Telegraph closed this week, after a two-year run in a space at 295 South Pennsylvania that had already swallowed up several other restaurants, including Cafe|Bar and Grey Cactus. A few readers like Nikki blamed the closing on the “crappy location,” but others suggest a more likely culprit: value, or lack thereof.
This was a busy and varied week for restaurant openings, with two coffee shops, Denver’s first distillery-restaurant, an experimental cocktail lab and a bar that sells collectible footwear all joining the dining scene. Red Sauce, from the owner of Bistro Barbes, also started serving up old-school Italian in Park Hill,…
Plug the address 1380 Horizon Avenue in Lafayette into Google Street View and you’ll see little other than a vast, grassy hill with views of the surrounding countryside and the Rocky Mountains to the west. The plot of land is one of the highest points in the area — and…
The craft-beer industry prides itself on collaboration and congeniality, so it’s always disheartening to see two small companies, especially those in Colorado, go after each other in court. But in the end, business is business. On November 3, Epic Brewing, based in Salt Lake City, Utah, filed suit in US. District Court…
After more than a year and a half, Chris Graves is finally ready to celebrate the opening of his new coffee shop, the second location of the Bardo Coffee House, at 6150 West 38th Avenue in Wheat Ridge. When Graves opened the first Bardo (named for the Tibetan limbo between death and…
The lights flashed on the stage at Red Rocks Amphitheater. A soft melody began to play, echoing in the dark, empty space. The only other sounds came from the clinking of glass and murmurs of marvel drifting up from the small group of bartenders, media and other lucky folks who…
Veteran’s Day is this Saturday, so military personnel will want to pay particular attention to this calendar for four great deals. The rest of us should tune in, too; there are plenty of eclectic (and some downright odd) food and drink events from Friday, November 10, through Sunday, November 12…
It’s been nearly a year since Helliemae’s Caramel maven Ellen Daehnick first rolled out Post Oak Hall in the Wheat Ridge building at 6195 West 44th Avenue where she makes candy. There, she sells her caramels — mainstays like sea salt and the Whiskey Love Bomb, in addition to seasonal…
I found myself at Sancho’s Broken Arrow (741 East Colfax Avenue) with a friend on a recent Saturday afternoon and realized that the last time I had been in was quite a while ago — too long ago, really. The bar was comfortingly familiar and seemed somehow untouched by the hands…
Nearly three years have passed since word first came down that Williams & Graham and Occidental owner Sean Kenyon was teaming up with Matchbox proprietors Justin Anthony and Lisa Vedovelli to open American Bonded in a defunct catering space at 2706 Larimer Street in RiNo. “It’s been a long difficult construction…
Just a few years ago, Lorena Cantarovici was selling empanadas and other South American baked goods out of her home, but today she’s celebrating big news. Venture capital firm Colorado Impact Fund has agreed to infuse Maria Empanada, Cantarovici’s small group of Argentinian cafes, with up to $3.5 million in…
The Colorado Brewers Guild is hosting the first Colorado Craft Brewers Summit, a conference and trade show on Monday, November 13, at Metro State University. The goal is to get brewers to learn from each other, as well as from experts in fields with which they may not have much familiarity.
After a series of construction delays, Anecdote on Capitol Hill has softly opened for business. The cafe, at 955 Bannock Street fills the hole left in the Capitol Hill coffee scene when Rooster and Moon shuttered its doors last September after eight years in business.
Everyone loves sandwiches. They’re satisfying, easy to eat on the go and often very reasonably priced. While many believe a sandwich must contain cheese and meat between the bread to be satisfying, there are plenty of vegan options in Denver. Check out these ten tasty plant-based sandwiches. The Breakfast Sandwich…
Two Colorado breweries landed on Outside Magazine’s annual list of the 100 Best Places to Work this year, and while New Belgium Brewing in Fort Collins has been in the list before, this is the first time for Durango’s Ska Brewing. The company, which has 72 employees making an average…
We went with our hearts and bellies, thinking about restaurants we’d miss if they disappeared and remembering what wakes us up in the middle of the night with undeniable cravings. So read up and then eat up: Here are 100 restaurants for you to discover — or to return to again and again.
Two years ago, restaurateur Chris Sargent opened his second Denver eatery, Telepraph, at 295 South Pennsylvania Street as a followup to Brazen, which opened a year earlier in West Highland. But Telegraph is now closed, according to a message on the restaurant’s Facebook page: Dear Guests We would love to…
Many young transplants know only the big white tents of Denver International Airport as the city’s aviation hub. But before DIA opened in 1995 (behind schedule, of course), Denver’s main airport was called Stapleton, and it was located in what is now the Stapleton neighborhood (which makes sense, right?). Most…
The Bubba Chinos at 160 Federal Boulevard made a sudden exit about a month ago, leaving seekers of cheap, overstuffed burritos and spackle-thick green chile out in the cold. But Terry Dikeman, who owns the building, as well as Dandy Dan’s just a block away, isn’t crying over spilt queso…
Renegade Brewing, which was founded in 2011 amid a wave of new taprooms, has sold a large stake of its business to an investment company called Silver Fox Partners, run by former Xerox CEO Ann Mulcahy. The change will allow the brewery to expand its barrel-aged beers offerings, add to…
Denver is about to get its first distillery-restaurant; the Family Jones Spirit House will open on Saturday, November 11, from a group that has already helped shape the modern landscape of Lower Highland, including Paul Tamburello, owner of Little Man Ice Cream and Generator Development.
