Music in Denver
Showing 1 - 22 of 592After a long run as the Golden Cue and a brief stint as Chasers, the owner of JR’s Silver Bullet in Thornton and England native Rob Kirk opened @ Cheers in March, 2011. While the place still hangs on to some of its charm when it was the Golden Cue (yes, there are still plenty […]
Just when you think Olde Town Arvada might be turning a little too precious, you stumble into the dark and down-home 12 Volt Tavern, an old dive that harks back to the days when factory workers would stop in for a shot before heading home. Today this is a true rock-and-roll joint, with a good […]
Connoisseurs of live music will tell you that something is lost when an artist becomes popular enough to perform in an arena. While this may be true at some places, it’s certainly not the case at Broomfield’s 1STBANK Center, where the sound is pretty well dialed in virtually anywhere you sit. The venue, which sits […]
The 1UP has branched out to three locations in the Denver area, but it’s the Colfax Avenue location that’s closest to our circuit boards. Sure, the longtimers wax poetic about the days when the 1UP hosted live music – and they’re right – but we dare you to find a better place for cheap suds, […]
Opened in March 2011, the 1UP Arcade Bar is an arcade, bar and restaurant with locations in Lodo and on Colfax Avenue. Vintage arcade games, Skee-Ball, pinball machines and cutting-edge multi-player video games are the main draw. The Greenwood Village outpost of 1UP opened in December 2018.
Opened in March 2011, the 1UP LoDo is an arcade, bar and restaurant. Located just half a block from Coors Field, the place features more than thirty vintage arcade games, all from 1985 and earlier, including Pac-Man, Tetris, Galaga, Mortal Kombat and Tron. Named after the green mushroom that you earn in Mario Brothers when […]
In 2016, bar pros Corey Costello, Sudhir Kudva and Michael Reilly resurrected this long-vacant Five Points joint that was originally owned by Charles Cousins. The 715 was in its prime in the 1940s, and closed in the ’80s after becoming a run-down shell of its former glorious self. Now it’s an appropriately divey neighborhood bar […]
Call it the luck of the Irish: With the Abbey Tavern, Glen Eastwood has managed to create a pub that’s better than the sum of its parts. The former general manager of a couple of Irish bars around town, Eastwood turned an old florist’s shop on East Colfax into a true hangout for Park Hill, […]
Since alcohol put Golden on the map, it’s not surprising that one of the area’s best dive bars is located in this town. Bar fans have been living it up at the Ace-Hi since Leo Stillman purchased the old Opera House restaurant on historic Washington Avenue and opened the bar back in 1961. Leo’s son, […]
Fort Collins’s biggest live-music hall is in a 100-year-old building that was previously a movie theater and then retrofitted with two bars. The 650-capacity venue sports a broad, multi-leveled floor that ensures a good view from anywhere, although a brutal chain-link fence separates the aged from the underaged. While the Aggie is downtown FoCo’s main […]
While it’s squashed into a small mall overlooking a parking lot, the interior feel of Arugula is gracious, modern and warm – and the Northern Italian food turned out by chef/owner Alec Schuler has the same contemporary hominess. The seasonal menu features farm-to-table ingredients, many of them locally sourced; the roster is rich with such […]
When you stumble off the 16th Street Mall and into the Appaloosa, a cheerful, independently owned spot, odds are good that you’ll hit a happy hour, because the Appaloosa’s happy-hour schedule is expansive — almost as expansive as the drinks are inexpensive. And you can down those drinks while listening to live music every night […]
Those of us who lamented the closing of restaurant mogul Robert Thompson’s groundbreaking Argyll in Cherry Creek worried about how the concept would survive the transition to Uptown, where the restaurant finally reopened in June 2014. Would his gastropub — now named Argyll Whisky Beer — feel pass
