We are suckers for the gyro! This is for those of you that have more international taste buds. We were lucky enough to be able to go to Israel a couple years back, and loved the shawarma while there. This isn't shawarma, but it helps us get close. :)

This BBQ is amazing!! Go early though, because they tend to run out of things as the day goes on. Our favorites: The pulled pork sandwhich "bama" style, the mac n cheese, and the banana puddin (We're telling you, we're not even big banana pudding fans, but this stuff is amazing!)
Their englewood location also has an 8 lane bowling alley, billiards tables, and an arcade, so you can make a night or afternoon out of it.

Sweet Treats
In our opinion, homemade ice cream is one of the best things on the planet! That's exactly what you will get at Magill's, with plenty of flavors to choose from!

The Bear Creek walking trail system is close by, and is great for walking, running, riding a bike, or just exploring in general. It's an enjoyable time in nature. You might even see some wildlife while you're there, like an owl, hawks, or a muskrat!

This little mountain town is a short drive away and is known for their pizza place, Beau Jo's Pizza. It is delicious! There is usually a wait during busy times, but we'll say it's definitely worth the wait! TommyKnockers is also nearby and they have some great sodas (try the Almond Cream!). There are a lot of small shops to browse through too, for that great Colorado souvenir or just for whatever strikes your fancy!
