Maybe it was simply a “bad day” for this place? Crowd was relatively small for a Saturday evening. The service was extremely slow and both the spicy and cheese brats were overcooked and dry. I will say the green chili fries were excellent. Overall opinion….disappointing.

We stopped by on our way to see the Rockies get slaughtered. I got the #1 which is an elk jalapeño cheddar sausage topped with grilled onions and cream cheese. It certainly was different but not extraordinary. At $12 it was over priced. The fries were good (do they have sugar on them?) and I’ve never seen Boylans sodas on fountain and that was amazing. It all was good but not great. At $18 for a “dog” and fries I’ll pass next time.

The girls over at Frank’s Gentlemen’s Salon recommended this Anthony Boudain (sp?) sterling oasis of Hot diggity doggery, wings and Nelson soda
( She also recommended The Minute Mart and a certain resplendent ice cream)

Biker Jim’s had astonishing food , service and hospitality

A Denver Food Tour group were my only dining mates this Wednesday before Thanksgiving!

The perfect storm of Food recommendations produced one of the finest dining experiences!!!

The food tour guide added as his group parted , “ the night before the place was to open, Biker Jim ( no relation) brought his motorcycle friends in and they laid tire on the newly polished floors .”

This and other lore awaits the unsuspecting sojourner !

Excellent food. Great portion sizes. Louisiana hot dog as advertised, very spicy! Jack-a-lope was very tasty yet sweet.

There is no doubt that when Jim "Biker Jim" Pittenger opened his Biker Jim's Gourmet Dogs at 2148 Larimer Street in Denver, Colorado, near Union Station and Coors Field, he was making a statement. Biker Jim is a one-of-a-kind dude and his hot dog business is just the same. Open from 11 to 10 daily, Biker Jim's produces distinctive hot dogs like rattlesnake, ostrich wild boar, reindeer, German veal, Louisiana red hot, rabbit, Elk jalapeno cheddar and jack-a-lope with an equally wild variety of toppings and microbrews. My wife and I wanted to sample the best hot dogs in Denver, to see if any of them compares to Chicago's celebrated Chicago-style hot dog, and friends recommended Biker Jim's. Well, nothing on Biker Jim's menu resembles a Chicago-style hot dog but two of his all-natural Angus beef hot dogs had us wishing that Biker Jim opens a location in Chicago. Love the Classic Dog with the Coney topping, rich and meaty New Jersey chili with diced onions and yellow mustard or Biker Jim's classic topping, cream cheese and caramelized onions. Sides? The house fries smothered with pork green chili and cheese and Biker's baked beans are unique and delicious creations.
