The Cherry Cricket · Cherry Creek
The Cherry Creek mainstay where customizing your own build is the house tradition.
My Brother's Bar · Jefferson Park
Denver's oldest continuously operating tavern (the Kerouac-and-Cassady hangout) and still a classic griddled-burger destination.
Odie B's Sunnyside
The Sunnyside counter was called Bodega until 2024, when a trademark dispute with a Kansas City lounge brought the Odie B's name. Cara Blauvelt and her husband Cliff, a cook of more than two decades, run the same kitchen at the same 2651 W 38th Ave address. Order the burger.
Snarfburger
The griddled, crispy-edged smash offshoot of Snarf's that's built out across the metro.
