Great experience! We had so much fun and enjoyed all the yummy food. We learned a lot of history about our own city all thanks to Ryan our tour guide! 10/10 recommend.
Awesome, Callie, we're so pleased you enjoyed the tour with Ryan! Thank you for the review. Kind Regards, Samantha
We had a great guide with Roger. He was very knowledgeable with Colorado Springs and the food. The Irish Pub, hands down was our favorite. Delicious food and the bar manager came over and gave us a very nice talk about the history of the pub. We also had a "surprise stop" at the Rabbit Hole and enjoyed delicious carrot cake, again the manager told us stories about the history of the restaurant. Poor Richard's was a complete let down. When we arrived, our pizza was already sitting outside and no one was around to service it. Roger quickly started handing the pizza out but no one from the restaurant seemed to care that we were there. The pizza was only OK, probably because it was already cold. The ramen noodle restaurant didn't seem like it belonged on the tour at all. We sat in a back room on what I would describe as cafeteria tables. The manager was nice but the food was just mediocre. When we walked by later on, the place was pretty empty and chairs were already put up on the tables. Maybe the restaurant was having a bad day but it does not seem to compare to the Irish Pub or the Rabbit Hole. We may have been expecting too much but we have been on other food tours and when we compare them, this one comes up a little short. Again, Roger did a great job and was very kind and informative.
Hi Pam, I am so glad that you enjoyed Roger as your Tour Leader, the food, and the restaurant staff you met along the way! We strive for a 5-star rating all around and try our very best to meet our guests’ expectations, and so we appreciate you sharing our missed opportunities on your tour. Kind Regards, Samantha
Our first visit to Colorado Springs and we started it off with the cocktail tour!! Noel was wonderful - friendly, knowledgeable with lots of history and stories - and the stops all afforded us delicious cocktails and appetizers. We met Brother Luck at his restaurant and enjoyed talking to him too! Definitely recommend this tour!!!
Thank you, Carol! We are glad you enjoyed our cocktail tour and Noel as your Tour Leader! We are fortunate to have Chef Brother Luck in our community. Please come back and try another tour soon. Cheers! Samantha
We stopped at 6 places. The food at each was good and even appealed to my picky teen boy. I was not disappointed with the exception of the pizza place we stopped. I believe it was Poor Richards. It should have not been on the tour as it was mediocre at best. We had several boxes of pizza left over that they boxed up for someone to take. Our guide was very nice and trying hard but some of the information he used to fill time was a little excessive and meandering and lost peoples attention. The portions were pretty big so I would take that into consideration as most of us were getting full by the 3rd stop. We were starving when we started the tour but I recommend eating half. I think the tour is good and worth taking but should be revised in making it a little shorter so time filling was not necessary and perhaps smaller portions.
Hi there, I am glad to hear that you enjoyed your Tour Leader and the food served on your tour! Because we want to make sure no one leaves hungry, we do serve generous portions. This is something we state up front, and therefore we encourage people to come hungry. Since your review, we did have an opportunity to talk with you on the phone about your experience. We credited you back a portion of your ticket fee per your request. As we have expressed, we are disappointed that we didn’t get high marks on the tour you took. Hopefully we have another opportunity to prove ourselves again. Kind Regards, Samantha
We hit five of the local restaurants, the food was fabulous. Our group of four loved all the food we tasted. Portions were more generous then expected so go a little hungry.
Noel did an incredible job even when we were caught in a downpour before our last stop. We laughed, a lot.
Learned some history on our tour and about the art scattered throughout the city. We are now addicted to food tours :-) thank you Noel
A new food tour addict - we love it! I am glad to hear that you enjoyed your tour. We do serve generous food portions in comparison to many other tours - good thing you came hungry! Please visit us again. Cheers, Samantha
Did the dowtown food tour with my husband and a couple of friends visiting out of town. Noel was a delightful guide! I'd been to some of the restaurants before, but going through the tour provided a totally different experience and I tried things that I wouldn't normally choose. I'm pescatarian and Noel worked with each restaurant to ensure I had something interesting to try. This was my second time doing a tour and can't wait until the next time!
Wonderful! We always try our best to accommodate dietary restrictions, and so I am glad to hear that you enjoyed everything! Noel will be excited to know that she did a great job. As locals, we hope you join us on another tour soon! Cheers, Samantha
