Family-Friendly Restaurants
Edelweiss Restaurant -- Kids will enjoy the strolling musicians who play German folk music on weekends, and they'll love the apple and cherry strudels.
Giuseppe's Old Depot Restaurant -- An original locomotive stands outside this old Denver & Rio Grande Railroad station. Most kids will adore the spaghetti and pizza.
Meadow Muffins -- The junk-store appearance and kid-friendly food (like a burger with peanut butter) make this place a hit with the younger set.
