The Sink
This funky pizza joint, The Sink, on University Hill is one of the best student budget spots in town. The fact that Robert Redford once worked as a janitor here during his short stint at CU is their claim to fame, yet celebrities and dignitaries continue to visit for the burgers, even President Obama once visited. The pizzeria stays open till late, making it popular with the college crowd. It offers three crust choices based on density. Food is made from scratch and they always feature the choice of 100 percent grass-fed beef. Sandwiches, pizzas, salads, calzones-oven baked pizza, you name it; you will find at the Sink.
Pam Proto moved to Colorado in 1990 and immediately loved the Centennial State. Pam found her new home was everything she hoped for... except for one thing. She missed the pizza she had grown up with in New England -- the kind with thin, charred crust, bubbly cheese, and plenty of good memories. So she decided to bring that pizza to her new hometown. Today, Proto's is a Colorado-wide favorite. Guests will feel right at home when they're treated to a warm welcome from our staff (who are really more like family). After you've ordered, peek into our open kitchen and watch your pizza bake in our authentic Italian ovens. But hurry! In two minutes it'll be out and on its way to your table. Sit back with a glass of wine and enjoy your Proto's pie -- we promise you'll be delighted with every bite.
