Right up the street, they have some pretty good Italian food for a reasonable price. I like the gnocchi. It's tucked away in Park Hill, you wouldn't know it's here unless you lived near it.

Once a mortuary that held the remains of Buffalo Bill, this Denver hotspot is now a death-fixated restaurant. From historic mortuary to ultra-cool eatery, Denver’s Linger Eatuary has made quite the transition during its almost century in existence. Unique eats and fun drinks!

Great little cafe just a short walk from our house! Stop in for breakfast, brunch, or lunch. Good coffee, good food, and if it's nice out you can hang out on the huge patio.
If you have kids, it's also right next to a park that's full of kids toys and equipment.

Still temporarily closed-- It's a brewery and restaurant, and both the beer and food is good. Keep in mind - CASH/CHECK ONLY! They have an ATM on site though, so it's not that big of an issue. In this area there's a few bars too that are nice, like The Thin Man.

The RiNo (River North Art District) area is full of breweries! You could probably go to 6-7 in just this area, and they're all pretty good! There's even 2 that specialize in ciders, and a distillery that makes some great vodka nearby too. Great food places are here too, lots of art, entertainment, and other things to do. Highly recommend this area for an evening or two.

There's so much to do here, I can't break it all out or I'd have too many food and drink entries. There's breweries (my favorite being Denver Beer Co), restaurants (Linger is amazing), and it's not too far to walk from here to Coors Field, home of the Rockies.
