Support the independent voice of Denver and help keep the future of Westword free.
Crave Real Burgers opened its first location on July 4, 2010. Today the Colorado company will sell its one-millionth burger — or close enough — sometime between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m., when the magic moment will be announced. In the meantime, the three Crave locations will be celebrating this milestone all day, giving customers 50 percent off their meal and a free T-shirt; Crave is also be selling a special "adult" version of its Millionaire Shake.
Crave now has locations in Highlands Ranch and Colorado Springs, as well as the original in Castle Rock. (It is not connected to Crave Dessert Bar & Lounge downtown.) A fourth location will open at 1550 Blake Street in September. Last year it was the big winner at the Denver Burger Battle.

Keep Westword Free... Since we started Westword, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Denver, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Denver with no paywalls.
