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 […]

The Kentucky Inn, one of the oldest bars in the West Wash Park neighborhood, closed in July 2017 for a remodel and the installation of a new kitchen. Inside, decades of cigarette-smoke stains were scrubbed away, new floors and wood paneling were installed, and a billiards room was added at the back. The original Kentucky […]
Rethink what dance music culture should be. We began with a simple goal. To revitalize the Denver music scene. We may have moved past map points and shows at Bishop’s Castle (Fs in the chat), but our independent spirit still remains. We invite you to experience our new venue, welcome home friends. Return to the […]
Launched by veteran Denver barmen Adam Hodak and Alex Lerman in early 2021 after many pandemic-related delays, the L is a straightforward, low-key place to get a damn good drink. There’s no food on site (though there’s plenty to be found nearby), and the cocktail list is smartly succinct – but every single option is […]

With cove lighting illuminating the brushed-steel front and back bars and sweeping color kinetics, La Rumba resembles a liquor-filled laserium. Add to that the award some great club nights – Latin on Fridays and Saturday’s Salsa night — and this Golden Triangle treasure becomes one hot tamale.
Those who ignore history are doomed to repeat it. But at least the fern bars and private clubs of the ’70s and ’80s were done up in style, making a little (or a lot of) historical pilfering perfect for a new generation of LoHi bar-goers. Forest green, burnished gold, palm trees and cherrywood finishes can […]
The Lakewood Grill has been around even longer than the city of Lakewood itself. The bar was built in 1950 and poured its first drinks (officially) in 1951, back when this stretch of West Colfax was just unincorporated Jefferson County. Lakewood became a city in 1969, and the Grill was there for that, too. Through […]

Where else but the Lancer Lounge could get away with having the Dirty Dancing soundtrack blaring — unironically — over the din of grizzled drinkers circling round the bar and pool balls knocking heads in the next room? This classic dive sticks out like the best kind of sore thumb, with a vibe not unlike […]
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, […]
The Larimer Lounge does one thing better than anyone else in the area: It brings the rock. Sure, the venue has brought in indie-rock progenitors like Sonic Youth’s Thurston Moore and Sebadoh, but it’s also seen acts like Arcade Fire and Bat for Lashes, which have since outgrown the venue. You’ll feel like a member […]
This multi-roomed, multi-level sports bar seems perpetually packed, especially on game days, trivia nights or any weekend. A true cross-section of Boulder’s population frequents the place, with University of Colorado students rubbing elbows with downtown residents and Boulder lifers at the bar. Even with all the crowds, Lazy Dog usually has a jovial, mellow vibe, […]

In 2014, the Boulderado Hotel became home to two bars, one new and one old. The Corner Bar, which has been around for decades, providing drinks and food in a lodge setting for hotel guests and locals alike, got a facelift. It was joined by License No. 1, which replaced the Catacombs, a longstanding college-bar […]
Formerly the Hotel Born, the new Limelight Hotel Denver begins the next chapter of Aspen Hospitality.
