Happy Hours are what get most of us through a boring day. Many places just have drink specials, which leaves me hungry and a bit too tipsy for a weekday afternoon. Considering my weak wallet, I need places that can satisfy both my thirst and hunger without racking up a high bill.
Lucky Joes: Mondays 3.50 burger baskets and 2.50 micro drafts all day all night (11am-10pm)
This sidewalk saloon is a little blast from the past. The atmosphere has an old-timey feel to it with a lot of wood, low lighting and music. Lucky’s is great for a casual lunch or night out.
Fort Collins Brewery: Monday-Friday from 3–6 pm — 7 food menu items all under $5. Drinks: Pint: $3, Wine by the Glass: $4, cocktails (Lemon Shandy, Michelada or Moscow Mule $5), Pitcher $15
Fort Collins loves beer. With roughly 30 microbreweries it can be hard to decide which one to go to. FCB not only makes great tasting beer, they also have a modern tavern with a wide variety of food choices!
Fuzzy’s: Tuesday: $1.50 tacos, $2.50 margaritas, $2 domestic pints $3 micros pints
Fuzzy’s is a vibrant taco shop that is a crowd favorite of the Campus West area. The margaritas are strong and their sauce is fire. Need I say much more?
Jaws Sushi: $5 California Roll and Coors everyday
Sushi is never a bad idea and Fort Collins screams beer. The sushi chefs know their stuff and are fun to talk to. This deal is perfect for lunch or a light dinner!
MoJeauxs: Wednesdays: 4–7 pm & 10-close $2 singles, $4 double well cocktails, $2 Coors, Coors Lights and Bud pints, $3 select micro pints AND 2 for 1 burgers 5–9 pm
Get home cooked food without actually cooking it at home! Mo Jeaux’s serves Southern BBQ, Cajun and burgers cooked in their slow cooker just outside the restaurant. The bar atmosphere is great for when you want to socialize, play some pool and have a few beers.
