Denver's best kept secret |
1446 South Broadway Denver, CO 80210 United States +1 303 282 1446 http://www.cafecero.net/ |
The usual reaction of anyone walking into this funky little cafe for the first time is "wow, I cannot believe I never heard about this place." Located in the unlikely area of Denver's Antique Row, Cafe Cero's interior of chandeliers, stained glass windows and adobe walls is unmatched. The Blue Room, in the balcony area, with sofas, antique end tables and muted candles is perfect for exchanging coy glances over wine and candlelight. The menu, which is small, features a variety of sandwiches. Facilities provided here include live entertainment, catering service, and banquet. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Daring, modern ballet |
9132 West Bowles Avenue Denver, CO 80123 United States +1 303 789 2030 http://www.dtdt.org/ |
One of Denver's best-known professional contemporary ballet companies, this 23 year old establishment performs in venues across the city and the Rocky Mountains. Artistic Director David Taylor describes his company's shows as "exploring metaphysical concepts [and] the ritualistic aspects of dance." Though the majority of the group's performances are modern, it also presents one of the city's most acclaimed yearly Nutcracker shows. The 12-member ensemble won the 1997 Colorado Governor's Award for Excellence in the Arts and offers dance classes for adults and children. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Where the local bands play |
1578 South Broadway Denver, CO 80210 United States +1 303 777 5840 http://www.hermanshideaway.com |
Herman's Hideaway is reputed to be one of the best places to see live music in Denver. The club could easily pass for a biker bar and takes pride in its scruffy look. The inside is dark and smoky and bars line both sides of the room. The hottest local bands rock the club during the week and occasionally you will see a national act take the stage. Among some of the accomplished artists who played here in the past are the Dave Matthews Band, and the homegrown jam group Big Head Todd and the Monsters. Cover charge starts from USD4.
