Ace Gillett's Lounge

I really want to love Ace Gillett’s — the vibe is cool and I’ve given it multiple chances — but every time it just ends up feeling… meh. The drinks are pricey, often not well-balanced, and take way too long to come out, even when the place isn’t busy. Service is fine, nothing standout. The food tastes good enough, but portions are small for the price. On my last visit, I found a giant hair literally woven into my first bite. I get that these things happen, but it didn’t help the overall underwhelming experience. That said, I do think the space itself has potential, so I might give it another shot in the future and hope for a better experience.

For us it is quite the splurge to come to Ace Gilletts. It is about the music and the atmosphere. It is a hidden world of music. We went last night. And, I am plotting on how to get back. For Christmas it is an amazing date spot like you never would have dreamed. We came less formal than we should have my 21 year old son would like to wear a tuxedo here. You don't have to plan for a magical 1920s moment it exists here at this speakeasy. Glittering oil lamp candles glimmer like crystal around a grand piano or in half shell seats for four. We love the happy hour and grab "the High Society" non alcoholic drink with grapefruit, lime and hibiscus simple syrup. My son needs to know a good date spot, to appreciate the arts, to believe in the best and so we wanted to share it with him. He also loves culinary experiences and will be inspired to recreate foods and drinks.

I don't think I've ever experienced such a rude staff. Every individual who interacted with our group was extremely rude and unprofessional. Our waitress acted like we were a huge inconvenience. She completely ignored an individual in our party. The first couple times, we thought maybe it was just loud. But our server consistently ignored this one person's orders, and then wouldn't even hand their orders to them-she'd hand their items to the individual next to them. Not only was our waitress rude, she wasn't even good at her job. She kept getting orders wrong. At one point, a member of the kitchen staff came out with something that wasn't ordered. When no one claimed the item he rolled his eyes and said "great, we'll just figure it out" as he walked back to the kitchen. Then he sent the server out with the item to ask us again, and again, no one ordered that, which we told her. She got annoyed with us for her own mistake and mumbled her way back to the kitchen. At the end of the evening, we were eager to leave. Unfortunately, our server couldn't get our checks right, even after asking everyone what they ordered. She had to re-do some of the checks several times just to get the orders right. I was excited to finally try Ace Gillette's after hearing such great things. Unfortunately, I will not be returning after one of the worst dining experiences I've ever had. Definitely not worth the nearly $19 cocktail to be treated so poorly over their own incompetence. P.S. the service was also extremely slow!

I had breakfast at Ace Gillette‘s Café and it was amazing. The food was perfectly cooked, fresh, and great flavor, the hot sauce was perfect with three choices of local hot sauce, and a fresh sangria topped off to make one great breakfast. I will 100% be back to try more of the great food

very disappointing dinner last week. We've been to Ace's many times over the years, and it is going downhill. I had what was probably the worst rueben sandwich I've ever had. It was made with plain white bread and was grilled so that it was very greasy. Whatever slaw or dressing that was on it (not sauerkraut) have minimal flavor. Pretty much all I could taste was fried grease. The only good thing was that the meat was lean. When our food was brought out by a kitchen helper, we had no napkins and no silverware. And the waitress was no where to be seen. I had to get up and hunt someone down to get napkins.

We went for their 5-6 pm happy hour on Saturday night with the intention of getting dinner afterwards. All seats at the bar were taken, and the restaurant was on a 15 minute wait. We put our names down, and asked about grabbing a drink at the bar while we waited. The host told us that was not an option, as people are not allowed to stand at the bar (?). We sat down shortly thereafter. It took about 10 minutes for our server to come to the table. We ordered drinks and an appetizer. The appetizer came out 5 or so minutes later, but almost 30 minutes later, we still did not have our drinks. The server assured us they were on the way, and took our dinner order. The drinks finally arrived, just before dinner was served. It was a pretty disappointing experience, especially for just 3 people who each only had 1 cocktail. The food was good (which is the only reason I am giving the review two stars instead of one), but the service was extremely poor, enough so that I would not go back again.

Great visit today. Our server, Meg, was great. She was knowledgeable about the food and drinks and had good recommendations. The food was great as well. We started with the Deviled Eggs for our app and had Supper Club Tray and Caprese Grilled Cheese for our meals. The drinks were great as well. The bartender knows how to make a good drink!

Unfortunately I am left quite disappointed about this experience. I am trying to be fair but my disappointment is overwhelming. 4 of us went on a Saturday night, and our friends let us know there is usually a wait. We didn’t mind, but the hostess seemed pretty pompous and felt as if she was judging our worthiness somehow. We arrived 2 minutes before our 45 minute wait was completed, and she checked our ID’s. This part is on me, I just became a Colorado resident and forgot my paper ID at home, but had my hole punched, otherwise valid out of state ID. Hostess began to lecture and embarrass me in front of my friends and other patrons even after me acknowledging I know this is not acceptable. I would never give her a hard time if she turned me away but I didn’t deserve her judgment. Not like I was pleading with her to let me in. She brings us to our table and I thank her profusely. But the table she brought us to had a group at it and so we had to stand in the middle of the venue waiting for them to move and the table to be cleaned. No worries to us. But once we sat, it took a very long time to get service. Once we got menus and water, we were ready to order when she came back. We put our order in, and 30 minutes later we still had nothing. I caught the server’s eye and when she asked if we needed something I said “our drinks?” She acted surprised and almost inconvenienced I’d ask. Said the bar is taking a long time. But according to other reviews, this a common thing. This does not denote high-end or worthy of the price. And it would be fine if she had just checked in to let us know that instead of looking at me like I had 2 heads for asking. Not two minutes later, our food comes. Which is part of the highlight by the way. Food was adequately portioned and warm, delicious, and flavorful. Finally, 40 minutes into our stay, we got our drinks after we were well into our food. She did half-apologize and said she would take our drink order in a few minutes to try and mitigate the wait time for the next round. She never came back except at the end to offer us some more water and scurried away. The drinks were good and had beautiful presentation. I would have liked to try more than one. She was clearly in over her head with the amount of tables she had. Seems to me like it’s a staffing issue and she’s probably fed up trying to explain the same thing every night. But it also doesn’t take much to check in with a table as you’re passing by even if you have 20 covers at once, or even preempt them when they sit down. It makes all the difference in a service industry role. A last minute add, but I was very clear two of us had a serious nut allergy in the group. When she offered us more water at the end, she pointed to the crackers and said “how did you like the gluten free crackers?” To which my eyebrow raised in confusion. So I corrected her to say “we have nut allergies, not gluten.” Could be a slip of the tongue, but concerning nonetheless and makes me feel that she had too much going on to remember a crucial detail. But it doesn’t end there. They don’t have a direct line so you have to call the hotel they’re a part of. Same monotone attitude that makes me feel like these people just do not like their jobs. I had left a valuable Christmas gift on our table and was told to email a manager. It is time sensitive as it’s for Christmas, and no one seemed interested in figuring out what has happened to my gift. No sense of urgency, no real compassion. I called again today to ask if there were cameras, but none that pointed where we were sitting apparently, just one at the bar. If I were on the other side of this situation, as I have been many times, I would have expressed my concern for them and said let me talk to some people to figure it out. That we would take it seriously and ask around. All I got was “no one returned anything to lost and found” and “yeah, sorry.” Bad taste in my mouth after this and won’t be on my list of places to go in Fort Collins. I felt my only option was to post this honest review, which is sad.

Everytime we come here are more and more impressed with the people, the atmosphere, and the FOOD! Great place and always exceeds expectations.

Great for drinks and dinner! We visited Ace Gillett's on a Friday night and were seated right away. I loved the speakeasy vibe of the restaurant, with the barely marked stairway leading down the entrance. The interior was dimly lit with cool prohibition-themed decor. I especially loved the neon signage and disco balls in one of the private seating areas. For drinks, I chose the Ruby Soho, which was refreshing and tasty. My sister initially wanted the Color Me Kiwi but they were out of maraschino, so she got the Intro to Shochu instead. This one was also pretty good, but we liked the Ruby Soho better. For food, we got a few starters to share - the Dynamite Tots, Tuna Nachos, and Crab Cakes. All three were fantastic and plenty of food for two people. We did have the mixup of getting served the Dynamite Tots with bacon although we had ordered it without, but thankfully we caught it. Overall though, a tasty dinner with a cool ambiance!

Everything went absolutely crazy hard in the best way possible and Cody helped make it possible

This was a recommendation from a friend to go to with our son and DIL. We arrived the evening on Thanksgiving Eve and there were no tables for four and were assured it would be quick. It was not. We went to the bar for a cocktail to sustain us while we waited. Nope, the bartender told us we couldn't order a cocktail if we were waiting for a table as they were backed up. We finally got seated and our waitress informed us that the bar was indeed backed up and it would would beat least twenty minutes once our drink orders were placed. It probably took fifteen minutes instead of twenty. We then ordered two apps. The shrimp and crab cakes. The shrimp was delicious. The guys said the crab cakes were good. I ordered the grilled cheese and soup for dinner. The bread was nice and crispy and the soup was very good. They did have one other vegetarian option of Gnocchi and root veggies. There was one fish and it was a salmon. My hubby had the bacon burger and said it was good. My DIL ordered the filet and said it was very good. My son had a sandwich and thought it was also very good. All in all a great meal in a nice place. Obviously they were short staffed that evening. I would be willing to try them out again though. Hopefully they will be fully staffed next time.

Maddie serves great drinks. The whole crew did a good job. Phenomenal service and great margaritas

This was too fun! We met up with folks at 8:30pm on a Saturday night. Seating is first come, first served, no reservations. We were guided to a booth. There are many options for seating from tables, to booths, to comfy couches in nooks throughout the place. There was a DJ spinning vinyl, we requested several from the collection and enjoyed the music. We had hear tell of the beverages so those were our next order of business. Two ordered The Roof is on Fire, a mixture of Ace's Old Elk Bourbon, demerara, angostura and flaming rosemary. Yes, I said flaming. They swirled the rosemary stalk (a sprig would be a disservice to this cutting) in 151 rum balanced it across the glass and set it on fire. It burned blue out to the ends and went out leaving a pleasant smoked rosemary scent behind. One ordered Intro to Shochu which consisted of shochu, rosé syrup, lime, plum bitters, mint and soda. She said it was delicious and deceptive because she could not taste the alcohol. I enjoy the descriptions of mixed drinks, but i rarely order them so I got a glass of Cab Franc. We ordered the Devils on Horsetooth for the table to share. This would be a must do. It was a wonderful, warm combination of cream cheese stuffed dates wrapped in bacon on a bed of jalapeno caramel with a pickled jalapeno on each date. We were meeting for a late supper. What else do you do at a supper club? Two ordered the Beef Stroganoff, a creamy mixture of onion, mushroom and beef tenderloin tips served tossed with pappardelle pasta. They both thoroughly enjoyed the dish. One ordered the Herbed Roasted Half Chicken that had honey fig sauce, roasted turnips and Manchego mashed potatoes. She was happy with her choice. I have learned that the first thing that catches my eye on the menu is usually what I end up choosing. I felt like having a snack type meal. I ordered the Supper Club Tray which consisted of a slice of brie with jam, crackers, salami, 2 deviled eggs, olives, a little dish of hummus with some veggies and their house pickled peppers and mushrooms. My dining companions had the pickled veg due to my mushroom allergy and said they were delicious. I nibbled on my treats and sipped my wine. Overall a great experience with the atmosphere, music, service, food and drink.

Wanted to check this place out with my best friend this weekend while visiting Ft Collins, have a moms night out! We were greeted right away and they had us sit at the bar (next time will opt for a table). We checked out the menu for which drinks to try and ordered quickly. The bar tenders were busy all night, and we stayed til close! The staff were great! It didn't give a speak easy vibe but the drinks were fun! We tried 4 different specialty drinks and liked all pretty well. We definitely should have tried some appetizers too but it was a little pricy as it was for the drinks..maybe we will next time! I do recommend people come try this place out if in town!

Super cool vibe. Dark cavernous library with low, comfy couches and a fabulous staff. Food was very good. Drinks were quite good. Again, service terrific and vibe too notch. I would not order crab or poached eggs.

We loved having a guest in town to share this lovely spot with. Yummy food and tasty drinks. A little bit of a wait; but we were there for the company so didn't worry too much about the wait. A great vibe and friendly service.

Great cocktails and atmosphere! Nice and mellow! Yelp wants 85 characters okkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

Beautiful speakeasy vibe. The interior is classy and so well thought out. We stopped in on a Saturday evening at 6p before a show in mishawaka. Was sooo glad the hubby came across this place! Our server, Meg, was absolutely lovely. We started off with some unique drinks. My cheddar infused gin cocktail was crisp with delicate flavor. My hubby's banana drink felt like a party in your mouth lol. We then opted for the charcuterie board. Not much meat or cheese variety but the accomplishments made it quite special. We also had tuna nachos and shrimp cocktail. Exquisite. My fave dish however was the risotto! The crisp garlic and parmesan really added new dimensions and depth of flavor. I was truly impressed. Prices were reasonable too. Can't wait to come back and enjoy their live music!

This is a nice swanky kinda fancy lil prohibition type bar. Been several years since Ive been in but it still looks pretty nice, just had a few normal boring beers & the music I heard was nice & upbeat. I did not order any food but the patron next to me ordered some beef stroganoff & it looked & smelled quite delectable so next time I return I will definitely be trying their chow so I can decide on that 5th star.

Are you looking for the perfect date night spot? This is it. The service was great. We were immediately warmly greeted upon entering by friendly smiles. We stopped by for a drink and dessert after dinner. The dessert was to die for. Cozy booths and good vibes is what you'll find here. Stop by when you have a chance!

We come here every few months and always stop by for a drink or 3. Beautiful setting, great cocktails. Food is okay to be fair we've only eaten here once and it was end of nite. Will come back and try something new. We sat in the library room and had a very nice woman wait on us. She was exceptional.

This place was awesome. Such an amazing feel. Cool servers. Cool music. Great vibe. It's a speakeasy place so it's downstairs and dimly lit. Cool music. Really cool cocktails. The servers even dressed the part. We would definitely go back!

Megan is an amazing server for us every time. We always love the bites and the vibes here!!

Walked in super excited to take some family out for a special/memorial dinner... seated in an awesome booth, atmosphere was super cool. Ordered drinks which took quite too long to arrive considering beer/wine/alcohol on the rocks - normal Thursday, not very busy. Supper Platter app was strangely small, very disappointing... We ordered 2x Steak and Lobster and 2x Beef Stroganoff. I don't even know what to say about it. The beef stroganoff was the worst I've ever "eaten". There were 2 pieces of beef in it...2. Same for the other dish. Like $25 macaroni and beef bouillon or something. Chef has obviously never had beef stroganoff. Sadly the wait staff did not seem concerned (mine was not hot either)...she offered more "sauce" and didn't acknowledge the lack of actual beef in a beef stroganoff. It was actually hard to believe. Steak and Lobster: beef was such an odd texture, poorly flavored. Questioning if it was even tenderloin. Lobster was obviously frozen, smelled fishy and was the size of a shrimp. It was so sad to see. Once we were 100% done eating and our glasses sat empty for a good 15 minutes or so, the waitress let us know the the chef insisted on sending out more meat - if you've had beef stroganoff - it's slow cooked. We obviously declined as we had finished already. Wait staff disappeared for a while, no drinks, no bill, embarrassing in fact. They did not say anything, just dropped the 2x beef stroganoff off of the bill. We left embarrassed at how bad something can be at that price point. It's too bad. Cool place to get cocktails. Don't eat their food, you will regret it as much as we do.

Such a fun atmosphere and great drink selection. I always enjoy the music and the service tends to be pretty good.

Perfect for date night! Been going here for years! They make the best martini in town. My favorite Fort Collins bartender isn't there anymore. But the staff is amazing and the ambiance is great. Highly recommend the food and the cocktails. Go on a night with live music. Can't say enough about this great old town gem!

We love the relaxed vibe of Sunday evening's at Ace Gillette's. Mark Sloniker's music is why we go, and Ace's service (thanks Meg and everyone!) and atmosphere make for a great evening out. Keep up the good work!

. We started our day off at Armstrong hotel, it was fun, just the wife and I. We sat quickly and service was amazing. Our server Cody gave us a lot of info on Fort Collins and some great spots to visit and see and he gave me a recommendation for what is now my new favorite beer. Juicy bits. But honestly we loved the service. Cody was very attentive. Very friendly. And we loved the information on the town and all the spots to visit. 10 out of 10 would come back here.

Food is alright but Jesus Christ the service is awful. Between checking in and paying the check took 2.5 hours. It's a good vibe but also a lazy entitled one.

I was so disappointed with Ace Gillett's this Saturday. We were a party of 3 and we showed up around 8:00p.m for dinner and drinks, there was a 20 minute wait so we agreed to put our names down on the list to wait our turn. We have only been here for cocktails previously and knew that there will be a long wait at other restaurants. Hence why we stayed here for dinner and drinks. Well, 20 minutes turned into 45 minutes, turned into an hour and 15 before we got seated. Our issue was not with our wait time. Our issue was with the service we were given and the quality of the food we received. We noticed others waiting to be seated as well. Other parties were going up to the bar to grab drinks and we were told we weren't allowed to grab drinks while we were in the waiting area. Despite other groups being able to do so. We eventually decided to get drinks and it felt like the staff did not want to serve us. It was a very disappointing experience. Once we went to order dinner, multiple items on the menu were no longer available because they were sold out of them. We decided on ordering chicken sandwiches that came out 40 minutes after ordered them. The sandwich quality was unfortunately poorly made. The service was not great at all. I wish I could say good things about this establishment but my experience will cause me to not return here. The cocktails are always great but the poor service and poor quality of everything that transpired on Saturday night really does diminish the liking I did have for this place. I will say though, if you're looking for a jazz bar that has a very intimate setting. This bar is it. The cocktails are done well and the ambiance for a cocktail bar is there.

In my last review, I mentioned the food was hit or miss. Not sure if it was just one of those hit days or perhaps they changed chefs, but this time was absolutely perfect. Will consider 4 stars if they deliver again and show consistency.

This is my go to weekly spot! Their staff is incredible and I am obsessed with their burger. I always get the same drink which I am not sure is still on the menu, but it is called Put a Bird On It. Thanks for a great place!

Ace Hullett's is the coolest bar in Fort Collins. The atmosphere is intimate yet still engaging. The cocktail menu was great, and though we didn't eat any food, the menu was incredibly enticing. The staff was so friendly and welcoming. This is a great spot for a meal or an after dinner drink. You won't regret stopping by!

This place is real fun. Craft cocktails, friendly staff speakeasy. Pick out an album and tip the DJ.

Very cool atmosphere. The Lounge is downstairs. There's the lounge room and a library room. Nice decor -- reminds you of the Prohibtion era. Cocktails are delicious. Would definitely come back for drinks and appetizers again!

Incredible spot. Great food, great service, great ambiance, even better drinks. I loved their tiramisu, which came highly recommended. Incredible live music and a very fun speakeasy environment. Great for after work drinks or a date night!

Neat ambiance and the food and service was fantastic when my older pup daughter and I went there. It's in a neat area at the bottom of the Armstrong Hotel. Didn't stay for the music, but will have to check out sometime soon.

Great music, perfect service, eclectic menu of good food. What else do you want? Oh yeah--OPEN LATE!

This was a really fun place to celebrate my friend's birthday. We showed up with a fairly large group (7) and we're seated right away in a private room with a speaker that we could control. The atmosphere is really unique and ornate, the service was fast, and the drinks were delicious. We came later in the evening so I didn't try any of the entrees, but if you are feeling like having dessert- the tiramisu was AMAZING.

So far the best service I've experienced during this trip! The staff is incredibly accommodating and attentive. I already drank prior to coming here so I didn't get to try their drinks even though they have the most interesting items on the cocktail menu. My fiancé enjoyed his cats meow (I think that's the name) and I ordered the brownie. I was just randomly craving brownies and didn't expect it to be anything out of the ordinary and thought it would be a generic dry brownie that I'd get bored of after a few bites. However their brownie was super fancy and unique! After trying the first bite, I felt like that kid in Willy Wonka who fell into the chocolate river. If that river tasted as good as this brownie, I'd happily dive into it. The best brownie I've ever had in my life and was easy to gobble the entire thing in one sitting. Wonderful!

WARNING!: New owner. When the hell did THAT happen? It's not even Ace Gillette's anymore. It used to have a speak-easy vibe: laid back yet resplendent, great high-end drinks, food was top-notch. But no more! - they even ripped out the bar. The chairs, tables, decor, the drinks, the menu - all different. The menu is baaaad. I mean if you wanted to do a family restaurant style food, open up a damn family style restaurant, don't take over our Ace Gillette's!! The music - holy crap they now have a damn DJ station . One saving grace - the awesome tall blonde waitress who usually sports a bouffant is still there. She's always great. At least there is the one thing that didn't change (the only thing)? Just don't go. Gaaaawd that was bad.

I've only been here once but I absolutely LOVED everything about it. The ambiance is amazing. I was alone on a busy Saturday night and was happy to get a seat at the bar even though I don't drink. Sometimes bartenders aren't thrilled about having a sober patron at the bar, but these bartenders were welcoming and attentive - they made me 2 delicious mocktails and really made me feel welcomed. There's not a ton of options for vegetarians, but lucky for me, I eat fish and their salmon was AMAZING. Perfectly cooked. Just the right portion size. I could not have been happier with the whole experience.

Heard there was a new cafe spot in town and decided to try it out early on. First up, I notice the service is on a different level from most places. It's really great! Set up with a greeting station at the patio outside, it's more like a restaurant where you're greeted as you arrive. We decided to sit on the patio, which had options for sunny spots, or shaded spots under awnings or trees. It's pretty fancy here compared with other local options, and I'm guessing this is due to the association with the hotel? Not sure. That's apparent in the choice of chairs, tables, and silverware and the outstanding service. While there are food options, we were mostly there for coffee. The menu shows a french press for two, and a kyoto ice coffee. And speaking with the server revealed that of course they are happy to bring other options out, so there's some flexibility! The coffee was good, and we did end up ordering a kind of waffle-muffin cross-over thing that was ok, and maybe a bit of a creative reach. It satisfied the craving for something sweet with the coffee. Looking forward to going back in the evening and trying out cocktails on the patio. My only concern there is that it's right on College and might be noisy on weekend evenings.

the drinks were very good, i didn't really like the banana drink they offer because i didn't realize mezcal would be in it but i could tell if that is more your thing it's good, the food options are good and you can get plenty of stuff as tapas, and the indoor vibe is very nice with vintage decorations and older music requests

I love the room, and the drinks. staff is on and off accommodating. Had great drinks, a little pricey but worth it. However I have to bitch. The music during the pandemic is Bob Seger and rock bullshit. I miss the jazz trio and at least they could be a true jazz place and not change the vinyl when I chose Nina Simone and Miles Davis. Very disappointed with the weeknight jukebox and them catering to common bad music taste.

Delicious, awesome fun, lively atmosphere. Super dark too but cozy. Great music and cocktails.

This review is for Happy Hour. That's the only experience I've had. We climbed down to the speakeasy-like entrance. The interior's pretty swank, but a bit dark for my taste. There were warm booths with comfy couches, and it's spacious. The Happy Hour beer prices were excellent. 5 or 6 local beers at $2. Wine doesn't appear on the Happy Hour menu, but it's on special at $5. Choose from 4 house wines. The house Pinot Noir was very nice. There are cocktail specials for $5. There are no food specials for Happy Hour. That's the main reason for only 3 stars. There are probably 20 Happy Hours within 3 blocks with food specials. They used to (according to older reviews). We had two appetizers that were good. A caprese bowl and some asiago cheese fries. I would recommend both. The service was meh. Our server seemed more interested in getting the napkins and flatware rolled than anything else. I wouldn't return for HH, and not enthused about returning for dinner.

Accidentally stumbled on this gem. This is my new FAVORITE place in FOCO. Decor and ambiance reminds me of a NYC speakeasy. Food was impeccable made and presented. Drinks were priced a bit high but not unexpected.

Love Ace Gillett's! Particularly when there is live music. The best bar scene in Fort Collins. The food works - but the bar is to die for!

Love coming to this joint, Drinks are always top notch, the food that I have had has been great as usual. Went one night when they had some live music on New Years eve and it was fantastic. It was incredibly busy and the staff was busting their butts all night. Highly recommend!

At Ace Gillett's you will get what you pay for--which is a really well made, high-end cocktail served by a knowledgable and professional staff. Their cocktails are true to tradition and artfully made. This is one of the few places in Fort Collins where you can expect an elegant atmosphere and elevated service. There was not live music this time around, but I absolutely love when they have a jazz band playing for their guests. Hopefully the band will return once restaurants are back to business-as-usual.

Wow, Top notch service!! Amazing experience. The bartender was so eccentric and basically interviewed us and then surprised us with delicious drinks that were perfect for us

Just when I feared That ace may submit to economic and corporate changes I am pleasantly surprised. My dear friend Samantha May and Ray whom I thought may be lost. We're not. Sam is the most qualified manager I know. Now Valerie has displayed bar tending skill that remains as professional as when Ray commanded the bar at Ace.

Such a cool atmosphere! Definitely reminiscent of a speakeasy. The bartenders were all friendly and engaging, and all of the drinks here are super unique. I had the Star Treatment, which was delicious.

Fun place, good drinks & Jazz. Probably my favorite place to hang out in Fort Collins. One of the few bars with people over the college age bracket. Try everything on the menu... Our table made it through most of it and everything was delicious.

Cool vibe bordering on pretentious. Friendly staff. Need to go back a few more times. I want to like this place!
