Cracker Barrel

Cracker Barrel is a massive chain of combination restaurant/country-store locations that feature a surprisingly well-prepared menu of Southern comfort foods served in gigantic portions at ridiculously low prices. Don’t look for originality or anything outside of the American canon, but if you want hot coffee by the gallon, real buttermilk pancakes served with maple syrup […]

Cracovia

Cracovia celebrated a decade of serving great Polish and Eastern European cuisine in 2018, when we named it Denver’s best German/Eastern European restaurant, but its menu has always been worthy of celebration for those seeking out traditional soups, sausages, peirogi and other hearty and heartwarming dishes. Beets and cabbage play big parts, whether in tightly […]

Crave Real Burgers

Jeff Richard, chef/owner of the Old Stone Church, a New American eatery in Castle Rock, loves old American food, too, and a few years ago he started putting together plans for a burger joint. While continuing to run the Old Stone Church, he leased a strip-mall spot near the Castle Rock shopping outlets, where he […]

The Crawling Crab

The big red crustacean hunched over the Crawling Crab sign on Federal Boulevard lets you know that you’ll be swimming in uncomplicated seafood once you step through the door. And the rest of the decor echoes that promise: Life-sized sharks and pelicans swoop from the ceiling above life preservers, mooring ropes and raw timbers that […]

Crema Coffee House

Crema Coffeehouse draws its name from the rich, caramel-colored foam that caps any decent shot of espresso right after it’s pulled. And that’s the primary job of the baristas at Crema: to pull decent shots of espresso. They also brew coffee from a handful of roasters. Crema is located on Larimer Street, just above the […]

Crimson & Gold Tavern

There’s no denying that Crimson & Gold is a college bar; that would be impossible, since this joint is right next to the University of Denver. But it’s also a reliable neighborhood restaurant, with lots of room for families and other big groups, a 1,400-square-foot back patio and a menu that appeals to just about […]

Crooked Stave Artisan Beer Project

Located inside The Source, the taproom and brewery is a showpiece for Crooked Stave, which has gained national attention for its wild and sour ales over the past two years. Owner Chad Yakobson will be able to expand his repertoire here with other varieties and styles.

Crooked Stave Barrel Cellar

Crooked Stave Barrel Cellar opened in a warehouse business park in September 5, 2012, as an outlet for Chad Yakobson’s Crooked Stave Artisan Beer Project, which he moved from Fort Collins to Denver. Although Yakobson, doesn’t actually brew his beer on site, he does ferment it in wooden barrels with various yeasts and souring agents. […]

Crossroads Theater at Five Points

The historic Five Points area welcomed the Crossroads Theater in 2007. The theater has a hundred seats and serves small, independent performing arts groups that offer everything from music to theater, poetry and storytelling artists.

Crown Burgers

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 […]
