3400 Navajo St Denver CO

Ok, I know, if you are staying downtown, find a cab and come to one of the coolest neighborhood bars in town. Every day  they have different  drink specials, the food is good, the service outstanding, and the locals are friendly in this up and coming  Denver community, just don't tell anyone were you heard  of the  place.

Brewpub with a cool bar. Ice in the bar keeps your drink cold.

301 E 7th Ave Denver CO

Benny;s is not a chain Mexican joint. It has been in Capitol Hill for over 20 years serving authentic Mexican food and out of this world Margaritas all at a reasonable price. Benny's is a popular watering hole for many Colorado political types. I have had almost everything on the menu, and it is all good. The smothered burritos are a must try. Bring some friends, order a pitcher of margaritas, and have a fund dinner, or lunch.

In the basement of century-old Hotel Boulderado. Low ceilings and plenty of nooks and crannies to have a drink with friends, play pool or darts.

150 Kalamath St Denver CO

This is my favorite Mexican restaurant in all of Colorado. They have by far the best green chili in town, other than my fathers. The food is fantastic, but those who don't like really spicey food, make sure to order the chili mild. The hot will get you sweating, in a good way. Don't let the rough neighborhood scare you away, this place is a favorite of cops and locals alike.

534 E Colfax Ave Denver CO

This is a favorite of beer drinkers from all over town. They have great selections at reasonable prices. The food is ok, but the beer is fantastic.
