The Plimoth

Insanely large breakfast items. I recommend the Franklin with an egg on top, the DBC Club or my personal favorite the biscuit pot pie. They also serve great pizza and have a full bar.

My favorite sandwich shop in the city. They have a secret menu (shhh) and my two favorite items are on it, The "Supreme" and the "Buffalo Chicken" should not be missed.

2669 Larimer StThis place is great. Has lots of food options, a cafe, a bar, a bakery. It's very hip and has a cool atmosphere.
Such a great, unique and delicious place to go. Every time I go I think to myself "this will be a little more pricey" and then we order everything and more. Everyone gets overly full and the bill comes and it's so reasonable. It's a great place and you're guaranteed to have a good time. Pro-tip, head upstairs the Ramble Hotel (attached) where "curiosity awaits" and find a very nice outdoor bar with one of my favorite art pieces in Denver (it's a neon sign).

This is a bit of an anomaly. It's a bar, but there are about 8 different food options in the form of food trucks/carts inside. It's a cool, communal area that is always interesting.
