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.

Great tour that provided a lot of information about local food and a little history too. They were very accommodating of vegans/vegetarians. Sarah was an awesome guide, I would definitely recommend this tour!

We took the afternoon food tour on a very cold spring day in May. The owner (Jessica) and the tour guide (Sarah) met us at the first stop and were friendly from the get go. Sarah was a funny tour guide and established some quick ground rules that made it easy to hit all of our stops on time. She knew a lot about Denver and was easy going in handling all of the fact checkers in our group. We laughed a lot along the way. Each stop was ready for us and gave us delicious food and more information on their restaurants. I would honestly go back and visit them. Some of the tastes were lighter than others and well curated so that I was very full at the end of the tour. I have lived in Denver for almost 8 years and this is the first time I really walked around exploring the city this way. We would have preferred a more typical Denver day (with any amount of sunshine), but the weather didn't take away from the experience. It was really fun to go to the newer places Denver has to offer and try them out. I've been to tours in other cities and this was my favorite because I live here and can actually come back to visit these establishments. We opted to not add the drink package on since I had to drive. It did look like the pours other got were reasonable and complimented the food well. Seems like an ok price for 3 drinks, too. I highly recommend this tour!
