Vegan Options Near Empower Field
Finally, we took a look around Empower Field to find a couple of options where you can grab a bite to eat before or after the game. This is by no means a complete list, just a few locations that caught our attention.
City O’ City
206 E 13th Ave, Denver, CO 80203
It’s not often that you find a local vegan-friendly restaurant with over 4,000 Google reviews (and a 4.5 rating!), but that’s exactly what we found with City O’ City.
Located just a couple miles east of the stadium, this is a vegetarian restaurant with plenty of (clearly marked) vegan options on the menu.
The Chicken and Waffles is a bourbon-brined chicken-fried cauliflower and it is one of the stars of the show at City O’ City. Definitely worth checking out!
Superfood Bar
1541 Platte St, Denver, CO 80202
For something a little closer to the stadium, consider the Superfood Bar. It’s only a little over a mile northeast of the stadium. Superfood Bar is a raw food spots serving salads, juices and smoothies.
