Where does this tour meet?

This tour meets inside Union Station at 1701 Wynkoop St., near the Crawford Hotel check-in desk. You’ll find it toward the back of the Great Hall.

Your guide will be waiting there, wearing an orange “Delicious Denver Food Tours” button — easy to spot and even easier to talk to!

Running late or unsure if you’re in the right place? Just call or text us — we’re happy to help.

Where should I park?

Since this tour includes multiple alcoholic drinks, we recommend taking a Lyft or Uber so you can sip and stroll safely.

If you do plan to drive, here are two solid options near Union Station:

  • Metered street parking (check the app for time limits)

  • The Music Garage at 1615 18th St. — just a short walk away

Can I choose the cocktails served on the tour?

Not at this time — and that’s actually part of the fun.

Each stop on the Cocktail Tour features pre-selected drinks that are carefully curated to showcase what that bar does best. Many are paired with small bites, and the selections highlight the creativity and craft of our local partners.

By keeping the menu set, we ensure every guest gets a well-balanced, thoughtful experience — one that tells a story through flavor. If you have a dietary restriction or don’t drink alcohol, let us know in advance and we’ll do our best to accommodate with a mocktail option.

Is food served on the tour?

Yes — while the focus is on craft cocktails, you’ll also enjoy small plates at the first stop.

Think of it as a light, delicious start to the evening — perfect for happy hour. Most guests head to dinner afterward, but you’ll get enough bites to keep your palate entertained (and your stomach from sipping on an empty base).

If you’re celebrating or want to make a night of it, we’re happy to recommend nearby restaurants to continue the evening.

Can my friend who does not drink attend?

Absolutely! We offer a mocktail ticket at a discounted rate, which you can select during checkout.

Your friend will still enjoy beautifully crafted non-alcoholic drinks, great food, and the full experience — just without the booze. It’s a fun evening whether you’re sipping cocktails or skipping them.

Where does this tour end?

The tour ends just one block away on the Dairy Block – 1850 Wazee St.

What areas of town will I visit on this tour?

You’ll walk through some of Denver’s most iconic and historic neighborhoods — each with its own flavor and story.

  • Lower Downtown (LoDo): Denver’s oldest neighborhood, where cobblestone streets and old brick buildings meet trendy restaurants and cocktail bars.

  • Union Station: The beautifully restored 1914 train station that now anchors downtown.

  • The Dairy Block: A lively micro-district filled with street art, boutiques, and one of Denver’s coolest hidden alleys.

You’ll also visit Denver’s oldest hotel (built in 1898) and a few local gems along the way — all while sipping your way through the city’s vibrant cocktail scene.

How much walking is there on this tour?

Not much at all — this tour covers just under half a mile of light, leisurely walking, spread out over 2 hours.

All tastings are seated indoors, so you’ll be comfortable between strolls. The pace is easy, the distances are short, and there’s plenty of time to relax, sip, and enjoy the atmosphere at each stop.

Can I bring kids on this tour?

We love kiddos — but because this experience includes multiple cocktail tastings, it’s reserved for guests 21 and over only. If you’re looking for a fun family-friendly option, check out our daytime food tours, which are open to all ages!

What dietary restrictions are accommodated on this tour?

We do our best — and many common dietary needs can be accommodated on this tour, as long as we know in advance.

We can accommodate:

  • Vegetarian

  • Pescatarian

  • No beef / pork / poultry / seafood

  • Nut-free

We cannot fully accommodate gluten-free or dairy-free diets on this tour— some stops may offer substitutions, but not all. However, we can customize more fully on private tours, so reach out if that’s a better fit for your needs.

📝 Important: Please include all allergies and restrictions when booking. Our tastings are pre-ordered with restaurant partners, so we’re unable to make last-minute substitutions on the day of the tour.

Downtown Denver Food Tour was an amazing experience! Forrest was a great guide. His knowledge of Denver and its fine eating establishments were superb. The food was amazing as well (my favorite was the empanadas from Lazo Empanadas on 22nd Street)! I really appreciated Forrest’s personal recommendations at the end of the tour for other eating places based on your preferences that were stated at the beginning of the tour.

We did a food tour with Dlina and it was great! We really liked the variety of delicious foods and the small group setting. She was so friendly and was able to facilitate breaking the ice with the group so well. We’re from Denver and we loved hearing new fun facts/history and also trying new places we hadn’t been. Thank you!
