The Governor has suspended all dine-in service for restaurants, but take-out is still OK. Most Golden restaurants stand ready and waiting to provide you with take-out food. Give them a call and place an order! Likewise, most of the breweries are all set to sell you cans, crowlers, or growlers of craft beer to go.
The Railroad Museum, Rocky Mountain Quilt Museum, Dinosaur Ridge, and Buffalo Bill Museum have all closed, so their associated lectures and children’s activities are off the schedule for now.
The City has closed its facilities to the public, so City Hall, the Police and Fire Departments, and Planning/Public Works buildings are now locked. The City is still functioning. The water treatment plant is staffed and the police and fire departments are ready to respond to your calls. See the City’s Coronavirus page for details on what numbers to call, etc.
As of last night, Jefferson County had reported four new people with Coronavirus, bringing the total to 16 in our County.

A Word About Our locally-owned stores
Business is always slower downtown on days when the Coors tours aren’t operating. Right now, the tours are closed until at least the end of March. Do you need some hardware? A new outfit? Some coffee? Do you need to buy a gift? Do you need to ship a gift? Buy it in Golden. Curbside pickup, phone order…they’ll work with you. You’ll find the address and phone number of every store in Golden our Shopping page.
The Coors Brewery store is closed, but
Avenue Gifts is well-stocked with Coors hats and shirts!
In case you’re feeling stir-crazy, remember that the City of Golden has 253 acres of parks, 24 miles of trails, 402 acres of open space. It’s easy to keep appropriate social distance in that much space!
