Amazing! A must for anyone. Just a delightful experience.
Bramble and hare used to be amazing, but something has changed. My husband and I went there for date night last night and for $75/person, it was very disappointing. Everything used to be special the service, the bread, the taste quality and presentation of the food, the whole experience. Now everything’s fine to mediocre and definitely not worth the $200+ bill. Super disappointed. This used to be such a special place.
Mixed feelings on this one the bartenders and servers had great personalities but overall very slow service. The menu is limited but I liked most of what we ordered. Went with a big group so we tried just about everything. What we liked: gnudi, risotto, charcuterie, quail, pork. Don't recommend: salmon tartare, potatas bravas. Atmosphere wasn't my vibe but definitely is for others. I recommend checking out the website to see if it's your type of restaurant but personally I wouldn't go back. Biggest takeaway is that the food and specialty cocktails were good, but expensive.
Meh Food is locally sourced which is nice but doesn't meet the price point IMHO. Kind of loud, not chill but ok. Service was really awful . 3 hours was too long. Lots of waiting with zero liquid on the table. 45 min from last dish to dessert with no water. Empanada was very pedestrian. The salad was good but not remarkable. Salmon was great but really quite regular. If you are going to position your restaurant as high end, u need to deliver on service and food that didn't happen on our night.
Excellent service. Attentive and very personable. The food was fantastic and perfectly prepared. I will definitely be back.
Bramble and Hare captivates diners with its cozy atmosphere and a promising farm-to-table concept; however, recent reviews suggest inconsistency in both food quality and service. While some guests laud the unique flavors and exceptional cocktails, others express disappointment at overcooked dishes and inattentive service. The fixed-price three-course menu, though luxurious, raises concerns about value for the portion sizes. Amidst the critiques, the restaurant’s commitment to organic ingredients and a warm ambiance remains a highlight. For those seeking a romantic outing, Bramble and Hare could still deliver memorable experiences, provided the kitchen and service improve.

The review of john h. my wife and I were on vacation, and the ambiente and the previous reviews had us ok with the three course prefix menu. the.
The menu they present is a prix fixed meal with which is definitiw more than we wanted, but since I was on vacation, I didn't think too much.
Man, I'm so stupid to write this review. two stars because I think the idea of this spot has earned and I think / who our server did their best, but that.

Absolutely one of my favorites in Boulder! Amazingly fresh, fantastic service, and very reasonable. Highly recommended
The cocktails are outstanding, the food is exceptional—all sourced from local farms and absolutely delicious. The service is fantastic as well. It's an incredible place to visit!
We had a phenomenal experience and cocktails with our bartender Sam.
We had a wonderful birthday celebration at this restaurant. I was thrilled to discover a place that isn’t designed in the industrial style. You can truly enjoy an intimate atmosphere here...
Excellent farm fresh food. Amazing cocktails. Wonderful staff. Perfect ambiance.

The experience was wonderful! Drinks were great, food was fantastic! The sunchokes were my favorite part and were absolutely delicious! What a unique dish! The gnocchi was good, but not better than any other restaurants gnocchi. The salmon dinner was out of this world! Lamb chops were good as well, but not exactly what we were expecting. They were cooked almost like pot roast, but was very delicious and super tender. The only part of the meal that was less than underwhelming was the chocolate cherry dessert. It was dry and gritty, and not fudgey like most other chocolate tortes I've had. Would have gone with another dessert if any others were gluten free.The service was excellent and fun, and the drinks (and drink suggestions) were on point! Great experience all around for a decent price for the quality of the food! Would recommend for a special date or holiday, and we will absolutely be back!
Really lackluster service. Our waiter did not want to engage. We did not feel welcome.The overwhelming accoutrement and sauces detracted from the salmon filet.The timing between plates was very slow, and although we accounted for 2 hours for a 3 course meal, we were 30 minutes late to our show.Also the staff asked twice if we had any celebrations, and we let them know it was my sister's birthday, but they did nothing to acknowledge this. Overall the experience would have been a lot better had the service been even 10% better.
Other than the salmon tartare appetizer the food was terrible. Fixed menu sounds creative but outcome was not. The restaurant had great reviews was packed, but I can't recommend and would never go back. Even the deserts were blah
Wonderful food as always. Wondering about the service when sitting in the bar area. It seems that the primary dining room is the place to sit if you want to order a cocktail upon seating or getting your water refilled. Again great food and attention when our server did appear but felt that we were an afterthought and there were long gaps between having someone check on us.
Excellent hors d'oeuvre, drinks, and dinner, as well as deserts. We'll prepared and presented.Staff is attentive and knowledgeable but not pushy.

We went for a birthday celebration and our sons loved it.
I’ve been to Bramble Hair many times and have always had an amazing experience. This time they just didn’t hit the mark.
Lamb was too tough to chew. Rest of the dinner was good
Great food have enjoyed dining at the Bramble Hare/Blackcat for many years!!
Great room to dine in. Creative food. Relaxed vibe. Highly recommend.

Absolutely incredible on every level. Top 5 most memorable meals of my life. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
So I know this review is going to be different than a majority of the other reviews here. This was our first time here and we had extremely high expectations as it was highly recommended by a long time Boulder resident. When we first walked in we thought the atmosphere and decor was absolutely charming. Our waiter, Joe was super kind, cool, and funny. He called the accent of the other waiter, douchy which cracked us up because it was. this added to Joe’s credibility and very relatable personality. My appetizer of gnocchi with white Ragu was absolutely delicious and I would go back for it. However, my entrée had so many issues with it I was shocked it came from the same kitchen. Practically raw carrots that were supposed to be roasted. Unseasoned, assorted vegetables. The salmon itself was cooked perfectly, however. My boyfriend ordered quail, stuffed with lamb sausage, and it was very very dry. The assortment of vegetables that came on his plate were similar to mine. Some undercooked, some under-seasoned, and all of them fairly boring. My dessert was a hard tart shell filled with raspberry custard that was seedy and overly sweet topped with a passion fruit mousse type thing that was lacking flavor on all levels. My boyfriend thought his chocolate dessert was OK however. Our bill with wine and gratuity was $300 and it was definitely not worth it. However, the idea that this restaurant grows all of its own produce, and some of its meat on its own farm is really cool!
Phenomenal experience!!!! This was a complete culinary and esthetic experience. Every bite was delightful. Service was personable. Worth every penny! Price per person: $100+ Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
3 stars for the overall experience of a $150 per person meal. Poor service (40 mins to take our order, spilled wine on the table, didn’t have half the wines on the wine list, only got one water glass because the others “were dirty”, waited 15 mins for reservation) food was fine, with the exception of dessert which came out melted and a mess like it had been plated an hour before. Honestly it was an ok experience that I won’t endure again for the cost of service. Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $100+ Food: 4 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 4
I’d give this 6 stars if I could! Incredible experience from start to finish. Food truly tasted far more fresh than many other restaurants I have been to in the States. Very fair price for 3 generous size courses. HIGHLY recommend!! Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $50–100 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Amazing! Great customer service! Everyone was really friendly and courteous. Food was delicious
We came here for my birthday, and the overall experience was really great. We were incredibly fortunate to have had Mike as our server and bartender, and he took such great care of us. If you want an elevated experience, we’d highly recommend the Bartender or Baller’s Choice, especially if you have Mike. Everything was so thoughtful, high quality, and delicious. We will be making this a staple for our Boulder trips going forward. Thank y’all for such a great night!
This place is incredible. Great cocktails and wine list. Charcuterie board went above and beyond. 3 course meal that was enough to serve 2 people for $68?? Not to mention how cool the place is. Get this chef a James Beard award.
I had an outstanding farm-to-table dining experience. The food and wine pairings were excellent, and the limited menu featured some of the best combinations of flavors and seasonings I've ever encountered. Don't forget to leave room for dessert! We all took home about half of our entrees, and they were just as delicious when reheated!
The food was very fresh and clearly reflects a farm-to-table concept. My only issue is that the clientele seemed rather uniform. The service was exceptional, and the dishes were delicious, featuring some exquisite touches and thoughtfully curated choices. However, the quail was a bit small and slightly overcooked, but it wasn't a major problem.

Phenomenal. From the service to the food to the sommelier to the wine pairing, we had the most fantastic evening. Summer squash soup Beet salad Spring rolls Caramel panna cotta
While visiting Boulder from Texas, I stumbled upon this restaurant by chance and was fortunate enough to find a parking spot right out front. It was a delightful surprise! The cozy and inviting atmosphere contributed to a wonderful dining experience. In the two hours I spent there, I only noticed one person on their phone, which speaks to the ambiance. The three-course meal for $38 was absolutely fantastic, and the service was top-notch. This meal ranks among the top five dining experiences of my life, and I can't think of a single way it could have been improved.
I visited this lovely restaurant yesterday for dinner and drinks, and it was fantastic! The dinner was outstanding, particularly the salmon dish, which is hands down the best I've had this year. The fresh corn, tomatoes, and other vegetables really elevated the dish. I highly recommend trying it! Although the bar is small, it has a very cozy atmosphere. Melody, who manages the bar, crafts some delicious signature cocktails that are definitely worth trying. They make for a perfect start to your meal. This restaurant is a hidden gem that you definitely don't want to miss!
I had a wonderful dining experience at this restaurant. The three-course meal was truly delicious. Although the menu had limited choices, I found it hard to decide because everything sounded appealing. The ambiance is remarkable, featuring intimate seating arrangements and cozy love seats, with thoughtful drapery that creates a private dining atmosphere at each table. However, the service staff appeared somewhat disorganized, as they had difficulty remembering who ordered which dish. The desserts were also delightful, with the orange cake standing out as my favorite among the ones I tasted. Overall, it was a memorable dining experience.

This restaurant has been on our must-visit list for years, but we hesitated due to the prix fixe menu. Don’t let that hold you back – you should definitely dine here sooner rather than later! We went with some friends from out of town and truly enjoyed both the atmosphere and the food. The ambiance, the energy from our waiter, and the delightful drinks contributed to a relaxed and cheerful evening. Speaking of drinks, this is a craft cocktail venue, and we loved trying the various creations on offer. The favorite among our group was the Linen Suit, a Scotch-based cocktail featuring fig and other intriguing ingredients. The menu changes frequently, so be adventurous and explore! For appetizers, we sampled the soup, beet salad, and fried green tomatoes. Everything was tasty, but the fried green tomatoes really stood out for their unique preparation and flavor. For the main courses, most of us opted for the beef dish (ribeye served with polenta and vegetables), while one person ordered the rabbit. Everyone was pleased, and there were no leftovers to bring home! For dessert, I can only speak for the Hazelnut Mousse paired with flourless chocolate cake – it was absolutely exquisite! Overall, Bramble Hare offers great value for its prix fixe menu. It’s now officially on our list of go-to places for special occasions and gatherings!
