A “wine café” that serves approachably delicious Italian inspired food. It’s hard to explain, but it’s very good. I recommend getting a flight of their amazing bruschetta.

Snooze is always packed, but for good reason – it’s amazing. They have really unique pancake flavors and breakfast tacos that will blow your mind. They don’t take reservations, but it’s really close so I always head over first thing when I wake up, put my name in, go home to get ready, then head over. I’d highly recommend it.

This is the place I texted you about. They have really great burgers and fries that will blow your mind. I recommend getting a dual basket of sweet potato fries and truffle fries. I’m not normally a truffle fry fan, but these are my exception. Highly recommend it.

Best bar in Denver for day drinking...if you're into that kind of thing... Great drinks, pretty solid appetizers, and more yard games than you could think of. It's the go-to spot on a sunny afternoon or before a Rockies game.
