    Food was good but not great. The French fries were listed as salted and seasoned and appeared to be frozen crinkle cut fries with no salt or seasoning at all. Apps were very good. Polenta fries, bacon wrapped dates and deviled eggs. Service started off to be not great but got better as our dinner progressed The burger was okay but nothing special in any manner. The other dishes we had , gnocchi, short ribs and cassoulet were better. We were seated outside in the tent and the temperature varied greatly from comfortable to cold throughout our meal.

    From the vintage china and silver, the old wood stoves and the comfortable funky cabanas Black Cat must be experienced. The staff was knowledgeable and friendly. Each course outdid the last. The food is creative and flavorful, the sourdough bread outstanding. A true farm to table experience. Boulder and Longmont are full of good restaurants, but Black Cat is something special.

    Always a good meal to be had at The Post. Enjoyed crispy cauliflower off the happy hour menu along with drinks. For dinner, she had the fried half chicken with mashed potatoes; I had the roasted half bird (no gravy) with collard greens. Both were very good. (She prefers white meat, I prefer dark…so our leftovers provided both of us another meal the next day!) We shared a chocolate whoopie pie for dessert. Great local restaurant and craft brewery that has always been one of our favorites. We especially enjoy the outdoor patio in the summertime!
