When it opened in June, Stone Cellar Bistro became the latest in a string of new restaurants livening up the heart of Olde Town Arvada. The new concept from local industry vets Jordan Alley and Brandon Kerr (who are also behind the popular G Wagon food truck) emphasizes elevated farm-to-table cuisine served in a stylish setting at 7605 Grandview Avenue.

For one weekend in September, Arvada CO becomes the center of the archtop guitar universe. This unique festival is the only one of its kind and features over 30 of the world’s premier guitar builders.

Over the past few years, many former Denver residents crossed city borders seeking suburban comforts such as spacious yards and lower housing costs. From 2020 to 2021, the population of Denver county alone declined by over 6,000 residents, while some of the fastest growing cities in the country in 2019 included Arvada!

The idea for Stone Cellar Bistro — Arvada’s newest fine dining experience, located in the heart of Olde Town — didn’t come from years of planning, but rather the coalescing of two decades-long culinary careers.

Arvada residents are one step closer to a Double-Double and some Animal Style fries.

The proposed In-N-Out Burger location is moving into the next stages of planning in July, and will be the seventh restaurant to open in Colorado.

The northwest suburb of Arvada is growing immensely as a plethora of diverse restaurants and bars enrich the food scene of this town. The people of Arvada are accustomed to driving either to Denver, Boulder or other more established cities to indulge in different foods.

The front range comes alive as restaurants and bars sweep off their patios, and set up their chairs, tables, corn hole, bocce ball, and stages. It’s the opening of patio season around Colorado’s front range; patios in Denver – here we come!

Downtown Arvada is about to get a dose of both local and non-local retailers.

Denver-based Snooze an A.M. Eatery and Smashburger have both committed to The Shops at Olde Town Station, in addition to Parry’s Pizzeria & Taphouse, which first opened a New York-style pizza restaurant in 2007 in Parker.
