About Longmont Public House

When a fine dining Chef decides to take the edge off and open a classic Public House:

 

For years, I have worked and thrived in fine dining restaurants, and during the last few years I knew I wanted to open my own place. I dreamed of a restaurant that combined all the types and styles of food & beverage, as well as overall restaurant brands that I frequented the most – restaurants and pubs that provided excellence in consistency and quality at a fair price based on the overall experience and environment.

 

I knew I couldn’t’ let go of all the detail and intensity of running a fine dining restaurant, such as my love of the freshest product available, carefully cared for local ingredients and an educated staff to execute my service vision. I wanted to keep the things I liked about fine dining (service excellence, outstanding food quality, specialty cocktails, local craft beer, a thoughtful wine list, etc.) and dump all the stuffiness of fine dining; reservations, stiff, coarse service and a menu that requires exhaustive explanation with shocking prices.

 

The result is Longmont Public House, a Longmont restaurant and Longmont bar, named for the traditional pubs and local restaurants as a place that serves as an extension of our community gathering places for anyone seeking house made food and hand-crafted drink. The Longmont Public House menu plays to good food, delicious drinks and a warm, comfortable environment while applying the philosophy of top quality food products to a more casual dining setting. We present to you what we believe will take its place as the best restaurant in Longmont.

Tonight was a bittersweet night at the Longmont Public House; sad because it was the last night at LPH (as management has decided to discontinue the games) but sweet because the turnout was so high and the contest so spirited. The night became a two-horse race early, as Band Of Bezonians jumped out early (hitting successful double-or-nothing tries in Rounds 1 & 3) while Brown Chicken, Brown Cow kept close by also doubling in Round 3. The rest of the field were bunched tightly near 3rd place; notably, returning regulars MGBK rebounded from a failed double attempt in Round 1 and steadily climbed back into the race through the night.

Brown Chicken took advantage of a failed double try by the Bezonians to leap into 1st place by 2 points after the Guess Who round, and a successful double in Round 5 (against 8 out of 10by the Bezonians) gave Brown Chicken a 14-point lead after 5 rounds; Band Of Bezonians turned the table in Round 6, scoring a successful double (while Brown Chicken scored 8) to make the margin a mere 2 points entering Round 7. No team scored fewer than 4 points nor more than 6 in the final round; Brown Chicken's 6 correct answers clinched the honors, with Band Of Bezonians finishing 2nd, 4 points back. First-timers Trivia's Last Stand finished in 3rd place, 5 points in front of 4th place MGBK .

I would like to thank all who have played at LPH these past few months for being such good sports and such friendly people. A shout out to the staff and management at the Longmont Public House for their support, you made the whole experience enjoyable. It has been a true pleasure being your Quizmaster, I hope to see you all again soon!
