8 Denver Restaurant Week Picks + Things to Do
First, lets go over the essentials of the program.
When Does it Run? March 6-15, 2026
How Does it Work? There are dine-in and to-go options at four price points – $25, $35, $45 and $55, each for a multi-course meal. The restaurants participating in the program aren’t just in Denver so this is a chance to venture out.
Tips for Making the Most of Denver Restaurant Week:
- Decide on your budget ahead of time and then choose which restaurants you’d like to go to and which price point you want to pay. This may mean some mixing and matching of price points as opposed to only doing one. To help determine your plan, check out the
- Start on the website and click on Explore Menus. That gets you to the page where you can Explore Restaurants and filter your search by price point, type of cuisine, part of town and more.
- Reservations can go quickly so make them NOW.
- Practice mindful eating and drinking. In the mix of all the hubbub of participating in Denver Restaurant Week, and conversation with your dining partners, don’t forget to focus on the appearance, aroma and flavors of your meal. The chefs put a lot of thought into their Restaurant Week offerings so revel in them to really enjoy your experience.
- Don’t hesitate to dine alone. Don’t let uncooperative or unavailable dining companions keep you from trying the places you want. Plus, imagine the fabulous people-watching.
- Utilize the Diner Account Portal that lets you track the restaurants you’ve dined at, and mark which ones you want to try.
- If you’re going to dine-in, get $10 off your next two orders of $25+ using Uber Eats and code DRW2026. They are a sponsor of Denver Restaurant Week. The deal expires March 16. See the app for details.
