I'm going to claim this as the best Japanese Restaurant I've ever visited... and I've traveled the world extensively including five trips to Japan. If you like Asian food, this is not to be missed.

It's been just over 5 years since Hop Alley made an appearance in Denver with its unique asian-american fusion menu, and since then its racked up a host of awards and accolades. You may be hard pressed to get a table, but by showing up right after they open you can usually find seating for smaller parties. You will not be disappointed.

My new favorite brunch/cafe spot in all of Denver! Excellent menu for breakfast, brunch, snacks, and coffees. Very bohemian vibe with a menu to match- lots of organic and fresh options, "avocado toast" worth the $8 price tag, acai bowls, and really good breakfast burritos. Highly recommended, and just a short walk from the apartment.

A Denver staple with indoor diving performances infamously featured on South Park. Closed down during the pandemic and was subsequently purchased by Trey Parker and Matt Stone- they invested $40 Mil into renovating it, and supposedly hired a James Beard Award-nominated chef to turn the kitchen around. Opening soon (Summer '23!).

One of the more unique (and high-end) dining experiences that Denver has to offer. Reservations may be hard to come by and a meal here will set you back significantly more than the nightly rate you're paying to stay at the apartment, but for special occasions and true foodies it's worth the price if you can swing it! Would highly recommend.

Just a short walk away, you'll enjoy checking out the historic mansions that line the streets on your way there. Cheesman is very safe, even for early morning and late evening strolls. Do a quick Google search about the history of the Park before you go- some very interesting stories on how Cheesman started off as one of Denver's largest cemeteries and legend has it that many of the earliest inhabitants never left...

The Denver Botanic Gardens are worth a visit regardless of the time of the year you're passing through town! If you have the time to walk, go directly East from the apartment, through Cheesman Park onto 9th Avenue and take it until you reach York Street- you'll walk past a number of beautiful historic mansions on your way there. Otherwise its a very short drive. If you're lucky enough to be in town during one of the Summer concerts, pick up tickets on Craigslist if you can- well worth the experience!

Great short hike- lots of bang for the buck with an easy 30-45 min walk that ends at a gorgeous glacial lake. Amazing views. If you're going to do one day trip (or half day, in this case) into the foothills or mountains this is well worth your while. Trails are often snow-covered until late Spring, so be prepared.

Want to day trip to the mountains?

I haven't been to this one since it was renamed the "3 Kilts Tavern" - but I'm assuming it's the same dive bar look, feel, drinks, and pricing that it always was under it's old name. Literally a 3 minute walk around the corner- closest watering hole to the apartment!

One of the most iconic concert venues in the world, and for a very good reason. If you're able to catch a show when you're in town you won't be disappointed by this incredible place... and even if you don't have the opportunity to catch a show, there are some great hiking trails in and around the immediate vicinity of Red Rocks (just park in the lot at the top of the venue!), and really, walking through the venue and down onto the stage (open during the day time, at least when concerts are not scheduled) is worth the 20-minute drive alone!
