Patricia’s Cap Hill/Denver Guidebook
Parks
Great park within biking or strolling distance. Great for frisbee, picnics, and biking. On a clear day, you can see the mountains in the distance and it's always super green.

Stadspark

Just a 2 block walk, this park hosts the capitol and other municipal buildings. The history museum is nearby and there is an Ai Wei Wei outdoor exhibit of the Chinese zodiacs.
I will also mention that there are a lot of homeless people here. If that makes you uncomfortable, I recommend you skip this park. That being said, I stroll there often (as a fan of Ai Wei Wei and local activist efforts) and I've never encountered an experience that felt unsafe or threatening.

I am a huge fan of this place because a) they deliver if you don't feel like walking b) they have THE BEST gluten free sub sandwich bread c) every time you order in house, you can choose a playing card that could earn you a free lunch.

This place is funny. It looks really divey, and it took me a while to trust it, but the food is actually delicious. And it's buy one get one free on many of their alcoholic choices all day.

Totally visit this place- even if it's just for a drink. The rooftop provides an awesome view of downtown Denver and they have about 10 different restaurant options + 2 bars within the same building. It's pop-up style.

This spot is very unassuming- it's in a mini-mall next to a Chinese restaurant and a dry cleaner. BUT, it's hands down my favorite brewery. The beers are consistently innovative, tasty, and of high quality. I also love all the board games. Easy bike ride or short Lyft.

This is Travis's favorite spot. The beer production is closer to wine than most, so the result is an incredible selection of naturally sour beers. They're made in a similar fashion to sourdough bread, taking on qualities of the air and water of Denver. Highly recommend!

Sightseeing
LOVE THIS PLACE. But I love contemporary art... They switch up their exhibitions often. If you visit, make sure to check the basement and the rooftop. The rooftop has a cafe and bar, so you can look at some art, then fill up as you gaze upon other rooftops. Also, this is a lovely bike ride from the condo. You simply hop on Cherry Creek Trail and you're on your way.
