Loveland
Taste Local
The Rockstar Verdict
Taste Local is a locally owned café in downtown Loveland built around fresh, Colorado-sourced ingredients and food made with care. Open for breakfast and lunch, it serves brunch-style plates, sandwiches, and creative café dishes, with coffee drinks and specialty beverages rounding out the menu. The focus on local purveyors gives the cooking a seasonal, from-scratch character — familiar flavors prepared thoughtfully rather than dressed up for effect — and vegetarian and gluten-free options are part of the lineup. The room has an eclectic, welcoming feel, with a shaded patio for fair-weather meals and a relaxed pace that suits a slow morning or a midday catch-up with friends. Beyond the café itself, Taste Local also offers custom catering for gatherings and events, and a First Friday Supper Club invites guests to slow down over a shared evening meal. For visitors exploring downtown, it is an easy, friendly stop that shows off what Loveland's local food scene does well: fresh ingredients, careful cooking, and a table with room for one more.
