50 Best Bars near Manitou Springs

“We LOVED our lunch experience. Great bloody and even better Reuben!“

“Awesome place to hang out!“

“We came for dinner one night while in town. I had the California burrito, she just had the spicy white queso and chips. She really enjoyed the queso, it was very thick. The burrito was good and a large portion. Seemed like a typical tex-mex place, which I could tell from the menu and is ok with me. Friendly and helpful service. We also ordered margaritas. One large and one smaller. They were good, although I didn't feel like I'd had much tequila after finishing the large.“

“We have been twice now and the food and drinks were fabulous each time! Their $10 enchiladas suizas were delicious! The drinks are yummy and the chips and salsa flow freely. The pork rinds came out crackling. Their green chili is delish!“

“Thank you everyone so much for yalls support!!!“

“Found this place because I wanted a place open after the end of my shift at midnight. Such a laid back vibe. great cocktails and extensive list of spirits. The kitchen was closed, but the menu looks intriguing. Definitely recommend. Definitely will return.“

“Saw Unwed Sailor here.
The sound was surprisingly better than most places. So good the headliner mentioned it.

Fair pricing.
Comfortable environment.
I don't drink and I enjoyed the show/ didn't feel weird for being there for a band.

I honestly could have gone by myself and felt fine. My spouse enjoyed it, though. We were glad we made the decision to see the incredible band last minute.

Liked it so much ( maybe my third time in), I decided to start going to the open mic nights ( when I can)“

“The manager Garrett walked me and my friends around the whole restaurant taking photos for us for our Instagram and did a fantastic job… Cassidie our server was also super kind and helpful… THANKS FOR A UNFORGETTABLE NIGHT VIEW HOUSE“

“My favorite place in Colorado Springs! They have amazing flagship beers along with unique, cutting edge taps that will satisfy the soul. Every time I come in from my home three blocks away I'm impressed and trying something new. I love a brewery that challenges itself, challenges its drinkers, and is hugely successful with ridiculously amazing beer! Plus, the staff is exceptional and hospitable always caring for anyone's needs whether it's the beer drinker or the pup that is with. ♥️🐾“

“went there last night for the first time and it definitely didn't disappoint. amazing drinks and delicious food. beautiful patio and attentive staff. Will definitely back and definitely recommend to try it out ♡“

“I would vote six stars if I could!! This is a great find and I highly recommend a stop! The staff was fun and friendly. There is a great vibe here with eclectic decor and beautiful chandeliers. It was giving Adams family. They've got great comfortable furniture in cozy settings to accommodate either a couple on a date night or a group of friends. They have 6 fire pits out front. We got on a wait list for fire pit seating which only took about 10 minutes. They do allow cigar smoking on the patio. They had some super fun and delicious cocktails and a wonderful assorted dessert plate! My photos do not do this justice to the stunning interior. Stop in and see for yourself!!“

“decorated for a corporate Christmas and the staff was amazing. the space was perfect for a holiday Christmas party“

“Met the owner of Fritzy’s which I believe is the food place behind the bar (not sure if they’re connected). Tried the bbq chicken pizza pocket thanks to Nishaun’s recommendation (who also invented them) — SOOOO GOOD AND GREAT PRICE. Get a lot of food! A++

Also, the bartender Ryan is the best. Always recommend this place to anyone who will listen hidden gem!!“

Best Night!“

“Absolutely loved our evening hanging out at Seven’s Gate. Been a long time, fan and visitor of Cerebus across the street, but had never made it over to Seven’s Gate until this evening. They were doing a fundraiser for Manitou Springs pride, and we were met with welcoming, smiles, tasty, beer, and amazing service from Kara. We didn’t get to try any of the food… But that will be a first on the next visit. Highly recommend visiting any time of the week, if you want to stop by for a chill atmosphere and good vibes. Will definitely be back!“

“Supernova and Arcade Bar was a bit of a dark surprise—but in a good way! The vibe was unique and moody, and the Sunday bartender was pretty cool and made solid drinks. Overall, a fun spot to hang out, play some games, and enjoy good cocktails. I’d definitely go back!“

“Great service, great beer & great brats. All around good time. Can't wait to come back!“

“Excellent bar, the kindness and cordiality of its owners is priceless. We had a great time in the company of the hosts, listening to live music, drinking some good beers with bourbon and even talking about politics with them. Very good place with an incredible atmosphere even though it was Sunday. I recommend stopping by if you are visiting COS!!!“

Otis is such a sweetheart and an absolute mastermind behind the bar- he's one of a kind, one in a billion. Nothing but love for this place. 🖤“

“We have been eating here since 2017 and have never had a bad experience. The food always tastes amazing! 10/10 vegan spot!“

(good lol)!Great & attentive bartenders- Bob & Judy! Fun atmosphere! Warm & cozy patio! You never feel like you're in town out on the patio! This fairy tale is real!“

“Went for Valetines day and was very disappointed. We booked with the manager herself and was told if we did not show we would be charged. We arrived and had to wait 90 plus minutes and they cared less. Beware they added a 3% mandatory hospitality fee and a 20% mandatory gratuity. All in all, they persuaded us not to return. 100% focus seemed to be on the business thier profits and minimal to us the patrons. We cued in the waiting area with others who also seemed to be waiting like us for thier over selling.“

“Happ tap is a very welcoming tap room we serve are fully loaded bacon wrapped dogs out of here every other week if we’re available and we love doing so the customers are great the bartenders are wonderful everybody is just so cheerful and happy we absolutely love this place“

“Amazing place to be at and enjoyable atmosphere. Football season super great to come here and watch Packers game.“

“Wonderful experience. Great outdoor seating.

Karen is absolutely amazing! She was our bartender last night and went above and beyond to make sure we had an incredible experience. She's incredibly attentive, always checking in to see if we needed anything, and her knowledge of the drinks menu is impressive. Karen truly listens to what you want and crafts each drink to perfection. Her friendly demeanor and warm smile made us feel right at home. We can't wait to come back and request Karen as our bartender again! 10/10 would recommend!“

“I had the BBQ chicken sandwich. The chicken was fresh, with juicy chunks of chicken breast. I would recommend this place if you're hungry for sandwiches. They have a wide variety of sandwiches on the menu and you can modify any of them. It's themed after marijuana smoking, and it is reflected in the names of the sandwiches and the decorations. So, if you are offended by that, don't go. But, you'll be missing out on some delicious sandwiches. Yum!!“

“Absolutely fantastic. The Veg Out and Guinness Sake pot pies were wonderful. The key lime and Lovely Bunch of Coconuts pies were fantastic. Definitely will be back.“

“Absolutely fantastic food. Great service. Welcoming atmosphere. This is our new spot ❤️ Best food we’ve had in the Springs“

“Hands down the best sushi in Colorado Springs!“

“Shoutout to Brandon L, Parker, and the bartender (she was amazing) for making my visit extra special, they truly made the place feel so welcoming and always check on me! I think I might have just found my new regular spot. The vibes here are awesome, and the sandwiches are absolutely bomb.

The whole team is super friendly and hardworking, which makes the experience even better. 100% recommend Cheba Hut near inquest, I honestly can’t get enough!

Plus, they’ve got a great bar with some really fun drink options. It’s such a cool place to just relax and chill, with an atmosphere that feels both laid-back and unique.“

“A fun place. Bartenders need to be taught how to serve first come. Often stand there several minutes while other people who came after me get served. Take note of who comes and when. Bands are pretty good but some need to be told to do 80% cover and 20% their own - not the other way around. People aren't coming to hear their music, most of the time.“

“My favorite place to enjoy a coffee, create new friendships, and nurture current existing friendships.“
