History
Established in 1991.
The Loop was built 1903 and has always been a restaurant and has always been called The Loop. The name was coined because the trollycar from Colorado Springs went around the building and back to the Springs. In the 1920’s and 30’s The Loop was a wild and wolly place that cattered to illegal gambling in the now two apartments overhead. Since then a number of restaurants have thrived in this location including the present day Mexican restaurant.
Every year the local newspaper allows people to vote for their favorite restaurant. The Loop has won over 40 awards during those years including 14 striaght years for the Best Margaritas in Colorado Springs. Over 8,000 people vote every year. We are proud of this!
