Choppers Custom Salads

There are “chef’s choice” salads at Choppers Custom Salads for those who might not be fully on board with the concept of customization – and they’re delicious salads, made with fresh ingredients chopped up with rocking blades into bite-sized pieces that get tossed in dressing before landing in your bowl (and, eventually, your mouth). But […]

Chopstix Fusion

The word ‘fusion’ can be a red flag for diners looking for pure flavors undiluted by American or European tastes, but in the case of Chopstix, which opened in May, it’s simply an indication that you’ll find a smattering of Thai dishes on a menu that otherwise offers a deep taste of Hong Kong – […]

Chronorado Medical

Not every pot shop needs publicity or an online presence to thrive in today’s weed market. Some still rely on the old tricks, like potent products and helpful service. And Chronorado, a medical-only dispensary open since 2010, has more than a few old tricks up its sleeve. Managers have been known to chat with patients […]

The Original Chubby’s Burger Drive-Inn

Denver transplants, heed our advice: Acquire an opinion on green chile, and quickly, for no food in the Mile High City is as fervently debated among friends. While many greens are contenders, the Chubby’s chile is legendary. Stella Cordova took over the Chubby Burger Drive-Inn in the 1960s, keeping the burgers and fries and adding […]

Chuburger

Oskar Blues Brewery calls its newest dining concept “craft-casual,” to emphasize that while Chuburger, which opened in spring 2013 in Longmont, has a fast-casual setup, the food you get when you order at this cool spot is very different. The foundation of the menu is the classic Chuburger, made from cows raised on the fifty-acre […]

Chuey Fu’s started as a food truck; it now has two Denver locations where diners can find a mash-up of Latin and Asian flavors. While the menu boasts straightforward dishes like guacamole and pho, we prefer tacos topped with ancho-chile chicken with sesame-peanut sauce, seared ahi tuna or Korean-style beef. Its most famous offering: A […]

Chula

Longtime Broadway eatery 4G’s rebranded and changed its name to Chula in early 2023 — only to promptly close after a car accident resulted in severe damage to the building. After a number of permitting delays and the addition of our outside patio, the spot reopened just in time for Cinco de Mayo, with the […]

Church of Cupcakes

Have you had your daily prayer? If not, there are far worse ways to worship than licking the chocolate frosting off a devil’s food cupcake. Denver’s own Church of Cupcakes invites all supplicants to sample its sinful treats; owner Porche Lovely is a true believer in organic, eco-friendly and locally sourced ingredients and packaging. The […]

Churchill Bar

If you want a taste of the luxe life and can’t afford a meal at the Palace Arms, what to do? Go to Churchill Bar in the Brown Palace, where you can experience many of the amenities available next door, at a slightly more reasonable price. The menu offers a solid sampling of burgers, upscale […]
