The Hai Bar

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, […]

Halftime Sports Bar

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 […]

HandleBar Tavern

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 […]

Hangar Bar

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 Grill & Tavern

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 […]

Harry’s Bar & Grill

Looking for a classy, somewhat hole-in-the-wall spot but still want to be within reach of the Denver nightlife? Harry’s Bar may be just what you’re looking for. Sitting in a prime location on the first floor of the luxurious Magnolia Hotel on 17th Street, Harry’s offers an intimate seating area in which to relax and […]

Hayter’s & Co.

The 6,200-square-foot space that was formerly Lizard’s Bar & Grill is now Hayter’s & Co., a sports bar with a throwback feel that’s definitely planning for a long future in Denver. Hanging on one wall are framed, enlarged baseball cards of players from the ’70s and ’80s, including Rollie Fingers, Pete Ladd and Bruce Sutter; […]

Herb’s Hideout

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, […]

Heritage Square Music Hall

Heritage Square has earned its name: Although the attraction — tucked into the foothills in Golden — has some modern draws, such as the alpine slide and bumper cars, people flock to this little corner of the metro area for the old-timey soda shoppe and stores hawking handmade wooden toys (among other wares). And the […]

Herman’s Hideaway

A kind of petri dish for the local-music scene, Herman’s Hideaway opens its stage to bands in their gestation period as well as more accomplished acts that draw well on weekend nights. An open room with minimal adornment, Herman’s feels a bit like a big basement where young players come together to perform for friends, […]

hi-dive

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 […]

Hiccups Sports Bar & Grill

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

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 […]

Highland Tavern

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 […]

Highlands Cork and Coffee

In 1907 a home was built on the corner of 32nd Ave and Meade St. in the Historic Highlands neighborhood of Denver. To complement our drink menu of espressos, chai teas, Chardonnays’, Merlots and Malbecs we have a unique offering of Panini’s, Salads and Tapas (Just to name a few). Stop in any time of […]

Historians Ale House

The long bar at Historians Ale House is reminiscent of something you would find in Boston or Chicago, with its never-ending line of taps surrounded by warm brick walls and sky-high ceilings. Head upstairs to the rooftop patio for some of the best views in the city, and dig into daily specials, brunch cocktails on […]

Hodi’s Half Note

After a long stint as the Starlight, and the Mountain Tap before that, this Old Town Fort Collins music venue reopened in 2006 as Hodi’s Half Note. With a 300-person capacity, Hodi’s is big enough to accommodate national artists as well as local bands, but still small enough to provide good views of the stage […]

Hoffbrau Colorado

After 28 years (and three expansions) at 7699 West 88th Avenue, Hoffbrau Colorado moved to a new 15,000-square-foot space at 9110 Wadsworth Parkway in early 2014. That’s about twice as big as the old location, and the new place features an expanded stage and a more ambitious concert calendar, to boot. And while the old […]

The Hornet

The Hornet took over a Denver institution, Mary & Lou’s Cafe, in 1995. Now the nearly thirty-year-old Baker spot with a secluded patio is an icon in its own right. The menu is casual and heavy on comfort food, including lots of gluten-free options like the Honey Stung Fried Chicken; the beer list is approachable; […]
