Psst… The Market at Larimer Square

If your fall agenda includes strolling under the seasonable canopy of Larimer Square’s lights, then look out for the blue candy-stripe awnings of The Market for a quick bite to eat. However, don’t feel restricted to their delicious pastries at the front of this cozy cookery, they have meals and snacks galore. Whether you’re in the mood for a filled pastry, a refreshing smoothie, pasta salad, rich cake, a warm meal for the brisk fall days, or just craving a bag of potato chips, the Market has all you ever need.

The Market is located on Larimer Square, and is a hub for eccentrics, families, and those who seek a warm cup of coffee. Their menu ranges from Italian sodas to lattes, from deli to pasta salad, to chicken wings and cake. It’s suited for those with a wide palette of tastes, and also doubles as a general food store.

As you walk in, an area resembling a café greets you, which eventually opens up to the main eating space. Chalkboard panels hang from the ceiling, listing the multiple drinks available to order. Racks of meal bread and filled pastries compliment the café bar to contrast your drink. The barista creates a marble of steaming cream and coffee in an appetizing mug.

Once you head up the stairs, there’s an island bustling with cooks, preparing a melting pot of delicious foods for the costumers. The area is lit in a welcoming way, not dim but not blinding. Shelves of spices, jarred spreads, and liquids in bottles line the walls, available for purchase. The variety includes biscuits in wintery boxes, peach cider, and even tea bags! Everything you’d need to whisk up a pleasant, relaxing morning is available at the Market.

Not only is there wide variety of breakfast, lunch, and dinner meals there to fill your stomach, you can top it off with the scrumptious cakes that taunt you from beside the register. From coconut cake to pineapple-upside –down cake, the sight of the cakes atop platters is guaranteed to make your mouth water and your stuffed stomach to grow bigger. And once your eyes fall upon the crowning jewel of cakes, your wallet empties as you order their renowned cake, the Spring Fling. The President and First Lady themselves ordered a slice when they visited Colorado. Made with moist, delicious cake, and covered with fruits resting on top of rich cream cheese frosting, this is the showstopper and finale to your meal.

The Market is by far the coziest restaurant to visit during the fall days when all you want is comforting, welcoming food.
