Gold Point

In 2019, Bar Fausto became Gold Point under new owners, a group that’s also behind the Squire Lounge, the Matchbox and the 715 Club. The space includes comfy couches in a front lounge area and a large patio complete with a van that’s been converted to an outdoor bar. While Gold Point specializes in craft […]

Great Divide Brewing Co.

With seventeen Great American Beer Festival awards and five World Beer Cup awards — not to mention a number-seven ranking in Beer Advocate‘s 2009 All-Time Top Breweries on Planet Earth — it’s quite clear that Great Divide knows a few things about making great beer. And there’s no better way to experience one of the […]

The Greenwich

Originally from Greeley, Delores Tronco was part of the local dining scene for years before moving to New York City, where she opened the Banty Rooster. While that venture ultimately shut down because of COVID, it led to something new: a return to Denver, where Tronco opened the NYC-inspired Greenwich in RiNo. In 2024, Tronco […]

Guard and Grace

Chef/restaurateur Troy Guard debuted Guard and Grace in 2013, and it instantly became one of Denver’s top steak destinations – no mean feat in a town known for its beef. A modern approach to service, plating and the meat itself – grass-fed and dry-aged steaks are offered alongside grain-fed choices – has kept the posh […]

Hapa Sushi Grill & Sake Bar

Hapa Sushi is essentially a fusion restaurant, offering sliders, nachos and Fuji-apple-and-bleu-cheese salads on the one hand, poke don, kanpyo maki and a small spread of sashimi on the other. It caters quite deliberately to rookies, actually naming a section of the menu “Beginner Sushi Rolls,” which is followed by “Intermediate” and then flows right […]

Harry’s Bar & Grill

Sitting in a prime location on the first floor of the luxurious Magnolia Hotel on 17th Street, Harry’s offers an intimate seating area in which to relax and […]

Hayter’s & Co.

The 6,200-square-foot space that was formerly Lizard’s Bar & Grill is now Hayter’s & Co., a sports bar with a throwback feel that’s definitely planning for a long future in Denver. Hanging on one wall are framed, enlarged baseball cards of players from the ’70s and ’80s, including Rollie Fingers, Pete Ladd and Bruce Sutter; […]

Hello Darling

This bright, plant-filled space in Riverfront Park is the perfect place to meet friends for coffee and conversation by day and for cocktails and relaxation by night. The cocktail options are divided by spirit type, so it’s easy to decide what to order, whether it’s a whiskey night (go for the Old Fashioned) or you’re […]

Herb’s Hideout

Herb’s has worn many hats throughout its long, long (it was erected in 1933) tenure: dive, cougar bar, live-music dance hall, a place to escape LoDo douchebags. And while we can’t promise that it won’t violate any and all aforementioned descriptors upon entry, the historic tavern remains a go-to respite from its gentrified surroundings. Yes, […]

High Point Creamery

High Point owners Erika Thomas and Chad Stutz formulate each batch of their ice cream with the minds of chefs and the spirits of giddy children. So nearly every flavor has a little surprise, whether it’s the curious hint of miso in the cherry-chocolate or the bursts of violet fudge that hide in a creamy […]
