Bramble & Hare

Solo diner review (10/31/2024). All treats and no tricks at dinner on this Halloween night!I arrived a little early to my 7pm reservation on Halloween night, but was welcomed immediately and very thoughtfully given some options about where I'd like to be seated. As a solo diner I always appreciate a table with a view and there was a 4-top they offered me with a lovely banquet seat that faced the open kitchen. Service was on point throughout the meal with a gifted glass of wine from the Som.The food was lovely and earthy and filling. I loved that they're recognized for being sustainable by Michelin and their menu reflected their commitment to local farming (veg and animal). As a visitor to Boulder it was nice to eat a meal that was truly local.I opted for the the Creamy Tomato Soup (hearty, thick and delicious with handmade croutons), the Tunis Lamb (delicious corn polenta and a welcome addition of the currants), and the Chocolate Peppermint Mousse which came in a delightful pyramid shape. I was not excited by the family style vegetables -- their texture was soggy and overly salty.I also really liked that for larger parties you could choose to get two appetizers or two desserts. This allowed people to share their dishes and try more items. Other diners have criticized the youth of the wait staff, and I will agree that most are too young to drink. However, I had a lovely time and felt my meal was well worth the $75 pre frix menu price.

We've eaten here twice in the last few years and food and service has been great both times. My wife was pregnant and they made a great moctail for her.

This was truly a special experience. Very eclectic but relaxed and fun atmosphere. Probably more private than most higher end restaurants so the quiet was nice. They do farm to table so everything comes from their farm or from a local farm including the distilled spirits! The menu is small and you select your preference from appetizer to dessert . The food was outstanding- very, very fresh (photos). The presentation was just as special. The service was very good - Tyler- very friendly and engaging and a wealth of knowledge about food/wine from an extensive chef background. But everyone was so friendly. I just have to say the values and philosophy of this business is so nice to see, hear and experience. Local, fresh, creative, fun, and delicious.

I've only heard great things about Bramble and Hare and after going there for the first time yesterday, I can definitely say it lives up to the hype! When walking in you can see that the restaurant has an upscale vibe to it and has some great decor. The lighting is a little dim so it's a great spot for a date, but at the same time, it wouldn't feel weird to take your family or friends. The staff were amazing as well. Our waitress was very attentive and gave some great recommendations. When it comes to the menu, there's not a crazy amount of options, but honestly I think that's better because they can really focus on making the couple of dishes they have on there really well. The food is all farm to table so it's guaranteed fresh. My friend and I got their gnudi, pork belly, and foie gras as our appetizers and they were all super tasty. The pork belly literally melted in your mouth as you ate it and the foie gras had a perfect blend of rich, savory, and sweetness. For the entrees, we got their lamb and pork and both were so juicy and flavorful. You could taste the freshness (not gamey) of the meat which was awesome. The dessert was great as well! We got their key lime tart and it's one of the best I've had hands down. Overall great experience and I definitely recommend if you're feeling a little boujee.

Outstanding food. Very unique atmosphere. Excellent service. There are so many different rooms to sit that create some romantic ambiance. I was lucky to sit facing the open kitchen, and I had a chance to observe the cooking process. It was a great experience. This is the restaurant to remember. Every calorie was in the right place. Moreover, they accommodate nicely gluten-free , dairy free needs for my friends. Highly recommend it.

What a fun place for a special occasion! We went for my husband's birthday and everything was delicious! There aren't many options for the set menu but they do a good job considering different allergies and food preferences. The salmon was some of the best I've ever had! The service was a little slow but they ended up comping our drinks which was very nice. They also gave my husband a free glass of champagne for his birthday! It's a little pricey for a normal date night but great for a special treat!

My experience at Bramble & Hare dethroned my previous Boulder favorite. The restaurant is cosy and warm, with a golden glow and plush seating, draped with fuzzy blankets and pillows, that wraps around the small space.We had a mocktail and a glass of wine to go with our bread board. My one suggestion for the kitchen would be to warm up the bread brought to the table before the meal.The entire meal was outstanding, but the highlights were the gnocchi and the salmon entree.The gnocchi: hearty and flavorful. This dish reminded me of an elevated hamburger helper in THE BEST WAY. It was topped with squash blossoms, which added to the presentation. I would come back for this dish alone.The salmon entree: not only was the salmon amazing, but the quinoa was the best I've ever had. So much umami.Stuart and Micha were wonderful with suggestions and ensuring the meal was perfect. I could not have asked for a better experience.

Great farm to table food, great service, cozy ambiance. We look forward to going back.

I really like the ambiance, kind of like a rustic medieval lodge. The service was really good and they were very attentive. The menu selection is limited, but it's nice because every couple of weeks they change the menu and it's farmed fresh ingredients. I got the salmon and it was delicious. They actually keep the skin on and it was seared to perfection. The side vegetables was also very tasty. It was expensive at $40, but I consider the area and also for the taste it was good.

This restaurant has been on our list to visit for years, but the prix fixe menu may have kept us away. Well, don't let the menu stop you from dining there sooner rather than later! We went with friends from out of town and really enjoyed ourselves and the food. The ambiance, the mood and energy of our waiter, and the spirits in our beverages really helped set a relaxed and jovial tone to the evening. The drinks. This is a craft cocktail establishment and we enjoyed the available concoctions. The table's favorite (we sampled 4 of their custom creations) was the Linen Suit, a Scotch-based drink with fig and other magical ingredients. It's likely that their menu will change, so be adventurous! Apps: Our group tried the soup, beet salad, and fried green tomatoes. All were enjoyable, but to me, the tomatoes stood out for their unique preparation and favor.Mains: Almost all of us decided to get the beef entree (ribeye over polenta and vegetables) and the other ordered the rabbit. None of us were disappointed and no-one had any leftovers to take home.Desserts: I'll just speak for the Hazelnut Mousse that includes a flourless chocolate cake. It was so good!Overall Bramble & Hare provides good value for its prix fixe menu. It's now on our list of places for special occasions and special groups.
