The Boulder Dushanbe Teahouse was given as a gift to the City of Boulder from its sister-city, Dushanbe, Tajikistan. The Teahouse now stands for global friendship and cultural exchange. From 1987 -1990, more than 40 artisans in several cities of Tajikistan created the decorative elements of the Teahouse, including its hand-carved and hand-painted ceiling, tables, stools, columns, and exterior ceramic panels. The Teahouse is located along the Boulder Creek. If the weather is nice, you can sit right along the water and enjoy tea, chai, and food! In my opinion, its a must-visit location in Boulder, even just to take a look from outside.

Breweries/Beer

Avery brewing company is my favorite brewery in Boulder. The food is amazing and the beer selection is phenomenal. Avery has the first ever beer archaeologist - Professor Travis Rupp - as their resident, head brewer. The brewery conducts tours of the facility. There is outdoor as well as indoor seating. The outdoor area allows dogs. There is also Twin Lakes within walking distance where dogs can run off leash and swim.

Not actually a brewery, this is one of my favorite places to hang out in Boulder. This is a beer garden (tons of beer and kombucha and coffee options) combined with a food truck park! There is LOTs of outdoor seating and indoor seating. The backyard seating has fireplaces and corn hole. Sunday evenings feature local comedians (buy tickets in advance).
