Stopped into The Velvet Elk and it was just perfect to chase away the dark night without power. Warm, festive and great bartender and martini. Such a nice holiday vibe! 😍

My husband and I had an after dinner party here for about 30 people after our wedding. Service was AMAZING. The food was provided by The Post. We had multiple guests say it was the best wedding food they’ve ever had. The cocktails were amazing, in fact I’m still thinking about that amazing espresso martini and I know our guests are too. I wish I could give this place 100 stars. We live out of state and correspondence planning the event was amazing too. I can’t wait to come back!

One of the best concerts I've been to in a long time!

What a lovely venue! Great vibe, great sound, great drinks. You enter into a long and narrow bar with bar and right and booths on the left. If you March straight through, a set of French doors open into a small, intimate concert space. The stage is low, so us short gals need to get up close to have a prayer of seeing anything. The outside walls have benches and maybe 4 to 6 high top tables with stools.

Great small club. Great window on the Boulder music scene. Two great acts the other night.

The Rebirth Brass band was fantastic, but the sound system at the club was louder than it needed to be, causing some muddiness to the sound quality, and difficult to clearly hear to vocalists. It also made it impossible to speak to the person next to you. It was unpleasantly loud.

Great vibes, good drinks.

Robert Abraham

An enjoyable evening , great crowd and the acoustics were nicely executed.

Nice vibe, small music venue, in the heart Boulder nestled under the Flatirons.
