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.

This was a wonderful food tour. We not only ate some of the best food in Denver, but we learned a lot about the town’s history. The walking tour wasn’t that much and it rained a little… but it didn’t matter because there wasn’t that much walking. It was just the right amount of food and time. People on the tour are from all over and we had so much fun! The tour guide was awesome. Would highly recommend this tour to anyone!

The DT Denver Food Tour was awesome! Our guide Nate was friendly and super knowledgeable about the foods we were eating as well as history that came along with the type of food and restaurant that was serving. We went to a total of 5 restaurants which included tastings of pizza, empanadas, green chili, flatbread tacos (my favorite of the tour), and ended with ice cream. I would highly recommend this tour to foodies, Denver tourists (or natives), or those just looking for something to do in the DT Denver area.
