Corbin’s Denver Guidebook
DRINK & FOOD & SUMPIN' TO DO
Proximal, walkable, or talk-able. Out of the ordinary and possibly overlooked gems. Don't have to take my word for it, but if you know, you know.
Rarely fancy, but not antithesis of classy,
these places are all about the things being served. I am not sending you to fine dining or dives, but just plain good.
BEER—Walk 2 blocks from my place. Their beers are highly rated, including Beer Connoisseur's #3 best beer of 2018. It is delicious.

COFFEE—Walk 2 blocks from the place. Highly recommend their dirty turmeric latte. Not too sweet, healthy, and unique.

PARKS—Across the street from my place, it is a long and sweeping park with a fresh and clean, wooded marshland bikeway to Mile High Stadium and downtown.
Denver just built a huge new playground as part of an ongoing $9 mil improvement to this park.

BRUNCH—Sassafrass American Eatery-Highlands (not in Airbnb's guidebook listings). Southern/Creole brunch in a super cool old house+great patio. Best southern food in Denver, IMO, as well as my NoLa friends.

DINNER—Dining fare here is what you expect from 5-star restaurants, including presentation, but half the price and twice the portion size. Eat the Smoked Pork Chop: house-brined + smoked bone-in chop, roasted mushrooms, fingerling potatoes, pear, and brussel sprouts.

PIZZA—Yes, pizza is a category of it's own. Blue Pan is the most unique deep dish pizza you can ask for. Buttery, fluffy, crispy, and lighter than you might think, they call this "Detroit Sytle" and the corner pieces are the best. Fight over them.
Even if you think you need red sauce on your pizza (I usually do), order the 3-1-3.

PIZZA—Yes, pizza is a category of it's own. This is the furthest recommendation on my list, but worth going out for. Vetted by all my CHI-town friends, this is the best authentic Chicago-style 'za in the city. There are three locations, but don't even start thinking this is chain-quality.

MEXICAN—This is the best sitdown Mexican in downtown, hands down. The oxymoron of upscale+authentic Mexican food has no bearing on the quality of their food.

JAPANESE—Domo is not a typical Japanese restaurant for sushi + ramen. You'll find delicious, unique, and rare Japanese food. They also have the coolest patio ever. Don't let the weird location fool you into thinking it's not worth going in.
