Denver 馃彊
Food scene
Linger is still one of my favorites after 5 years of living in Denver. They have an amazing rooftop bar with great views of the city and a truly unique tapas style menu from around the world. The decor is quirky and slightly morbid which is inspired by the fact that it was the location of 'Olinger's' mortuary in the past. Definitely make a reservation in advance if planning to go for a weekend dinner!

Another Denver favorite, Machete is just steps from the beautiful Union Station in downtown Denver. This would be a great lunch or dinner stop after strolling downtown for the afternoon. They have great tacos, quesadillas and some of the best homemade salsas I've ever had!

Work & Class offers delicious share style plates and cocktails. The location is rather small and off of the very lively Larimer street in RiNo ( River North Arts District) and I don't believe they offer reservations so go early or prepare to wait.

Mercantile is a great stop for lunch- it's market style where you can order truly delicious salads and sandwiches, but also find different stations with desserts, cheeses, meats, breads etc. to take home with you. At night it transforms into an upscale restaurant with great wine selections.

If you're not good at making food decisions and you like a lively environment - look no further than Avanti. Another warehouse style eatery, it offers communal space with permanent food trucks so you can peruse and choose your favorite eats (you'll find Cuban eats, Poke, Pizza, French Cafe, etc.) and a communal bar. Your party can all grab what they want and meet up to eat together.

A fun new marketplace in the heart of Lower Downtown. There are a lot of little businesses inside a long with many permanent food trucks (our favorite is Lou鈥檚 Hot and Naked chicken sandwiches! ) and a coffee shop. Check out the back alley that is decorated and very cute and on the other side is another building with even more little shops. Fun to check out.

Confluence Park is right in downtown along the Platte River. There鈥檚 a great trail that goes alongside the Platte River with some nice art murals and is a nice way to suspend some time outdoors but still have access to downtown and lower highlands area.

A hip bar on Market St downtown (Market is the primary going out street downtown). They bring out ping-pong tables earlier in the night and has a fun energy - it can get pretty packed and loud though.

If you鈥檙e looking for a crazy night out on the town - ViewHouse is definitely a hot spot on Friday and Saturday nights. They have a big dance floor and outdoor patio and are right next to Coors baseball stadium. Would say the crowd skews a little younger there and at the bars directly next to it - as you go further away from it down Blake St the crowd gets a little older.
