The 5 Best Takeout Spots Around Grand County

Sometimes the best meals are the ones you take home — or to the lake, the trailhead, or the couch after a long day. Takeout is about convenience, yes, but also about flavor that travels well and food that feels just as satisfying outside the restaurant as it does inside. In this year’s Best of Grand contest, locals highlighted their favorite grab-and-go spots across the county.
