Rock N Soul Cafe, Boulder

This East Boulder treasure, improbably located in a strip mall, is a haven for live music lovers—rock, funk, soul, jazz, you name it—almost every night of the week. It is a café in more than just name and serves lunch, coffee, happy-hour specials and dinner to earlybirds, and the music starts. The atmosphere is casual, admission is reasonable ($8 is not uncommon) and the audience really appreciative. Most performances start at 7:30 and finish by 10 or 10:30PM, so it’s not a real late-night place. Nightcrawlers can continue elsewhere, but many Boulderites head home because they have big outdoor plans the next morning.
