Went to watch some football Saturday afternoon. When we arrived there were 11 other people there. It appeared there was only a bartender and one waitress. Ordered a cheeseburger with onion rings, took 27 minutes to come out even though nobody else had food. It was cooked wrong with the wrong toppings and came out with no onion rings. Just the burger on the plate, nothing else. You would think the cook would realize something was wrong when there weren't fries or something else on the plate, but apparently not. Even though we were there for about 50 minutes, neither the waitress or bartender checked to see if we needed anything else, no refills, no second beers. Poor food and terrible service. Sorry we even went.

Annie worked very hard on changing out the flags out front! She spent almost 20 min from open trying to unclip the flags to change them out! It was quite the debacle. Will see how the rest of her shift goes lol

I was asked for an id for a non-alcoholic beer. When I questioned why and stated it was alcohol free I was blatantly told that “I was wrong” and “if I was ok because she was not going to deal with it”. Who says that to a customer?? You lost some patrons for sure, hope she is worth it.
If it’s your policy to id everyone, just make that known and check id’s at the door. Don’t escalate an issue that is nothing and blame the customer. Obviously we walked out and won’t be back. Maybe you don’t need loyal customers?
BTW, I visited two other locations after this and was not asked for id for Heineken 0.0 nor was I asked at King Soopers this morning. Interesting…..

Used to be one of our favorite sports bars, however we were treated extremely disrespectfully by a waitress tonight when we attempted to order an NA beer and she scoffed at us because “it does have some alcohol in it”. Thank you for serving as the sobriety checkpoint we never asked for. We kind of tried to just laugh off the awkwardness when she abruptly informed us that she really wasn’t in the mood to deal with attitude tonight. We unfortunately won’t be returning. As a fellow small business owner, I can’t fathom retaining an employee who treats customers this way.
Cool place, hard to find. It's off the beaten path, but it's a cool little basement bar. It's a home bar for Cincy fans, but all seem to be welcome. At least this Niner fan and his Patriots fan son seemed to fit in. Good wings and nachos.

Food was not very good. Wings were dry. We also ordered chicken nachos, not much chicken and they had raw onions all over the nachos. Service was good.
Took me awhile to find the entrance (in an alley) and the bar is in the basement beneath a different restaurant. Great Friday draft special ($2.75, for Big Wave even!) and the Charred Shishitos? Freakin' awsum. Ayden was top notch, too. But wth is a "Living Wage Fee" and why did I get hit with a "To Go Fee" on a "Dine In" order? Jus wundrin'... Cheers!
Great wings and service. Great sports bar all around.

Really fun hidden basement bar with good food and lots of TVs.
Origins is the best sports bar in Denver! The food, drinks, and atmosphere are all great but what really stands out is the people. I have been a regular for a while but when my mom came to visit, we needed seating accommodations due to her mobility issues. I reached out the the owner Kris and he replied the same day and got us set up with a reserved table that fit her needs even though it was a busy day and he did not need to have us there to have a full house. Since then, Kris has greeted me personally each time I have been there. The rest of the staff is also excellent and will remember you if you come regularly. Paige, Annie, Christian, Ayden, and Heather are always super welcoming and kitchen staff manage to put out great quality food with no issues. The regular crowd is also very laidback and welcoming. I cannot say enough good things about the people here. Thank you for a consistently great experience!

Sports book or Origins? Name changed but it's still the same level of mediocrity.Dry burgers. Excellent fries. Great service. And unrelenting solicitors bothering you when you're trying to watch a game and socialize with friends.They allow annoying people promoting sports betting during games who do not leave you alone. I told the promoter I have a betting addiction (a lie, but just to get him to shut up) and they still kept bothering me. That's not ok. People don't go to sports bars to talk to solicitors. Get rid of them and maybe I'll come back if the food isn't overcooked.

Play it…and they will come… LOVED that they had both the women’s basketball and a women’s hockey game already playing! I would definitely come back here to watch women’s sports again. We had a great experience with Ayden taking care of us on a busy night. I can recommend the chicken tenders tossed in sauce with tots on the side.
Ayden was a fantastic server! Wonderful bar to watch women’s sports! Tons of tables and tvs to watch games
Great sports bar to watch women’s sports!! Servers were happy to put on the game at our table. Food and drinks were great too
