Your Downtown Guide to: Colorado Startup Week

If you're in town for Colorado Startup Week, consider this your cheat sheet. We pulled together a downtown guide to help you fuel up, work in between sessions, and unwind once the day wraps, all around where the action is happening.

Getting there & getting around (will add hyperlinks)

• Take the train in to Union Station and plan your route using the RTD Trip Planner

• Enjoy the 16th Street FreeRide

• Grab a Veo bike or scooter for getting around

• Take advantage of the Mayors Park $5 initiative using SpotHero and code PARKINGFOR5

Morning fuel-up: Coffee shops Before your first session, grab a coffee at one of these downtown favorites:

• Vibe Coffee and Wine, located in the Link

• Logan House Coffee

• Huckleberry Roasters at Larimer Square

• Little Finch 

• Kaffe Lanskap

Between sessions: Co-working spots Need a spot to take a call or knock out follow-ups between sessions? Settle at a cafe or:

• Capital One Café

• McGregor Square

• Denver Public Library: Central Library

• The Alliance Center

• Pro Tip: Need a brain break, check out Skynets over Downtown

Lunch break Refuel fast and get back to it, these spots are quick, close, and worth the walk.

• Mendocino Farms

• Le Do Thai

• Sam's No. 3

• Leven Deli 

• Casa Tequilas

• Olive and Finch at the Performing Arts Complex

And, if you need a brain break, take a stroll Downtown to see Denver Skynets.

Happy hour: Wrapping up the day Once the sessions wrap, keep the conversations going at:

• Skyline Beer Garden - daily happy hour starting at 5p.m., with live music and food!

• Roosevelt

• Two Lazy Dogs Bar & Grill

• Chez Maggy

• Oskar Blues Grill & Brew

• The Wild

• Terminal Bar

You've got a full week of sessions ahead, let downtown handle the rest.
