Lannie’s Clocktower Cabaret (fun late-night entertainment).Broken Shovels Farm (snuggle baby goats).
Rocky Mountain Arsenal (see bison and other wildlife).Union Station & Larimer Square (great food, bars, and stores).Our favorites were the flan and beignets. You may want to make a visit just for this. And they may even recommend trying something new, like a side of Rajas con Creme – a delicious mix of creamy peppers and onions that goes well with pretty much anything you order. If you are like us, there are a few words on the menu you won’t recognize, but have no fear – the servers are extremely knowledgeable. And they went great with a sampling of their salsas and guacs.
The Prickly Pixie Margarita and Boulder Falls Cocktail were a few faves. The drink menu at Kachina Southwestern Grill is just as creative as their meal options. (We aren’t the only ones who could live on tacos, right?!?) For something more filling, Buddy loved the Chicken Enchiladas and I was surprised by how yummy the vegetarian option, ‘Three Sisters’, was. Don’t miss out on the Navajo Tacos to taste this fluffy version of a favorite. We had never experienced fry bread before, and totally fell in love with it. Just be prepared for some slobbery kisses if you go!
And of course, we never turned down getting to meet some new furry friends while we were there. We’ve never had a dog of our own, but we would often stop by the park for a walk. However, Westminster Hills Dog Park is also a great place to just go for a late afternoon walk or watch the sunset over the front range. Just make sure he or she listens well to commands and plays well with other dogs. If you are traveling with your favorite pooch, this is a wonderful place for your pup to roam free. Just around the corner from Standley Lake is one of our favorite places to meet up with our dog-owner friends – Westminster Hills Off-Leash Dog Park. Plus, as we mentioned above, there is also lots of hiking and other activities at Standley Lake. It is much easier to pay the $7 per car fee to get down close to the lake edge – especially so if you are renting.

While you can park for free in a lot off 100th Street. And the U.S.-36 Bike Way is a great way to get in some good exercise on your way to Boulder or Denver. For example, Big Dry Creek Trail spans almost 12 miles from Standley Lake to I-25. With a trail system that goes through miles of open space, you can easily explore this area by walking, running or biking. We love getting out in the famed Colorado sun then ending the day with a beer or a date night. Plus, there are also some great restaurants, breweries, and other indoor entertainment options. I will probably return but will try to time my visits to the less busy times.Like many Colorado cities, Westminster has tons of options for outdoor lovers. In the end it's hard to justify the wait and other factors just to get at their food.
Service times can be slow too, from what we've experienced. Service tends to be not so good, maybe the servers are stressed due to the extreme amount of customers they receive. Even setting aside the lack of seating to meet the capacity of customers they have, the place feels a bit cold and uncomfortable. Whoever planned this place did a poor, poor job. We went across the lot to the Caribou coffee and waited there, so we wouldn't be in the cold or in the car. And because they have almost no waiting area you will probably do so outside. First, the popularity of this place coupled with the fact that they have little seating means you will probably wait, wait, and wait some more. On the other hand, I would rate the atmosphere and service as quite poor. My wife has been a few other times and tends to enjoy what she orders. I had the pineapple upside down pancakes, and they were wonderful. My first (and only so far) visit here left me with the impression that they have the food part down. Breakfast is pretty hard to screw up, but it's also hard to do anything outstanding and unique.
