As Alexander Graham Bell once said, “When one door closes, another opens.” Surely, we have adapted this quote to coincide with contemporary optimism. However, as the devasting reality of coronavirus spreads, bearing witness to the succession of restaurants which have closed their doors for in-house dining due to government-mandated safety measures may feel extremely disconcerting. Granted, the effect COVID-19 has had upon Denver’s restaurant realm appeared to occur in the blink of an eye. One moment, hand sanitizer became on par with liquid gold. Next, rolls of toilet paper sold out faster than Popeye’s chicken sandwiches – and currently appear to be another form of American currency. Patrons were encouraged to support local businesses then immediately pressured to stay within the confinement of their homes. “Social distancing” has become a social responsibility and the restaurant industry is severely suffering.
Nevertheless, people need to eat. Likewise, hospitality professionals need to survive. Our impressive, empowering and proactive restaurant community aspires to continue thriving. While the day-to-day delivery and pickup operations of various eateries are a bit of a doozy lately — certain restaurants, chefs and hospitality groups have taken appropriate measures to continue moving forward. Subsequently, social media movements such as #curbsidecolorado and #wegotthisdenver are raising awareness while restaurants are keeping diners up-to-date about their preventative measures in attempt to control the spread of COVID-19. With safety, sanitation, spirit and seasoning in mind — let us present you with a list of Denver restaurants to support by way of ordering delivery, takeout and curbside pickup during this truly bizarre time.

*Editor’s note: As things shift with the current situation, make sure to check each restaurant’s websites or social media channels for restaurant-specific updates.
