I feel like every time I turn around lately another iconic Colorado restaurant is shutting down, so this is really refreshing news… One that closed is coming back!!

It was nearly seven years ago, in 2018, that Denver said goodbye to all three Jack-N-Grill locations after the owners divorced.

Most remember the restaurant for its huge breakfast burrito weighing around seven pounds, that was featured on the TV show Man VS Food with Adam Richman.

The son of the founder of Jack-N-Grill has been operating a food truck called Jack N Grill 2 since 2022. Now Jack-N-Grill will be reopening at a new brick and mortar location under the name Jack N Grill 2 on November 1st.

Jack N Grill 2 will be opening inside of the Boombox Brew Bar located at 5686 Pecos Street. The restaurant will be open Tuesday through Sunday from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m.
