The Cow Saloon & Eatery — Restaurant in Greeley

If I did not have to put in a star, I would have rated this ZERO stars. The local Indian Restaurant we love to go to was closed, so we wandered across the street to the Mad Cow. We had never been before, and they advertised a Prime Rib special on Thursdays (we were there on Thursday (4/25/19). There were 3 of us, and we all ordered the prime rib. This was at 7:20pm. At 7:45pm the waiter came back to the table to claim that our ticket never made it back to the kitchen, and confirmed our order. 10 minutes later at 7:55pm, he brought us our soups and salads. He said our dinner would be out shortly. Another 25 minutes went by (now 8:20pm), and no food. I went up to the bar to track down our waiter and asked when our food would be out, because we had only 20 minutes before we had to leave to pick up the grand kids from the sitters. He said "I didnt know you had somewhere to be"....what, why would he say that? We thought we had plenty of time to order and eat, since we got there at 7:20pm. He yelled back to the kitchen "I need those prime ribs now!". How long does it take to cut and already cooked prime rib, and put an already cooked potato on a plate??? OK, well I will tell you, it took another 15 minutes. Our food finally arrived at 8:35pm. The prime rib looked good, but was COLD, not Luke warm, COLD. At this point, we ate what we could stomach, and asked for our check. The waiter took 25% off the tab, as a courtesy for the latency of the meal. That was a nice gesture, however I felt as though we should not have paid at all. The tab was still a little over $60.00 for the 3 of us, even after the 25%. I would also like to note, that the Restaurant was not very busy, and several tables that came in after us, were served before us. I see that most of the review for this Restaurant are good, so I am disappointment that we had such a bad experience, and paid good money for it. I would not...

If you come here to watch a football game and drink a beer in a clean restaurant with a good atmosphere, then this is the place to go. However, this is about all this restaurant is good for.

I don't quite know what I was expecting when I walked into this restaurant and sat down, but I certainly wasn't expecting the limited menu options or lack of hot meal options. Both my wife and I flipped the menu over a number of times trying to find the missing pages only to realize that there were no pages missing from this short menu.

Salad, soup, or sandwich....that's pretty much it folks. Sure, they do have some appetizer options, but it's nothing too special. We ordered a half order of Nachos, a cup of Chili, and a Reuben sandwich to share. The Nachos came out as one would expect from a football game. Swimming in overly processed cheese, a few black olives, a little bit of meat, and few slices of Jalapeno. The only thing fresh about this was the Jalapeno. Next up was the Chili. Nothing to write home about either, just watery and oddly....sweet. Finally, the Reuben. This is where the meal a had a chance to redeem itself, but it once again it fell flat. The sandwich came out with more sauerkraut on it than meat, and it just tasted bland. Everything tasted as though is either was prepackaged, or came out of a can. Not what I expect from a restaurant environment.

I do regret having a meal here. Everything on the menu seems like it is there to be made fast and with as little effort as possible. There aren't even french fries on the menu offered as a side. Just soup, salad, or chips. Easy, fast, cheap, and disappointing. I'll come back to watch a game and drink a beer, but I won't be...

I cannot believe how much they charge for sandwiches. A family if 5, 3 of which just eating Pb&j kids meals, cost $74! The place is themed after cows yet no cow meat is served, no burgers, fries or anything.

The kitchen is the size of a large bathroom where I’m convinced they just have bread, a toaster, a bag of baby carrots, Lays chip, lunch condiments, pickles, and soda. That’s the extent of the menu. It’s food you buy at Sam’s and make at home, nothing more. The Arnold palmers are unsweetened because they only serve unsweetened tea but they charge $6 for a glass of lemonade.

The waitress’s wear booty shorts and low cut shirts in an attempt to boost the atmosphere, yet it’s just children in there and old drunks. No tv just xtra dust to watch move. Our waitress never even returned until she saw us getting up to leave. She also was the bartender apparently despite the fact she looked to be about 18.

If you want a sandwich go to Jimmy Johns or Subway, it’s cheaper snd better. This place in no way deemed a restaurant it just has the wait time of one. The kids meal comes with HALF a sandwich, 4 baby carrots and a handful of lays chips. Or, microwaved pretzel bites with spicy jalapeño cheese that no kid will touch. This item like many others, is recycled as an appetizer. You can even get the PB&J as a “ meal” for adults. Lol I’m PO and laughing at...
