Reynard Social
On the 6th floor of the luxurious Thompson Denver sits a charming bar with the city, mountains, and stadium all visible from the wrap-around windows. The cocktail list is just as inviting, with fun, innovative drinks that always feature fresh fruits and curious liquors.

The Arvada Tavern
This beloved speakeasy is only accessible through an old-fashioned phone booth, but once inside guests can expect timeless cocktails in a classy drinking den. The Arvada Tavern is a consistent taste of a simpler time, and bizarrely, Tuesdays are tiki-themed.

Fuel & Iron
Fuel & Iron is as Colorado as it gets, and the locals aren’t complaining. Tasty beers from the Copper Kettle Brewing Company, delicious sloppy sliders, and a rustic yet modern feel are the essence of Pueblo.

Fort Greene
The quirky drinks and quaint patio are enough of a draw, but the real attractions are Fort Greene’s frequent events. Live DJ sets, art shows, pop-up food markets and vendors, themed parties, and even yoga classes make every visit a pleasant surprise.

The Family Jones Spirit House
The winner of Eater’s 2018 Denver Bar of the Year and undoubtedly one of the best bars in Denver, this gorgeous distillery is known for its incredible infused liquors and curious cocktails. The bites are a cut above as well, like the curried red-lentil dip with lavash crackers, coconut-sunflower seed crumble, or a smoked chicken salad with pineapple-rum vinaigrette.

Lady Jane
The postcard-perfect ambience of Lady Jane is straight out of 1960’s Palm Springs, with gorgeous furnishings and plenty of natural light to go around. The drinks are just as striking, combining seasonal ingredients in unique ways, like the popular Water Under the Bridge, flavored with snap peas and mint beneath a float of Prosecco.

The Crypt
The crypt is certainly a unique one, as it’s Denver’s resident goth dive bar/vegan eatery. If this combination sounds appealing, you’ll be sure to love the cheap cans and bottles, vegan poutine and delectable eggplant Reubens.

Williams & Graham
This acclaimed cocktail bar sits behind a bookcase on LoHi corner, where bespoke cocktails are served from a grand wooden bar to large comfortable booths. The small plates like the fried sunchokes with truffle aioli and roasted bone marrow with bacon jam round out the already delightful experience.
