Yes, My Brother’s Bar has a fascinating history: The building has housed a bar since the 1870s; Beat inspiration Neal Cassady hung out here when it was Paul’s Place; as My Brother’s Bar, it’s survived with no TVs while playing classical music and serving as a neighborhood joint for the whole city. But the most […]

Showing 4511 - 4521 of 4521For more than forty years, Marilyn Megenity hosted the town’s most eclectic party at the Mercury Cafe, her club/cafe/community gathering place. Although it’s now owned by entrepreneur Danny Newman, he’s vowed to keep the Merc instact as an institution known as much for its enlightening entertainment options – plays, poetry slams, tango parties – as […]
It’s been three decades since restaurateur Dave Query launched the first Jax Fish House in Boulder, proving that people in landlocked Colorado are hungry for fresh seafood – which we have easy access to thanks to DIA’s role as a hub for shipments from both U.S. coasts and beyond. The downtown Denver outpost opened in […]
When you’re in the mood to dine with distinction, there’s no better place than Ellyngton’s. Tucked into a corner of the Brown Palace, this restaurant is all old-world swank and old-school class – a bastion of the sort of jacket-and-tie dining that’s becoming rare in this fast-casual world. Prices are expensive, but the experience is […]
After occupying a sunny yellow space on 13th Street for over 25 years, a kitchen fire forced breakfast spot Dozens to shutter in 2022. Two years later, it’s been resurrected just a few blocks away, with its previous menu and many of its former staff returning. Whether you’re after an omelet, a sandwich, rancheros, a […]
Anthony’s is a homegrown pizza empire, and it got its start in this space on California Street that was previously home to another New York-style slice purveyor. Perhaps for that reason, it has more of a vintage feel than most of the other locations that have come since. Inside the small storefront, you might actually […]
The casual, kitschy Crown Burgers has been around since 1987, when George Brokalakis opened the place with the same name and menu as a small chain founded in Salt Lake City, where he lived before moving to the Mile High. But this place is pure Denver: Both inside the dining room and from the drive-thru […]
The Cherry Tomato is a comfortable place with cracked-tile floors and rough brick walls, a bar crowded with locals and a young, eager staff. The cooks work in an open foxhole of a kitchen, preparing a menu that’s simple and ageless: homemade minestrone, caprese salad, pasta marinara, amatriciana and Alfredo, two kinds of lasagna, and […]
There’s a horseshoe-shaped bar in the middle of the restaurant and bowling trophies all around, but it’s the pizza that has created a cult following for this decades-old neighborhood tavern. The pizza, and the schooners. Perhaps the most festively shaped drinking vessel known to man, schooners are like giant, rounded margarita glasses perfectly suited to […]
Over nearly eight decades, the Cherry Cricket has morphed from smoky bar into burger institution, even as Cherry Creek has gentrified around it. The Cricket is beloved by chefs, musicians, Creekers, night creatures and neighbors for its smoky, char-grilled patties and the lengthy list of toppings with which you can personalize them, from sauerkraut to […]
Rock Bottom Restaurants steamrolled Denver years ago with its train-inspired microbrewery. But there’s much more here than beer, including a snazzy dining room and a roster of well-executed dishes. There’s nothing innovative about the classic steakhouse menu; you’ll just find red meat in all its variations (strip, sirloin, porterhouse, filet), seared to perfection. Throw in […]
