    Tavernetta was as advertised. We grabbed a bottle of wine and an appetizer at Sunday Vinyl before dinner, and it was also excellent. The Frasca Group is spectacular. Both restaurants were so obviously well run. I have not had that level of service in a really, really long time.

    My wedding weekend, when my best man got in, we immediately went to a Rockies game and ate some edibles. Got fucked up and wandered over to Bar Bar and started drinking…problem was we were supposed to be picking up a table and heading home 2 hours prior for a family BBQ. :laugh: almost didn’t get married because of Bar Bar.

    Fyi for visitors. Dia security fucking sucks. The line for the South(I think, maybe north) checkpoint was the most rediculous line I have ever seen. Luckily I knew about the bridge checkpoint and got through quickly.

    I've never waited more than 30 minutes at security. Usually it's less than 15.

    Went to my first post pandemic show at Red Rocks tonight. It was a great show but I forgot how big of a bitch the hike is from the South Lot up the steps to the top of Red Rocks is. I need to get back in shape.

    Totally disagree on recommending voo doo to anyone.

    i don’t have a Rockies connection but do recommend sitting on the 1st base side for the sunset

    Yeah, fuck voodoo.

    unless the Rox are playing the cubs, tickets are super easy and probably <$50 a pop on club level.

    they’re playing the pirates so I was thinking club seats would be cheap but they’re still pretty pricey

    voodoo isn’t great but cool bars would be appreciated

    Had an absolute blast at the Rox game when I was in town.

    I don't think Euclid Hall is open anymore but if any of the sister restaurants serve the poutine fucking do it.

    Little too hip for its own good. Nice little novelty for the aesthetic, but service is always rough too. Much prefer Occidental in that neighborhood. I’ll throw you out a bar list later.

    Good place to get drugs, though.

    not a bad list. I will add:

    dive bars:

    Colfax Adjacent - Thin Man; PS Lounge; The Crypt; The Horseshoe Lounge

    South Broadway - Dive Inn; Skylark Lounge; Candlelight Tavern, Kentucky Inn (When Breakfast King was still open, I would hit this bar crawl and finish with a 3 AM meal at the King)

    Tennyson Adjacent - Local 46; Crow Bar

    For breweries, just choose a highly rated one with a good outdoor area, you can't go wrong

    Pon Pon is a good spot in RiNo. As is Embassy Tavern. Used to love Matchbox before it got ruined. Meadowlark is pretty good.


    Union Lodge 1 makes a great cocktail, but not in the best looking part of downtown

    Cruise Room is silly but fun.

    Jax has a great pre-Coors game happy hour with Oysters. So does Fish n Beer.

    I will never advise anyone to go to LoDo unless that is really their scene. If so, just choose the place that looks the best to you :idk:

    Post Oak is pretty good BBQ in Tennyson

    Kike's Red Tacos is a top tier taco spot

    Dimestore delibar roof may be a great spot if you can snag some shade
