Great fried chicken, great beer. Most breweries in Denver don't have an attached kitchen, so if you're looking for all-in-one, this is a solid choice.

Often cited as the best ice cream in Colorado, this is where you go if you want to step outside standard sweet ice cream flavors. They have 4 core flavors that are all delicious, but the other 20+ options (including at least 2 sorbets and 2 vegan flavors) are constantly changing. They close for a month in the winter, but are open the rest of the year and are by far our favorite ice cream shop in Denver.

A brewery that brews corn-based beers in the tradition of the pre-Columbian Americas. The flavor profile is a bit warmer, with prominent cinnamon and clove. We like the standard chicha, but they offer 4 oz pours for $2-$3 for those who want to try a smaller pour before committing to a larger portion.
