Really great and creative Asian. Pricier, but worth it in our opinion. Insider tip - you can order your bottle of wine in a Porron (if you haven't heard of this google it before you order it). A small place, opens at 5, better luck getting in if you arrive earlier.

Drinks & Nightlife
Brewers that were formerly at Great Divide started this spin off and they have some yummy beers. Our favorite is to order pick up from Welton St. Cafe (honey hot wings) and bring them over the Spangalang. They have live jazz some nights of the week too!

Red Rocks is iconic for its music, but if you aren't heading to a show (you probably should consider this if you can find tickets) you can visit during the day. You can go for a hike in the trails and go into the amphitheatre. Running the stairs is a popular workout. FREE

Is it a market? an alley? a bar? It is all of it! You can grab a drink and wander the shops and play lawn games in the alley! They have a bakery, ice cream, cute shops, several bars and more.
A note - There are two separate liquor licenses, so one drink is okay for wandering on one side of the main entrance and drink on the other side are good for wandering that side. Totally odd.

Getting Around
If you are looking to get to the airport, the A line to DIA is a great option. We take an uber/Lyft to the 38th and Blake stop, then you get off at the last stop at the airport. Insider tip - if you have checked bags you can check them on the same level as the train stop, when you are looking at the escalator it is just to the right and FREE.
