Breakfast

Great spot for breakfast or lunch, but be sure to get there early to avoid a big line (or use UBER eats to have it delivered to the house and enjoy a wonderful breakfast in the backyard)

This is our favourite brunch spot. Not a huge space though, so you need to get your name on the waitlist often in order to get a table on weekends. Not a huge menu, but super tasty

Great sunsets on the back upstairs deck, but fun to sit on the front patio too. For cooler nights they turn on their propane fires. They have a golden stout sometimes on tap that we absolutely love

Great to head to Larimer Square for drinks or dinner. Book a reservation or go earlier (also can go for an awesome happy hour) to get a spot out on the street under the lights. We really like Osteria Marco in Larimer Square.

Food scene

Hands-down best croissants in town at the bakery Izzio - especially the ham and cheese or the chocolate ones. Local ice cream company, with neat flavors - great to get a cone and go check out the graffiti behind the market. Central Market also has a great butcher or a seafood place if you want to make a meal at the house too

Great restaurant, but make sure you make a reservation if you have a group. Very popular restaurant (but for good reason). This place is a bit loud, so better for groups rather than a couple looking for a quiet night.

Great date spot. We love the nice patio, and love how close of a walk it is from the house. Happy hour is our favourite - recommend the $5 margaritas, the queso, and the nachos.

This place is so delicious and great patio/atmosphere. This is especially good for families. Lots of tables and space All of the food is fantastic, but highly recommend Aloo Gobi, the chowmein, tikka masala, and the chai . Oh and of course get garlic naan! After getting some good food head for a walk around the beautiful town of Golden and walk on the river. Or if it’s the right season rent some tubes and tube down!

Sightseeing

Not sure this is the best rental place, but there are a few in a Golden. Or buy some at Walmart or target before heading there (don’t forget a pump). But grab some tubes and head down for some river rafting. Best to go in late June and July .

In Rino (and all around Denver) there is so much great art murals. We recommend downloading the Lime or Bird apps and then using it to get some scooters (there are always lots near us on Larimer or over on Welton) and going to check out all the amazing pieces. Start in the alley behind central market and go from there all around. You can check out online to look for some from famous artists.

Really wouldn’t be a trip to Denver without heading to Red Rocks. Go during the day and it’s open and free to wander around, and there is a nice and decent hike around the area. Of course you should always check out the concert schedule and see if you can get a ticket to a show, but they can quickly sell out

Not as much of a spot for locals, but definitely worth checking out and only a short drive or scooter (using Lime or Bird apps) away. Lots of stores and restaurants.

One of the best stadiums in North America in our opinion. Even if you aren’t a big baseball fan, it’s worth going to check out a game and seeing the view of the mountains at sunset. If you don’t want to spend a lot of money you can get tickets in the “Rockpile”, which are benches compared to individual seats. No view of the mountains from these seats, but you still get a great experience for very little cost (around $10-15)

When you head downtown you should plan for a stop in at Union Station, the historic transit hub with award winning restaurants and wonderful patios. Definitely an iconic Denver spot you shouldn’t miss.

Local pool

Pool a couple of streets down in the really nice Curtis Park. With Covid protocol they have added swim blocks and it gets quite busy, so we’d recommend going when it opens- or if you are an adult try and go for the morning lap swim at 9am

If it looks like there will be a good sunset this is a nice place to go. Never tried the food, but often just go for a glass of wine and to check out the sunset
