Food scene

This list is mostly things that are close to us, but threw in a couple that are not walking distance. (And if you want more not walking distance stuff - just let us know. We have lots!!)
Just at the end of our street – on 4th. So all of .1 mile walk! Have great coffee, breakfast options, lunch options, ice cream and just general market stuff too. It’s such a great “resource” right in the neighborhood.
Baker Neighborhood Market
713 W 4th Ave

Just around the corner from us on Santa Fe - .2 mile walk. Everyone in the city knows and raves about their grab and go breakfast burritos. Regularly voted “Best of Denver”. Place is a bit of a “hole in the wall” but don’t be deterred – breakfast burritos are great! Order at the counter and then take it to go.

On Broadway (a bit of a walk – exactly 1 mile from us). Lots to see along the way on Broadway. The Portland famous joint known for extravagant donuts has branched out to a few other cities (Denver being one!) And honestly, this is probably sugar overload for breakfast, but can be a great sugary snack boost any time.

It’s a wine bar and restaurant. The great thing is they do $6 before 5 – all glasses of wine and pitchers of beer (and all beers - the good stuff!) are $6 up until 5pm. Also, they do great bruschetta boards- they're yummy! Broadway location is .5 miles from us.

Walking distance from us on Santa Fe. .3 miles. For the warmer months - the best patio on Santa Fe! And really good Mexican food! (Coming from a Texan, Carissa, that's a good review!)

Tony and I love Angelo's! One of our favorite restaurants in Denver. Mainly Italian food, pizza and calzones. And if you like oysters (raw and chargrilled), make sure to catch one of their happy hours (early one and late one), where they're part of awesome specials. There will be long waits on Friday and Saturday night for dinner service, so plan ahead.

Again - listing the things that are within walking distance from us - and then 1 additional spot! (But if you need more "not walkable" recommendations - just shout. We have lots!
The first (legal) whiskey to come out of Colorado, Stranahan's is one of the rarest and most sought after American spirits. And easy bike ride or nice walk (.8 miles) from Inca Retreat!

This is a super chill bar on Santa Fe - just .7 miles from us. It's based on "Japanese kissa" where listening to music is the core identity of the business. So they have really high end speakers and play only vinyl music. Craft cocktails, good wine, lite bites. Seating room only - not a bar you can stand and hang out in. And no real signage outside of it - it's one of those "if you know, you know" type of places. But it’s such a great spot!

New wine bar on Santa Fe that we both love!
Room for Friends ... a wine bar!

This place is one of Tony’s favs! It’s downtown, so not within walking distance. They only serve “pre-prohibition” era liquor and drinks (so no vodka or tequila– which annoys Carissa, but whatever), but they are very much about the craft cocktail experience.

Neighborhoods

Inca Retreat is right in the middle of two of Denver's best neighborhoods. No shortage of things to check out - and all within walking distance!
All up and down Broadway (from 6th Ave - I-25) – lots and lots of bar, food and shopping options. We don’t go through recommending any of them, because they all have perks and just depends on your personal preferences. But nothing bad. And .5 miles from us is Dae Gee – Korean BBQ joint featured on Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives.

Art studios, galleries, artist cooperatives, theaters, museums, murals (all representing hundreds of artists at any given time) and restaurants, shops, breweries and bars. Just 1/2 block from our house is Santa Fe - and blocks of adventure! Our favs: Santiago's El Noa Noa Room For Friends - wine bar Renegade Brewing - Tony's favorite Abstract Denver - art, clothing, gifts store - best place to go to get unique (not cheesy) Denver/Colorado souvenirs. Strawberry Mountain - resale clothing shop with awesome stuff! ESP Hifi - bar

Not walking distance - inside The Source Hotel - OK this whole hotel/development is cool. Boutiques and restaurants throughout. And on the top floor is The Woods – New Belgium Brewing’s Denver location and restaurant. And it has floor to celling windows with great views of Denver and the mountains. As well as good food and beer!

Not walking distance - but the Denver location of the Breceknridge institution. And Carissa's fav. Brewery tours, lots of beers to try out and a full restaurant. Lots of outdoor seating and activities (even in the winter - they build a sled slide!) Also- if up for a longer and scenic bike ride - this is an 11 miles ride from Inca Retreat - almost entirely along South Platte River Trail - so no cars - only bikes and runners/walkers.

Sightseeing

A 2.5 mile bike ride from us or under a 10 minute drive. Convergence Station isn’t just Meow Wolf’s third (and largest) permanent exhibition, it’s the first multiversal transit station serving Earth and home to one of Denver’s most unique art spaces. Surreal, walk-through art experience with many interactive rooms, bizarre sculptures & a story arc.
