Snooze, an A.M. Eatery will unveil its new Denver Union Station location on Wednesday, Oct. 2. Located in the space that formerly housed Next Door Eatery, the move expands Snooze Denver Union Station from its current capacity of 124 seats to 230, with an even larger patio space and its own dedicated restrooms for guests. The design aimed to preserve the history of Denver Union Station, adding original apres-ski-themed artworks commissioned from Winter Park-based artist Shannon Foley Henn, highlighting the Winter Park ski train and Colorado’s adventurous culture. Underscoring Snooze’s commitment to giving back to the Denver community, it will partner with Denver Urban Gardens for a private pre-opening fundraiser breakfast. Between the recent remodel of Ballpark and the relocation of its historic Union Station location, Snooze has committed more than $3.5 million to downtown Denver in the last month, further deepening its commitment to the city.
