Work where you eat news

Graze & Gather, a new restaurant and co-working space in one opens Thursday, February 14 in Westminster’s Westmoor Technology Park. The hip-sounding space seems to fill a niche in that area; the closest ampersand restaurant, Hickory & Ash, is 2.5 miles away, located at the Arista development. The “graze” component of this new spot (slogan: “work deliciously”) is a 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. food menu consisting of build-your-own breakfast burritos, salads, sandwiches, personal pizzas, and more. The “gather” part includes free WiFi, electrical outlets, and a 46-seat workspace. The space is owned by Eurest, a $1.6 billion food service and vending business.

More than two decades ago, the seasoned chef operated a small local restaurant group; now he’s down to one Denver location. Since opening in 2017, L’Atelier by Radex has received positive reviews.
