College Climbing

Of course, Boulder is all about the outdoors and offers amazing venues for climbing, skiing and more. But the city also has quite a cultural vibrancy.

Drinking Out Of Mason Jars

Restaurants in Boulder are expectedly diverse as well. There are plenty of chain style places but also plenty of locally owned, very good establishments. Until you're settled and get to know your neighborhood, try out places like Il Pastaio, where everything is homemade, Brasserie Ten Ten, and Efrain's for a different style of Mexican food and margaritas in mason jars. Q's is a great place for breakfast as is either of the Dot's Diners in town. Go upscale at either Flagstaff House or Boulder Cork as both have fine steaks. The ratio of person to restaurants is very good in this likable city!
