Local stores and gyms meet everyday needs
Closer to Security-Widefield, head down the road to the Pueblo-style architecture of MoGlo Espresso, a family-owned and operated coffee shop, or select a midday or evening meal at Ruffrano’s Hell’s Kitchen Pizza. Nearby restaurants include Jack Quinn’s Irish Pub & Restaurant, featuring an authentic Irish atmosphere, and Garden of the Gods Market & Café, which offers a grab-‘n-go breakfast and lunch. The latter takes its name from a public park less than half an hour from Clearview Estates, where you can find a nature center and a maze of towering red rocks millions of years old. “It’s a real tourist attraction,” says Garden of the Gods Market & Café general manager Chris Heinrich. “It’s scenic, it’s right at the base of the mountains. People go and take photos, go hiking, visit the shop and there’s a place to get food. It’s pretty cool.” The market itself also serves dinner as TILL Neighborhood Bistro & Bar. “Our business has picked up over the last year and a half, predominantly by word-of-mouth,” Heinrich says. “We do features all the time, but I think people come here because it’s a comfortable place.”
For general needs, Walmart and the Big R serve as catch-alls for shoppers, while Ross Dress for Less provides a clothing-focused consumer experience. The local Planet Fitness is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
