I'll have a night in Denver, so does anyone have a good recommendation on where to eat? Some place with a good beer selection and kid friendly.
Thanks.
Thanks.

You can never go wrong with a Sonics. Plus you can teach your kids how to check knuckles.
5 guys is way better… apologies to any west coast people who want to pretend in and out is better
After hearing about in and out for years. I pulled into the one in Ft. Worth. It’s a dump and the food was not good. Five guys is much better at 4x thr cost. In and out was about as good as the Burger Chef was back in the 70’s-80’s.
Last time I was there I ate at the Ruby Tuesday near the airport, and they had a great selection of whiskey, including Jim Beam and Jack Daniel’s. After I made friends with the bartender, he let me try some of their Maker’s Mark. I can give recs for Boulder if you wander there
Sorry, I just realized I only drank at the Ruby Tuesday. I walked through a tornado to eat at some Vietnamese place down the street that was alright
I see whataburger in the same light. It's overblown, and not worth the time or money. I get it though, if you grew up on it, its the best thing ever.
In-N-Out and Whataburger are both over hyped in ways. But it always slides off the rails when people start comparing it to 5 Guys and the like. In-N-Out and Whataburger should be compared to McDonald's and Wendy's and other drive thru joints, 5 Guys is nothing like those places.
A double double (2 beef patties w cheese) combo at In-N-Out $10.50
A patty melt (2 beef patties w cheese on Texas toast) combo at Whataburger $11.25
A Big Mac Combo at McDonald's $9.79
A cheeseburger, (2 beef patties w cheese) fries, and a drink at 5 Guys $19.67
Not really in the same category in any way. And for the record, the Patty melt from Whataburger is way better than any of the others above (though I did eat at a Whataburger in MS 4-5 years ago that was an absolute disgrace.... Whataburger is supposed to be staffed exclusively by 40+ year old Mexican women to get the full experience... I mean if I pull up to a Popeyes and see a bunch of still virgin teenage white kids, I ain't eating that shìt... Those are Chick-fil-A workers.)
