With the beginning of Lent, our Catholic brothers and sisters are turning to a time of reflection and abstention of the things of the world and how they walk in it. One of the annual traditions is a Friday Fish Fry and Loveland is full of options for that feast. Keep in mind, this is not an exhaustive list, but these are the ones we’ve found so far!
Paxton’s Grill has a delicious fried fish meal that has a lot os fish and accompanying fries. We enjoyed the dinner portion for …

Whether you enjoy the breakfast sandwiches, the egg salad sandwiches, the delicious soups or their selection of wines, it’s time to welcome back Robert & Julie to Historic Loveland!
Gone since Christmas, they return March 1st to once again brighten their little corner of Historic Loveland! Last year, Julian’s extended the season by putting out a fire pit and gas heaters. It gave all of us a chance to continue to hear wonderful music and enjoy the food. We expect them to come back strong and rested, ready to tackle even …

Loveland’s fine dining is two years old next week! Tano would like to invite us to celebrate with him, offering incredible meals and delicious wines for just $11 to make his 2nd anniversary special! Check out the details below and we’ll see you on the 11th!

Tano will be sharing a portion of the night’s proceeds with The Loveland Food Pantry and will be giving away prizes. In fact, I’m not sure which I’d rather win, money to eat at Tano’s or a chance to take a class with Tano himself! …

Saturday turned out to be a wonderful day for a festival! Loveland celebrated the 2011 Christmas in Loveland as the residents and businesses turned out in full force. There were lots of smiling faces on children and adults alike. Even though it got a little chilly after the sun went down, the bonfire raged to provide a spot to warm up. In fact, there were firepits at the Cafe, Julians and Paxton’s to keep the crowds from getting too cold to enjoy the night. Here are some of the experiences …

We made it out to the Loveland Farmers Market this week again and caught some photos of the crops that are finally coming in larger quantities. Delicious looking tomatoes, corn and lots of other seasonal vegetables to choose from. It’s exciting to see a Farmers Market here in Loveland. We have a great Krogers here in town, but having the opportunity to pick up fresh, pesticide free locally grown vegetables is a level above what they can offer on a regular basis. More importantly, you can look in the eyes …

Terrell is very excited to have the opportunity to work with The Patio to bring you his mouth watering BBQ! After the shakeup with Blue Chip moving out to Miamiville we’re really glad Terrell can keep a presence here …

Lent is that time of year when the Catholic Churches fire up the deep fryers and we all get to experience some great food. Lent is a solemn time when Christians think about what our Savior has done for us. Meatless Friday’s are a tradition in the Catholic Church, so the Fish Fry eventually became a staple food and a way to raise funds as well.
We have two churches in Loveland that have the art of a fish fry down pat. There’s also more than just fried fish to be …
