Probably the best, most legit tamales in Denver. Traditional red or spicier green, they are fabulous! Get 'em by the dozen, hot or frozen

I love going to La Popular for their breakfast burritos! The staff are super friendly and the last time I went in they had a pumpkin filled pastry that was amazing! Great for on the run breakfast. I haven't had their other options, but I'd go back just to interact with the kind people.

They never disappoint the food is delicious and I definitely recommend the tamales my favorite are the green tamales but I like spicy food 😊

This has been our go-to whenever we want delicious, authentic tamales! Their breakfast burritos and green chili are yummy and their pastries are amazing too!

Amazing tamales! Very friendly staff as well and incredibly authentic. I plan to come back as much as possible

Tasty Mexican baked goods as well as various lunch fare. I strongly recommend the smothered breakfast burrito if available (though it often sells out quickly). Alternately any of the combos offered are delicious.

La Popular far precedes the growth and gentrification of the neighborhood but remains a decent spot to get pre-made tamales to go or supplies to make your own including their masa. Food has been more hit or miss over the last few years, would guess they are feeling the pressure of the increasing cost in the neighborhood and starting to skimp on some ingredients. I'm sure the demographic of their customers has really changed and I'm sure that's challenging. I'll still come by for some cheap and delicious tamales when I'm in the area though.

I've been getting their smothered beef and been green chili burrito since 2010. Always consistent. Always fast. Spoken briefly to the owner once or twice. Very cordial. He seemed grateful to me as a customer. Check 'em out!

I live a few blocks away and this is a great place to get your masa, tortillas, and any other Mexican foods, you desire. The staff is always very friendly.. I normally get a mix of red and green tamales with a pint of beans in a pint of chili. I also buy their masa to make my own tortillas. Great place.m!

Came back for the first time in years and picked up some tamales, chips, and salsa. There’s something abt Popular’s tamales that is unique. Almost like al dente noodles, they are super firm which gives a satisfying bite to sink in to. YUM! The chips are very sturdy, great for dipping and the salsa is refreshing with respectable spice. The only thing keeping this from a five-star review are the high prices, but I get that this area, just like many in Denver is getting pricier. The price of being Popular.
