If you like the restaurant scene in Boulder you likely have checked out Under the Sun, one of the newest restaurants to come from Boulder-based Mountain Sun. This establishment specializes in tasty wood-fire grilled pizzas and sits next door to its sister-restaurant Southern Sun.
Under the Sun opened its doors at 627-A South Broadway in the Table Mesa Shopping Center in 2012. General manager Will Doerrmann says what they love most about residing at this location is the great surrounding neighborhood of south Boulder. “It’s been fun watching the identity and culture of south Boulder flourish,” Doerrmann says. “It’s a neighborhood where everyone knows each other.”
More entrée-driven than the four other pubs, new chef Nick Swanson has created some great dishes, including what Doerrmann describes as the “best roasted chicken in Boulder”, as well as great fried chicken.
The restaurant has 31 beers on tap, 21 of which are produced by Mountain Sun. Plus, it is the only restaurant in south Boulder to serve wine on tap. Click here to see Under the Sun’s dinner menu and wine list.
The comfortable atmosphere is a big draw for customers, but that doesn’t mean it’s boring. In 2015, Yonder Mountain String Band played a memorable show at the restaurant. It was the only intimate and free show the group played in Boulder in years, Doerrmann recalls.
Come have great food and drink with the south Boulder crowd at Under the Sun.
