robe Posted September 13 Share Posted September 13 Any good places to eat. I prefer an all you can eat buffett to feed my fat ass. Quote The Masters 5k road race All American. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beaver-Poke Posted September 13 Share Posted September 13 The 17th Street Cafe near Washington Park or the J's Prairie Rose downtown are good for breakfast. Born in a Barn, Crowbar or Altitude Chop House downtown. Turtle Rock Cafe, right across the street from campus. McAlister's Deli on Grand has somewhat of a chain feel but it's a great place for lunch. Alibi Pizza is good. If you want to catch some scenery, drive out to Centennial (27 miles) and try the Bear Bottom. Matty the bartender is a great guy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SanDiegoPoke Posted September 13 Share Posted September 13 Buffalo Indian has surprisingly authentic Indian Food, and if you are vegetarian, Sweet Melissa's is great (even if you are not vegetarian). We'd all be remiss not to mention the Prairie Rose for breakfast. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wyo 1 Posted September 13 Share Posted September 13 3 hotdogs for a dollar at the local loaf and jug, I’m well aware of how thrifty you guys can be. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beaver-Poke Posted September 13 Share Posted September 13 Bummed the closed the Kum N Go by the old Clark Street overpass. The Wendy's on Grand should be open by now after renovation. Of not, there's a Jimmy John's just down the street. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beaver-Poke Posted September 29 Share Posted September 29 Checked out the downtown Laramie webcam after the game last night and it was hopping. Big crowd in front of the Buckhorn, which must have been crazy. Looked like a sellout, or close to it, at the WAR and the crowd was really into it. Life is always better when Howdy Doody and the Zoomies get their asses kicked. Svoboda looked very good last night. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SanDiegoPoke Posted September 30 Share Posted September 30 It was a great weekend in Laramie. Although almost no SDSU fan agrees with me, the Wyoming fans are far more passionate and supportive than SDSU fans. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agswin Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 You have to cut the SUDS fan a little slack. It is only since they built their own stadium that any of them started to become more serious fans and follow their team. It does seem like we found a decent pizza joint in Laramie a few years ago. I was hoping for something at least disguised as authentic Old West food like Navajo Fry Bread smothered with Green Chili, but Laramie seemed to mostly be fast food like every small city in the West. Same slop, different location. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even 10 years of great football didn't convert many, if any, to attend when the team is down. There are now far more basketball fans (for obvious reasons).

Same slop, different location. There are numerous downtown options that are not anywhere close to "fast food." If you're close to campus, I'd recommend the 17th Street Cafe, the former Rainbow Grocery. Excellent food, informal atmosphere. Two blocks south of Grand. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phxpoke Posted Wednesday at 10:53 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 10:53 PM Born in a Barn has great food. Sweet Melissa’s has great vegetarian. Wyoming Rib and Chop house is another good option. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two blocks south of Grand. 17th Street Cafe went away after the owner passed away some time ago.. It's now an Hawaiian burger spot... Best food in town is the Alibi. Great Neopolitan pizza and lots of good stuff on their fresh baked breads. Prairie Rose, Born In a Barn, and Crow Bar are pretty good bets. If Off the Hook's truck is out'n'about their fish & chips are solid. The grill inside the Hilton is actually pretty good. Rib & Chop is consistent, but a bit over-rated, as is Double-Dubs Wings (another truck)... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Facebook If you are game for a scenic drive, the Bear Bottom in Centennial has excellent pizza and good food as well. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
