50 Best Bars near Niwot

“incredible staff, incredible drinks, and incredible music! this is a local gem!!“

“Love everything about this place!“

“I went to check this place out and got their Fire-starter Burger with Sweet Potato Fries. The burger was cooked perfectly! Just the small amount of pink I was looking for. 😋 It had just the right amount of jalapeños and guacamole. Did I mention the burger is fairly decent sized for the price?!?! I have never had Sweet Potato fries this good either, most of the places I have gotten them from they are burnt and hard. The restaurant is casual dining and VERY CLEAN! The staff are friendly and amazing as well as VERY VERSED in Service Dog laws. I felt very safe and welcomed here with the calm atmosphere. I would DEFINITELY go back!!!“

“Great place to be, love the atmosphere the staff has created.“

“Highly recommend !!!! Great place for food, drink and music!!“

“Friendly and helpful staff, Mike thank you for making our first visit loads of fun!“

“We stopped into Nora’s this evening and we’re so so pleased! The atmosphere was wonderful but the highlight was the bartender, Dave! Watching him craft his cocktails was a fun experience!!“

“This place is so awesome! Super dog friendly! Love that they have an off leash dog park on site. Inside is still dog friendly as well if it is too hot out. So glad that they make people show proof of rabies vaccine for the dogs so you know your dog is safe. Recommend registering your dog on their website so you don’t have to scramble to find your rabies vaccine records.
Super excellent selection of craft beers that always is changing. Love the sour beer selection especially.
I have been here dozens of times and will always go back. Their parties for their anniversary and other events are always off the hook and they go crazy with their decorations.
They have always had a food truck when I have been there too.“

“so much fun to have live comedy and music close to home. always a great time!“

“Excellent food. The homemade tots and green chili are to die for. Loved the salmon. Loved the steak salad. They really take care of their customers.“

“Great drinks, great service!“

“We have been here many times for different events and always loved it. The ambience is amazing in a way that’s pretty indescribable. The Comic Sense Comedy Shows are great and in a very cool intimate setting that is one of the many nooks in License 1. The bands are great. The Photo Booth is an added plus. We have had so many great memories there.“

“the people and owners! and it has a nice outdoor smoking area“

“The wings are very tasty and only $9. Good old school neighborhood bar. Pool, darts, foosball, jukebox“

“great food strong drinks awesome people and always a great time“

“Great food and very friendly service. On Pearl Street so a kaleidoscope of people walking by.“

“Saw a awesome show last night “Genesis “ great band and venue to enjoy musical performances 👍💯“

“This place is great! I wandered in here after a show next door @ the Fox & was super excited to see that the old Taco Junky was replaced with a sweet saki bar (plus regular bar) & Korean street food... The drinks were served up quickly by the witty & engaging bartenders & we even got to talk with the owner about hosting events/getting some live music back into the space. He was really funny & welcoming & he actually ended up giving us some shots on the house. Overall it was a really fun place to stumble into on a Friday night & be treated like we belonged... Also, it's probably got the cheapest drinks on the Hill & the pour wasn't weak by any means -- always a plus ;) I hope this place does really well & will definitely be back with more of my crew for more laughs & good vibes. Cheers to you, Scrooge Sul! Welcome to the block!“

“Great local spot! Full bar with great food, large beer and liquor selection with multiple pool tables and bar games. Make sure to go on karaoke nights (Wed, Fri, Sat) because they are always a blast!! Shoutout to the bartenders and support staff who always take care of their guests.“

“We recently expanded our home and entrusted the electrical fit-outs to an exceptional team. Their professionalism and attention to detail were evident throughout the project. Among the highlights were the installation of several skylights equipped with electric shades. These remote-controlled shades not only enhance our home's aesthetic but also offer convenience and energy efficiency. We are thoroughly impressed with the quality of the work and the seamless integration of modern technology into our living space. Highly recommended for anyone needing skilled and reliable electrical services!“

“A fun place to meet friends or family. Food is creative and excellent!“

“Food was amazing! Service was great restaurant was clean“

“Delicious food! Friendly crew. Try the corn ribs. The Peach Bourbon Smash cocktail was mighty fine!“

“Our first time dining at this place though we have wanted to go for a while after someone posted about it after they opened. Finally made it and glad we made reservations as it was packed since it was peak time Friday evening. Spoke with Koji-san, the owner, while we were waiting for our table and he also stopped by each table to check on them which we thought was great. We had the takoyaki, kaisen-mix okonomiyaki and the spicy miso ramen. All came within a reasonable amount of time and were delicious! Koji-san explained the background of offering takoyaki, which was so interesting and great for him to share. We will definitely be back to try the other menu items, esp their sushi, which looked delicious! Great to see a business busy and doing well!“

“Classic underground dive bar. Full of history whether you consider it actual Boulder history or countless legendary college nights out, this place will be sure to add to your night out regardless. Large sprawling single floor layout with plenty of things to keep you entertained. Crowd and vibe vary wildly depending on day/time just like any other bar. Didn't get a chance to try a menu but bar is fairly priced and what you'd expect. Souvenirs/clothes available as well and the staff is nice enough for a rowdy university spot. Check em out with a group on your next happy hour or for a night cap, good spot regardless 🍻“

“Eating from their food truck at the Louisville Street Faire. Flavors AHHHHMAAAAZING!“

“Good fat burgers“

“3’s is advertising exactly the experience you’re going to get. A favorite local dive with bartenders who remember your name and usual customers with stories to share while sipping your drink and catching up on a game. My absolute favorite dive in Longmont and the only bar I frequent. Ashley is an absolute doll and always takes care of me each and every time I come in. You want that small town, dive bar, where everyone knows your name vibe? 3’s is absolutely the place to go.“

“Good service, good hospitality and great food! Always enjoy their smothered burritos. You can’t go wrong with any of their food.“

“Matthew is killing the game behind the bar! first time in Colorado, first time in Boulder, first time at Press Play & I'll definitely be back!“

“We recently hosted a school fundraising event at the Bohemian Biergarten and it was such a great experience! Their back room is a perfect space for a small crowd and has such a cozy vibe and required no extra decorations or anything to make it feel like a special space.

We had about 40 people but it can hold up to 90. They have a small stage where we were able to set up a Photo Booth and our silent auction items. They had a projector screen available, which we didn't need, but also a TV we could hook up a laptop to broadcast our silent auction QR code, or whatever we wanted. They had a mic too which was great for speaking to the crowd. The food was yummy, the drinks were great and we had our own designated bartender with friendly service.

Claire was super responsive and really easy to work with and helped us pull off an amazing evening with VERY little effort. 10/10 would recommend if you need a place to host a group!“

“This place is a total dive and a boulder institution all at the same time. Look, you don't come here for a craft cocktail or for a michelin star, but its late night, you want a beer and a greasy delicious burger this is the place.

Additionally this place is littered with CU boulder tradition and has some of the same friendly and fair staff that has been working there for over 20 years. Check this place out as what I would consider the best boulder bar.“

“Took us ten years of living in CO to find a great steakhouse that matched our favorite steakhouse in OK. I dare say, Steakhouse 316 is even better! It is amazing EVERY time we go. Be sure to get the table side Caesar. And why is black salted butter for the bread so much yummier than all other salt??“

“Conversation friendly; unique farm to table entrees; creative combinations always delicious.“

“The best place for a good cup of coffee in the morning and live music in the evening and Fiona is a rockstar too :).“

“My favorite BBQ in Colorado, and Juicy Bits on tap! yessss“

“One of the best pizzas I’ve ever had💚💜“

“Absolutely one of the treasures of our little town! And worth the drive from neighboring towns as well! Justine and Rusty are fantastic owners and boy, do they know how to put together a solid menu!“

“Me and my husband ate there tonight. It was really good service and super yummy food. The prickly pear lemonade was a lil tart but in a great way. The special drink of the night was a good amount of liquor to beer ratio. The appetizer of chili cheese fries was just yum! That white cheddar cheese sauce if amazing. I got The Ned burger with fries. It was perfectly cook and didn't have too much lettuce or tomato on it. My husband got The Rancher Mac and cheese skillet. It was very cheesey and didn't have too many green onions which was delicious. We couldn't get dessert this time as we were too full but we will be back again soon! 😄“

“Was fortunate enough to have my 30th birthday here at Pedro’s and would definitely recommend and go back there again! All of the staff was incredible and so kind and helpful to make my special day easy and smooth. Nick was incredibly patient answering my million questions to plan the event and Carlos our server was the perfect human for the job. Carlos handled a giant party of 20 people with ease, poise and genuinely thoughtfulness. I couldn’t have asked for a better night and a better team. They have a customer for life. :)“

“The Illegal Pete’s Hill location is always a fun spot, whether you’re grabbing food with friends or stopping by for a quick bite. The staff are super cool as well. The food is great too, and the burritos are a really good portion for the price—they’re filling and packed with flavor. Overall, it’s a great place to hang out, get good food, and enjoy a fun atmosphere and in my opinion is better then Chipotle.“

“We experienced great service and the staff was extremely helpful.
Better than it’s been a long time thanks to Manny and Blanky!!!! They were the best and treated my family like family. We had a great time and the food was good!!
Love love the frozen margaritas❤️ 😃“

“Ray from the Longmont location was amazing!! He took great care of our group of 8. Even while being short staffed the service was still fast and great!! Thank you Ray!!“

“Great beers, food, and staff.“

“Just had my first experience of T!aco. Fresh, consistent quality food. Flavours off the chart, service friendly quick and on point. Very reasonably priced. Great atmosphere and the guy who runs it treats you like a long lost relative. Just perfect. Great night. Well done“

“Good food. I especially like the Asado fundido tacos!“

“Great store. I especially like the Thursday night speakers. Staff is always pleasant and positive.“

“I don’t have a negative thing to say about this restaurant/bar. It has been hands down the best food on our vacation and the servers have been amazing! The chef, Justin, even came out to talk to us and told us about some hidden gems to drive to see! Fantastic experience! When I come back to Boulder this will be my first stop.“

“Great food and wonderful service.“
