If you thought the block that housed Rosenberg’s Bagels & Delicatessen couldn’t get any better, you’d be wrong. The Rolling Pin Bakeshop opened up just next door to the Denver favorite in fall 2016, upping the carbohydrate quotient of this stretch of Five Points exponentially. Our favorites are the croissants, stuffed with almond paste, chocolate, […]

Colorado is lucky to have many homegrown Mexican chains — but none have been as successful as Santiago’s. And with good reason: This chain, which has twenty locations (and counting), doesn’t just offer great to-go breakfast burritos; it also serves up an absolutely addictive green chile. In mild, medium and hot, it’s tasty enough at […]
For decades, the Sidewinder was a storied Globeville dive, but in December 2012, a group of local musicians, including Fez Garcia (with some help from his folks) took over the spot and gave the bar a bit more hipster cred. Garcia says they’re trying to recapture the vibe of the now-defunct Gabor’s in Capitol Hill: […]

But it also has a far-from-standard burger: the namesake “smashburger,” a half-pound of ground, nicely fatty Angus beef that’s whacked onto the hot steel, producing a flood of meat […]

This casual deli chain got its start in the Vail Valley in 2003 and now has locations in six states, with two in downtown Denver as well as stores in Westminster and Arvada. While Smiling Moose is a blossoming chain, the company runs each location as a local restaurant, staffed by employees who live in […]
Snarf’s Sub Shop, the beloved sandwich spot with a hippie vibe, got its start when Jim Seidel opened his first sub shack in Boulder in 1996. Then, as now, Snarf’s knew to do a few things really right: It has a good filling-to-bread ratio, uses high-quality meats and vegetables, and relies on a broiler to […]

Many MMJ patients sigh in resignation when thinking about the dank, delicious edibles that used to come out of Standing Akimbo (the dispensary doubled as a pot-infused bakery and earned high praise for its goods before ceasing edibles operations in 2013). Today the quaint, peace-loving dispensary is one of the few pot shops that actually […]
