What To Expect

Coors Field

Built in 1995 in the heart of downtown Denver, Coors Field is home to our beloved Rockies and a must-see stop when visiting the Mile High City.

Dairy Block

This historic block, located in downtown Denver’s LoDo neighborhood, was once home to Windsor Dairy and is now a vibrant micro-district that boasts 15 shops, 19 restaurants, seven bars, a luxury coworking space, and a 172-room boutique hotel.

Denver Union Station

Denver Union Station is the cultural hub and the “crown jewel” of the city. The addition of world-class dining, shopping, and the award-winning Crawford Hotel has revitalized and transformed Denver Union Station far beyond its humble beginnings.

Cherry Cricket

This award-winning local spot has been serving delicious burgers, Colorado green chili and local beers since 1945.

Mcgregor Square

In the heart of Lower Downtown Denver (LoDo), adjacent to Coors Field, McGregor Square spans an entire downtown block. This new development includes The Rally Hotel, residences, restaurants, retail outlets, and expansive food-hall, all circling a 17,000 square foot plaza complete with a stadium-sized LED screen.

El Chapultepec

Denver's oldest jazz club closed during the COVID-19 pandemic but still sits in a historic building near Coors Field.

LoDo

Short for Lower Downtown, LoDo is the heart and center of the Mile High City and contains some of Denver's best local restaurants and bars.

The Wynkoop

Wynkoop is Colorado’s First Brewpub. For almost three decades they have been brewing handcrafted beer in a modest basement brewery underneath Denver’s largest pool hall. Over the years the neighborhood has transformed, and Colorado’s craft beer industry has exploded.

Our food tour with Sarah was great. She was an excellent guide through the expanding Denver restaurant scene. Each stopped offered a unique taste, a bit of history or fun fact about the restaurant. Drinks were perfect too. You will not leave this tour hungry!

Our guides, Sarah and Austin were great. However a more specific starting location address should have been given.

My family took this tour on June 20th and we were lucky to have been guided through Delicious Denver by Chris! He was an amazing guide--super knowledgeable, friendly, funny, and you could tell he loved his job. Some of the members of our party are relatively picky eaters, and even they got in on the adventure and loved everything we tried. It was great to learn more about the history of Denver and its food culture in a very accessible way. I believe we walked around 1-1.15 miles during this trip, but surfaces were flat and everyone in our group was able to participate without issue. I am coming back to Denver again in October and cannot wait to visit many of the places again that we went to on this tour. Personally, I think this tour is geared mostly towards adults given many of the foods we tried, but if you have a child or teen who isn't picky, this could be a good tour for them, too!
