Denver

I'm headed to Denver for 8 days next week for lacrosse and we'll have a lot of down time between games. Any suggestions on things to do or see in the city? I'm thinking about going to a Rockies game on Monday night.

Sorry I never saw this, yeah Coors Field is sick. Pretty cool area around there too after the games

I lived in DEN for 2 years, in the mid-late 90's. Been back a bunch of times. Some suggestions...

 

--Best area of town to hang out is LoDo (Lower Downtown). Lots of great bars and microbrews (I recommend Rocky Mountain Tap and its 100+ beers on tap, and the Wynkoop micro-brewery), Coors Field is there, some good restaurants, art galleries, music venues, everything you'd want. Light rail gets you to and from.

 

--Denver area is incredibly sprawled, so careful where you plan to go, and leave time.

 

--A beer recommendation, one of my all time faves, brewed in CO and only available there and in nearby states: 90 Shilling by O'Dell's.

 

--Hidden gem restaurant: Parisi Italian Market and Deli, on the NW side. A real-ish Italian deli and cafe.

Also, where are you staying?
