Our waitress went above and beyond accommodating our 20 adhoc family brunch, making sure everyone had drinks, beignets, and a delicious meal as timely as possible and with a smile. The food was amazing and over the top quantity as always. Thanks for making this such a fun place to visit as a large group!

My partner and I ordered the Beignets and Eggs Pontchartrain which were both outstanding. The cheesy jalapeno grits (so good) stood *just* above the breakfast potatoes but you won’t be disappointed with either. The service was outstanding. Thank you for having us!

Delicious Fort Collins breakfast! The gumbo was fantastic and the other dishes we tried were quite tasty as well. The restaurant itself is small, and tight, but full of energy. Thankfully we showed up as things started to slow down, but we still had to wait - so be prepared!

Bustling breakfast spot with loads of servers. Cajun style breakfast with some pretty great options. I got the blackened catfish, house cinnamon tea and a biscuit with rhubarb. Very filling meal, the tea was delicious and the rhubarb jam was delicious almost desert worthy. My server was very nice and I was seated at the bar.

We love New Orleans for many reasons but the food is the main attention getter for us. When visiting Fort Collins, Lucile’s was highly recommended for breakfast. We didn’t realize we’d find some NOLA in the Rockies. My goodness it was as good or better than we’ve had in the Big Easy. This place is special and we’ll be back next time (and every time) we’re in town.

You are going to have a great day if you start it at Lucille's. Order light or indulge in a cajun breakfast with eggs hollandaise, cajun beans, and a mamoth biscut. The orange marmalade is worth a return teip on its own.

Great little brunch spot! The food is always exceptional and the service is superb! Definitely quite small compared to some of their others locations I’ve been too. Both times I’ve stopped in they were completely packed and for good reason because the food is beyond worth the wait! I was able to snag a spot at the bar both times which was nice and they served me quite quickly. I’ve ordered the Eggs Benedict and the Eggs Jennifer with a side of half sweet potato grits and half potatoes both were out of this world. Highly recommend trying their house-made ketchup it’s a game changer. Also the homemade buttermilk biscuits are fluffy and quite large you can’t go wrong. Parking can be a little tricky since you can’t park in the lot that’s it’s located in as it’s reserved for the postal office next door. Most of the parking is along the sides of the road. You can usually find a spot within a block away as it’s located on the corner of the block.
