Local Relic - Colorado Springs, Colorado

Janet A.

This is a chill spot to enjoy some delicious beers from a diverse menu. The location is fun, relaxing, and spacious in and outside of a former church with a cocktail bar and food vendor sharing the space.
The beers were not only creative but also included styles not typically found on American brewery list.

I will absolutely be back next time in in Colorado Springs!

Local Relic was absolutely worth a visit. The staff was helpful, the beer was unique and enjoyable, the food was good, and the old church setting made the experience all the more fun!

I really liked the fact that I could have ordered cocktails and wine if I wanted (though I stuck with beer.)

As others have mentioned, the acoustics are not the best, so the venue can be quite loud. I’m not overly bothered by noise, so no issue for me.

Altogether, will visit again!

I wanted to like this place a lot but it ended up being a bit disappointing. We got the strawberry French toast with ricotta because that sounded good. Both the strawberries and ricotta had a grainy texture and not much flavor. It didn’t make it bad but certainly not what we were hoping for.

The atmosphere and service were both good on the other hand. Naturally repurposing a church is always a cool idea and paid off. Additionally there is some nice outdoor seating with hanging lights which are always a nice addition. The decor was a bit minimalistic including the seating.

A hidden gem and must try! They have a unique set of beers that probably won’t be made again as they are constantly on rotation. It is in a shared space. The food was fantastic we had the tostadas. We shared to flights of 8 different beers and loved 80% of them. We would definitely be beer members if we lived in the area. They have a pricy, but great membership program:) The open on church space was eclectic and fun. Can’t wait to go again!!
Back again after about 2 years and things have evolved! They are still only making beers 1x and they are still fantastic! They now have brunch available, which was pretty good. The biscuits were a bit dry and they could have provided more jam.

Very open and laid-back atmosphere. The roasted potato wedges were so delicious and the charcuterie board offered a large variety and quantity of tasty items. Food and beer pricing was very reasonable. The main host did a great job, providing excellent service. Those handling the beer and wine bars also checked to see how we were enjoying our flight selections. Very pleased with this dining choice and will definitely be back.

The location (an old church) was really cool. The staff was very friendly and extremely helpful! 3 different stations, one for beer, one for mixed drinks and one for wine was innovative and allowed you to spend time looking and talking with the server. Food was fantastic! Huge servings and multiple layers of flavor in my Mojo Pork Huevos Rancheros!! My wife loved her Todays omelet. Beer selection was outstanding with an amazing amount of different styles. My wife loved the selections of wines. Highly recommend the Local Relic and we will be back.

Wow, what an amazing overall experience. Dropped in on a recommendation from a friend who is from the area that knew I'd be visiting here most of the week. This is formerly a church from the late 1800s, and as of 2017, it's a really fun and unique experience with its own beers from its brewery across town, wine bar and cocktail bar and a killer restaurant. Definitely get the NY Strip steak tartare... I'll be back for the curry mussels, pork chop and the brunch venue in the very near future. All staff were awesome, only names I got were Marley and Jeff, great folks!

The food, beer, and staff are great. Free Street parking if you can find it. The beer rotates very frequently so even though everything I had was amazing, it doesn't mean you'll be able to get the same beers depending on when you go. The reason I gave this place only four stars, and I would really give it three but I didn't want people to miss out on the great selections they have, is because the venue is incredibly loud. It's in an old historic church, which is super neat, but the acoustics in the building are such that no matter how many people are there it's extremely noisy and difficult to hear a person across the table. They do have some outdoor seating, so that helps, but be advised if you have anyone with hearing issues that this place will be a challenge for them. We took home 6 bottles of some stuff no longer on tap because what we tasted was so good, we are confident these will be great as well.
