Best Place to Be Irregular
Brix
On the best nights at the original Brix, it’s hard to tell who’s an employee, who’s a customer and who’s a friend. Everyone just seems to wander around carrying drinks and plates, jumping from table to table doing shots and carrying on conversations about everything under the sun. Though located in Cherry Creek, Brix is about as anti-Creek as you can get, drawing a young, hip, moneyed group of weirdos, bar-hoppers and night creatures: A small-time weed dealer, a chef on the prowl or a recently paroled arsonist would get more action here than a high-powered attorney or black-jacket politico. The food is good, the drinks are strong, the vibe is cool — but we come for the crowds, because you never know who’s going to hit the Brix.
