Ricky and Eli were amazing bartenders, this speakeasy is definitely a hidden gem. Me and my wife had an amazing time and will definitely be back!

Amazing drinks and exceptional service. I make a point to stop by whenever I am in Denver. Joaqin and Josh created some off menu cocktails for us, out of the world!

Second place we stopped for cocktails for the evening, we had ice cream while we waited. The girl behind the ice cream bar was very sweet.
The speakeasy in the back is fun, but it’s a bit loud because the space is so small and is usually pretty busy. They played old movies on the wall, and the cocktails were awesome!

Go here every few weeks and it's the best ice-cream in denver
Service was excellent, and the drinks were good. A bit on the sweet side for me. I think it would be great if they did custom cocktails! Fun little space.

Pretty good spot to chill! I like the hidden way to go in, drinks are fantastic! Mo is the best! Kind person! 👌🏻

Retrograde is hands down one of the coolest spots in town—and probably the only legit speakeasy around. Hidden behind what looks like a regular ice cream parlor, the entrance is as fun as the drinks. You’ll find a metal fridge door, flip the switch, and like magic, someone will come open the door and welcome you into a whole different vibe.
Once inside, it’s cozy, stylish, and full of character. The cocktails? Awesome. Thoughtfully crafted and super tasty. The staff is friendly and laid-back, and Mo, the bartender, really stood out—knowledgeable, personable, and clearly passionate about what he does.
If you’re looking for a unique night out with great drinks and a bit of mystery, Retrograde is the place to be.

Super underground act like your taking your partner for ice cream and surprise them

This place is terrible you wait in line for 40 minutes and then when you get inside, it takes 30 minutes to get a drink. Also Ricky has a terrible attitude as a bartender he should not be working here.
Ricky is so nice and makes an amazing drink
