Craig's next door accommodated 10 of us! The food was delicious and the service was amazing!
Nathan WrightJune 16, 2017Warm and friendly service, unpretentious atmosphere. Stopped here mid-afternoon for drinks and was jealous I wasn't eating brunch. Definitely coming back.
Maximum BurgerMarch 3, 2019Pretty good corned beef hash breakfast. Relatively quick service on a busy Sunday
Erin GSeptember 17, 2016They told us it would be 45 minutes for brunch and it was 15 -- way faster than Snooze next door. Get one of the specialty mimosas!
Corn beef hash is awesome. Also, if your a fan of Bacon, this is the place for you.
Susan KingSeptember 14, 2015Everything looks great! I had the Mexicali omelet w/ grits! Lots of gluten-free options.
The crepe cake is why I go, but I have always enjoy every meal I've had. The staff is friendly an on top of it all.
- Kevin LillyJanuary 4, 2016Had the Breast O Pesto crepe... Was absolutely delicious and went great with the cheesy grits!
Pat PattonJanuary 26, 2016Great place to go for a drink. Wish we could have stayed for a meal. Will definitely be back.
Katie BraunApril 18, 2011visiting from CHI. went 2x 4 brunch. great food always. 2nd visit had tin foil in my nutella crepe & got no discount or replacement crepe. not cool.
Mindy KinnamanJanuary 15, 2012The food is amazing, and you get great portions. Best cheese frogs I've ever had!
Tom EganAugust 5, 2011The BLT w/ gauc is awesome. Definitely go with the side of pasta salad as well.
Stefan D.March 27, 2015The French toast was a disaster and also not cheap for the size. Also the waitress didn't have her best day I guess.
- Alana KoenigFebruary 10, 2014Yummy bacon Benedict, the cheesy grits on the other hand are very bland.
BrianMay 26, 2011Cajun chicken sandwich is best ever! Glad we tried this place We will be back for sure
Sandy RichApril 20, 2011Ask if Katie is working, she is the sheeet! The Duxelle crepe is the best thing in the world.
Daniel HendersonOctober 11, 2010Sunday nights are awesome! Cheap drinks, good snacks, great music. live DJ and bands.
Aaron CollisonJuly 25, 2010Chicken mole is not made with real mole sauce. The sweet potato empanadas that are served with are great! One of the best bloody marys in town.
Gregory HoffmeisterJuly 31, 2010The Altitude Adjustment bfast crepe is delicious!! So is the coffee. Great atmosphere.

The tortilla chips aren't the best. Stick with the pasta salad or fries for a side.
Great sweet potato fries. Beer and burger Mondays only $11.
- Aaron CollisonJuly 25, 2010In a follow up to the tip about the mole: the bartender comped my beer and gave me a 10% discount. He said he would pass my comments to the chef/cook/whatever.
Breast'o Pesto crepe is WAY too good to pass up, esp. If you add bacon!
