Summit Music Hall, opened by folks at Soda Jerk Presents and now operated by Live Nation, is a rock anomaly among the usual LoDo fare. Offering a larger, companion spot to the concert promoter’s other downtown location, the Marquis Theater (also operated by Live Nation), the 12,500-
For nearly four decades, the Summit Steakhouse in Aurora has catered to a meat-and-potatoes-loving crowd. In some ways, not a lot has changed over the years. Tablecloths and tea lights are still de rigueur. Red roses are given to female guests, and on many nights, a pianist tickles the ivories in the lounge. Entrees such […]
Boulder: Bask in the sun as it rolls over the foothills…blah blah blah. Ever wanted to duck into a windowless watering hole while your aunt from out of town shops for a fleece vest at Patagonia? Descend into the subterranean Sundown, which promises booze and plenty of it. As its name implies, it’s dark. It’s […]

While Swanky’s is only a stone’s throw from Coors Field, this sports bar is hailed as Denver’s home for Green Bay Packers football. During football season, expect swarms of Cheeseheads on Sundays, but once baseball season starts it’s a comfortable spot to watch the game or grab drinks before or after the Rockies games. Don’t […]
If skinny British lady Rachel Ashwell, who brought Shabby Chic into the lives of upper-middle-class women nationwide, opened a salon, Sweet Life would be it. Dark mahogany-stained floors provide a foundation for light-blue chandeliers, oversized off-white linen chairs, pastel vintage doors and soft, sheer curtains in this Stapleton salon, where anything is possible as long […]
Although golf is a big sport in Colorado, there are few opportunities to play in the dead of winter. The bar, which is next to the Robusto Room, has state-of-the-art golf simulators that allow you to play eighteen holes in under an hour — on one of more than fifty championship golf courses.
After a five-year stint as a talent buyer at the Meadowlark, Jonathan Bitz started what would become a three-year hunt for his own place. In August 2013, he took over the building at 554 South Broadway that most recently housed the Bar (and the Atrium before that) and began transforming the space into Syntax Physic […]

A damn cool spot stocked with seventeen beers on tap, including Boddingtons, Kronenbourg, Hoegaarden, Beamish Irish Stout and a few local microbrews. The place is jumping too, especially on Mondays, when the lovely and talented Angie Stevens holds court at the weekly open stage. And on Saturdays, there’s a steady stream of live blues and […]
After a long run on the second-floor corner of 15th and Champa streets, Tarantula Billiards moved to street level a block east in early 2012, giving the pool hall much more visibility. The new space has a sleek and classy look, closer to that of sister pool hall ZanZibar Billiards and Grill, which is owned […]
It’s no surprise that Oskar Blues, one of the most beloved craft breweries in the state, is responsible for the Tasty Weasel Tap Room, one of the most beloved tap rooms in Colorado. Between the tournament-style Skee-Ball lanes (there are regular team sign-ups for tournaments), the frequent live music, free daily tours of the brewery […]
Perhaps the best feature of the Tavern Downtown is its massive rooftop patio, a broad space that features expansive views of downtown and the Front Range. During mealtimes — including weekend brunch — a menu of bar-food classics is available for the groups that sit at tables outside and in, usually partaking in daytime drinking […]
Known for its karaoke nights, the friendly regulars at this funky Lakewood dive are fairly supportive of anyone who wants to take a shot grabbing the microphone and belting (or at least trying) out a tune. With decently priced drinks, which can be quite strong at times, it’s not going to bust your wallet getting […]

Like the other Taverns, the Tavern Tech Center draws a sizable nightly crowd from the surrounding neighborhoods. Those twenty- and thirty-something professionals pack into the dark bar and expansive back patio for drink specials, televised sporting events and socializing. While many come just for the beers and the party, this Tavern also does a substantial […]
Like the other Taverns, the Tavern Uptown draws a sizable nightly crowd from the surrounding neighborhoods. Those twenty- and thirty-something professionals pack into the dark bar and expansive back patio for drink specials, televised sporting events and socializing. While many come just for the beers and the party — which is more mellow Uptown than […]
It’s no secret that Lakewood (and, while we’re at it, Wheat Ridge) is a vast culinary labyrinth of chains and uninspiring independent restaurants that force suburbanites to empty their change in downtown meters. And that’s what inspired Larimer Associates COO Joe Vostrejs, his brothers Steve and Matt, and Rod Wagner, acquisitions and project management partner […]
