Six years after opening Katie Mullen’s on the 16th Street Mall, the bar’s owners took over the former biker-friendly Rockstar Bar and transformed it into the more upscale watering hole Wee Katie’s, which opened in early 2015. The 99-seat (not including two patios) Wee Katie’s has some of the feel of Katie Mullen’s, with a […]

The Tilted Kilt has been compared to Hooters with an Irish accent, and there’s plenty in this giant, two-story pub to flip your skirt. A large, outdoor patio welcomes you; double doors lead into an enormous dining room and bar area decorated with tartans, statues in full body armor, flags from around the world and […]
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. It also […]
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 […]
This bar is named for the myotonic goats whose muscles stiffen when they’re surprised, causing the animals to occasionally fall over. But don’t expect goat-inspired decor: This is a low-key neighborhood spot through and through, and it delivers stiff drinks in an old building that’s held great casual hangouts for decades. A comfortable joint where […]

You can consider Dougherty’s a semi-Irish pub, one that’s catered to all in the Baker neighborhood for over fifteen years. It’s also home to hammerschlagen, a game involving a tree stump, hammer and nails – not the safest bar game ever devised, but a damn fun one. The drinks are strong, there are daily happy-hour […]
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 guys clearly know a thing or two about running an Irish pub, and Slattery’s was designed as a public house that one might find on the streets of Dublin’s City […]
Located in Highlands Ranch, Lansdowne Arms is essentially a modern take on a traditional Irish pub. The moniker was borrowed from Lansdowne Road Stadium in Dublin, the oldest of the international rugby union’s grounds, hosting Ireland’s matches since 1878. The pub serves updated versions of traditional Irish favorites, like shepherd’s pie and fish and chips, […]
Attached to the Celtic Tavern, Delaney’s Bar is a bit more relaxed than its neighbor next door. While elements of the Celtic Tavern might scream “Irish pub,” Delaney’s whispers it. Delaney’s is the more spacious of the two, making it an easy fix if the Celtic is packed. Both places sport leather chairs and fireplaces, […]
While the number of Irish bars in Denver has dwindled over the years, the Rover is still going strong. Open since 2005, it’s the perfect place to catch a Saturday-afternoon buzz, preferably kicked off with a proper pint of Guinness. On cold winter days, the comfy pub offers refuge, while its rooftop patio beckons when […]
A Ballpark neighborhood mainstay for years, Scruffy Murphy’s has the old-worldness of an authentic Irish pub with its authentic antique stained glass and the dark wood of its back bar and bar top. While it’s warm and inviting at times, the weekends can get a little boisterous when there’s live music. The bar serves a […]

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: […]
With a large patio and huge, wood-accented interior, Fad
Located in an upscale DTC strip mall, Darcy’s Irish Pub and Bistro is a chic eatery/Irish-pub hybrid that caters to an after-work crowd. Three seating areas complement the social atmosphere: a dark wood bar (with the requisite Irish ales and whiskeys on tap), a dining area with tables and booths, and a cozy library in […]
