Pokeworks to Make its Long-Awaited Debut in Colorado

TL;DR

Pokeworks is opening its first location in Colorado, offering a free poke bowl to the first 100 guests in line on opening day. The brand plans to open four more locations in the state over the next two years.

The popular fast-casual brand is opening its doors to the public on Jan. 18 in Greenwood Village at 8000 E. Belleview Ave. inside the Belleview Promenade shopping center for its first ever Colorado location. To celebrate, the first 100 guests in line on opening day will receive a FREE regular sized poke bowl.

But the celebration does not stop with the grand opening. On Jan. 20, Pokeworks will host a ribbon cutting ceremony with special appearances from the Mayor and City Council.

“After so much anticipation, we’re so excited to finally open the first Pokeworks in the Mile High City,” said Franchisee Thi Tran. “This area deserves fresh, customizable and healthy poke bowls, so we can’t wait to begin serving the Denver community soon and look forward to continuing our growth across this great state!”

Once open, the Greenwood Village Pokeworks will be serving guests every day from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. This debut in Denver is just the beginning for Pokeworks in Colorado, with four more locations planned to open over the next two years.

Pokeworks was founded in 2015 with the simple mission of spreading its love of poke – the crisp, fresh, healthy Hawaiian favorite – with the world. Pokeworks' innovative Poke Your Way™ approach is groundbreaking, offering guests limitless ways to customize their poke order to match their eating preferences including vegan, gluten-free, and other mindful diets. The Poke Burrito has developed a cult-like following, much like Pokeworks’ proprietary sauces, which range from sweet and spicy to savory.

Pokeworks believes in living a healthy lifestyle and eating meals made from the freshest, highest quality ingredients from sustainable food sources. In 2022, the brand was honored to be named the “Top Poke Franchise” by Startups Magazine. Pokeworks has quickly expanded to become the leading fast-casual poke brand in the world with three consecutive years on Fast Casual’s “Top 100 Movers and Shakers” list.
