Wonderful little cafe! Came up for lunch and was not disappointed. The food was excellent, and the people were wonderful. I definitely recommend it!

I really love the Howling Cow Cafe! It’s literally on the dairy farm for Morning Fresh Dairy. They have a menu of coffees, pastries, sandwiches, milkshakes, and ice cream. Also, fridges with lots of farm fresh milk, Noosa yogurt, cakes, cream cheese & more. There’s a nice sitting section and they offer tours of the dairy facility for 6/person on Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, & Sundays 4 times a day (reserve online). They have flights of milk and milkshakes which was so fun. They also offer special milk flavors such as caramel and root beer. At the cafe, my husband got a coffee & chocolate milkshake and a chocolate croissant (he loved both). I got a toasted Parmesan bagel with cream cheese, cookies n cream milkshake (amazing!!!) and a jug of chocolate milk to go. Everything was delicious!

Flight of ice creams, flight of milks, and flight of espresso drinks ---- soooo fun! Highly recommend trying them each. All at one time was a bit much (actually not, but it did ruin lunch plans). If you can only try one, get the ice cream flight - vanilla, strawberry, chocolate, and a flavor of your choosing!!!!! Definitely recommend the Howling Moon Cafe

From PA, a former dairy farmer, myself, this was my first time here. I always enjoy going to on-farm cafes when traveling. The drinks and ice cream were very delicious. When we were there, it was busy, a lot of hustling & bustling. Then, the confusion of 1st timers like me. The ordering & serving area was small & the layout was confusing & all the signs here & there, trying to help one, make sense of it all. May want to consider re-designing the order & serving area so it flows nicer with less confusion. Will return again if ever visiting Fort Collins again.

This place is really great, a little off the beaten path, but if you’re headed either south from Wyoming or north towards Wyoming this place is definitely worth the stop! The food that they have here, sandwiches, coffees, fresh I ce cream, yogurt, lattes, bagels, of course, the little knickknacks that you can buy as a souvenir’s! Stop, and take a bit of a detour and you will be very happy that you did!

Friendly staff, beautiful get-outta-town location, delightful gifts, and a huge variety of drinks and goodies! They even sell plants. Cozy place for a matcha on a rainy day. The backyard has games like corn hole for sunnier days.

I've always loved stopping in here when we're out on the motorcycles. They're always so kind, and the coffee and baked goods are magnificent. Today was a really hard day. We had to say goodbye to our older dog, and I made sure amongst the other things we had to do on her last day that we stopped into the howling cow. I wanted to get her a chocolate bar, and we split a lemon bar from the bakery case. I couldn't help but mention why I was there, and they made her a pup cup as well. Lovely folks, and now they have a special place in my heart. It was one of the last places I got to spend time with my harley girl.
