 › Udi's Bread Cafe (Downtown)

Fresh-baked breads made daily from Udi's Artisan Bakery are the highlight of this fast and casual café. For breakfast try the pulled pork sandwich on a pretzel bun with a fresh-brewed coffee. Enjoy a mango chicken salad or a French dip sandwich for lunch. 

 › Slice Works

Try a slice of the green chile pizza made with house-made green chile with cheddar and mozzarella. For an alternative to pizza, try the calamari or the chicken parmesan. 

 

 › Garden

Choose healthy and locally-sourced options from this largely plant-based menu. Take a seat in the 220-year-old Victorian era house near one of the floor-to-ceiling windows that overlook the Park Hill Golf Course. Try the green chile casserole or a cherry-orange smoothie made with cherries, oranges, apples, and spinach. 

 › Hawt Dog & Sausage Eatery

Feast on gourmet hot dogs and sausages sourced from Denver's Continental Sausage and Tonali's Meats, each one grilled and wrapped in three ounces of fresh-baked dough from City Bakery. 

 › My Other Bar

Try a cocktail made from house-infused alcohol such as cucumber gin, pickled vodka, citrus vodka, and jalapeño vodka. Food options include an Angus burger, chicken wings, fried pickles, and parmesan fries. Located inside Campagna Pizzeria. 

 › Pasquini's Pizza

Sit at a table made from bottlcaps and eat from contrasting plates. Unlike the other locations, this restaurant has a wood-fired oven to perfectly cook pizzas such as the margherita, which contains fresh buffalo mozzarella, San Marzano tomatoes, and basil.

 › Emily's Coffee

Try a creamy latte and a fresh pumpkin muffin for a good cause. This shop, a part of the Emily Griffth Technical College, employs refugees and immigrants who earn necessary employment experience. It contains a full espresso bar and pastries baked fresh by the college's baking program. Bonus: The fair trade espresso beans are roasted by Denver's Kalati Brothers Coffee. 

 › Wild Eggs

The Kalamity Katie's Border Benedict takes a twist on a customary eggs benedict meal with housemade green chile corncakes topped with poached eggs, queso fundido sauce, pico de gallo, sour cream, green onions, and avocados. 

 › Crave Dessert Bar & Lounge

Treat your sweet tooth at this collision of swanky lounge and morning coffee bar. Indulge your senses and try the 20-layer cake (alternating between flourless chocolate cake and peanut butter mousse) with coffee from locally-owned Novo. 

 › La Polleria

This fast, casual eatery whips up Peruvian style chicken in a brick-lined, charcoal-burning oven imported from Peru. If you want something traditional, try the Inca wrap with pulled chicken, lettuce, and cheese, the empanadas, or barbecue sandwiches.
