Take to the greens at the Haystack Mountain Golf Course. Located in the shadow of its namesake mountain and nestled along Left Hand Creek, the surroundings are too great to care about how your game is. 5877 Niwot Rd., Niwot, golfhaystack.com
Like the southern gentleman it is, The West End Tavern aims to please by offering a choice of 75-plus fine Kentucky bourbons, four single barrels, and authentic chicken and biscuits. 926 Pearl St., Boulder, thewestendtavern.com
Guys about town:
While at the Dark Horse Bar and Grill, chow down on their signature Jiffy Burger (peanut butter, bacon and provolone), watch the game on a ten-foot HD screen, and play a few rounds of air hockey. 2922 Baseline Rd., Boulder, darkhorsebar.com
Zanzibar Billiards offers a sweet deal: they take care of the food—Middle Eastern fare like hummus and shish kebabs—while you take advantage of the free games of pool. 2046 Larimer St., Denver, denverbilliardsbar.com
