Yeah, the coffee's not amazing, but it's just so warm and cozy inside. If you're not a single-origin snob, you'll be just fine.

A brewpub and Boulder institution: burgers, hand-cut fries, amazing beer selection, super-friendly waitstaff (like, Trader Joe's friendly), and great for families or groups. Cash only, but there's an ATM in back.

Best-kept sushi secret in Boulder. Modeled on Tokyo's subway sake bars. One table and a small bar. Intimate and delish.

Decadent desserts, pastries so beautiful you won't want to take the first bite, and hand-churned ice cream. Okay, that's probably a lie, but it's seriously f—ing good. Remember: there's no calories in looking. Not that you came here just to look.

Drinks & Nightlife
Food trucks, dozens of local beers on tap, indoor and outdoor seating (with fire pit!), lawn games, dogs, kombucha bar (seriously), and tons of seating. Plus, it's 150 yards from your door—go ahead, have another drink.

Parks & Nature
Think you're pretty fit, huh? Just wait till the locals go jogging by in their short shorts, barely breaking a sweat. Maps at the trailhead can show you the three different trails up Mt. Sanitas: steep, steeper, and steepest. It's only a couple miles to the summit, but good golly it feels like more than that. You'll suck wind, but the views from the top are worth it.

Hiking for days and days. The big kahuna is Mt. Green, which is about 3.5 miles and a couple thousand feet of climbing from the trailhead, but there are a million other shorter, mellower loops. Great for a morning jog or sunset stroll.

Whole Foods Market

Yeah, it's not Whole Foods, but it's walking distance from the condo. Plus, you don't really need to blow six dollars on organic kumquats, do you? You can't buy alcohol in Colorado grocery stores—don't be fooled by the cooler of 3.2% beer!—so you'll need to go next door to Boulder Wine and Spirits for your Bacardi 151, you party animal.

Beer, wine, liquor, and Jello shots. But do yourself a favor and, just, don't.

Getting Around
The downtown bus stop. Not to be confused in any way with The Bustop, the gentleman's club on North Broadway. No one will believe you that it was an honest mistake.
