It takes some adjustment when you first walk into this place - yes, it is a butcher shop, and a deli, AND it has beers on tap - my brain couldn’t quite process that at first, but I got over it quickly - a handful of taps, mostly rare New Belgium stuff (sweet!), plus a well-selected list of bottles - the staff was friendly enough, but fairly slow - the sandwiches are pricey (11 bucks for a Rueben!), but very tasty - everything is clearly made with high-quality ingredients - nice mix of clientele - a very unique place, and one that I will certainly visit again if in Fort Collins.

What a great place to eat and drink. Where else can you get a corned buffalo sandwich?? Great beer selection from various Colorado breweries most notably New Belgium and O’Dells. Great food, friendly service and great beers, what more do you want? And the breakfast?? Banana nut bread french toast....... need I say more?

Went there with Jakebra. Great place. Russ is the coolest dude ever and is always organizing events. The food is absolutely incredible. Probably the best sandwich I’ve ever had. Russ has a great selection and has a bunch in the back. I’m skeptical that he has more than he lets on, but it’s cool. Great place, great food, great staff. I love this place.

I’m kind of amazed that Mike’s the only one who’s rated this place in the last two years or so. Great stop on our way south from Wyoming. Excellent, huge subs and wraps and grilled sandwiches. New Belgium, Fort Collins, and other local Colorado rarities on tap, along with plenty of aged Belgians and sours and American craft brews. Highlights were the NB Erics Sour Peach and Abbey Grand Cru (which I’ve wanted to try for a long while). Great selection, really helpful and knowledgeable waitstaff, and just a cool place to stop by for a beer and a big, cheap meal. Highly recommended stop.

Hell yes. Awesome deli, awesome food, stellar draft list, solid bottle list. Can’t say enough, go here. No more Stille Nacht Reserva, not for a while, but they do have bottles of 2000 Stille Nacht ($20). A couple of new New Belgium small batches on tap as well, Giddy Up, Old Cherry and Eric’s Sour.

This place is great! What a concept - a deli/meat market combo with great beer on tap and in bottles. Went there with some friends after the NB tour (my friend Chris at NB suggested this place - thanks Chris!) The buffalo Ruben is amazing. I want to go there again next time I’m in Fort Collins.

Had a very nice sammitch and tawk wit frenz after having been rolled through the NB tour. Twas either tour guide or fellow Austinite the steered us to this place. Really need to head back some time when I have a few less beers under my belt (or when I’m not driving). At least I was able to sample sips of my friends beers along with mine and had some food to soak things up and time to talk and relax. Cool place and sounds like it’s doing well.

Finally made it to this place ... cozy, wholesome and comfortable atmosphere. Loved the historic ceiling. Very friendly, cheery and attentive staff. Incredibly tasty sandwiches. I had the reuben with corned buffalo, fresh sauerkraut and homemade 1,000 Island ... and the wife had a really flavorful roasted chicken ... awesome stuff. Surprising beer selection, too, as others have already elaborated on. I wasn’t planning on drinking while there, but I couldn’t resist when I saw the Fort Collins IPA on tap.

Went with BeerandBlues2, his lovely wife, and that guy Ernest. I can only second what they’ve written. It was a nice joint; all of the food was real-food, and craft-made focused and the beer experience was pure bliss. One of those places where you walk in to see what they have and your head starts spinning and your ability to know where to start flies out the door. Had my best beer day every here, thanks to the treasures in their cellar, the geniune and friendly proprieters and the company of good friends. Spread the word and investigate their monthly beer dinners on their website—it sounds like fun!
