Just 26 miles southeast of Las Vegas sits Boulder City, one of two cities in Nevada that forbids gambling. It’s also a great jumping off point before or after visit Lake Mead National Recreation Area and Hoover Dam. Fortunately, there are lots to eat and drink in the town so you may not even notice that you can’t bet on anything. And if not, feel free to keep drinking until you do. Diners that are open early and long hours, a candy parlor with nostalgic candy, a brewing company featuring local beer, a wine cellar, a barbecue joint and even an Italian spot are just some of the places to grab a quick bite or leisurely meal. If that isn’t enough to get you interested, there is also a place in Boulder City where you can grab one of those famous and even vegan Dole whips. Check out the 13 best restaurants and bars to visit in Boulder City. All are listed from west to east.
