Things to do around town

We hope you'll come explore some of Boulder while you are in town. It's been a special place for both of us and has a lot to offer! See below for some of our favorite spots and activities:

Hikes:

  • Sanitas is a favorite, it's only ~4 miles but kicks your put with ~1,000ft+ of elevation gain
  • Flatirons + Royal Arch are accessible via Chautauqua park (also a good dining hall there) and are quintessential Boulder hikes

Activities around Boulder:

  • Walk pearl street mall on a weekend, great people watching + street performers
  • Drive up Baseline road to realization point or other turnoffs. Super cool to drive for 5-10 minutes and be so high up. On a clear day, you can see the Denver skyline
  • Celestial Seasoning Factory Tour - It's a 15 minute drive to the factory but well worth it for any Tea lovers. The mint room is intoxicating!
  • Check out Gold Hill Inn (~30 mins from Boulder) - family run restaurant (never been for dinner but heard it's great) that serves a 5 course dinner and you can stay up there in an oldstyle hotel

Food!

  • Kitchen Next Door + Kitchen Upstairs - Go-to for a good meal that doesn't break the bank. It's all farm to table and delicious. Kitchen Upstairs is a great place to go for a drink and meal, it's a cozy lounge environment with couches to sit on.
  • Pizza Caloré, Pizzeria locale (Gourmet Pizza), Audrey Janes Pizza Garage all on Pearl St.
  • ZoeMaMa - Nothing fancy Asian Street food, great Chicken Noodle Soup + and other authentic dishes, Aloy Thai and Tandori Grill (S. Boulder) are another good ones
  • Jill's Restaurant at the St. Julien is great for breakfast, lunch buffet or dinner (try the table ceasar, it's unbelievably good for just a ceasar salad)
  • T | aco is a favorite right next door to the rio for street tacos. The owner, Peter, is awesome
  • Wahoo's Fish Taco on 28th and Pearl St - Hannah's all time favorite.

Coffee shops:

  • Ozo on pearl is super popular
  • Trident is a hybrid coffee shop/bookstore right across from Ozo
  • Gather + Amante on Walnut street are the startup/tech places to hang, work, and stay caffeinated
  • Dushanbe tea house is an awesome place for coffee + a meal right on the boulder creek. The architecture there is amazing.

Beer!:

  • So many breweries, some of my favorite are:
  • Oscar Blues (Pearl st tap room)
  • Upslope
  • Avery (out in Gunbarrel near celestial seasoning but worth a drive on a nice day)
  • Finkel & Garfs (out in gunbarrel too, they do snack pairings with their beer selection)
  • Odd13 (out in Lafayette where I live)
  • Tons of others
