Valentine’s Day Dining in Boulder and Denver

By Featured Business, Restaurant Review, ,

Valentine’s Day falls on a Saturday this year, so there’s really no excuse not to go out. If you’re not sure where to go, we at Local Table Tours compiled a list of some of our favorite date-night dining spots in Boulder and Denver.

These aren’t necessarily ranked in any order. Grab a reservation anywhere you can!

BOULDER

  • Frasca Food & Wine– Quite simply the most elegant dining experience you’ll find in Colorado.
  • Riffs– With a specials (Riffs) menu that’s always unique, this not-to-be-missed establishment is perfect for date night.
  • Black Cat Bistro– Fine farm-to-table dining and an excellent wine selection.
  • Bramble & Hare– Casual farm-to-table bistro adjacent to it’s sister restaurant, Black Cat, serving casual fare and strong cocktails.
  • PMG– Downtown Boulder’s newest wine bar serves some of the best food in town.
  • The Kitchen Upstairs– If you can find the doorway and make your way up the dark stairs, this swanky restaurant and bar will be a place to stay for hours.
  • Bru (for the beer lover’s lover)- Great beer, great food, and free parking are three great reasons to leave downtown for dinner.

DENVER

  • The Populist-This intimate eatery is one of the city’s not-to-be-missed dining destinations, and is absolutely perfect for date night.
  • Lower 48 Kitchen– Diners are consistently raving about this ballpark neighborhood eatery. One bite there is all it will take to make it one of your all time favorites.
  • Coohills– A restaurant that never disappoints, ask about dining at the Chef’s Counter.
  • Sushi Den– Denver, and quite possibly Colorado’s, premier sushi restaurant. Try the fresh tofu… seriously.
  • Stoic & Genuine– There’s a very good chance this James Beard award-winning chef owned establishment is already booked for Valentine’s Day. Contact them now!
  • The Squeaky Bean– There’s never a dull moment at The Bean. If you can’t get in for Valentine’s Day, consider Sunday brunch.

And no Valentine’s Day is complete without chocolate, so we suggest heading over to Colorado’s premier chocolate boutique, Piece Love & Chocolate, for a custom-made gift box. They’ll even ship it to you if you don’t feel like driving into Boulder.

Cheers!
