The staff are gems and the food is great!
Troy is the BEST
First time in this amazing retro dive bar, with some of the best pork green chili, and killer Kentucky bourbon sauce on my homemade chicken tenders I’ve ever had. Super fun and friendly server also. I’ll be back

The Kentucky Inn is a beloved neighborhood institution that has been serving the community since before World War II. Despite its age, the bar offers surprisingly good food, including the popular bacon meatloaf, the highly praised Bourbon Trail burger, fantastic smoked wings, pork green chili, fried mushrooms, and homemade chicken tenders with Kentucky bourbon sauce. Many consider the fish and chips made with fresh walleye, available every Friday, to be the best in Denver. The atmosphere is fun, comfy, relaxed, and welcoming, making it a perfect spot for spending a Sunday watching football and enjoying a drink. Customers appreciate the vibe, with free darts and inexpensive pool adding to the entertainment options.
While the service can sometimes be slow and laidback, the staff is generally very friendly, attentive, and unpretentious, with quick drink refills even during busy nights. The selection of local beers, including Guinness on tap, is decent, and the kitchen stays open quite late, accommodating late-night diners. Food is made from scratch, down to the salad dressings, and the blue cheese salad is noted for its tangy and rich flavor. The burgers are tasty, and the martinis are a favorite. Overall, the Kentucky Inn provides a reliable, cozy dining and drinking experience for the local neighborhood.
