Why Atomic Cowboy is the Go-To Place Before or After a Concert at Red Rocks

dining before or after red rocks concert

As Coloradans know, Red Rocks is the pinnacle of concert venues. An amphitheater nestled in the foothills and surrounded by majestic, rusty-colored rocks, it’s hard to find a more stunning location. Going there isn’t just an experience; it’s an adventure…one that calls for pre-concert or post-concert treats. 

Fortunately, Atomic Cowboy is the ideal partner for Red Rocks. Whether it’s an opening act or an encore, it provides several benefits, including the following:

Pre-Concert Fuel

From dancing to singing along, concerts demand a lot of energy. Red Rocks, with its steep ramp-and-stair system that seems to challenge Everest, requires even more fuel. Filling up on pizza and burgers ensures you have the calories to reach your seat and stay engaged, no matter how long the song (we see you, “November Rain”).  

A Laid-Back Atmosphere with Fast Service

Atomic Cowboy is known for its relaxed vibe and quick service, two qualities that can be especially helpful when heading to a concert. A laid-back venue gives you a chance to catch your breath before entering a busier setting, while quick service is essential when you have somewhere to go. 

Affordability and Variety

Whether stopping by Atomic Cowboy before or after a concert, affordability is on the menu. This is especially true when compared to concert venues, which are known for charging high prices to hungry attendees. Instead of spending $25 on a soft pretzel and a room-temperature Coors Light, visit our restaurant for a wide, budget-friendly selection of food and drinks.  

A Place to Meet Up or Wind Down

Meeting up with friends beforehand is a tradition before concerts. It gives you a chance to pre-party, letting you talk, laugh, and socialize, which can be tough in an amphitheater. Of course, Atomic Cowboy is also a great place to relax after the mosh pit, where you can fill your belly with something hearty and satisfying before heading home. 

Stop by before your concert, after it, or teleport in between—we’re ready to rock and roll either way. 

Atomic Cowboy is a lively blend of ideas and experiences, food and drinks, late nights and early mornings, north and south. We offer both dine-in and delivery options. Contact us today to learn more about our menu, events, and awards.
