New Belgium Spoke

Concourse B stands for Beer. The wing of DIA dedicated to United has an ample array of grab-and-go options, but the best spot to sit down for a meal is in the gate B80-95 area. New Belgium has graced this odd location with a wonderful pub, decorating the cool, industrial-looking open space with bicycle parts. […]

The New Climax Lounge

Climax Lounge celebrated its fortieth birthday in 2011 (around the time the name was changed to the New Climax Lounge), proving that time flies when you’re having fun. The joint has a colorful past: In the ’90s, as the Raven, it hosted punk-rock acts; the Fray and M. Ward have also played there. These days […]

New Image Brewing

Is Arvada becoming the new neighborhood for great drinking? Just a couple of blocks from School House Kitchen & Libations, New Image Brewing pours barrel-aged beers brewed in-house, featuring creative styles for adventurous palates (think two different Brett saisons). But there’s also a full bar featuring cocktails made with beer ingredients, so you’ll find, for […]

New Saigon Bakery & Deli

While now-shuttered neighbor New Saigon offered a phonebook-sized menu with every possible combo of protein, noodle, rice and sauce, its spinoff, New Saigon Bakery, draws regulars with super-sized banh mi on house-baked French baguettes. Salty-sweet barbecued pork, luscious pâté and generous stacks of deli meats make for stellar sandwiches. Beyond banh mi, there are also […]

New Terrain Brewing Company

With a dog park, bike park, major hiking trails and a mountain out its back door, it’s no wonder New Terrain is the busiest brewery in the area. Jokes will be made about children and dogs, but the vibe is very much about outdoor fun. If you don’t mind a crowd, even on weekdays, you […]

New York Deli News

New York Deli News is Denver’s answer to the famed Carnegie Deli of Manhattan, with a few important differences. Although the plates are substantial, typically heaped with corned beef, pastrami and brisket imported from New York, they’re not huge – and neither is the bill. More significantly, the servers are friendly and patient, giving diners […]

New York Pizzeria

Step through the doors of Denver’s New York Pizzeria and you’re stepping through the doors of a true New York pizzeria — and into the world of good pizza men. The smell of hot ovens, sweating dough, sweet tomatoes and charred baking flour is as unmistakable as it is universal. The pizzas are perfect New […]

Newman Center for the Performing Arts

Not only is the Newman Center for the Performing Arts a jewel box of a venue, with its three intimate performance spaces and elegant balconied plaza, but it also plays host to one of the finest college concert series in this or any other city. The building itself is a beauty, built for the ages […]

ND Streetbar

ND Streetbar (formerly the Kitchen Next Door and then Next Door American Eatery) is a casual offshoot of the Kitchen, the high-end, community-oriented bistro founded in Boulder over a decade ago. There are now three outposts in Boulder, Denver’s Union Station and the Central Park neighborhood. All are hip, community-oriented and casual, with an emphasis […]

The Nickel

When the Nickel opened mid-summer 2014 in the Hotel Teatro, it had a big void to fill, created when Prima and Restaurant Kevin Taylor closed to make way for a complete remodel of the hotel’s ground floor. With only one restaurant to serve the hotel and its guests as well as hungry theater-goers and Denverites […]
