When Bamboo Sushi first landed in Denver from Portland, it operated out of a stall at Avanti Food & Beverage, giving the city a tantalizing taste of its sushi. It initially garnered praise mostly for its sustainable sourcing; Bamboo’s deep commitment to good ocean stewardship is particularly admirable in a category that relies heavily on […]

This isn’t a restaurant. It’s an all-day hangout that transports you as far away from Denver as if you had clicked ruby slippers and ended up in the tropics. Brick walls are painted two shades of blue to capture the sky/water palette of Trinidad and Tobago, the islands that inspired owner Kevin Delk, the visionary […]
Back in 1996, when bang! opened in northwest Denver, Highland was far from the hot dining destination it is today. But bang! didn’t just start with a bang; it continues to do a bang-up business almost two decades later, even with a lot more competition in the neighborhood these days. It helps that bang! owns […]
With darker paints and wood-panel lined walls, the Bank Bar & Grill epitomizes a traditional Colorado bar and eatery. The menu features conventional pub food served late into the evening; the bar is filled with a number of Colorado brews on tap at all times; and a number of games line the rear of the […]
In 2004, this former Volkswagen shop was refitted as a bar with a massive garage door at the front, cement floors and a large, open patio. Since then, its divey vibes have made it a neighborhood favorite where crowds gather for First Friday. Whether you shoot a game of pool or play darts, or just […]
THE NAME. Our name is an ode to the previous tenant – The Banshee Press. We loved the name, we loved the formidable golden eyes, and we loved the allure that the Banshee legend brings to the block. THE HOUSE. Our historic house dates back to 1885, before Larimer was bustling in different ways and […]
There’s not much atmosphere here, but the sushi’s fresh, so skip the cooked dishes and eat it raw. And be sure to peruse the menu, because reading the names of Banzai’s innovative rolls is half the fun. With dishes like the Chernobyl, the Shake-N-Bake, the ever-popular Drum Roll, and both the Tighty Whitey and the […]

The opening of Bar 404 in December 2021 is just the latest chapter in this spot’s long history. Built in 1929, it became a bar the day after Prohibition ended in 1933. In 1951, it was purchased by Jerry Feld, who ran the place for sixty years as Club 404. The building was briefly Denver […]
When Leigh Jones – of Horseshoe Lounge fame – bought the Recovery Room a decade ago, she overhauled it completely. The resulting Bar Car looks a little nondescript, but the rustic interior, with its old-timey railroad theme, is a pleasant surprise. Also pleasantly surprising, given Colorado Boulevard’s penchant for chains, is that the Bar Car […]
Open since 2015, Bar Dough feels like a longtime staple in LoHi, where the Italian eatery offers pasta, pizza, small plates and a top-notch happy hour. In the summer of 2024, chef Stefy Devita took the helm, bringing a fresh take on this spot’s impressive fare.
Long a staple in the Midwest, the Bar Louie chain has landed in Colorado. At the Shops at Northfield, Bar Louie is the perfect spot for a mid-shopping beer; it also makes a great holding pen for husbands waiting out a long run by their significant others. The menu features such bar standards as wings […]
Max Hopewell-Arizmendi and Yuki Koyama founded Cafe Max in 2013 and transitioned the airy, European-flavored bistro to Bar Max in 2016. Now owner Marshall Smith is behind the bar, and the Denver native is offering a rainbow of possibilities that allow guests to design the custom cocktail of their wildest dreams. The Flavor Wheel and […]

The former Capitol Hill Tavern was resurrected in 2020 when Bar Nun opened in that space, with irreverent decor (think a painting of Jesus with Juggalo face paint and plenty of nun imagery) and a staff that will make you feel like a regular immediately. Whether you’re pounding pickle shots on the enclosed patio or […]
Cliff Young and his son, Zach, opened the doors of Bar Red in late 2013. But beyond those doors was a stunning renovation of an old stone building at 437 West Colfax Avenue, just around the corner from CY Steaks, which Cliff also ran until 2018 (he passed away in 2021). More than just a […]
Once the home of Serengeti and Shelter, Bar Standard is an Art Deco-themed, modern-day speakeasy. While the name and look may have changed, the club, housed in the former Jonas Bros. Furs building, still brings in some of the area’s best DJs — who spin house and dance music — as well as more high-profile […]
After this spot’s long run as the Atrium Bar & Grill, new owners took it over, cleaned it up and made it into a respectable neighborhood watering hole called the Bar. As the name might imply, it’s a no-frills joint where pretty much anyone is welcome. While the bar on the south side of the […]
