The FoCo cafe is not just a great place to grab lunch, they're also an organization that makes our community a better place. They operate a pay what you can model where you can get a meal for free if you're in need, pay what you can, pay full cost, or pay it forward. It's a great opportunity to eat a delicious meal while supporting people who need help.Today I had a toasted coconut shrimp salad and bahn mi tacos. It's all locally sourced and fresh. It tastes good and you feel good eating it.

Grateful for this place! Most large communities need this type of establishment. Love courses through here. You will be full and happy. ?

I had lunch here a couple of weeks ago and it was so fresh and delicious! Service is quick if you are in a hurry, and the produce is some of the freshest I have ever had. It is also nice to know you are giving back to the local community when you support this wonderful Non-Profit organization. If you are near Old Town Fort Collins and just need a quick, healthy, and immensely, satisfying lunch that makes your body and soul feel good, then come to FOCO Café.

Favorite foods oven roasted potatoes and oven roasted cabbage, egg salad sandwiches. Folks FOCO is good again. The lettuce in the salad is FRESH. You will get more than food, you will get to DREAM and life without measure. Seize the day by donating to the hungry NOW. Make your contribution and feed yourself. Add to the FOCO community. Michelle and Hallie are maximizing potential creativity. The outside eating area has expanded. Music is re-emerging. Life can be so much more than a commercial eatery; it can be INCLUSIVE. Fort Collins has buried and stigmatized everything that that is forgotten by gentrification. What tastes the best? Sharing does. Hope tastes good. Art tastes good. Thanks FOCO.

Great food and always a wonderful place to volunteer!! Thank you to the friendly staff!

Edit: OP was 5 yrs ago., when Jeff & Kathleen were in charge. Can’t give them a positive review anymore. They have betrayed their mission and thoughtlessly put people at risk who were depending on them for survival. Again, capitalism wins. The food can be good sometimes — check em out. I just can’t be involved anymore. I put my heart & soul into the community that came together around the cafe & garden. Then I was discarded, along with all the other ppl who relied on them for sustenance. They did not handle the original covid outbreak well, and they continue to erect barriers to block out the people this cafe was originally created to serve.My earlier 5-star review: This place has been a lifesaver -- superb organic food with gluten-free options at a time when my resources are extremely limited. I'm deeply grateful for access to such good nutrition, served with joy, and obviously created with loving mindfulness.

What an amazing heart-focused restaurant. My favorite quote posted in the restaurant, “All people need a hand up at some point in their lives”

A fantastic place with friendly staff, and a philanthropic angle you can't beat!

This place is the best hidden jewel in Colorado! Super healthy and delicious!
