Leevers Locavore in Northside isn’t a grocery store. Or rather, it’s not just a grocery store, being that it’s also part food hall, complete with a coffee shop, sushi counter, sandwich maker, and pizza shop. There’s also every local food item you could ever want, so there’s something for all cravings.

1. Grab a Latte from Queen City Coffee

Any leaf-peeping weekend road trip should start with a cup of Denver-made joe. Buy a drink from Queen City Coffee at the café inside Leevers Locavore, plus a pastry to keep you alert on the drive up.

2. Snack on Locally Made Chips

If you’re like me (a chip girlie, through and through) know that Denver Chip Co. is a major partner of Leevers Locavore, meaning you can find big bags and multiple flavors here made by this seriously delicious Colorado company.

3. Score Some Scoops

The sun is still hot, which means it’s still ice cream season. Locavore is stocked with locally made flavors from shops like High Point Creamery and RoseBud Ice Cream — the perfect way to treat yourself when you get back to Denver after your leaf peeping adventure.
