This bar’s name was inspired partly by a fire that gutted the space in 2009, and partly by the fact that it's long and narrow like a matchbox. While the neighborhood has changed a lot since it opened in 2011, the Matchbox has remained a reliable place to score infused shots, cheap (in the best way) drink deals and sometimes rowdy crowds (especially during Taking Back Mondays). Walls decked out with local art, a large smoker-friendly patio and a no-bullshit attitude cement the bar’s place as one of the best spots to catch a buzz in RiNo.
