Denver, CO (USA)

I was grabbing a little taste of Minnesota (jucy Lucy burger at Lucy’s Burger Bar) and happened upon the new Berkeley Supply store. What a gorgeous store with a ton of great Iron Heart and other stock.
-
Figured you were a local there given queen city is right around the corner.
Visited both this summer on a trip back "home" and shocked I had never been to that part of town. Both great stores with great people! Ended up talking cameras at Berkeley Supply and picked up some IH shorts with how hot it was at the time.

I’m not sure when they moved to the larger location, but what was once an Allegro coffee shop (mids at best) is now a Huckleberry Roasters (one of the better local roasters) and it opens right into Berkeley. Pretty sweet!

Marked my calendar. Wife will be in Barcelona, but Hattie and I would come for sure!
-
There is talk of a little in store event at Berkeley Supply Co on 28th Jan which myself and Adam C will attend. More details to follow soon
Is this still potentially happening? I'll for sure be there if so.

Really wish we could make it. @Madame Buttonfly and I planned to be there, but then we had to book a sailing course and the only dates we can do the course clash with this. SHIT…...

Boooooo!

This will be a fun event, wish we could be there, Giles and I will follow the party on this thread - it will give us much-needed light relief as we finish our 6-day yachtmaster course on Saturday 28th and then have our 1-day diesel engine maintenance course on Sunday 29th.
Yep, living the dream

Some things nearby (all within feet and walkable):
Huckleberry Roasters adjoins the shop. One of the better local coffee chains.
Queen City Optical is right around the corner. Pretty large Jacques Marie Mage collection as well as other great brands. Great place.
Tatarian is a craft cocktail lounge. Not been yet
Vital Root is a great vegan restaurant
Juicy Lucy’s has good burgers including the namesake cheese stuffed burger
Post Oak is pretty good barbecue and a good bar
Denver Biscuit Company does breakfast and then turns into Fat Sullys a NYC style pizza place. Counter serves slices until late. If you don’t mind driving Redeemer is the best pizza in town imo and in another very cool neighborhood.
Ill Porcellino is a terrific little salumeria great provisions, sandwiches, salads.
American Elm is a fancier new American style restaurant.
Okinawa sushi supposedly has decent ramen. I think the sushi should be passable too. Had a great meal years ago at another location. If you want to drive my favorite place is Sushi Den and Izakaya Den down south a bit.
Mazevo is a Greek place on my list. Looks good. Owner is very greek (he will stroll around playing bouzouki) but puts a twist on things.
Hops and Pie is decent food but best feature is the beers on tap can include rare ones
Berkeley Empourium and Berkeley Untapped are tap houses I haven’t tried
Small batch liquors I think is co-owned by Berkeley’s owner (@alex can confirm or correct that). Not been but I expect a well curated selection.

That’s just this little strip @Matt
Great neighborhood and there’s plenty else in other pockets. Gonna be fun!
