Things To Do

Flagstaff House

Flagstaff House

1138 Flagstaff Road, Boulder, CO 80302

Flagstaff is our favorite restaurant and where we've celebrated all of our birthdays and anniversaries. At the top of Flagstaff Mountain with views of Boulder, it's newly remodeled with an incredible menu. Make a reservation in advance!

Rosetta Hall

Rosetta Hall

1109 Walnut Street, Boulder, CO 80302

Our favorite place to go for rooftop cocktails at sunset (they have plenty of heaters and gas fire pits), the rooftop with Flatiron views is gorgeous in October. Downstairs you'll find several international cuisines, desert bars, and American fusion stalls and a fun atmosphere with live music.

River and Woods

River and Woods

2328 Pearl Street, Boulder, CO 80302

Many of our out-of-town guests will be familiar with this cozy and charming restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating. With a local and changing farm to table menu, this cottage restaurant has been a staple for us over the years.

Brasserie Ten Ten

Brasserie Ten Ten

1011 Walnut Street, Boulder, CO 80302
, 303.998.1010

Another one of our favorites, we have spent many a cocktail and happy hour at their granite slab bar. We recommend for both dinner and happy hour, but make a reservation in advance if you have a larger group.

The Buff

The Buff

2600 Canyon Boulevard, Boulder, CO 80302
, 303.442.9150

An unfussy brunch spot with bottomless mimosas and incredible French toast.

Tangerine

Tangerine

2777 Iris Avenue, Boulder, CO 80304

We love brunch and this is a staple. Get the fresh orange juice.

License No. 1

License No. 1

2115 13th Street, Boulder, CO 80302

One of our favorite cocktail spots in the area, it's a speaky-easy style bar beneath the historic Boulderado Hotel. Good burgers and specialty drinks.

Flower Child

Flower Child

2580 Arapahoe Avenue, Boulder, CO 80302

Hike the Flatirons

Hike the Flatirons

316 Chautauqua Park, Boulder, CO

We highly recommend walking around Chautauqua park or hiking the first and second flatiron loop, a short but challenging hike. You'll be rewarded with incredible views of the Rockies on the backside and the Front Range on the other. We did our engagement pictures here! Stop by the historic Chautauqua Dining Hall afterwards for a beer and Colorado cuisine. https://www.alltrails.com/trail/us/colorado/first-and-second-flatiron-loop

Celestial Seasonings

Celestial Seasonings

4600 Sleepytime Drive, Boulder, CO 80301

If you're a fan of the Sleepytime Tea or any of the other iconic teas from this local company, we highly recommend taking a tour and sampling the goods of this awesome factory. They've been closed for the past few years and just recently reopened. $5/person and they don't take reservations. A highlight is the "mint tea room".

Avery Brewing Company

Avery Brewing Company

4910 Nautilus Court North, Boulder, CO 80301
, (303) 440-4324

10 minutes north, this brewery nails both food and award-winning beer. Go to Celestial Seasonings for a tour and then Avery for lunch!

Rocky Mountain National Park

Rocky Mountain National Park

Rocky Mountain National Park, and it's surrounding town, Estes Park, are a must-see if you haven't yet. Go check out the Stanley Hotel for a historical ghost tour (where Stephen King's The Shining took place) and one of the world's largest whiskey collections. It's about an hour away from Boulder. To keep the park from overcrowding, there is a timed entry reservation system. It's not too difficult to get in if you plan in advance! See the remaining fall foliage colors and then go to Bird & Jim for a bison burger and truffle fries.
