A fan favorite breakfast/bunch spot. With multiple locations, Snooze is well-known around town for the great food and fun atmosphere. They don't take reservations and can get quite busy on the weekends so we recommend going early to put your name in and then exploring around town; they'll text you when your table is ready to head back!

A wonderful spot for breakfast/brunch. Delicious homemade biscuits with a variety of breakfast sammies and a solid bloody mary. They are also connected to a pizza joint that serves a great slice. This location on Broadway is a good part of town to explore as it has lots of restaurants and shops.

Delicious Italian food, but a bit on the pricier side. Great location right across from Union Station, which is a great place to grab a fancy drink afterward. We've also had wonderful service every time we've been.

An absolutely breathtaking hike. We always bring visiting friends and family on this trail. Be cognizant of the altitude and wear good hiking shoes - this trail is short but very steep and rocky. The view at the top of the lake and mountain range is one of our favorites. It's also a quick drive from Denver and an easy day trip for some exploring!

Another fantastic hike that isn't far from Denver! A bit harder to find so make sure you have the trailhead location pulled up before you lose service. A pretty short there and back hike with a cool waterfall along the trail that ends at the canyon for some lovely water views.
