50 Best Cocktail Bars near Centennial

“They have live music and good food“

“First time visitors to this fine establishment, but it won’t be our last. We had two cocktails, a Churchill’s Breakfast and a Maximillian, both beautifully crafted and presented and absolutely delicious, even at 3:00 on a Thursday afternoon. We followed up with a pour of Le Meilleur and were deeply impressed. We were well taken care of my Taylor, and we left with two bottles of the Churchill’s Breakfast and one of their La Meilleur. This is our new go-to Colorado spirit!“

“I love this place. Amazing, friendly, + attentive staff, delicious tacos, yummy drinks. The atmosphere is usually a 5/5, but this summer, there have been A/C issues and they have been using a mobile swamp cooler. It's great on milder days (temps < 90). But with temps consistently in the 90s-100s this summer, the swamp cooler has struggled to keep things comfortable. Hoping the owner invests in repairing the HVAC soon.“

“Great food, waitress was super nice. Thanks Grace“

“This is one of the BEST Italian restaurants in the Denver area with great atmosphere! The servers and food were the best. Veal piccata and bread yummy Just disappointed that the Hostess was not welcoming (maybe having a bad day, which is understandable-it just brought us down)“

“The" Hot Chick" Sandwich Is FIRE!!!!!“

“Super good food, amazing waitress and an awesome atmosphere. Highly recommend this place.“

“My DU student and I recommend everything! The food is amazing (I recommend the eggplant Ragu), the price is right, and the family that owns and works are lovely and want everyone to be happy and to enjoy their food. It’s amazing!“

“Love this place!! So fun a laid back!“

“Bartenders are more commonly known for their mixology here, and it’s easy to see why. This isn’t your typical bar—it’s a place where grown folks come to enjoy expertly crafted cocktails made the way they’re meant to be. Every drink had its own special touch, and you can tell the bartenders take pride in their craft.

The atmosphere is perfect for a date, with a relaxed setting that’s quiet enough for conversation. The personal attention and attentive service make the experience feel even more welcoming. If you’re looking for quality cocktails over a loud party scene, this is definitely a place worth visiting.“

“Wonderful experience! Great drinks and service. Yes, it may seem a bit pricey at first glance but this is a case of getting what you pay for. Probably the best martinis I've had in years. And I loved the variety if options and flavors.“

“The best tiki bar in Denver, best Mai Tai, classic decor, good food, but hey I may be biased.“

“Best ramen EVER! We stumbled upon Uncle over a decade ago, and since then anytime we’re in CO we come for dinner. The spicy chicken ramen is hands down the best, love all of the bao buns, eggplant is my favorite, but can’t go wrong with crab or pork belly ones either. We’ve never had anything bad, service is always great too! Be sure to make a reservation.“

“I love this place, it’s dog friendly inside, drinks are amazing, and I have not met anyone in here that wasn’t friendly and fun to be around. The live music is always incredible on Friday and Saturdays too. Highly recommend!“

“Ryan and I met up with a few of our friends here tonight FINALLY. I had been wanting to come and try this place for a long time. And it did not disappoint.
The drinks were beautiful and delicious in every way.
Fun pretty themed cocktails and right now it is all set up for spooky season. What I was even more impressed with was the amazing people working behind the bar. They really took care of all of the people there and definitely have a close community that they care about as we watched some of the interactions happening around us. A lot of heart and soul into this special spot on Broadway. I can't wait to come back again soon with Ryan and our friends!
Sometimes I get real anxious at bars and I get nervous to even order. But it was the opposite here. We were welcomed with open arms and treated with so much kindness. Special shout out to Sam, Elaina, Paul!“

“we had a large group and Colby ( hope that's how you spell it) took care of us!! they were so accommodating and friendly!! highly recommend!!“

“Came into town just for the tour. Michael led us through and did a fantastic job. I love hearing the back story. Stranahan's is one of the Originals. American single malt is where it's at. The whiskey is S-tier. Plus you get a cool shot glass/cup with each bottle as an homage to the cowboy days. If you get the time and have an opportunity do not hesitate to make the trip. I did. Came from Chicago on my way back home to Texas. Walked away with a new appreciation for this company.“

“Took my wife this evening for her birthday. Our server was Hope, she and all the staff were incredible and worth 10 Stars!!! My wife enjoyed the chicken dinner with steak fries and a salad. it ordered their street food hotdogs, steak fries and a salad. it was actually an incredible sausage appetizer and both meals were huge portions! we started with the Mahi Chichirrones and they were spectacular as was the tartar sauce and the sauces for the chicken. We also ordered the passion fruit drink and the traditional seasoned Peruvian drink with chunks of mango in it. neither were alcoholic and so refreshing! They wanted to play a drum and sing happy birthday with was great as was our Churro which was like no Churro we've ever tasted and as I told Hope, our server we would come there just for the Churro's they were that good! We cannot wait to come back and introduce our friends to this amazing Peruvian Restaurant! Thank you all for a most enjoyable experience“

“I love this bar! Every time I come in here Marcus always remembers me! He is amazing!! Also shout out to Tony he makes everything better! The vibe is incredible!!“

“omg, you have to find this place. text ahead to make reservations. the hostesses and our sever Liam were great. Liam recommended the perfect drink for me. just tell him what you're in the mood for, and he'll zero in on a perfect drink. You sure feel like you're in the 20s and doing something you shouldn't be doing when trying to find the place to walking down the dingy halls to the bar itself. Worth it. Great for date night. Note: just do what you're told, have patience, and a have a great time.“

“This is one of my favorite places in Denver. Get the Froze - trust me. It will become your go to drink. The beet hummus is delicious. There isn't a great view of the mountains, but the atmosphere is still good. Service can sometimes be a bit slow, even when they are adequately staffed, but it's still a great scene and perfect place to bring out of town guests.“

“Bar Amorina in Cherry Creek is a total gem! I came in for happy hour with a client and we loved every minute.

Highly recommend!“

“My friend had her wedding reception here and it was the perfect spot!! The food was delicious, the drinks were reasonably priced (always a nice surprise for a wedding!), and the variety of food and drinks meant there was something for everyone.

They have a cute patio area situated perfectly to watch the sunset and everyone working was SO NICE AND THOUGHTFUL. If I could give 10 stars across the board, I would! Thanks to everyone at Neon Cowboy for a fun night I’m still thinking about weeks after the reception. 😊“

“This restaurant is a true celebration of world flavors. The momo dumplings were tender, juicy, and packed with savory goodness. The butter chicken was rich, creamy, and perfectly spiced. The Thai green curry was a standout—aromatic, comforting, and full of fresh herbs and coconut flavor. Each dish honored its roots while coming together in a beautifully curated menu. The staff was warm and attentive, and the cozy ambiance made the whole experience even better. Highly recommend for anyone who loves bold, authentic flavors and heartfelt hospitality!“

“My first time at this barbershop and they made me birthday margaritas while I got a Mohawk mullet. 🥹💇‍♂️ 37 is probably the best birthday yet. 🥰 Front staff Ashley (Thank you for getting me in last minute on my bday) and Bartender Nikki, (Margs were *chefs kiss*)And shout out to my dude Carlos for this new sick cut. HIGHLY RECOMMEND COMING HERE FOR YOUR NEXT CUT.“

“Love this historic spot... and, one of my favorite burgers in Denver. great for sports especially DU hockey and they have ca solid menu. Check it out!“

“Amazing Lunch Experience at Peckish! I stopped by Peckish for lunch, and it was a fantastic experience! The spinach artichoke dip was creamy and flavorful—definitely a must-try. I also had the traditional wings with sweet chili lime sauce, which had the perfect balance of sweet and tangy. To top it off, the buffalo chicken pizza was incredible! It was drizzled with just the right amount of buffalo sauce and house-made ranch, giving it that perfect blend of heat and cool. The service was great, and the atmosphere was cozy. Can’t wait to come back!“
