In 2007, when the U.S. government finally allowed absinthe to be made and sold in this country, distiller Stephen Gould was ready. By 2008, his hobby had become Golden Moon Distillery, which has since expanded to an eclectic lineup of liqueurs. In 2014, this tasting room that doubles as a destination for classic cocktails opened […]
Located across from the Bluebird Theater, Goosetown Tavern draws beer drinkers and music fans from the East Colfax corridor and beyond. After Bluebird owner Chris Swank, who also owns Mezcal next door, bought Goosetown from the Wynkoop Restaurant Group in mid-2014, the bar started hosting live music. It typically has a neighborhood-bar vibe, but the […]

It’s the kind of place where, if you’re having some problem (be it psychological, marital, political or just […]

Grizzly Rose owner Scott Durland took over the former After the Gold Rush space in 2011, completely redoing the outside of the building, the stage, and electrical and lighting systems. But Durland says they kept the ceiling lights from the Gold Rush days, and the entrance has been revamped to look like a mine shaft […]
A gracious extension of its next door, multi-level restaurant and lounge, Sushi Hai, Hai Bar is a beautiful underground sanctuary spreading across two spacious basement rooms. Equitably designed for both sushi nibbling and cocktails, plush couches and within-reach tables mix with wall-to-wall booths, standing bar tops and private rooms for six or more. Live DJs, […]
Located on a secluded stretch of Quebec Street in Commerce City across the street from Dick’ Sporting Good Park, Halftime Sport Bar brings in a fair share of locals and folks driving by who might be curious or who come for the karaoke. But hey, if you do happen to be in the area, say […]
A few months before opening Boone’s Tavern November 2011, B.U.F.F. Brothers co-owner Rob Lanphier split with his business partner and started a new company, Pour Kids, that would later became Table to Tavern. In early 2012, he added HandleBar Tavern, formerly the Downing Street Bar & Grill, to his stable and subscribed the bar to […]
It’s hard to miss the Beer Can Bomber hanging over the bar when you enter this East Colfax dive. The massive airplane sculpture was made from beer cans of yesteryear, like Blatz, Hamm’s, Schmidt and a host of others you may have forgotten about if you’ve been around since World War II. The Hangar has […]
Hanson’s is the sort of place you find one night when every other table in the neighborhood is booked, then return to whenever you have an open Friday and no reservations. For families out for a fast, easy dinner; for big, rowdy gangs of college kids looking for their own rathskeller; for solo drinkers seeking […]

Herb’s has worn many hats throughout its long, long (it was erected in 1933) tenure: dive, cougar bar, live-music dance hall, a place to escape LoDo douchebags. And while we can’t promise that it won’t violate any and all aforementioned descriptors upon entry, the historic tavern remains a go-to respite from its gentrified surroundings. Yes, […]
The bars at these conjoined spaces are two sides of the same coin – both a little worn and gritty, but still good for quick shots or planting yourself for the long haul. Since 2003, the hi-dive has been a refuge from crass commercialism and bland bars catering to the masses. Cheap, stiff drinks and […]
Hot bartenders and waitresses wearing ass-less chaps with their panties: It seems like a gimmick. But it’s just one of the things that keep guys coming back to this Westminster sports bar. Well, that and live music on the weekends, a decent-sized checkered dance floor, cheep beer, pool, karaoke and a large patio. A working-class […]
The High Lonesome is no dive bar like its predecessor, the Arabian Bar. The bottle shelves are too precise and tidy, the clientele too young and attractive. But the place is still dark, comfortable and inviting, with few windows to let in annoying things like sunlight or a summer breeze. Denver has its share of […]
Since opening in 2006, this hip, low-maintenance LoHi watering hole has attracted a large fan base of regulars, some of whom come in with their scooter clubs or kickball and hockey teams. It’s a neighborhood bar through and through; many of the patrons are locals or newcomers to the area. That said, the Highland attracts […]
