Named after a Boston-area blacksmith from the late 1800s, Paddy the Yank (formerly Patrick Carroll’s) was started by one of his descendants in 2005. This Berkeley neighborhood watering hole is an updated take on the traditional Irish pub, one of the few in the area. While the cozy, inviting spot brings in a decent lunch […]
Not only is Paris open long after other restaurants have shut their doors, but it opens back up in time for that first cup of java. While away the wee hours downing espresso and browsing through used books while munching on sandwiches, salads, soups and eclectic pizzas.
Park Center Lounge in Westminster — which touts itself as “the Cheers of North Denver” — is definitely a step back to a time when lounges were carpeted, wood-paneled and not dominated by plasma screens. There are TVs, yes, but the focus here is on the simple cocktails, big menu and well-worn dance floor. A […]
Located in Firestone, on the east side of I-25 across from Longmont, Parrott’s Sports Grill prides itself on its slow-cooked chicken wings, which it proclaims are the best this side of the Mississippi River. Parrott’s also serves Southern-style barbecue (pulled pork, smoked chicken, eighteen-hour brisket, ribs), prime rib, appetizers and burgers. There are plenty of […]
Pearl’s nightclub, at 608 East 13th Avenue in the Capitol Hill neighborhood, is a cutting edge social spot and dance club. If you love music, are looking for a place to shake your booty with your friends, or are looking for a casual nightclub or neighborhood bar to hang, Pearl’s is the spot. Pearl’s hosts […]

Pete Contos, the late Greek restaurant magnate, purchased the Satire over sixty years ago. From its classic neon sign to its legendary history (Bob Dylan and the Smothers Brothers both performed here), this spot is old Denver through and through, even following a recent update and remodel headed up by Contos’s grandson Alex Barakos. The […]
The Pioneer Inn has made a lot of history — and music — since it opened in Nederland four decades ago. During the heyday of the Caribou Ranch, a recording studio that ran from the early ’70s until it was damaged by fire in 1985, musicians stopping in Colorado for recording sessions would take breaks […]
University of Denver sports teams are dubbed the Pioneers, and we think any frontiersman (or -woman) would appreciate the hearty fare at the Pioneer, a DU watering hole. The fare is bar food, but it’s quality bar food, including top-notch green chile and some of the town’s best nachos, with every chip loaded individually. And […]
For more than two decades, the Platte River Bar & Grill has been a fixture among bikers and cyclists alike. The Platte’s massive outdoor seating area, which can accommodate more than 300 folks, has prime views of the Front Range and the Platte itself, which is a stone’s throw away. There’s live music on the […]
A weird and wonderful surprise awaits those who wander into Pon Pon, a respite from the more popular and populated bars of teeming RiNo. Records crackle on the speakers, a tiny bar – the kind your uncle might have in his swank, wood-paneled basement – pours creative cocktails, loungey spaces invite lingering, and art installations […]
Prosit is an unassuming little beer hall tucked among the trendy bars and hipster joints on West 32nd Avenue, in the space formerly held by Asian-Mexican spot BOA. Decked out in dark wood with Bavarian-inspired touches, Prosit may just fool you into thinking you’re in Munich as you relax at the long, bierhall-style table or […]

The PS Lounge is a throwback like no other. The cash-only bar still looks and feels straight out of the ’80s, which is when it opened. Owner Pete Siahamis calls it a “girls’ bar” and makes sure every woman who crosses the threshold gets a single rose and a syrupy-sweet Alabama Slammer shot. This is […]
A sports bar where local teams and the occasional Hawkeye game (both owners hail from Iowa) dominate the TV screens, Pub on Pearl sits like an oasis between the I-25 corridor and Wash Park. Despite being butted up against the highway, the bar has a pleasant wrap-around patio where both people and dogs are welcome, […]
The original Punch Bowl Social opened on Broadway in 2012 as a premier fun zone for adults. The newer Stapleton location, at 3120 Uinta Street, continues the tradition in a breathtaking space built into the former airport’s control tower. Bowling, karaoke, vintage video games and shuffleboard are just a few of the diversions, but both […]
In November 1996, Jay Bianchi and his two brothers opened the original Quixote’s True Blue at 9150 East Colfax in Aurora, as a place where Deadheads and kindred spirits could gather after Jerry Garcia’s passing. Bianchi says he figured the venue might last five years and worried that his regulars would get older, retire, have […]
ReelWorks is an independent music and events venue, built to provide the best in sound, lighting, and visual experiences.

Pickle shots (and plenty of other flavored infusions) are what this LoDo bar is best known for. The comfy joint, which opened in 2008, has lots of space, exposed brick, darts, killer drink specials, and a menu that includes burgers, sandwiches, wraps and appetizers, along with patios in front and in back. It’s also connected […]
The crew at this space-themed speakeasy likes to get weird, which often results in the most memorable cocktails in town – some with ingredients like duck fat, soy sauce and caramel miso (it’s all fair game here). But first you’ll have to stride through the Frozen Matter ice cream shop to the walk-in cooler without […]
One of Denver’s prime spots for Tejano and New Mexico music, a lot of folks come to Rick’s Tavern to dance, which might be why the dance floor takes up most of the space in the place. Owned and run by Rick Garcia, it’s a lively spot on Saturdays and Sundays (the only nights the […]
