Tickle the triangle y’all, it’s mealtime.
According to the Colorado Restaurant Association, Colorado is home to over 12,000 restaurants, 69% of which are independently owned and operated. These eateries provide Colorado’s economy with $14+ billion in revenue, employ nearly a quarter of a million people and generates $323 million in sales tax.
Lunch and dinner service accounts for the vast majority of meals when dining out and with only three cents left on every dollar spent in restaurants, these eateries require consistent patronage to continue to serve us our midday sandwiches and evening entrees. RMFR breaks down the best places to grab a bite during your lunch hour or the perfect spots for suppertime and community with family and friends.

Eyes Bigger than stomachs welcome
Every good story begins around the table.
Here at Rocky Mountain Food Report, we are committed to discovering and sharing information about the growing food culture here in Colorado, and beyond. We are eager to learn about the people, pastimes and processes that make the plates we can’t put down such an integral part of our daily lives. Food is the universal language of love and we live, breath, work and play for the passion that is the hospitality industry. We strive to parlay pertinent knowledge about brilliant brands, progressive restaurants and interesting events forward to you, our intentional readership taking it all the way back to the heart of food to discuss the agricultural and animal beginnings all the way forward to the professionals who prepare, brew, build and distill these delicious creations. We value the individuals who are creating worthy livelihoods from their passion projects and showcase the hard working chefs, bartenders, farmers, ranchers, brewers, distillers, restaurateurs and sommeliers who make the arrival of these ingredients and life’s simple pleasures all possible.
Food is art. Food is nourishment. Food is fun. Beyond our artistic appreciation for the beautiful presentations that have crossed our tablescapes and an unwavering admiration for the strenuous, challenging work of the entirety of the food & beverage community, we share the thread that we like to eat. No matter your age, sex, political affiliations, religion or socioeconomic status, every single one of us gets hungry. We come together to talk about cravings, the desire for a thoughtful craft community and what we should all eat next and that’s the joy of writing about gastronomic culture. At heart, this is a news forum that celebrates our hierarchy of needs where eating lives at the tippy top. Let’s learn together, taste all the things and enjoy every single bite.
