Do you long for a simpler time when restaurants were adorned in chrome, nightclubs blasted disco, and skating in short shorts was the norm? Long no more, as Denver is home to these 8 rad and retro places that are guaranteed to transport you back in time:
1.) Fifty-Two 80's (Denver Southwest)
Children of the 80's: This awesome shop is for you! Whether you're wanting trolls, Saved by the Bell action figures, or even A-Team comics, you will find it here at Fifty-Two 80's.
2.) The 1up (Denver LoDo)
Nightlife has never been quite as colorful as it is at 1up, which features old-school arcade games with a side of delicious libations.
3.) 88 Drive-In Theatre (Commerce City)
Opening this spring, the 88 Drive-In Theatre offers patrons with the opportunity to watch 3 new blockbusters from the comfort of their own car! (Bonus: The cost to watch all three movies is a cool $8.)
4.) Denver Diner
For generations, this 50's-style diner -- complete with bar stools, lunch bar, and lots of chrome -- has been the place to go for not just burgers and fries, but tasty breakfast options as well.
5.) Rocket Fizz (Denver LoDo)
Plop plop, fizz fizz, oh what a relief it is... to still be able to buy candy from a large specialty store like the sweet Rocket Fizz!
6.) ROLL (Denver Curtis Park)
Located inside the EXDO Event Center, ROLL is a monthly (adults only) skate party that comes complete with skate rentals, sippy-cup drinks, and old-school jams you won't hear anywhere else.
7.) Lyons Soda Fountain (Lyons)
Coca-Cola decor, hand-spun milkshakes, and flavorful cheeseburgers... the gang is all here at this nostalgic soda fountain!
8.) Lucky Strike Belmar (Lakewood)
Glow-in-the-dark bowling lanes with HD projection screens... enough said.
