Pick the kind of place you want and the part of Denver you are in. Each guide in the Denver Food and Drink Guide covers one kind of place in one part of the city: brunch and breakfast, coffee, bars, cocktails, wine and beer.
Guides by Kind of Place and Neighborhood
Start with the kind of place. Denver brunch and breakfast guides sit apart from Denver coffee shops, and Denver bars and cocktails have their own pages, as do Denver wine and beer. Then narrow by neighborhood, so the page you open covers the blocks you are actually standing on.
Casa Bonita and Rocket Fizz
Casa Bonita is a Mexican restaurant in Lakewood, Colorado, known for its lakeside setting, cliff divers and unique dining experience. Rocket Fizz is a novelty bottled soft drink and candy store, with a variety of candies and unique soda pop flavors. One is a restaurant built around a sit-down meal, the other a shop for soda and candy.
How the Guides Are Built
Each page is built from the address, hours, features and parking or transit notes held for each place. Places are not ranked, so no place is called the best. A line that cannot be supported is left out rather than guessed, and every page is reviewed before it is published.
