My family loves to go out to breakfast. We have tried all kinds of places. One thing for sure is that there are a bunch of great places in and around Fort Collins to eat a great breakfast.
No matter what kind of breakfast you’re in the mood for -- the sweet or the savory -- you can find it in Fort Collins.
Plus … breakfast has bacon!

Try a Galette with your choice of Chicken & spinach, Professor Steve, California, Four cheese, or stick with the basic. Maybe Peach stuffed French toast is your cup of tea? They have so many choices I have a hard time choosing!
