One of Denver’s numerous ampersand restaurants, Block & Larder, announced it will shut its doors.
The in-house butcher shop/steakhouse/bar/grill was opened in early 2015 by brothers Jason, Aaron and Lucas Forgy, who also operate the LoDo alehouse Freshcraft.
“With the New Year, we needed to take a long hard look at what we were doing. Unfortunately, it just wasn’t working for us at Block & Larder and we decided that it was time to focus elsewhere,” Jason Forgy said.
B&L’s block of Tennyson St. has become a popular stretch on which to open a restaurant, with The Way Back, Tenya Japanese Soul Food, Paris Crêpe and High Point Creamery all opening in the past year. Regarding the burgeoning neighborhood and increased competition — for both workers and diners — Jason said it was a matter of where they wanted to focus their energy and use limited resources.
For a final taste of Block & Larder’s hanging tender and broiled mac & cheese, get there before it closes on Saturday, Jan. 26.
