The Saint Mary Bar

When longtime dive bar Barry’s on Broadway closed after a two-decade run, regulars mourned the loss and fretted about what would become of the place. As it turns out, there was no need to worry, because veteran Barry’s employee Becca Roman and bar pro Melanie Brush took it over, giving the space a nice – […]

Saint Patrick’s Brewing Company

We are a lager-centric craft brewery located in Littleton, Colorado. Why do we only brew lagers? We find that lagers are more subtle, can be more complex, are crisp on your palate, and easier to drink than ales. Our brewer, Chris Phelps creates over 100 varieties of traditional lagers and creatively crafted experimental lagers re-inventing […]

Saj Mediterranean Grill

This breezy, fast-casual Middle Eastern joint inhabits a prominent corner of the Streets at SouthGlenn, serving up shawarma, kabobs and hummus to patrons passing through its line. Those diners then fill wooden tables in the dining room or, in the warm months, crowd the patio, spilling onto the streets. The spot’s name comes from a […]

Salita

After closing longtime Larimer Square speakeasy Green Russell in 2022, the Bonanno Concepts restaurant group debuted a new bar in Cap Hill where many of the former Green Russell staff continue to show off their cocktail expertise. In the mornings, Salita functions as a welcoming spot to get a caffeine buzz; at night, boozy creations […]

Salsa’s

The kind of Mexican place that makes Denver an eatin’ town. Everything is good, but watch for the fresh seafood specials, particularly the hearty shellfish soups bursting with flavor.

Salt the Bistro

Located in the former Tom’s Tavern space, the iconic Boulder burger joint and bar that occupied the corner at 1047 Pearl Street for fifty years, Salt is chef/owner Bradford Heap’s “Johnny Local” bistro, a pasture-to-plate restaurant that utilizes the bounty from local purveyors. In his exhibition kitchen, Heap turns out flat breads, roasted vegetables and […]

Salvaggio’s Italian Delicatessen

When you’re talking about a true Italian deli experience, it’s only the meat that matters. At Salvaggio’s, the countermen understand this. No one’s there for conversation at this spartan, six-table Boulder storefront. The customers come for the sandwiches – in particular, a nice prosciutto on a roll or the fantastic red bells and mozz – […]

Sam’s Bar & Lounge

Many of Denver’s longtime dives have been renovated into shiny shadows of their former selves, often transformed into hangouts for hipsters. We’re betting you won’t find a single hipster at Sam’s Bar & Lounge, a watering hole that opened on Leetsdale Drive 66 years ago. You won’t find any wi-fi, either; as one message on […]

Sam’s No. 3

The origins of Sam’s No. 3 date back to 1920, when Sam Armatas started offering his Coney Island favorites in Denver. Over the next nine decades, the empire grew and shrank and shrank still more, until it was down to just one Sam’s No. 3, located in Aurora. Currently, there are two locations, both with […]

Sam’s No. 3

In 2004, Sam, Alex and Patrick Armatas brought the family business back to the same downtown block where it started decades ago. While the Aurora outpost shuttered at the end of 2023 following 25 years in business, a second location in Glendale remains. Alongside the Coney Island favorites that made Sam’s popular in the 1920s, […]

SAME Cafe

Soup, pizzas, cookies and the occasional chalkboard special: These things are the marks of a good cafe. You’ll find all of those and more at SAME, which stands for “So All May Eat.” This spot isn’t just a good cafe; it’s a good deed in action. The food here doesn’t come with a price tag, […]

Samosa Shop at Honor Farm

Chef Dave Hadley launched Samosa Shop in September 2020 and has been popping up at various farmers’ markets ever since, gaining a following for his modern spin on Indian classics, including creative samosas. In December 2023, he opened up inside downtown’s Honor Farm, and now, in addition to samosas, he serves such dishes as the […]
