   Overall I would say we were disappointed. The food was decent, but nothing really blew us away. We had the lamb and the pork. Lamb was average, pork was ham and sausage. The sausage was tasty but the ham was dry and tasteless. The Beet salad was very good and the gnudi felt like it was missing somethings. The deserts were solid. The service was solid. The restaurant itself was freezing cold and even though we asked them to turn up the heat, we were never warm. For a $200 meal for 2, I would expect a better experience.

   The service was savvy, professional and perfect. The atmosphere perfect for a cold night in Boulder. And the food was magnificent: lamb shanks and pork loin and shoulder, charcuterie plate, the always superb beet salad, ambrosial desserts. Well done, Bramble!

   We loved our dinner at Bramble and Hare — we were the last reservation of the night during a snowy winter storm warning, and the dining room was so cozy and inviting, and the staff so friendly and warm, that it really did feel like stepping out of the cold and into a friend’s kitchen. The turnips were our favorites, though all the dishes were delicious. We noted that we were dining out for a special occasion, and the staff made our meal extra special with sparkling wine and “just married” written in chocolate on our dessert plates :) thanks all!

    Party of 10. Once entree ( vegetarian) was enjoyed quite a bit Salmon—texture of farm raised ( soft), the vegetables and sauce not pleasant The lamb—fatty The quail—didn’t taste good for 3 who ordered it Waiter unable to describe what was in plate for the vegetarian dish. So—despite a nice place, food was really not tasty. Bad night in the kitchen? Or, just not good? After the meal, we all agreed: 1-the music was the best part of the experience 2-food very disappointing

    We arrived for a 7 pm reservation and had a leisurely meal that was paced by our server. She was excellent. Unfortunately while we were eating our desert the staff started cleaning up the dining room to close down for the night. We certainly weren't taking our time. We were eating at the pace set by our server. The restaurant says they stay open until 10 pm. At 9 pm we felt we were keeping the staff past closing hours. It was certainly a rushed end to our evening. I'd recommend you arrive very early if you want to have a relaxing meal. The food was tasty but not wow.

    The birthday dinner for my daughter was a disaster. We were seated in a booth by the kitchen hallway. One young waiter yelled "Corner In" and "Corner Out" with her constant passes within a couple feet of us. This was repeated every minute by other staff in somewhat lower but also annoying voices. It is ridiculous that they even use this booth. I don't know if the noise carries to the other tables in this small venue. I ordered med rare lamb and it was well done and covered in a mush of vegs and roots. All three of our meals were mediocre. The service was poor, the bill large and to say the least we won't be back.

    With the Black Cat restaurant location in Boulder having not reopened, we were concerned that Bramble & Hare wouldn't come close. While it isn't the same, it was a very nice prix fixe menu. We will certainly come back.

    The space is inviting and quaint. We were one of the first tables of the evening. We had a lot of questions for our server and they answered with good detail. As the evening went on, they were much less attentive. One of our party waited 30 minutes for a second cocktail. A green chili was one of the appetizers, but was more of a red chili with beans,. It arrived to the table cold. For entrees, two of us had the lamb and polenta. The polenta was creamy and had good flavor, the lamb was tough, chewy, and lacked flavor... additionally it was lukewarm at best. The other person in our party had the salmon, and was unimpressed. Two of the desserts, the carrot cake and flourless chocolate cake were fairly good, the vanilla cheesecake was delicious. I do not have a proper paying $68 for a three course meal, but this did not begin to reach that price point. The restaurant seemed understaffed as well.

    Bramble and Hare is my favorite Boulder restaurant. The menu is simple and comes mostly from their farm. I always feel like I have been invited into their home, and served their favorite recipes.

    Food was very underwhelming. Bread was limp, butter was overly salted. Entrees had way too many components that didn't work together, spaghetti squash was full of raw garlic, salmon had a leftover bone that stabbed my gums. The lemon poppy seed cake saved the evening and was delicious. Service and ambiance was pleasant.

    We returned here after an off experience because the food was so good and we wanted to give it a second chance! Second visit was much better and I would definitely recommend this restaurant. I’m know businesses are all having service challenges now but I appreciated that this one clearly took my previous comments to heart and worked to do better. This is the sign of caring owners and a business that is in touch with its patrons. Wonderful chef and bartender with interesting food and cocktails. Very cozy ambiance. Highly recommend!

    Pre-covid, this was one of our favorite Pearl Street restaurants. It was nice they had the option of higher end Black Cat next door to keep Bramble and Hare more on the less expensive side. $68 for three course choice of 1 app, one entree, one dessert is pretty pricey, especially if you opt for a soup and a veggie entree. Still love the atmosphere and the service was great. Beet Salad was the best app we had and very generous portion. The squash/duck confit soup was not so good. Our entrees were delicious. The desserts were okay, but not comparable to some of the much better desserts around downtown Boulder. Likely to choose other options going forward, and hope the owners consider going back to the more homey, better value menu. Yes, would recommend, but not highly at this point.
