Breakfast
Rory's Diner
Address: 11020 S. Pikes Peak Dr.
[gallery type="rectangular" size="large" ids="30945,30946,30947"]
Rory's is bursting with unique and creative flavors and a true made-from-scratch taste. They have plenty of sweet options like Lemon Blueberry French Toast and Vanilla Streusel Pancakes, as well as savory options like Corned Beef Hash or a BLT Omelette. They also have a great patio when the weather allows!
Three Little Griddles
Address: 6040 S. Gun Club Rd.
[gallery type="rectangular" size="large" ids="30948,30949,30950"]
Three Little Griddles has everything that can be made on a griddle, from good old traditional sweet griddle cakes to savory griddle cakes to biscuits in gravy and Eggs Benedict. The service is always excellent, and the food is fresh and flavorful. They're always really busy, so be sure you give yourself plenty of time to enjoy if you stop in!
Stonegate Cafe
Address: 16524 Keystone Blvd., Unit F
[gallery type="rectangular" size="large" ids="30951,30952,30953"]
Huge portions, delicious food, and (usually) no wait make this a great spot to stop for breakfast! Be sure to try their French toast, which is made with bread from a local bread company and rolled in cereal -- it's cere-iously to die for! The real star here, though, is the Cinnamonster. Be sure you grab one for the table!
Lunch
Indochine Cuisine
Address: 19751 E. Mainstreet
[gallery type="rectangular" size="large" ids="30954,30955,30956"]
Indochine provides great flavors and fresh ingredients in all their dishes. Their restaurant is comfortable and the staff is always pleasant! We highly recommend the Beef Cubes and Noodles, and the Pad Thai.
Opa Grill
Address: 18366 Lincoln Ave.
[gallery type="rectangular" size="large" ids="30957,30958,30959"]
Looking for somewhere with some Mediterranean flavor to eat in Parker? You can't miss out on Opa Grill! You definitely want to try the spanakopita -- it's a classic greek dish and theirs is up there with the best. Make sure you also get a fresh, hot pita!
Jozi's Kitchen and Shebeen
Address: 10971 S. Parker Rd.
[gallery type="rectangular" size="large" ids="30960,30961,30962"]
Traditional South African food is not easy to find in Colorado, so you'll definitely want to check this place out! The flavors are all full-bodied, the owner is a proper Afrikaaner who knows his way around a kitchen, and everyone on staff is friendly and helpful. I'll let you in on a secret, from a true South African; you
have to try the Boerewors (farmer's sausage). I recommend The Boerie Roll and the Malva Pudding for dessert!
Dinner
FuNuGyz
Address: 17904 Cottonwood Dr.
[gallery type="rectangular" size="large" ids="30963,30964,30965"]
FuNuGyz is easily the best sports bar around, and one of my favorite places to eat in Parker. No matter where you sit, you'll be able to see a TV and stay up-to-date on whatever game is on that night. They have great specials every day, along with trivia, pool, and other ways to stay entertained. We highly recommend the buffalo wings -- they're the best you'll find in Parker!
Portofino Pizza & Pasta
Address: 10920 S. Parker Rd.
[gallery type="rectangular" size="large" ids="30966,30967,30968"]
Portofino is small and, like all good local restaurants, it's
always busy. Their garlic knots are absolutely to die for, and their lasagna is delicious as well. This family-run establishment is always happy to serve and friendly, and they're very inexpensive.
Trattoria Dionisia
Address: 10403 S. Parker Rd.
[gallery type="rectangular" size="large" ids="30969,30970,30971"]
Reservations are definitely a must here! The full-service bar has limited space, but it's well worth the wait. You can feel when you walk through the door that this is a family-run establishment, and the atmosphere is fantastic. The food is tasty and filling, and the portions are generous. We recommend the mushroom ravioli and the chicken piccata!
Coffee
Fika Coffehouse
Address: 19559 E. Main St.
[gallery type="rectangular" size="large" ids="30972,30973,30974"]
This little coffeeshop is homey and welcoming, exactly the way a locally owned coffee house should be. The coffee is very high-quality and doesn't taste burnt like most chain shops. The baristas are always friendly, and they have a great selection.
Ju's Coffee
Address: 17908 Cottonwood Dr.
[gallery type="rectangular" size="large" ids="30975,30976,30977"]
Ju's has great atmosphere and great service; it's a fantastic place to eat in Parker! This isn't a 'grab and run' establishment -- you'll definitely want to sit down and enjoy the great coffee and setting. Bring a good book, curl up for a little while, and just chill!
Kunjani World Coffeehouse
Address: 10009 Jordan Rd.
[gallery type="rectangular" size="large" ids="30978,30979,30980"]
If selection is what you're looking for, Kunjani is the place for you. They have a ridiculous number of drink selections, along with some tasty food options. There's also lots of space to sit down with someone and have a long chat, and even a fireplace for those cold winter days. We can't recommend the Cinnamon Toast Chai enough!
English Tealeaves
Address: 18551 E. Main St.
[gallery type="rectangular" size="large" ids="30981,30982,30983"]
This tea house has a great selection of teas (around 130), many of which are very unique flavors. They've also get some delicious food options, like a salmon and cream cheese sandwich and bread and cheese platters. If you're looking for a proper English tea, this is definitely the shop for you!
