A little ways away, but worth the drive! The kind of Mexican that gives you bottomless chips and salsa, margaritas by the 64oz tube and food so good you won't need a to-go box.

Our 10/10 go-to for happy hour. It's hard to argue with $3 wines, $1 off drafts, $7 cheeseburger meal and $3 crispy fries that will make you commit to a relationship. Alyssa digs the house wine (red or white, she doesn't discriminate) and Ryan likes a good 'ol draft beer or whiskey coke.

Our total fave for a fun drink on the town. Brooklyn's is a tasting room disguised as a habadashery. Sorry, you can't buy any ties, only phenomenal specialty cocktails. Alyssa sticks to gin, Ryan leans into whiskey - both made in house by local lee's spirits.

Is it possible to love something even more than happy hour? For us, it is, and we've found it in local coffee shops. The coffee culture in Colorado Springs is unique in its camaraderie between shops - each one encourages the other and pushes them in their craft. You'll find an enjoyable atmosphere in any location!

Red Rock Canyon has a variety of hiking options available for a range of abilities! There are easy hikes suitable for families to walk through in the Open Space. Our favorite is to hike within the Section 16 area - the trailhead is in a different location, so if you'd like to explore these moderate hikes you'll want to search for "Red Rocks Section 16" in your maps!
