Leven Deli Co.
Maybe you’re planning a picnic day for the fam and you want something other than a smooshed PB&J you shoved into a plastic baggie. Look to Leven Deli Co. to provide that perfect picnic meal, thanks to their towering sandwiches (be sure to try the house-made pastrami), fancy grab-and-go sides (we're talking French curry potato salad and fennel and mint coleslaw) and a sweet finish via chocolate tahini brownies and almost-as-big-as-your-head cookies.
Pairs with: Picnic-ready cans of C3(I)PA from Baere Brewing
Mercantile Dining and Provision
When it’s time to treat yourself or surprise your loved ones at home with something down-to-earth but straight-up delicious, opt for the chef-prepared fare at Mercantile Dining and Provision. Their fresh-made pasta dishes like bucatini carbonara and clam and artichoke fusilli are the way to go right now, and don’t forget a cheesecake or pastry for dessert.
Pairs with: Great Divide Brewing Co.’s Colette Farmhouse Ale
Little India
Little India’s had the to-go game down even before the pandemic, and now you can get it anytime you're craving bhindi masala. Literally; the 6th Avenue outpost is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. They can also handle gluten-free requests with ease. You can’t go wrong with paneer butter masala or their chicken saag, but really, everything’s excellent.
Pairs with: Banded Oak Brewing Company's Falling Leaves Pale Ale
Menya Ramen Noodle Bar
There’s nothing like curling up on the couch with a steaming bowl of ramen, flicking on a good movie and settling in for the night. Menya Ramen Noodle Bar’s saucy, flavorful ramens are just right for such an occasion, including their signature Menya Ramen bowl, which has a pork broth and to-die-for noodles. Or build your own ramen bowl to your liking.
Pairs with: Denver Beer Co.’s Love This City Pilsner
Wynkoop Brewing Company
For great food and great beer in one spot, it doesn't get much more classic than Wynkoop Brewing Company. Denverites have been filling up on their green chile mac and cheese (truly a combo for the ages) and burgers for more than 30 years, and everything is available to-go.
Pairs with: Wynkoop’s own Rocky Mountain Oyster Stout
Rio Grande Mexican Restaurant
While the Rio’s patio—and potent margaritas—are pretty legendary, you can recreate that same out-of-office vibe at home with their takeout options. From build-your-own taco packs and giant enchilada trays to individual entrees, you can feed yourself or an entire party. And yes, the iconic Rio margs are available to-go as well, either as ready-to-drink or in kits to make at home.
Pairs with: Westbound & Down's The Coloradan Mexican Lager
