One of only three Denver-area Taco John’s locations has closed

Taco John’s started in Wyoming, so you’d think Denver would have way more restaurants, right? With one recently closing, we’re now down to just two.

One of just three Denver-area Taco John’s locations was a victim of a handful of recent closings for the company. The location in Denver off of I-25 and 58th Avenue, which doubled as a Steak Escape is now shuttered along with locations in Windsor, Clifton, Grand Junction, Sterling, and Fort Morgan.

That leaves the two remaining Denver-area locations in Westminster near I-25 and 136th Ave and in Thornton off of I-25 and Thornton Parkway.

I don’t care what anyone says, their Potato Oles may be the best fast food side item that exists!
