About SAM'S NO. 3


If you've never heard of it before, then get used to hearing Kickin' Green Pork Chili when you walk through the doors. It's really a spectacular meal that you will be glad you ordered on your visit to Sam's No. 3. These folks serve up a full menu of juicy Burgers, not your traditional Hot Dogs, Fresh Cut Fries as well as their now world-famous, Kitchen Sink Burrito. If you're hungry for a handful of goodness, then the Burrito has your name written all over it. Check out Sam's No. 3 when you're in the Denver district, you'll regret it if you pass it by. Maybe we should also mention the obvious from the start, which is that this place has been in business for nearly a century. That's right folks, Sam's No. 3 has had their doors open to the public since 1927. Be aware that they've got three amazing locations with this spot featured along with one in Glendale and Aurora as well. With nearly a hundred years of service, their menu is enormous as they've added many items while staying true to the original comfort food philosophy. Food comes out fast, fresh and hot. From breakfast through dinner, you can show up early and stay super late here. And best of all, the breakfast is served all day which always makes us happy in addition to the bottomless coffee served. Some have described this spot as Denny's but 100x bigger and better, you'll have to see for yourselves. For a diner, you'll be blown away by the quality and flavors. Come check out Sam's No. 3 and leave thoroughly happy and satisfied.
