Not as "festive" this year with the fun ornament drinks and holiday mugs. Only a couple options from broken drink glasses etc. Food and drinks still good but not as fun for holiday as it used to be. Service was ok.

We were a big group with varying requests and needs, and our server was very gracious and helpful. The food is always good and the drinks are always a step above the rest.

Overall we had a decent time here. The aesthetic is cool, and the tiki cocktails are vibrant. Hubs and I have been here many times before, but this most recent visit fell way short of our past experiences at Adrift. We wished we hadn't been seated directly in front of the doors on a cold night...especially with how many people were walking in and out. We made our reservation a couple of weeks in advance, so to see the community table for walk-ins was actually further away in a warmer spot than ours was a little bit disappointing. Or if the bar were available for reservations we would have definitely preferred to sit there than at the chilliest seats in house. In regards to the food, we enjoyed the poké nachos and the volcano fries, but the coconut shrimp tasted more like frying oil than anything else. We also felt we had to eat the warm food uncomfortably quickly because with the cold gusts of air rushing in the dishes cooled down incredibly fast. Service was on point, as always, even on a busy Friday night. Adrift has a great crew! If we return here, we will definitely not be making reservations again..we'd rather risk a walk-in and be seated somewhere comfortable or just go somewhere else tbh.

Some of the best drinks in town, good food and excellent vibes. Make sure to get a reservation on weekend nights!

Adrift is always a great time - Good and drinks are amazing. We ended up being late because we didn't know the giant parade on Broadway was happening. They were so gracious about it and helped us relax. Love this place!

The Halloween pop up is so fun!! The drinks are very strong and delightful. The staff was kind enough to allow me to have a.P. O. G in a spooky tiki glass so that I could be festive and not have a hangover.

My fav bar in Denver! I really appreciate the effort put into Halloween every year. Service is always great and drinks always hit the spot

Great drinks and excellent service! The place can get very busy, especially during Halloween so I would highly recommend making a reservation before arriving. They have a beautiful patio and it is warm enough to be sitting out even during winter overall great vibe for going there with a group of friends.

Great tiki atmosphere. Loved the decorations and vibe. Our server Tess was great. Drinks tasted perfect. Altho, my two drinks were mostly ice so they're gone quickly. The biggest disappointment is the food menu. It's basically just appetizers now. A food truck has a bigger menu. Come here for drinks but plan to go somewhere else for dinner. If you want to know more about the background of tiki, I recommend the book Smuggler's Cove.

My friends and I hadn't been to Adrift in so long & wanted to create some new memories like those of tiki past, especially during Halloween season, when the already dark and colorful ambiance is amplified!
We had a reservation and were seated immediately by the very kind, well-humored, and friendly staff, especially the host whose name I didn't catch, and our server, Will.
Though the prices have understandably risen, they're still reasonable considering the drinks are balanced, creative (many Halloween seasonals!), and a variety to satisfy a range of tastes and different ABVs. The food offerings (we ordered apps and small shareables) were good and of decent portions. We all liked the edamame hummus, spam musubi, cucumber salad, and fries.
That said, Adrift has attentive, fun, and quick service, good food, diverse cocktails, and no rush to hurry through our visit on a busy Friday night.

Always make a reservation I forgot but the wait wasn’t terrible. We got sat outside which was okay it was just alittle cold! Our waiter was super friendly and nice! The music was on point loved! Our drinks were super cute only thing is they were very tart! But I loved the fall taste. Would definitely be back
