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.

What a great food tour, we sampled some Italy certified pizza, pork cheek and reindeer hot dogs were some of the adventurous cuisine we tasted. Lisa was our guide and very friendly and knowledgeable about the Denver area and clearly loves the city. We learned some history of the city and also about the owners and chefs background of the restaurants we visited. Take this tour, you won't be disappointed!

My husband and I took the Downtown Food Tour with my aunt and uncles last week. All 5 of us loved the tour! Our guide Chris was very knowledgeable about the area and told us some great stories. The food on the tour was excellent - even my family members local to Denver got to try restaurants that they hadn't been to before. Also, If you are on the fence about whether or not to upgrade and get the cocktails, just do it!! All 3 of them were superb. All 6 restaurants were expecting us and had food hot and ready within minutes of us arriving. Very VIP! Lastly, I was very appreciative of Jessica making accommodations at all of the restaurants for food allergies. I was not expecting to be able to eat at every stop so that was a wonderful surprise! Definitely take this tour when you are in Denver!
