Rated one of the best beer gardens in Colorado, adult and family friendly 110 Reserve has the best cocktails in town. Our favorites are the strawberry margarita and the Old Fashioned. They nail a virgin marg too! Ps. A must order is their herb-roasted nuts! The recipe is so good they keep it a secret. With bonfire pits with fleece blankets, a view of pikes peak, and an enclosed patio for the winter - 110 is a must! Want to be even warmer? Choose their fully indoor intimate seating room. 110 Hosts live music on Friday nights and karaoke on Saturday nights. Call ahead to confirm !

The locals go to.! Our favorite place to eat breakfast and lunch in all of Woodland Park. Known to have the best breakfast, coffee, and lunch, Joanies is an absolute must. Go when you have some time to relax as there tends to be a wait that's worth it. Their portions are huge and there is not a single thing we haven't loved!

Sams is a family-owned Mediterranean and Middle Eastern restaurant! We have tried everything and it is delicious. Our favorites are the chicken plate, dolmas, all things hummus, and tzatziki. For the vegetarians - they have an off-the-menu "Veggie Sampler" if you ask for it! It comes with falafel, dolmas, hummus, tzatziki, pita and salad! We love it because you get to enjoy falafel and dolmas all in one dish!

Overlooking Manitou Springs, the Manitou Cliff Dwellings are architectural remains and preserved sandstone structures that were created by the ancient Puebloan people. "The Museum exhibits artifacts of the Ancient Puebloan Indians. Dioramas, pottery, tools, weapons, and videos offer a glimpse into the life of the mysterious Anasazi people who inhabited this land long before us. The gift shop has a nice selection of replica Anasazi artifacts, blankets, craft items, hand-made Indian jewelry, pottery, rugs, and more Southwestern gifts." -Uncover Colorado

A) because lines will form and B) weather usually rolls in during the afternoon on the peak!
