Kona Brewing Company

We love to go to breweries, and not going to lie, we kind of based our hotel location in Hawaii on the distance to Kona Brewing. We went a few times during our trip. The first time we got there, we were planning on eating. The wait was long to get a table so we…

Bricktown Brewery

First off, the portions are HUGE! Just had to say that first. While in Springfield, I wanted to check out the local brewery scene, so we started with Bricktown for dinner. We were seated in a booth by the windows and handed the menus and drink menu. After seeing a bunch of dishes come out…

Banger Brewing

I have been to Banger a few times and never disappointed. The staff is always super helpful and very knowledgeable about the beers. I went with the Sandia watermelon wheat. Great light watermelon flavor and would be great for patio drinking. When it isn’t 111 degrees outside that is. They also have a great food…

Beer Park at the Paris Hotel

I am going to start off by saying if you expect cheap beer at this place, you won’t find it. They offer many craft beers, a fantastic patio setting with games and super friendly staff. After looking over the beer menu, I couldn’t settle on just one. Then I found the deal worth getting there. They…

Applebee’s in Aurora

I feel like Applebee’s is the best place for a family that wants a variety of things for dinner.  They have everything from wings to salads and tacos to steak. Pretty much anything that your taste buds desire, they have it. I haven’t really had a bad meal at any Applebee’s I have been to.…

Dog Haus Biergarten Northfield Stapleton

Okay, first off you cannot argue with a free hot dog. Yesterday was the grand opening of the new Dog Haus location and all day they were giving away one free hot dog per person. We walked up and there was a line outside that wasn’t that bad and it moved pretty quickly. As we…

A Town Pizza

This has seriously become one of my by far favorite pizza places. I can’t speak enough about the amazing staff there.  They are funny, entertaining, great with suggestions, super fast and they handle pressure pretty well. I have been there when it is dead and I have been there on National Pizza Day. They get…

Blue Moon Brewery RiNo

We happened to be in the neighborhood of the new Blue Moon location in RiNo and figured we would stop in and check it out. OMG! I love it! Beautiful building. I even thought, maybe we should have our wedding reception there. If you are having a large wedding, Blue Moon is a great place…

JD’s Bait Shop

Okay, this place may not be near the water, but they know fried catfish! Actually, I would say fried everything. After going to this place for years I can still say that the service, food and drinks have all stayed consistently good. The atmosphere is a bit dark and for some reason usually pretty cold…

Stapleton Tap House

Do you love beer as much as I do? If so, then you should check out Stapleton Tap House. This place has become one of my favorite places to try different beers. They have a great selection and always rotating new handles. Every time I have gone, the staff have been on point with great…
