I had an amazing time! Brian (Bryan?) the bartender was extremely sweet to me and my group! He even started calling my friend by their preferred name after figuring out it was different from their legal one, which is a step most people don't take and was definitely appreciated by all of us. Even though we were here until close, the staff was courteous and professional. Out of all the college bars in this area, this is one I'm not worried about underclassman infiltrating XD
Also, their cocktails were delicious

We had a convention in town and they treated us well. Kitchen stayed open just for us, and they tolerated a “rowdy” bunch.

I'd give 10 stars if I could! I've been in town for a barbershop harmony society conference this week on the campus of DU. Campus rules stated no singing after 10 PM which is a travesty for barbershoppers but The Pioneer stepped up and committed to staying open until 2 AM every night that we were in town so that we would have a place to gather and sing together. The drinks were great and the food was amazing (definitely recommend the nachos). And even when they were completely packed with people they were able to make drinks quickly and accurately. An all around great atmosphere and a wonderful business to go out of their way to accommodate us.

Busy! Great management and nice folks. We had a beer and a carnita quesadilla. It was quite good. You can even carve your name on the bar top. We'll, I'm not sure, but it was pretty carved up. Unfortunately, I didn't bring my carving tool. But we'll be back soon (ominous scratching going on....). ?

We had some really good Mexican food there last weekend! I'm not joking ... It feels like you are walking into a fun college bar, and you are. I was there early afternoon on a 100 degree Saturday so it was quiet but you could tell the upstairs deck and main floor outdoor space would be a blast. I just never expected food to be that yummy! I'll be back

I love this place, I’ve lived in the neighbor for the past two years and this is my go to place. The roof top patio is awesome on a nice day/night. The bartenders and food are always amazing as well. Definitely worth checking out.

Had to walk up to bar to get service.
Wine pour was very poor. Not at a wine tasting, at a bar!
Mix drink expensive and served in small glass, meaning less alcohol for more money.
Probably more of a younger folk hang out.

Went in for the taco Tuesday special $10 and a Guinness $6.50, as listed on their website. I was charged $24.20 for whatever reason. Perhaps the website is out of date but it seems sleezy. Won't be coming back

Great place to watch sports

We wanted to find a new place to watch the AVS game last Sunday. Went in. And sat.........no service. Had to flag someone down. He came back 5 min later and just gave us a menu. We just wanted a drink first. Had to wait 10 more min. Had to flag the guy AGAIN. Got a drink and ordered. Our food sat on the counter for over 5 min so he could go outside and welcome his buddies. So much for finding a new place to watch a game. We will go to our favorite place ( bout time). And we're great tippers!! First time I never left a tip. So you guys suck?
