Fort Collins: Cow Town or Beer Town (or Beer Cow Town)?

I liked Fort Collins a lot. When school is in session, there are a lot of frat-boy/sor-girl hijinks, but the town has a good character and the “old town” has some great locally-owned shops and restaurants. I especially liked The Walrus (ice cream) and The Silver Grill (food).

Also, of course, there are plenty of breweries in the area, including my favorite, New Belgium

Cool Ballard Coffeehouse

Tiny coffee house in the Phinney/Ballard area, this place makes great coffee and has a great atmosphere. Bar seating inside, but it’s the nice outdoor sitting area that makes it cool, with iPod or KEXP piped in and lots of people-watching opportunities.

Here’s a link to lostinseattle about it.
