Long a staple in the Midwest, the Bar Louie chain has landed in Colorado. At the Shops at Northfield, Bar Louie is the perfect spot for a mid-shopping beer; it also makes a great holding pen for husbands waiting out a long run by their significant others. The menu features such bar standards as wings […]
Cliff Young and his son, Zach, opened the doors of Bar Red in late 2013. But beyond those doors was a stunning renovation of an old stone building at 437 West Colfax Avenue, just around the corner from CY Steaks, which Cliff also ran until 2018 (he passed away in 2021). More than just a […]
After this spot’s long run as the Atrium Bar & Grill, new owners took it over, cleaned it up and made it into a respectable neighborhood watering hole called the Bar. As the name might imply, it’s a no-frills joint where pretty much anyone is welcome. While the bar on the south side of the […]
A self-proclaimed “stray bar,” the Barker Lounge attracts a wide variety of patrons — even if the disco balls hanging from the ceiling and Madonna tunes blaring from the jukebox suggest otherwise. The humble interior at 475 Santa Fe Drive (where it moved in 2012) is similar to that of its old South Broadway location: […]

In early 2022, Robert Champion and Mario Nocifera debuted a dance bar/immersive venue inspired by Tulum and Burning Man in the heart of RiNo, and it’s become a late-night haven. The space includes several hubs created by a core crew of a dozen local artists, including a beehive-themed geodesic dome, a garden-like outdoor space, and […]
From the outside, the Beer Depot Lounge might look a little sketchy, but this 38th Avenue dive is fairly clean and respectable inside. The friendly joint has its share of locals and regulars, who come for cheap drinks and drink specials, free pool, shuffleboard, live music, karaoke and occasional free bar food.
Beers just taste better on a patio. And way, waaay better when they’re local! Belleview Beer Garden is brought to you by the love of all things Colorado – celebrating the outdoors, craft brews and community. Located in the heart of Denver Tech Center at the ever-growing Belleview Station, we’re home to South Denver’s sunniest, […]
Part of the trio of bars forming the “Beermuda Triangle” at the corner of 38th and Tennyson, the Berkeley Inn is a neighborhood institution. The joint opened in 1934 and is rumored to have subterranean tunnels made for transporting bootleg alcohol during Prohibition. Regulars band together to help out other regulars in times of need, […]

How do you know when you’re in Big Trouble? Just ascend the sweeping wooden staircase until you see a sign that reads “You’re in Big Trouble.” This mezzanine-level bar is Kiss + Ride’s more upscale counterpart, boasting an Asian-alley theme and some almost futuristic drink options. The highball, for example, is served from a Suntory […]
Cocktail culture has thoroughly inundated America, but in 2011, when Boulder’s Bitter Bar opened as the late-night speakeasy alter-ego of the now-defunct Happy Noodle House, there was no other game like it in metro Denver. Bartender James Lee built a quick following with his precise drinks – be they long-forgotten classics or inventive creations – […]
The folks behind Oskar Blues have a two-decades-long history of hosting live music at their various spots around the state, so it’s not surprising that they did a superb job renovating the downtown basement space that was once home to the original Brendan’s Pub and, more recently, Pat’s Philly Steaks & Subs. Since opening in […]
In September 2013, Harry Smith, a longtime brewer at Breckenridge Brewery, opened Black Sky Brewery, just a block from his old employer and with Breckenridge’s full support. Black Sky, which dishes up Connecticut-style pizza along with its beer, was a long time in the making. As noted on its website, the brewery’s 23 taps feature […]
While it might have started off trying to be a non-LoDo-like bar, Blue Ice is probably the closest thing to a LoDo-vibed dance club in the Baker District — only with cheaper drinks. In fact, the martini bar has pretty much cornered the South Broadway dance-club market. The crowds vary with the club’s themed nights, […]
Dubbed “Boulder’s Home of the Blues,” Blues & Greens Restaurant (which was formerly Skinny Jay’s Pizza) really qualifies as Colorado’s Home of the Blues. One of the few spots on the Front Range focused primarily on the genre, Blues & Greens takes its dedication seriously. Almost every night of the week, it brings in fine […]

Zdenek Srom opened Bohemian Biergarten, his European-style beer garden, in spring 2013 at the Boulder address that once housed Trilogy. And although this place is very unlike that legendary spot in many ways, like Trilogy, it focuses on creating community. A community of people who enjoy good beer and hearty food to go with it. […]
First opened in an old goat shed by two University of Colorado professors in 1979, the Boulder Beer Company is the oldest microbrewery in Colorado. At their Pub — a full-service restaurant — you can choose from a long list of menu items accompanied by suggested beer pairings. Try the half-pound Buff burger (all natural; […]
A decade ago, you might have been forgiven for blowing through the stretch of I-70 between Denver and the Eisenhower tunnel. But now you have good reason to slow your roll and exit the highway, and not just for a reprieve from weekend traffic. At the Silver Plume turnoff, make a beeline to the Bread […]
After sixty years, Jerry Feld sold his beloved Club 404, and in February 2012, the place reopened as Denver Wheel Club 404. But that incarnation never really got on a roll, and in November 2012, 404 Broadway changed ownership again. It’s been bought by Kevin Geraghty, owner of the defunct (and still missed) Brendan’s Pub, […]
