50 Best Cocktail Bars near Lakewood

“I have been going to Ballmer Peak on Green Mountain for a while now and have LOVED it, but I went to the second location on Sheridan and Alameda for the first time this evening. They have created a beautiful, warm and inviting space with the same great beverages and excellent staff. I can't recommend a visit enough!“

“Chef Vilma is amazing. The only thing I regret is not going here before. The staff is amazing. They treat you like family. Go here every night they are open if you can. You won't be disappointed.“

“Crossed off my fourth new (to me) restaurant of the year and first in February tonight. Thanks to Lady Nomada in Arvada for such a delish meal! Their specialty taco - fried avocado - was mouth watering. I also had a Baja fish taco and couldn’t help but sneak in a carnitas taco, too. Super cool vibe and friendly staff; I’ll definitely be back again!“

“Great food, great service, one of our favorite sushi places💜💜“

“Thank you so much for the amazing donation of food for the Quarry Fire Evacuation! There is only so much fast-food one can eat and this was such a lovely treat! Your generosity is immense and we thank you for your support.“

“I love Belmar Asia! The strawberry smoothie (boba without the bobas) is very good! I love both their steamed and fried dumplings. The chicken lo mein, the crab cheese wontons, the Vietnamese egg rolls, and the sesame chicken are all really! The restaurant is clean, nicely decorated, but some of the tables wobble a bit. The service can be a bit slow and unattentative at times. Other wise it's a great restaurant!“

“I've been eating at your place ever since you opened. We've been back 3 times after the pandemic and we ate so disappointed in the flavor if your food now. It is nediocre. We won't be back.“

“Great vibe, amazing cocktails, fabulous bartenders (looking at you, Hayden).“

“Great Charcuterie Boards, and an excellent Espresso Martini. Angela Neri, the owner, pays keen attention to detail.“

“Place was fresh would deff go again“

“The Welton Room is a staple of 5 points. The same owners of the Monkey Bar next door. The cocktails are amazing and the food pairs really well with everything they have to offer.

The aesthetic of the the space is so inviting. Good for a celebration or a date night out.“

“Need a date spot where you can talk about books and music you love? How about a quiet, beautiful nook to have a heart to heart with your bestie? You can even bring your whole family and friends to host a baby shower— like I maybe did. 😄 This place is so welcoming and cozy, truly unique for a space in Denver. Named after a cute corner of Brooklyn, Fort Greene bar has the NY charm. Hands down favorite bar in the city. ❤️“

“Best bar. Great drinks. Great staff. All around amazing place.“

“What could've been a hiccup turned into the highlight of our evening. The lounge lost our reservation, so we were seated at the bar, and it worked out even better than a table. Derrick, our bartender, was exceptional—knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive without hovering. Cocktails were beautifully balanced, the food was genuinely tasty, and being side-by-side made sharing and conversation easy. Five stars all around.“

“Rhianna and the rest of the staff are awesome !!!“

“My wife and I had an absolute blast last night. The golf simulator was a lot of fun with a ton of options for play. The pool was free and the drinks were great.“

“The music was perfect for the sunset happening. Cool deep house you may hear at Anjunadeep open air concerts. Highly recommend!“

“OMG, we absolute loved this place. Went in for happy hour. The selection of food and beverage was great, way above most restaurant offerings for both. The Slap Burger, Hot Chicken and Ricotta offerings were top notch and the house wine and sparkling were great. Service was friendly and it was such a fun and relaxing place to spend the evening.

We will be back often. Great to support this neighborhood restaurant and bar.“

“Very Cool bar and good people“

“If you’re looking for a cocktail bar that combines top-notch drinks with a side of charm and hair-envy, Lazy Greyhound is your new favorite spot. The drinks? Absolute magic. Zac, the bartender, has an almost mystical ability to craft cocktails that taste as good as they look. But here’s the twist: while his drinks are top-tier, his hair is next-level. If you’ve ever wondered what would happen if a hair salon and a speakeasy had a beautiful, well-coiffed love child, this is it.“

“Great product. Nice people. My extremely discerning guests have confirmed that the ease of serving this Classic Manhattan has not compromised its quality. I keep this product on hand to welcome unexpected guests and to offer a quality cocktail at impromptu gatherings.“

“Seafood restaurant known for oysters in downtown Denver. We came for a birthday celebration and the oysters were a hit(so much so I didn’t get a photo). I think that was the highlight of our food experience.
For appetizers, we got multiple different types of oysters as well as calamari. I was not a huge fan of the calamari. It was lots of oily breading, but the dipping sauce was good.
For drinks, we tried some wine pairings as well as the happy hour. Would highly recommend coming for happy hour for some cheaper oysters and drinks.
For mains, we had multiple people get the crab stuffed cod, this I was also a fan of the crab was delicious. One person also ordered the scallops and they said they were perfectly cooked.
This place was expensive and I personally didn’t think the main dishes werent worth the price, but the oysters definitely were.“

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

“Held a 70’s themed baby shower here last weekend and it was perfect!! This place is so chic and the staff was amazing. Drinks and food were on point. We had so much fun!“

“High-quality cocktails in a relaxed atmosphere.“

“OMG! What a great experience“

“Amazing cocktail experience! Fun cool local spot. Smoky drink had a great presentation - came in a little lantern!“

“omg, you have to find this place. text ahead to make reservations. the hostesses and our sever Liam were great. Liam recommended the perfect drink for me. just tell him what you're in the mood for, and he'll zero in on a perfect drink. You sure feel like you're in the 20s and doing something you shouldn't be doing when trying to find the place to walking down the dingy halls to the bar itself. Worth it. Great for date night. Note: just do what you're told, have patience, and a have a great time.“

“Had the absolute time of my life at this bar. We have lived a couple blocks down from this bar for a couple months and always thought the bar looked like a blast. We decided to stop in tonight and it felt like home. Everyone was so kind. We had a blast playing pool and singing karaoke and the drinks were cheap and phenomenal. This place is family owned and full of the best vibes. We love stardust!“

“Fantastic dining experience. Worth the trip every time!“

“My favorite coffee shop in Denver. Can't wait to go back!“

“Place was amazing and such a great atmosphere!!“

“Love this venue. Crafted cocktails good sound“

“Kicked me out of a bathroom because of my perceived gender. Which is illegal in CO. Transphobia isn't okay. Make sure your security is up to date with the LAW. Edit: I've since went and spoken with the new manager there and she was so compassionate and empathetic and said the way I was treated is not in line with the principles of Beacon and she's still learning how they operate around there but she's definitely notices somethings about the way it operates there and plans to make changes and that she hopes I'll be able to come back and be comfortable. And I'd love to, Heaven was so sweet and I'll definitely be back and really believe this place can change for the better it is a lovely spot and has a nice atmosphere for the most part.“

“This is one of my favorite places in Denver. Get the Froze - trust me. It will become your go to drink. The beet hummus is delicious. There isn't a great view of the mountains, but the atmosphere is still good. Service can sometimes be a bit slow, even when they are adequately staffed, but it's still a great scene and perfect place to bring out of town guests.“

“We love the Poka Lola! Had our wedding room block at the Maven so we hosted our wedding welcome party the night before at the Poka Lola. Fantastic staff and food selection was great. The bar atmosphere is great, bartenders were super attentive, and the room layout is perfect for casual indoor-outdoor flow for guests. This is one of our favorite spots in Downtown Denver!“

“The bartender Paul is awesome. true Artist“

“Nice atmosphere and great service“

“This is by far my favorite place to go with my gal pals or bring out of town visitors. James the bartender always provides extraordinary customer service and delicious cocktails. The views are great. The vibes are on point. And even though seating can be hard to find, standing is so worth it to experience this rooftop.“

“Best ramen EVER! We stumbled upon Uncle over a decade ago, and since then anytime we’re in CO we come for dinner. The spicy chicken ramen is hands down the best, love all of the bao buns, eggplant is my favorite, but can’t go wrong with crab or pork belly ones either. We’ve never had anything bad, service is always great too! Be sure to make a reservation.“

“The best tiki bar in Denver, best Mai Tai, classic decor, good food, but hey I may be biased.“

“Best food in Denver and the only good late night food in lodo.“
