I had been here once and wanted to bring my daughter for lunch. We really liked it. There is a variety of restaurants to choose from with a centralized bar for beverages. There is plenty of seating and they have the big garage doors that open out to their patio area. Lots of light coming in all the windows. First we did a lap to see all the menus so we could decide where we wanted to eat. I went for Prosciutto Formaggio Piada from Paisan. It is a wrap with Prosciutto, pancetta, stracciatella cheese, tomato and arugula. Delicious and refreshing. My daughter had the Arkansas mac from Mac Nation. It had pulled pork, ham and bacon on a bed of macaroni and cheese. She is a mac & cheese fan and really enjoyed this dish. This food hall is located on the ground floor below Aurum apartments. I know the nearest grocery store is a ways, so it is nice that the food hall has some dry goods and fresh odds and ends that one might need in a pinch. There are also offices for rent on the same floor. Conference rooms and single offices that one could use. It has an overall homey feel to it and a place that works for modern lives.

I really love places like this. Plain and simple. It's not a new concept, but the Greater Denver Area is boasting some serious competition with their food halls. Morris & Mae Market in Golden (just off I-70) opened back in December and has hit the ground running. A nice selection of food stalls, a centralized bar, stadium seating, free wifi and market goods from local Colorado brands for sale. You can tell there's thought and intention here. Pretty much every time walks in, a staff member will welcome them and say hello. It's the little things, ya know? The current lineup of businesses is as follows: Paisan: Fresh Italian La Rosita: Street Tacos Mac Nation Cafe: Mac & Cheese Kiki's Fresh Bowls: Poke, Acai and Smoothies Alpine House: Breakfast and Elevated Bar Fare Goldmine Sweets & Espresso: Cupcakes, Gelato and Espresso All of these businesses are locally owned and operated, too. Mac Nation and Paisan are my two current faves. However I love that Goldmine is here slinging coffee, because it's the perfect place to cowork in the mornings and afternoons. Lots of open space, tables, and not super crowded (yet). The owner of the market, Jen Thoemke, is doing incredible things for the Golden community. She owns a few other businesses in the area (including the coworking space next door, as well as Goldmine in the food hall). And on International Women's Day, we should be celebrating all the awesome women making our communities brighter. Even Beki, the GM of Morris & Mae, is a powerhouse and industry pro! A lot of amazing things on the horizon for Morris & Mae. Once we get out of these cold winter months this place will be the talk of the town. Look out Red Rocks season, you'll be seeing a lot more of us!

Great food hall! It's well laid out, comfortable to move in and around and find just what you might be looking for. Doesn't hurt it's in a great location -- on the way in to, or from, the mountains. We attended an event that let us sample food & drinks from the restaurants and bar. It is a fun fun place. Lots of choices. We started with Mac Nation's macaroni and cheese offerings: Arkansas (bbq pork,etc) and I had the Castroville (tomatoes and artichoke hearts). Yum. We then sampled smoothies from Kiki's; some Blackened Shrimp and Chicken Tinga from La Rosita's; then on to a bit of Caprese Salad and a Pesto Genovese Bake from Paisan. Moved on to the Alpine House's Scree Chicken and Broiled Brussel Sprouts. We ended it all with a bit of Lemon Gelato and cookie from the Gold Mine. Wow. Every bite we sampled was terrific. I foresee many a "stop on the way into" or "stop on the way out of" Red Rocks, or many other destinations in our beloved Rocky Mountains. Can't wait to get back!

This market is super cute and ideal for when you can't decide on where you want to eat. The market has a bar in the middle and tons of eateries - you scan the QR on your table and get a text when your food is ready. I wish I had taken pictures of our drinks and ice cream, but my boyfriend and I ordered: - Strawberry Smash drink - Peach mocktail - Chopped Salad - Pretzel with cheese - S'mores + Vanilla peanut butter malt ice cream Everything was so flavorful. 100% I enjoyed every single thing I had here. The ice cream was one of my favorites I've ever had, especially the s'mores! I highly recommend checking this place out!

Disappointing all around and a distant third food hall choice behind Edgewater and Golden Mill. Poke bowl place was glacially slow despite it not being super busy. Took about 30 minutes. The bowl itself had strange flavors going on--was not a fan of the salty/spicy topping which overwhelmed everything else. My kids love Mac n cheese but would not eat the stuff from Mac Nation (we got two kids' orders). This was not a kid friendly dish--spirals with a pasty cheese sauce. I brought it home and fed both orders to the dog. Normally we like gold mine cupcakes but they didn't have any dairy free options for my wife so just got them for the kids. Again a distant third behind the other two food halls I've been to in metro Denver.

It looks like this has been the trend these days? A food court with various different vendors all put and mashed together has been popping up all over in the Denver Metro area lately. And today, I had the pleasure of visiting Morris & Mae Market during the off peak lunch hour. It's a bit way out in Golden from my DTC neighborhood but this food court was a much needed one in this foothill city (Aurora has two, Denver has at least two.) Oh way, there is a small food court in downtown Golden which I completely forgot about until now! I wanted to get something from a few different restaurants but I couldn't (I simply wasn't that hungry at the time of the visit.) After having a hard time which vendor to get food from, I chose Paisan, an Italian cuisine. What I got was a pesto pasta bake as a to-go (by the way, I ate it as soon as I got home and this was a really good dish. It tasted a bit smoky although there was no meat in it. And the pine nuts on top was the magic ingredient.) You'll definitely find something that appeals to your palate as there is a taco place, coffee and muffin place, poke place and mac 'n cheese place to name several. The centralized bar is a good size and looked so welcoming/inviting. There is also a mini market right by the bar where you can grab some basic groceries. The design and layout of the entire food court is pretty intriguing (there is a staircase to the right where there are pillows. You can sit there and eat your food casually. Reminded me of the Piazza di Spagna (Spanish Steps) in Rome; so cute!!)

Came here for a Yelp elite event to try out the vendors in this food hall before they originally open in Spring/Sunmer 2023. The food, drinks, and service were all amazing. I am excited to return here when they have their real opening to try the full menus. The samplers we received were great, and I believe it'll be a good indication of the quality of the vendors when this place fully opens.

Love the food hall concept with the bar in the middle. You can order at whichever counter or scan the bar code from where you're seating. With so many choices there's something for everything here! My boyfriend had Buffalo mac and cheese from Mac nation. It was rich and flavorful. He enjoyed it. I decided on a poke bowl from Kikis. It tasted very fresh and was a good portion. I will say it was a bit pricey in my opinion. With a tip it was $19 and some change for the 1 bowl. We sat at the bar and there's a great beer selection. Bartenders are friendly. They let you have 2 free beer samples and after that you can opt for a flight. If you're in the area it's a cool spot!

Gary and I had a great time at Morris and Mae. We were staying at the Red Rocks Origin hotel and stumbled upon this food market on our walk. It happened to be Mardi Gras so there was live music too. We tried the Mac Nation and the New Orleans dish was the winner. It had good spice and the sausage was so good with the cheesy mac. These dishes are huge so you will have leftovers or to share. We enjoyed having drinks at the bar after dinner. It is a cool spot.

Stopped in with my 3 kids after a day at Dinosaur Ridge and Red Rocks. Every parent knows it's next to impossible to go somewhere everyone likes but this food hall made it so easy! There's multiple delicious restaurants and everything can be ordered straight from your phone. There's even a bar in the center if you're feeling like a beverage. Very relaxed atmosphere. Pretty quiet when we were there (week day late lunch). Seemed like a cool workspace as well. Happy we found it on Yelp!

Look what moved to my side of town! A very much needed new venue of multiple food outlets. This place has it all. From Italian to ice cream. From stair-step seating to comfy couches. It has a great centerpiece bar with several different food styles. It's multi level, and in a beautiful, setting near the old Heritage Square. I actually feel bad because I hardly took any photos. I was having such a good time and there were so many different places to try. I completely forgot! But that's OK because you don't need photos to know how great this place is. You just need to go!

Cool food hall with a cozy bar and good ambiance. Unfortunately the food is only mediocre. Live music and events like comedy night bump this place up a peg. There are 6 food vendors serving Mac n cheese, coffee and cupcakes, poke bowls, wraps, tacos, and small veggieless entrees. The macaroni place has a ton of options like pulled pork, chicken, bacon, buffalo, ranch etc., and the portions are huge, but the mac itself is a little bland and the way it's quickly heated sometimes leaves it cold in the middle. The taco place is ok. Tacos were fine but the bowls or soup are better. Haven't tried the rest yet, but my wife liked the poke bowl. The bar has all Colorado beer & liquor. 16 taps, excellent specialty cocktails, and very friendly service. So the food is just okay but the rest is great.
