    Went here with a reservation for the wine tasting of 5 reserve wines & charcuterie board. From the moment we walked in the service was bad. They didn’t ask what our reservation was even for before seating us & handing us menus. Once we finally got a waitress she had a bad attitude & was not in the slightest polite. We said we weren’t ordering off the menu & had a reservation for the reserve wine tasting. They first brought out 2 of the reserve wines, then a separate waitress brought us 3 wines that were not on our tasting menu & weren't even apart of the reserve wines. They were so disorganized & unhelpful. We were hoping to learn more about wine & what we were tasting but instead just ended up drinking random glasses below what we had paid for. Not to mention when we asked about the wines being wrong the waitress rudely said she would bring the manager only to return herself & say she didn’t know what happened but there was nothing she could do?? Definitely would not go back even if the building & ambience was beautiful.

    We selected the wine tasting. You are not allowed to select your wine choices and sadly we did not enjoy any. Next we were seated at a small table. Small enough that I had to hold my items as she was unable to place our food on the table with the drinks. Finally, the server. She was a bit rude.

    This was my second time visiting, Bigsby’s Folly, and once again, I was VERY happy with my overall experience! The wine has always been delightful and flavorful! The food was delicious and satisfying! The ambiance was great and perfect for “date night!” I will definitely be returning in the future to try more of their wines and food menu options!

Our friends were able to come and go without a lot of separating check hassle. Great ambiance and outdoor area with sunshine! Loved how dog friendly as well! Highly recommend

    The wine was great, the charcuterie board was far too acidic. I think that this place would be good if we stayed on the typical menu, but I would avoid the "experience" that I booked through the app. The flatbread we ordered was delicious I will give it another chance in the future

    I had a good time at this winery. However, the prices for wine tasting ended up being around 30$ more than what was stated on the website. And that was not including our 25% tip to our wonderful waiter.

    The building is nestled in a fairly industrial part of town, but once inside it created a modern feel. The charcuterie board was a little small, but paired well with the reserve flight we sampled. The staff was friendly and attentive. It was loud enough to feel safe talking about private things but quiet enough to hear across the table. We liked it. You should try it.

    We made a reservation for a large group and Bigsby's Folly was INCREDIBLE! They helped me through the reservation and made sure my group felt special. We were celebrating my brother's elopement and were able to get the private room. The celebration was perfect -- the right balance of atmosphere and intimacy. It felt like we were at a family dinner. The wine was excellent, food was delicious, and service was out of this world. I seriously cannot rave about our dinner enough. Nicole was our server and handled a lot of special requests with ease. We are all so grateful that she and the rest of the staff took such great care of us. Several family members said they wanted to come back for other occasions!

    My incredibly lovely date and I had a wonderful time at this classy craft winery. The location is great, staff is awesome in all ways, and they really offered some delicious suggestions. After sharing a bottle of Cabernet, I would encourage walking across the sky bridge where additional fun awaits. This could be anything from a wild freezing scooter ride down Larimer street, hunting for live music, meeting happy bartenders and locals, or just enjoying the cool sculptures that the 🦏 district provides. As you cross back over the sky bridge, you’ll find that you’ve discovered in the faint magical neon lights right next to the tracks, the most amazing place to share a kiss with someone special. Thanks for the suggestion Preston and Kaylee, you were right about her :)

    Hosted our end of year book club brunch at Bigsby and had a great time. It’s a busy time of year and staff we clear that our reservation could only be for 2 hours and we appreciated the heads up and clear communication. The brunch menu is decent but we found the drinks to be on the pricy side for what they were. Otherwise excellent time and service.

    We had the $35/person wine tasting experience with charcuterie board. Wines were fantastic, cheese board was a little small (as all restaurant cheese boards are) but service was great and the ambiance was really nice. Don't knock the slightly weird location, its a great place overall.

    Went to Bigsby's last night and everything was really top notch! We love their wide selection of wines and belonging to their growler club. We brought home our 2 favorite growler wines, Everyday Porch Pounder and Zinfandel! We also really enjoy their ever changing menu! Last night we had Margherita Flatbread with short ribs and mushrooms, YUM! The bartender, Kent, was our server and he was efficient and super helpful!

    Pretty disappointed, everyone had to make an adjustment to their order as they were out of all the popular items on the menu. For an already limited brunch menu this left few choices and a fairly expensive set of second choices to be left with.
