English in Denver
Showing 1 - 9 of 9With 6.6 billion people on the earth who view soccer (or football) as their sport of choice, it’s surprising there aren’t more spots like the Three Lions, which opened in the former Bank Bar & Grill space in August 2011. Billing itself as a world football pub, the Three Lions is modeled after a traditional […]
For years, Denver has been aching for a real, serious Irish pub. With Katie Mullen’s, it didn’t just get one, it got four — thanks to this huge space inside the Sheraton and clever architecture that allowed the endeavor to sprout four differently styled bars covering a good swath of Hibernian drinking history.

After opening the Irish Snug on East Colfax and McLoughlin’s near LoDo, the McLoughlin brothers opened Slattery’s in the Landmark development in Greenwood Village.

The menu, while lacking the glitz and style of trendier eateries, is filled with soul-satisfying pub […]
If you’re looking for something Irish in LoDo and prefer to avoid the sports-bar crowd, Celtic Tavern might be just the ticket. Eschewing a green-beer motif in favor of decor that incorporates literary works from the Emerald Isle’s finest, Celtic Tavern presents a distinct Gaelic theme.

Pints Pub claims to have the largest collection of single-malt whisky outside of Britain — and it certainly has the largest collection in Denver. The spot is also a brewpub, and it crafts a variety of beers, including English-style cask-conditioned live brews and low-alcohol session ales. And it’s from that activity that Scott Diamond, who […]
