CB & Potts

I've been to this place a few times since it's only a few blocks from where I live and I'll attest that for all the bad rating it gets, but...they stay busy.  2 blocks away from CSU and in the heart of collegiate type housing, C.B. & Potts provides what most college age people want, which is bar food and beer.  Not to diminish the taste savvy coeds in their choice of places to squander their parents money, but if you're going to eat cafeteria quality food you can easily go to Taco Johns for a fraction of the cost.  It doesn't take a Economics major to figure that out.  Then you'll have a few extra bucks to pay for good beer somewhere else.  

As active participant in the Colorado beer culture, I have to relegate my opinion of their beer to "meh."  There are several other places in town to get more for your money.  However, if you've never been here, you should try it at least once.  There's no sense in not thinking for yourself.  I'll just say that you should not have high expectations.

They had great chemical burgers, oops I mean cheeseburgers. I really appreciated ordering it medium rare and having it served to a burnt crisp, perhaps it was Opposite Day. Oh we'll, it's not like it was $13 for this frozen delight that tasted similar to Carl's Jr or Burger King (actually it was.)

Good thing this horrible food did not kill me because the service was so slow I might have been late to my own funeral.  

How is this place jam packed? How can the people here accept such dirt poor standards? I may never understand.

My wife and I went to watch the opening weekend Monday night college football game. They had the game on the big screen, however would not change the audio from their radio to the game broadcast because "it wasn't a major enough game" even though it was an ACC  conference game as well as a top 25 game. It was the only game on television and it was during dinner according to them as to why thy didn't want the sound of the game. I wonder what happens during NFL Monday Night Football? Thankfully we left and saw our team's first TD of the season elsewhere.
