NEIGHBORHOOD AMENITIES

These are some of the diverse (and almost entirely indigenous to Colorado) shops & restaurants that are just 4-5 blocks to the west along Alpine Ave (my street!). West is toward the foothills (toward the right as you walk out of my place). For completeness, I've added two more that are slightly farther away (6-8 blocks) in the Historic Hotel Boulderado: The Corner Bar and Spruce Farm & Fish.

A bit farther away (6-8 blocks), but the absolute BEST for a late-night meal option (closes at 11pm or later). This is conjoined with the Historic Hotel Boulderado. Clam chowder is extraordinary!

A lovely dinner option right next to Ideal Market. More upscale Northern New Mexican cuisine - think Taos or Santa Fe, NOT Taco Bell. Exquisite Happy Hour menu includes artful food items and a delicious margarita made with real lime juice !

A bit farther away (6-8 blocks) in the Historic Hotel Boulderado. Higher end. Great for a flavorful, artfully presented meal of Colorado trout or Verlasso salmon. Many other options, but these are my favorites..

THE PEARL STREET MALL

The Pearl Street Walking Mall is among my TOP THREE THINGS to see and do during a brief visit to Boulder. It is is the social and cultural center of town. Ask your host Cherilynn to send you WALKING DIRECTIONS to the PEARL ST MALL from her home [Scenic! 0.9 miles, 15 min] Some of my favorite "Unique to Boulder" shops on Pearl Street are listed below.
