Things To Do
Golden City Brewery
One of our favorite local brewery's is the second largest brewery in Golden. It is within walking distance of the Colorado School of Mines and has become a staple in our lives. Would highly recommend asking for glitter in your beer.
Olive Garden
If you are interested in seeing the exact location where we had our first date, visit this Olive Garden!
Garden of the Gods Visitor and Nature Center
Outside of breathtaking views and amazing hikes, the Garden of the Gods also offers various tours and a visitor center that features a Geo-Trekker theater. We would recommend at least making time to drive through the area to get a small glimpse of all the beauty Colorado has to offer.
Snooze, an A.M. Eatery
Snooze is known for its creativity with a menu of inventive pancakes, bold twists on benedicts, lighter breakfast options and more. It is a vibrant, retro chain, and by far one of our favorite places for brunch.
