Best Restaurants in Englewood CO: South Broadway, CityCenter and Local Favorites

If you are looking for restaurants Englewood CO locals keep going back to, most of the answer sits on one street. Englewood is its own city just south of Denver, and its old downtown along South Broadway packs diners, a French bakery, a wine bar, a Vietnamese American kitchen, a vegan cocktail bar and a brewpub into a few walkable blocks. A few more good tables sit along East Hampden Avenue near the hospital district.

This guide covers 12 places we confirmed open in November 2026 using each restaurant’s own website, its online ordering or reservation page, or recent news coverage. They are grouped by occasion, with what to order, a price range and current hours. Hours change with the seasons, so tap the Call or Website button before you drive over. If you are still deciding where to live, our Englewood city guide covers the neighborhoods, homes and commute.

Where Can You Get a Good Breakfast in Englewood?

Englewood is a breakfast town. All four spots below sit on South Broadway between Yale and Hampden, and all of them open by 7 a.m. on most days.

Breakfast on Broadway Cafe

Breakfast on Broadway has been serving Englewood since 2007, according to its own website, which describes a chef with a fine dining background who grew up on a farm and decided to open a diner. The menu leans creative without getting fussy. Order the Garden State Benedict, built on Taylor ham with poached eggs and hollandaise, or the smothered breakfast burrito wrapped in a jalapeno cheddar tortilla and covered in green chili. Smoked gouda grits show up Friday through Sunday.

Price check: the Denver Gazette’s April 2025 review put most menu items between $8.50 and $18, and the cafe’s own site lists mimosas at $13.75. Weekend mornings fill up, so arrive early or expect a short wait.

The Breakfast Queen

The Breakfast Queen is the classic Englewood diner: big plates, fast coffee refills and a 6 a.m. start every day of the week. Westword names the owners as George and Kosta Vasilias and notes that the diner moved a couple of doors down South Broadway in 2015 while keeping the same menu. Westword calls out the chile rellenos and eggs smothered in green chile as the house specialty, and recent diners keep mentioning the corned beef hash and the Mountain Man Skillet.

Trompeau Bakery

Trompeau is a real French bakery on South Broadway. Its website says it opened in 2001 near the University of Denver on Evans Avenue and moved to this Englewood storefront in early 2011, with pastry chef Pascal Trompeau, a native of Limoges, France. Go for an almond or chocolate croissant, a ham and Swiss savory croissant, or a slice of quiche Lorraine. Opening times are steady, but listings disagree on the afternoon closing time, so call ahead if you plan to stop in after 2 p.m.

Mango Tree Coffee

Mango Tree is the coffee shop to know near the south end of downtown. BusinessDen reported its opening at 3498 S Broadway in June 2021, and the shop is a division of Manna Worldwide, a nonprofit; profits go to Manna’s work for children in need. Its own menu lists lattes from $4.50, a cortado for $4 and smoothies for $6, with pastries in the case. It is closed Sundays.

Where Should You Go for Date Night in Englewood?

For a dinner that feels like an occasion, Englewood has two strong choices: a wine focused bistro in the middle of downtown and a longtime Italian dining room on East Hampden.

One Barrel American Bistro and Wine Bar

One Barrel sits on the ground floor at Broadway and Girard. Westword reported that owners Jamie Elward and Jordan Blaydes opened it in late 2018 with more than 100 wine labels and about 25 by the glass. The dinner menu on its website runs from a $21 burger to a $50 petite filet. Good orders include the Maryland crab cakes for $20, the chicken schnitzel for $26 and the crab stuffed sole for $34.

Hours from its OpenTable listing: lunch Monday to Saturday noon to 3 p.m., happy hour 3 to 6 p.m., and dinner from 5 p.m. until 8:30 p.m. Monday to Thursday and 9 p.m. Friday and Saturday. OpenTable shows it closed Sunday. Reserve for Friday and Saturday.

Undici Ristorante

Undici is the dressier option, an Italian dining room on East Hampden Avenue with a strong following on OpenTable, where it holds a 4.8 rating from more than 1,600 reviews. OpenTable lists it at $31 to $50 per person and shows dinner Monday to Thursday 3 to 9 p.m., Friday 3 to 10 p.m., Saturday 4 to 10 p.m. and Sunday 4 to 9 p.m., with happy hour from 3 to 6 p.m. Diners regularly mention the veal piccata, chicken and veal marsala, shrimp scampi and the house rigatoni. Book ahead on weekends.

What Are the Best Casual Dinner Spots in Englewood?

These four are the places to go when you want a good meal without planning ahead. Three are on South Broadway, and Penn Street Kitchen is a short drive east on Hampden.

ZOMO Asian + American Eatery

ZOMO is a Vietnamese American kitchen owned by Alysia Davey and Ryan Anderson. Westword reported it opened in the old El Tepehuan space, and the owners say on their website that they spent about four years remodeling the building, which is close to 100 years old. Its online menu lists pho from $14 for one meat to $17 for three or more, banh mi bites at four for $13, Grandma Chi’s egg rolls at three for $13, and a $15 burger with banh mi toppings and taro fries. Note that ZOMO is closed Tuesdays.

Penn Street Kitchen

Penn Street Kitchen sits at Hampden and Pennsylvania, close to Swedish Medical Center, which makes it a handy stop for hospital staff and visiting families. The menu is American comfort food: short rib beef stroganoff, Florentine piccata pasta and chicken pot pie are the dishes diners recommend. OpenTable lists it at $30 and under per person, and weekend hours start at 9 a.m., so it doubles as a brunch option.

The Barn South Broadway

The Barn is the newest place on this list. Westword reported that co owners Matt Ciani and Chase Devitt opened it in spring 2026 in the former Whiskey Biscuit space, less than three months after construction began. Westword describes elevated American food in a family friendly room, with appetizers from $8 to $13, dinner mains up to $27 and cocktails from $11 to $15. Try the shrimp and grits or the ancho marinated flank steak. Its online ordering page currently shows daily hours from 10 a.m. to 8:45 p.m.

Moe’s Original Bar B Que

Moe’s serves Alabama style pit barbecue with Colorado craft beer, and this Englewood location is more than a restaurant: its website lists eight bowling lanes, billiards, an arcade and a live music stage. Its online menu shows a pulled pork sandwich for $15.99, a brisket sandwich for $18.99, a two meat platter for $19.99 and rib platters at $18.99 for four bones or $21.99 for six. It is the easiest pick on South Broadway for a birthday or a big group.

Which Englewood Bars Serve Good Food?

Plenty of South Broadway bars pour a good drink. These two also run real kitchens.

Brewability & Pizzability

Brewability has been on South Broadway since 2016 and calls itself an inclusive brewery and pizzeria, with the motto “A Place Where Dis Becomes Ability.” The menu on its website lists 16 inch pizzas from an $18 cheese to the $29 Colorado green chile and pork, plus pretzel bites with beer cheese for $14. It opens Thursday through Sunday only: noon to 9 p.m. Thursday, noon to 10 p.m. Friday, 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Saturday and 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. Sunday. The kitchen closes at 9 p.m., and at 7 p.m. on Sunday.

Fellow Traveler

Fellow Traveler is a full bar with an all vegan kitchen. Patch reported that owner Joe Phillips opened it on January 21, 2022 after COVID pushed back a planned 2020 opening, and Westword notes house made limoncello and a Monday Malört flight. You do not need to be vegan to enjoy it. Its online menu lists a double onion cheeseburger for $18, panang fried rice for $17, fried cornbread for $14 and the Deep South Broadway burrito for $17. Current hours on its ordering page: Monday to Thursday noon to 8:30 p.m., Friday noon to 9 p.m., Saturday 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. and Sunday 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.

How Do You Plan a Night Out on South Broadway in Englewood?

The easy plan is to park once and walk. One Barrel at 3401, Brewability at 3445, ZOMO at 3457, The Breakfast Queen at 3460, Fellow Traveler at 3487 and Mango Tree at 3498 all sit within roughly one block of South Broadway. Moe’s and The Barn sit side by side at 3295 and 3299, a short walk north.

A few tips that help:

• Check the day. ZOMO closes Tuesdays, Brewability closes Monday to Wednesday, One Barrel shows closed Sundays and Mango Tree closes Sundays.
• Go early for breakfast. Breakfast on Broadway and The Breakfast Queen both open by 6:30 a.m., and weekend crowds build by mid morning.
• Dinner ends early here. Most kitchens on this list close between 8:30 and 10 p.m., so plan dinner before 8.
• Pair dinner with the arts scene. Downtown Englewood mixes galleries and studios with its restaurants; our look at Englewood’s Arts District covers the area.
