Drinks & Nightlife

They have a wide selection of craft beer and we've yet to have one that isn't delicious. Their kitchen is great as well; really good food. This place is a little pricey, but it's well worth it. Plus it's a three block walk from the apartment.

This is the most famous park in Colorado Springs. There are lots of trails to hike or mountain bike and you can rock climb there as well. We don't go too often because it's usually crowded and not very dog friendly, but it's hard to visit Colorado Springs and not visit this park.
