Food Scene

Live like a local...you'll feel immediately at home at St Mark's! They have indoor and outdoor seating - you can bring your dog with you if you like. Open from early till bar close, they are a twin with the next door bar with the Thin Man bar, stop in late for coffee and a drink. St Mark's has wonderful baked goods - try their coconut croissants with their house special frozen coffee drink.

Local landmark, known for high end diner food. They've been featured more than a 100 times on national television. They aren't cheap, but well worth it. Their food is exceptional, and it's one of the places that I think everyone should visit while in Denver. They are open very late, and my husband Jim likes to say that they put alcohol in milkshakes :)

Best sammies in Denver, hands down. It's essentially a "pot themed" Subway. They have bread made especially for them, the highest quality meats and cheeses. We recommend the "5-0", it's "all pig", have it made their way, with chipotle mayo and giardianara peppers. We've recommended this to hundreds of guests and most who go, will go back at least once during their stay, it's that good!

Hands down, our favorite restaurant in the city. The best Mexican food I've ever had! We went initially for their mole and Chile rellenos (lighter than air).I've never liked mole, their's is nontraditional. They do a flight of their four sauces and they are all incredible. We've gone back and each time asked for more recommendations. Their Puerco Colorado (pork cooked in red chilis) is succulent and incredible, but the most mouthwatering item on the menu is their Mocajete - it's served in a bubbling cauldron. a fragrant, deeply flavored broth that words cannot do justice comes out with shrimp and beef and chicken with vegetables and large chunks of cheese - incredible!

Hip store with a never ending array of personalized and Colorado style gifts. I've made this one of my "go to" stores when I need a gift for hard to buy for people. Ladies LOVE this store when I recommend it. It's also in a great strip of stores on South Broadway, so add on some extra time to wander around, there are some great restaurants and other shops in the surrounding blocks.

Drinks & Nightlife

One of the best underground music venues in Denver. Known for their "after" parties for the touring bands that come through all of the major venues, from Red Rocks, to the Ogden, Fillmore, Blue Bird, etc, those bands, come here after their shows for late parties. They also have great music for their evening shows. Can get rowdy and a little out of hand, so keep that in mind!

Great speakeasy that will speak to your sophisticated side. Dress up and go, it's a great kick off to a night to remember...or quickly lose yourself in the colorful and delightful concoctions of the talented mixologists in this bar below decks in Larimer Square.

Sightseeing

Amazing music venue that's also a great place to hike during the day. An incredible formation of rocks and views of Denver from afar that you'll never forget. Many concerts here throughout our fair-weather months, and movies across summer nights. Incredible acoustic qualities to this amphitheater nestled among bright red rock formations.
