Although a very fun place to eat, we wanted to sit in a booth to be comfortable because we knew we would hang out for quite a while as we often do with one another. However, maybe because it was a full house, the restaurant did not allow only two people in a booth and that was a bit disappointing. We were going to sit at the bar, but noticed the upper level overlooking the downstairs area and chose to sit upstairs. It was after we were seated and ordered our food, that we noticed the noise level was quite dramatic, even though we sat upstairs in the small room overlooking the downstairs area. My delightful, close friend and I were there to celebrate her birthday (and mine as well) and because of the ridiculous noise pitch, we kept saying to the other, what did you say? I ordered a salad with mixed greens and salmon and it was the freshest salad I’ve ever ordered out. And also reasonably priced at $16. because of the nice piece of salmon. My friend ordered a tofu scramble that she enjoyed immensely. Both dishes that were served looked appetizing, artful and inviting to eat. The server was friendly and gave us great service; as soon as we ordered whatever it was, whether it was a glass with ice, she came back to us immediately. The only reason why I gave it three stars instead of five was the incredible noise level.

Came for brunch on a weekday and waited for a few minutes at the outdoor host stand before having to go inside and locate a server. Got seated in a corner where there shouldn’t really be a table, as my wife was continuously bumped into by staff and customers alike. Our server was not very friendly, and when my wife asked her to add bacon a few minutes after we placed our order, she dropped it off shortly after by itself, which was not ideal, as she wanted it with her meal, not as an appetizer. The food itself was quick and tasty, however, if you’re looking for a place to have conversation, this may not be for you! It was quite loud but eclectically decorated. Loved to see the pride flag!

We went for breakfast, and it was delicious! My wife and I got The Craig and Altitude Adjuster crepes, and oh man were they good and incredibly filling. We will definitely go back!

Fantastic menu filled with comfort food. The melted Brie was especially amazing. They were great with gluten free and nut free food as well. So good we ate here twice in two days.

I ate there 16 years ago and finally made it back. I had Ruben with a salad. Ruben had crispy bread, tender meat, good thousand island dressing. Salad dressing was a good ranch. Server was ok. The restaurant seating was a little hard. We ate in a booth inside.

This is one of those reviews that I don't want to write, because this place apparently isn't as popular as a nearby breakfast joint, and if everyone finds out about Foolish Craig's, then it would be impossible to get a table. I ordered the Salmon Benny, and my wife had the Chorizo Benny. She spoke highly of hers, and mine was spot on. And I don't think I've ever been served an honest-to-goodness, old school poached egg. That was an impressive touch. I'd go back to FC's for breakfast every time I'm in Boulder. I just don't think I want to tell too many people.

Foolish Craig's is a great little diner in downtown Boulder. It has lots of small tables inside and few outside as well. The design is a little quirky and fun and the servers were all really nice. The food is no nonsense and just good. My wife's salad was big and awesome and I really like my club sandwich. I would definitely go back.

We stopped in on a Thursday afternoon for lunch while hiking in Boulder. We sat for quite a bit before a server ever came to talk to us, but everything went smooth thereafter. The corned beef and hash was very good and the kids chicken fingers plate was an enormous portion. The Butter Rum Carmel Crepe cake was a bit of a letdown. There was a strange taste coming from it, that we couldn't figure out so we only tool a bite or two. All around the food was good and it is a solid place to stop for lunch.

Nice neighborhood brunch spot. They have all the usual brunch items like omelettes, eggs and bacon, pancakes, and waffles. Did you have an interesting crepe menu as well. We went for the fried chicken Benedict. It was pretty tasty, The chicken is the same as the chicken tenders they use I believe. For some reason I assumed it was a juicier fried chicken. We also went with a crepe that we didn't love the crepe skin, but it was well cooked and overall tasty and very filling. I couldn't complain about the portion size of it. Our server was very nice, checked in several times, and seated us in a booth on request.

This place is fine. I stopped in for lunch, I left full, etc. The good: My club sandwich was piled high with bacon and tender chicken, along with some nice veggies The fries were tasty enough Service was friendly There wasn't a wait when I was there The bathroom was pretty clean The meh: For a place that prides itself on homemade bread, I don't think my sandwich had homemade bread and I would have liked that option So. Much. Melted. Cheese. And. Mayo. It's small and a little cramped--a server nearly knocked over my water twice I need a paper receipt and had to flag down the server after waiting 10 minutes It's a nice enough stop, though.

We intended to go to Snooz, but my niece had looked up the menu online and thought it was interesting. We walked up and looked at the menu posted outside and decided to give it a try. I'd prefer to support a mom-and-pop business over a chain anyway. Inside is narrow, tall, and funky as hell. There is all kinds of artwork, kitsch, and mismatched stuff on the walls. It is tight, we were seated at a 4-top but immediately behind me was a 2-top. I felt bad for the servers having to squeeze behind me to get to that table! Menu has the traditional breakfast offerings and some more unique options, too. I went with an omelet that had bacon in it. This may be the best omelet I've ever eaten. The eggs had crispy edges, which I love, but not so cooked that the eggs are hammered and dry. There was so much bacon inside, it felt like I was eating 4-5 slices crumbled up. I opted for the toasted baguette and cheesy grits. The baquette was so fresh and had the right kind of chew. The grits, however, were inedible. I don't know what they did to them, but it was a crime against humanity. They were more like cream of wheat than grits, but they had a gumminess to them like warmed over playdough. I tried two bites, but didn't finish it. There was a small pot of fresh preserves on the plate that were absolutely delicious. We had no idea that it had been featured on Guy Fieri's show. We were all happy with our breakfasts. I would happily go back. Bathrooms are in a narrow hallway by the kitchen. You'll have to squeeze past servers. I waited for nearly 10 minutes. I thought that I was being punked because both bathrooms were in sue. Then, I thought that maybe someone had taken up residence, but then I heard a toilet flush. Thank goodness! I was getting ready to run out and find a place with an available bathroom. Fun little spot on a fun little street.

$-$$ A bright and airy, yet small and cozy eatery on Pearl Street in Boulder, Colorado. The staff is very friendly and attentive, and the food is served hot. There were a couple of snafus during my order, but my server was amazing and made the corrections quickly. As I sat here updating quite a few of my yelp reviews, my server came by just to make sure everything was OK and then said that I could stay in my little corner here as long as I wanted. The noise level is minimal, and you can hold a conversation quite easily, even though there are many people and quite a few tables. There is outdoor seating as well. All in all, a great visit to this place and I'm so glad I found it. Surrounded by chain establishments that also serve breakfast, I'm super glad that I walked into this one. As always, make some great memories and safe travels.

No wait on a Friday morning which was nice. Service was good. I REALLY enjoyed my Porktastic Crepes. Very tasty carnitas mixed with bacon, onions and mushrooms. Had a good cinnamon cold coffee special. Ordered the house made oatmeal stout toasted bread .. meh... Here's where the disappointment is.... They fumbled on the breakfast basics. My wife's scrambled eggs were dry and lumpy. My daughter's pancakes were mealy and tasteless. But the absolute SIN on the table...... my son ordered Belgian waffles. He got two Belgian waffles on his plate ...... straight from a Sysco box and microwave. I've been in foodservice a long time. I recognize these waffles anywhere. They are pre bought "brioche waffles". They don't necessarily taste bad (they are dense with little bits of sugar folded into them) but you are a BREAKFAST restaurant and you put waffles on my kids plate that I can buy for $1.25 each off the grocery store shelf.... I know... I've sold them retail! Very disappointing in an otherwise good experience. My meal was a 10. Unfortunately the other 3 diners who ordered very basic food did not enjoy the experience.

I have to say you would be "Foolish" to come to this place. If you watch the video on their website, I will tell you that is exceptional, but it's a gross misrepresentation of their food, at least in our experience. We showed up and put our name down; it was a rather short wait before a table was ready. However, we had a dog and they do not allow them inside and although they have outdoor seating, almost all of it is for two people and only two tables could accommodate our party of three. It was an hour before we were seated and even after all of that, quite some time before or server came out. So, let me just get to the highlights: - Ordered drinks and although I was brought my iced tea, we had to ask the server three times for one of the drinks for someone else in our party. He just kept saying "they are all backed up" - "Millionaire" Bacon was more like $1k bacon. Doesn't look anything like the picture and it was just bacon with syrup poured over it. In Austin, TX there are restaurants with million dollar bacon and this is nothing like that - I was suckered in by the "Best has I've ever had!" quote on the menu. Again, not quite... there are very few chunks of corn beef so it's rather hard to get a taste for it. It was mostly green peppers and onions with some potatoes. But this "slow-braised Certified Angus Corned Beef"... again, coming from TX I can appreciate good beef and really didn't get much to even taste. - their "award winning" bread... makes me wonder what the award was for. The bread was nothing special and in fact, I would not order it again. Our server was NOT at all into helping us or ensuring a good dining experience. He even at one point asked us to excuse him because his head wasn't there today. And I am supposed to tip just because you are physically present but clearly, and verbally, did not want to put any effort into our dining experience? I had heard a lot of hype about this place and sadly, did not go to the breakfast place next door which I know to be excellent. Again, if you have watched their video on the home page, it is first rate! But there is a serious disconnect between what you will see in the video to your actual experience and the food. I do not recommend this place and would recommend you trying the place next door.

While this place was incredibly packed on Sunday morning, the food was just okay. I didn't get the hype. Perhaps I ordered wrong, but their breakfast burrito was on the list of house favorites. The menu described the burrito as smothered in pork chile verde, but I had about 2 shreds of pork. I don't feel it lived up to the description. The inside was dry, nothing to write home about. Maybe I needed to be hungover?

Food: pasture raised meats and dairy + farm fresh vegetables + house made breads and tortillas = an amazing breakfast experience every time. Plus, their pork green chili is heavenly. Service: literally every person here is wonderful and amiable. Riley, the bartender, is fantastic and super helpful with ordering or drink recommendations. Ambiance: old school Boulder semi hippy and semi cabin vibe. Good music and smells with a great bar. Bonuses: Coca Cola shop; reasonable prices for pasture raised items; local shop run by a local team.

Good solid and fun place with all the favorites and a few twists. Humus sandwich and turkey sandwiches were great. Homemade potato chips very tasty. Server great and its lively. Not sure about bacon in a drink though....

I had the triple D special. Chorizo Benedict. Tastes delicious. Not too Spicy. Potatoes to accompany and small side salad (unnecessary) but I guess to cut some of the heaviness of the dish. Staff was very helpful and, on a Friday morning...it was jammed. The vibe very welcoming.

Joined the waitlist and was table was ready by the time we arrived. Our server was very sweet and attentive. Bloody Mary's are made to order with your preferred spice level which is great! The bread is freshly made and so good! The homemade chips were perfect, not overly seasoned. We sat outside. Super dog friendly and on a busy sidewalk where people will ask ya about your food. Would go back if ever in Boulder for sure.

There was a big wait, even when we booked ahead, but I can see why. All four of us were hungry from a strenuous hike and we ate every last bit of our meals! I got the egg and pancake breakfast, and would only suggest they make the pancakes a little bigger, they were tiny. My friend got the everything crepe (forgetting the full name), and it looked amazing. My other friends got the burger and a fried chicken sandwich. I would definitely come here again!

Great food and vibes. My friends and I were visiting Boulder from out of town, and this place hit the spot. We had a group of 8, and we were seated in two adjacent tables in groups of 4. We waited about 30 minutes on a weekend morning for our group size. The service was friendly and welcoming. The food did take longer to come out, but it was a bustling weekend morning- understandable. I ordered the Fugettaboutit Crepe, and it was delicious (breaded chicken, cheese, marinara sauce)! The portions were huge, and the food tasted great. I think crepes are the way to go, when ordering food from here- everything else seemed pretty standard/mid; but the crepes are a stand out. Ambiance as others have mentioned is eclectic and reflected the local flavor.

Great little cafe/diner in Boulder. We were visiting my sister in law for a few days and needed a spot for an easy, casual brunch and this hit the spot. I'm a big fan of Mexican breakfast so the tacos hit the spot.. a little dry but nothing some salsa and hot sauce can't fix. Hubby got the breakfast sandwich which was quite delicious and certainly filling if you're looking for a bigger item. My sister in law got the avocado toast and you can see by my photo that it wasn't the most exciting thing, but it got the job done. Overall, I'd definitely eat there again!

The best tofu scramble ever! This place has some great vegetarian options! I tried the tofu scramble and there was some kinda sauce used when they made it which was delicious! I also opted for the oatmeal bread which was yummy! They have veggie sausage on the menu as well! Cute restaurant and great food. There was free parking in a close by parking deck! Service was good as well! Attentive and fast.

Very busy. The decor seems undecided in character. Everything is too close together, you run into waiters trying to reach the bathroom. The food is okay.

So came here with high expectation but left disappointed. Their best in town beef hash was average. Although I enjoyed the ambiance and friendly customer service but the food quality was lacking. Not sure if my expectation + my palate regards to beef hash was a contributing factor but their food was just ok. Our party had to wait 1.5 hours and frankly speaking, it was not worth the wait.

I felt like I came into this brunch with high expectations since this place was on Diners, Drive-ins and Dives and because of all the good reviews for the corned beef hash. Overall I wasn't that satisfied, and felt like the place didn't live up to the hype. The eggs were overcooked and it felt like the overall dish wasn't that much more premium than your typical local brunch or breakfast spot. I feel like for the price I paid I could've gotten much more food at a local breakfast chain and would've left with a similar feeling of satisfaction as I did when I finished my meal at Craig's.

Weekend brunch at Foolish craigs is a must! This is on Pearl street so go walk the street while you wait for a table. Super friendly staff and their menu has a variety of adult breakfast drinks. We all enjoyed the various mimosas we ordered. Server was super sweet and kept apologising for the delay in order due to rush in the kitchen - we understand! Every breakfast item we ordered was good - I liked the biscuits and gravy here! This is your typical breakfast place but with good service and hence I do recommend! Also, this place was on an episode of Guy Fiery's Diners, drives etc.

My go to breakfast place in Boulder. Love their eggs benedict and crepes. I like their outdoor patio seating, and the inside is fun and vibrant with its decor. Staff is friendly and attentive, little wait time for food to come out.

We checked out this restaurant after a night of camping because 1. They were featured on diners, drive ins and dives and 2. They are dog friendly so we could bring our pup! From the greeting at the restaurant to our entire dining experience the service was top notch. I was really excited about the food but unfortunately for me it fell flat. For the pork benny, the sauce was under seasoned and the English Muffin was soggy by the time it made it to the table. I like a nice crunch on my fork when I order a Benedict. I was really craving biscuits and gravy so we started with those but again the gravy was a bit flavorless. However my boyfriend had the corn beef hash which was spectacular so I definitely recommend that. The food wasn't what I expected but the service was great so I'd be willing to try it again with some different menu items.

I selected this cafe for the positive reviews and DDD appearance. Today's selection: The Blintz, 2 eggs, and cranberry WoManosa (large mimosa). Perfectly mixed mimosa and fluffy eggs. The crepes were good, but a bit overcooked and could use a little more filling. Service was decent. It's worth the stop.

Well, this place remains busy, even during the week for breakfast and with Snooze next door! And there's a good reason for it, service is friendly and the food yummy (portions are huge!) Once again, I had the Foolish Craig's crêpe and it was delicious, I really think next time I should share it, no way I can finish it. We ordered a side of grits (as if we needed more food...) and we thought it was a little bland, but others might like it as I usually like them mixed with sauce, not on their own. It's Pearl Street but there is public parking right around the corner so no worries. Solid place for breakfast...all day!

Fuel Your Foolishness... Post-Bolder Boulder 10k, our famished group found ourselves in the world of Foolish Craigs. Despite the throng of race enthusiasts, we were seated in a mere 15 minutes, ready to embark on a culinary adventure. Forget your run-of-the-mill greasy spoon--this place is a treasure trove of randomness hanging from the walls and such. The decor is a delightful jumble of curiosities, including a mosaic handmade mirror in the upper loft--which is like stepping into a childhood fever dream. Rumor has it there's even a mysterious boob-shaped pattern on it. Foolish Craigs is a haven of inclusivity, with a warm and welcoming staff that served up our food faster than you can say 'huevos rancheros'. Speaking of which, the huevos rancheros and the blintz (a sinful medley of chocolate and strawberry crepes) were a gastronomic delight. Both dishes were scrumptious, but the huevos rancheros stole the show. I'd happily order both again. Deliciousness overload! Where food, folly, and a mysteriously fabulous boob mirror come together for foolishly good times! Moses relished every moment of this foolish breakfast escapade and recommends Foolish Craigs Café.

I ordered huevos rancheros (or the closest thing they had to it) and they put pulled pork in it without listing it as an ingredient. I haven't eaten pork or red meat in 25 years so it obviously went about as poorly as expected. I think the server might have brought the wrong plate because it was missing my side of cheesy grits. I'm giving an extra star here because she was apologetic and took it off my bill. But as you can imagine I wasn't feeling great for the rest of the day.

Great local diner-like cafe. Service was great, very attentive and courteous. Food was excellent! We had gone to Snooze right down the block the day before and I enjoyed this place more. I loved the atmosphere...very Boulder-esque. Would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to try great local breakfast spot.

Stumbled upon this place honestly because another place I scoped was temporarily closed. We walked in and waited at the host stand. It took a few minutes for a young lady to come up and we were sat immediately for lunch on a Tuesday. There was lots of good choices on the menu but ultimately went with that BLT Guacamole sandwich because it says right underneath it that it was featured on Diners, Drive Ins, and Dives. I don't remember that episode but if Guy Fieri says something is good - he knows right?! My side of choice was the home made potato chips. They also had a choice of tortilla chips or fries. Food arrived and I was surprised by how many chips were on the plate! They were crispy and had some good seasoning! My co-worker asked for a side of ranch to dip and they brought out this - what looked like - house made ranch and it was yummm! BLT comes on wheat but you can change to get different bread but I stuck with the recommended. The bacon is super crispy and over cooked! Just the way I LOVE bacon. The guacamole was good but I bit into a few big chunks of either onion and/or garlic which I did not like. Also, there is a LOT of Mayo on it. All and all - it was okay. The bacon was of course the star - Next time, I know to ask for the Mayo on the side!

This place has a great atmosphere, wide menu selection and the staff is always incredibly friendly. It's definitely a Boulder staple, and worth going if you are looking for a great spot to spend time with friends. Their drink menu is fantastic, but the breakfast doesn't knock my socks off. Don't get me wrong, the food is good, but there are other breakfast spots nearby I frequent first for a tasty meal that leaves me satisfied.

Foolish Craigs has a fabulous menu. Their list of starters and sides will have you trying to decide between sweet or savory. I decided to try the warm brie which was served with pear- apple marmalade and toasted baguette. It was absolutely delicious. For the amount of bread that was served, I wish that there had been a bit more cheese and apple. (I don't feel like I'm the only cheese lover here. I'm sure I'm not the only one putting a moderate scoop of apple and cheese on my baguette). For the entree, I had their famous corned beef hash. It too was delicious. It's served with house potatoes, onions, green peppers, two eegs and toast. The corned beef had both great texture and flavor. That being said, their menu was so extensive, if I were to go back I think I would try something else. Even their list of beverages did not disappoint. If you love caramel, definitely try their salted caramel latte. It was perfect for a cold day while sitting outside.

Fun spot for breakfast in Boulder. Staff is always polite and friendly. We have been every time we are visiting Boulder for the weekend. Food is great, all of the breakfast items that we have ordered have been very good. Crepes and French toast are favorites. Ambiance is fantastic - SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL MERCHANTS!

One of my favorite places to order from in Boulder. I love all the options on the menu and there is a lot of quality ingredients and meals. I ordered the Cuban sandwich and was thrilled with what I got. The fries stayed crispy even though I ordered delivery and the flavors were perfect. My friend ordered the Philly cheesesteak sandwich and we both agreed it was way too dry. Definitely needs more cheese or sauce or something else to spice it up a little bit. In the past I've ordered the Buffalo chicken sandwich and would also not recommend it. The quality of the chicken wasn't good and I think if it was cooked in a different way it would've been a lot better. I've also ordered the Brie appetizer and it's sooo yummy. Will go back again and again but some things on the menu are hit or miss.

Not impressed. 45 minute wait on a Saturday morning was completely expected and normal. Staff was friendly and welcoming. Food on the other hand was rushed and lacking. Eggs were under cooked, toast was just warm bread, chorizo didn't have much flavor, plates were messy, and dishes did not match the description.

Found this place while walking around looking for a place to eat. Stumbled upon foolish Craig's which is super cute and eclectic.

I would definitely recommend this place to anyone in the area

It's been four years since I first reviewed--time for an update. My love for Foolish Craig's has only grown stronger. Some may say it's at an awkward level of intimacy. I'm now a regular, with my fave seat at the bar and the courteous, professional, and beautiful staff all know my order before I even utter a word. They put up with my scatter-brained stream-of-consciousness ramblings about every subject and brutal attempts at comedy. What brings me in, week after week, and sometimes day after day? It is an intangible emergent property which is the sum of extremely tasty food, fresh Boulder Organic coffee, quenching cocktails, a pleasing eclectic atmosphere, friendly dining room and bar staff, a skilled and efficient kitchen team, and top-notch owners and managers who care about both their guests' and their employees' experience.
