The 5 best bars/restaurants near Coors Field in Denver

The home of the Colorado Rockies, Coors Field, has long been a hangout for people in the Denver metro area on a warm, summer night to watch a baseball game and enjoy some time with friends and family, even if they aren’t from Colorado originally or even Rockies fans.

With that, fans who are visiting the LoDo part of Denver should know the bars and restaurants that locals recommend and like. Here are the best spots to head to before or after your day at Coors Field.

Biker Jim’s Gourmet Hot Dogs (Section 107, Section 331, and 2148 Larimer St.)

Biker Jim’s Gourmet Hot Dogs is a place that thousands of fans go to every night when they are visiting Coors Field. They have multiple food cart locations throughout the Denver Metro area and a location at Mile High Stadium as well but they have three locations right by or in Coors Field.

Their main location is at 2148 Larimer St., which is just one-third of a mile away from the stadium, or a six-minute walk from the entrance behind home plate.

They also have two locations inside of Coors Field (section 107, which is on the main concourse in right field, and section 331, which is in the upper deck directly behind home plate).

Biker Jim’s is known for their hot dogs with game meats, including elk, and spice, including their Jack-a-Lope Hot Dog, which is infused with cherry and habanero. Both are served at all three locations in and around Coors Field.

At the main location, they also have hot dogs with wild boar and ostrich for the adventurous eaters. They do have hot dogs for the less adventurous and even have a vegan-friendly hot dog at all three locations.

Additionally, they have been featured on Food Paradise on the Travel Channel, No Reservations with the late Anthony Bourdain, and The Best Thing I Ever Ate on the Food Network.

Wynkoop Brewing Company (1634 18th Street)

Speaking of ice-cold brews, in the other direction away from Coors Field, Wynkoop Brewing Company is another great place to grab a beer and some food.

Wynkoop is just one-third of a mile away from Coors Field to the southwest and just one block away from Union Station, which is where many fans come in from around the Denver metro area via Amtrak, Light Rail, or other public transportation.

They feature nearly two dozen beers on tap and some of them are brewed on site.

For food, they feature some bar food that includes some favorites such as green chili cheese fries, chicken green chili, ribs, burgers (including bison burgers) as well as soups (including gumbo) and a variety of salads.

They also have “Adult Mac and Cheese” (which you can add a variety of proteins, including salmon, shrimp, pork, chicken, and bacon), chicken and waffles, Nashville Hot chicken, and a highly recommended order of fish and chips.

Wynkoop is open for lunch and dinner every day but they have brunch on Saturdays and Sundays at 11 AM as well. They also have a large outdoor seating area if you want to enjoy the warm temperatures and sunshine throughout the summer.

McGregor Square (1901 Wazee Street)

On the third base side of Coors Field and directly on the other side of the street is McGregor Square. McGregor Square just opened in 2021 and was named after the late Rockies team President Keli McGregor.

McGregor Square has more than a dozen restaurants and bars, a hotel, retail stores, a salon, and even permanent residences.

For food, they have Italian (Carmine’s Italian Restaurant), The Original (inside of the Rally Hotel that specializes in brunch options and happy hour), and Milepost Zero Food Hall (which has a number of restaurants inside including pizza, pasta, Chicago-style beef, empanadas, sushi, ramen, a noodle house).

Milepost Zero Food Hall also has a 35-tap self-serve beer wall.

If you’re in town for a weekend or even a day, all of these places are some places that you have to visit
