Pizza 3.14 fans in Boulder and Denver are feeling the loss as both locations shut their doors, highlighting just how tough it’s become for local spots to survive. Owners point to Denver’s long permitting delays and changing nightlife as major hurdles. But it’s not all bad news—fresh openings are spicing things up, like Phatt Matt’s with its wild South African Philly and Eloise’s creative sandwiches on Tennyson. Plus, Old 121 Brewing’s new Littleton flagship is throwing a party this weekend. Which new spot are you most excited to try, and what do you think is the biggest challenge for local restaurants right now? #Food #DenverEats #LocalRestaurants
