I was driving to work from Downtown Loveland to Downtown Windsor in mid-March of 2025, and noticed a new restaurant sign had gone up hear the intersection of Crossroads Boulevard and Fairgrounds Avenue. A ramen restaurant.
The sign for a new ramen restaurant in Loveland, Hokkaido Ramen House, went up on March 12, 2025.
I’d never heard of Hokkaido Ramen House, so I looked them up and found that there were already four in Colorado, including one already in Loveland, but it’s named Bowl Izakaya. That Loveland Bowl Izakaya is one of four (soon five) Bowl Izakayas in the state.
Hokkaido’s website lists Bowl Izakaya’s Loveland location as one of their four restaurants in Colorado; it very confusing, to me. Are the other Bowl Izakaya’s in Colorado not part of Hokkaido?…
