We recently had our wedding reception here, and couldn’t be happier with the experience. If you are looking for a quiet date night, a night out with a few friends, or even want to host an initmate event, this is the place for you. Our absolute favorite bar in Denver, hands down.“

“Love this place!! So fun a laid back!“

“The highlight of this café is without a doubt the barista, Matt — friendly, attentive, and clearly passionate about the craft. The rose cardamom oat milk latte he made was not only delicious but also felt truly one-of-a-kind. The stylish, cozy atmosphere adds to the charm, but it’s the exceptional service that makes the experience stand out. I’d come back here specifically for the barista.“

“Rocker Spirits was a fantastic find. The staff is incredibly friendly and very knowledgeable about their spirits, which made the experience even better. I also had the chance to meet the owner, who took time to share both the story of the place and his own journey—something you don’t get everywhere.

The cocktails were excellent, and they also have a great selection of bottles available for purchase. If you appreciate quality spirits, good conversation, and a welcoming atmosphere, Rocker Spirits is well worth a visit.“

“Took my wife this evening for her birthday. Our server was Hope, she and all the staff were incredible and worth 10 Stars!!! My wife enjoyed the chicken dinner with steak fries and a salad. it ordered their street food hotdogs, steak fries and a salad. it was actually an incredible sausage appetizer and both meals were huge portions! we started with the Mahi Chichirrones and they were spectacular as was the tartar sauce and the sauces for the chicken. We also ordered the passion fruit drink and the traditional seasoned Peruvian drink with chunks of mango in it. neither were alcoholic and so refreshing! They wanted to play a drum and sing happy birthday with was great as was our Churro which was like no Churro we've ever tasted and as I told Hope, our server we would come there just for the Churro's they were that good! We cannot wait to come back and introduce our friends to this amazing Peruvian Restaurant! Thank you all for a most enjoyable experience“

“This bar is the bar for people who value hospitality and delicious beverages.
Yes, it is a bit more expensive than your average dive bar- but what you are paying for is immaculate service, hospitality and people who truly care- all backed with premium products, a solid backbar and whisky selection, and delivery that is like nothing else in the area.
If you are looking for a cheap drink, probably not your place, but... if you are looking to be greeted warmly, served a delicious beverage with a genuine smile and left wondering if they were just serving you, or if you are a part of their family- this is the bar to go to.“

“I first come here recommended, and frequent now. The old fashions are amazing. Love the wine list. On occasion, i will have the bartenders make me whatever they want, and its always amazing!

“Make it a great night at the alley Love this little bar tucked in behind the post office in the heart of downtown Littleton off main street. They have open mic night on Tuesday night where any up and coming artist can come and play or sing come early and pull a number from the host Tony always a great time and the bar tenders are wonderful and easy on the eyes too. They also offer a food truck out back their close to the light rail consider this as the parking kinda sucks.“

“Food was great, Service was great, but trying to get around and park was a total mess. Don't like the location. Castle Rock folks can have it to themselves.

Parking: The area it is located in is just a mess for traffic and getting around. The circle drives cause a lot of issues.“

“Peckish is the best place to come for good vibes, amazing food, and even better people. The bartenders are all spectacular and make drinks to perfection. The pizza and wings are 10/10 with the pizza being cooked better than anywhere else I’ve been and the wings being crispy, juicy, and delectable. The meatball sliders are a personal favorite and definitely a must order! This place is a MUST visit, you will be so happy you stopped in!“

“🎉Happy Cinco de Mayo 🇲🇽🇲🇽😋😋“

“We have been coming here for almost 5 years and we can’t rave more about the food and service! The staff is always attentive, kind and friendly. We had an uncomfortable situation recently. we have two kids under 4. We recently were there when a guy was very vocal about being frustrated that a family was at a bar. Tara immediately jumped in to educate him that yes it’s a bar but also a family restaurant. They are always accommodating and make us feel comfortable. This place has amazing service, food, staff and is a staple in our neighborhood.“

“Snooze is a fantastic place for breakfast. Normally there is a bit of a wait because it is very popular restaurant but today we were able to get in pretty quickly. Our waiter, Omar, was fantastic, he did a great job of ensuring that we were happy with our food and went above and beyond to ensure that our experience here was great. Probably some of the best service I have ever had“

“was in town from Minneapolis. heard about the delorean. highly recommended. great staff. great drinks.“

“We had an amazing experience at The Bacon Social! Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious. The avocado toast was fresh and flavorful, the omelet was perfectly cooked, and the chicken and waffles were the perfect balance of crispy and sweet. The bacon and chocolate chip pancakes were a standout — fluffy, indulgent, and packed with flavor.
We also tried the flight of bacon, which was such a fun and unique experience. Each variety had its own distinct taste, and it’s a must-order if you’re visiting!
The service was very good — friendly, attentive, and efficient even though the restaurant was busy. The place was clean, well-kept, and had a great atmosphere.
Highly recommend for brunch lovers, especially if you’re a bacon fan. We’ll definitely be back! 🥓“

“Patrick (the host) was amazing! Very much appreciated his kindness and great service. I will definitely come here again on my next trip to/through Denver. Kassandra was a wonderful and attentive server!“

“This is one of our favorite restaurants in Colorado. Everything on their menu is amazing but the carnitas tacos are my favorite. Awesome green chili, excellent queso, and the churro ice cream, OMG!

Really though, this review is about one of our favorite people in our lives, Shauna. Shauna is more than just a great server/bartender. Her radiant energy brightens even the most gloomy days. She always makes sure we leave with full bellies and smiling faces. This restaurant would not be the same without her.“

“Everything you'll ever need in one place. designer apparel, bags shoes and cosmetic. after along day if shopping unwind in on the 3d floor of Nordstrom Cafe over a salad wine or drinks of your choice. great atmosphere amust try would be at the Nordstrom Cafe coffee bar it's a great place to sit , people watch while sipping on your favorite 😉latte“

“The" Hot Chick" Sandwich Is FIRE!!!!!“

“Best restaurant & service all trip. Friday night, margs delicious, music fun & food was so good... not sure why it wasn't more crowded. Sasha P was an excellent waitress. Hope to sit in her section next time. We'll be back!“

“Great food, waitress was super nice. Thanks Grace“

“This is one of the BEST Italian restaurants in the Denver area with great atmosphere! The servers and food were the best. Veal piccata and bread yummy Just disappointed that the Hostess was not welcoming (maybe having a bad day, which is understandable-it just brought us down)“

“We dined at Saverina on Valentines Day 2026 and had a wonderful dinner with great service. The dinner was prix fixe, with a menu that completely satisfied my wide palate but not quite that of my wife. However, we worked that out to everyone's satisfaction and thoroughly enjoyed our dinner. I knocked down my rating on ambience because the temperature in the space was too cool, particularly where we were seated by the window and under an HVAC vent. Otherwise, we will likely revisit soon.“

“I always feel like I'm back in Miami when I eat here. Everything is perfect.“

“With our Son, daughter-in-law and two grandchildren, My wife & I enjoyed a great meal. The ambiance and service were outstanding.“

“Snooze, an A.M. Eatery consistently delivers an excellent breakfast and brunch experience. The menu is creative, diverse, and thoughtfully put together, with plenty of options whether you’re in the mood for something sweet, savory, indulgent, or lighter. Everything we ordered was fresh, full of flavor, and beautifully presented. The portions are generous, and the quality of ingredients really stands out.

The atmosphere is fun, energetic, and welcoming, which makes it a great place to meet friends, enjoy a weekend brunch, or even grab a weekday breakfast. The restaurant is always clean and well run, and even when it’s busy, the flow feels organized rather than chaotic.

The service is another strong point. The staff is friendly, attentive, and efficient, and they do a great job making sure you’re taken care of without feeling rushed. Yes, there’s often a wait, but the experience consistently makes it worth it. Snooze is a dependable go-to for great food, great service, and an overall enjoyable dining experience.“

“This is our third visit to Lucy before a Chad Daniels show and we have never been disappointed! We’ve had something different each time and it has all been amazing!!! The service is always fantastic as well!“
