This place is mediocre and isn’t too friendly towards people especially women. The man at the door jumped tough with me (a woman) and then decided to play victim once he saw I wasn’t going to let him punk me. He didn’t want me to check on my friends outside the bar, mind you it’s a group of black women. They aren’t even loud or rude and didn’t cause any problems. When I got inside my buddies from a previous bar called me over, we exchanged a few words and giggles beforehand , so I wasn’t in a bad mood . He decided to get rude even after I communicated to him that I was just seeing if my group had decided to take off so I could alert my buddy that we needed to go after them or not. I never completely left the bar , I just poked my head out, not even letting anyone in and when someone from the group came into view I let them know I was just checking in on them and he begins to try to kick me out of the bar . The man invaded my personal space so I shoved him and he keeps blocking my way in creating a scene like I’m doing something wrong. This is before I was able to get a drink myself. I’m a nice tipper and I’m kind to everyone I come across. There’s many servers and bartenders of every race that know me in the area. The attitude seemed personal, and this isn’t the first time I came here and got off vibes, but I thought maybe the first time there was a bad day . This is only my 2nd visit and I won’t be back. Honestly I don’t encourage any black/brown people or women to spend their dollar there. Not if they’re going to pick fights and threaten to call the police just because a white man cried wolf. Mind you right after that I found a woman too drunk to stand a couple minutes after that and had to ensure that she got to safety and I didn’t know her from a can of paint. That could’ve been someone from my group. There’s a restaurant/bar down the street that cares about their patrons and they are never rude no matter your gender, race, or sexuality. Even the security at the door has basic decency. Everyone deserves to be treated with respect. And to the white patron that had no idea what was going on but automatically assumed I was in the wrong because a white man was making it seem like I did something wrong you’re just as bad. I’ve heard the stories but I didn’t think I’d find out for myself. It sucks when you finally decide to explore the town you’ve been living in for over a year and get met with this kind of b.s.

Slightly sad I got an old fashioned in a plastic cup while everyone else in bar had real glass.
Nice laid-back atmosphere. Good tap selection and some Central Waters beer in bottles.

It was disappointing to see that there was a bug inside the rail gin. The atmosphere of the pub was pretty clean. The restroom was pretty clean as well.

Bentley's is a great spot in the CU area to have a good time. The bartenders are friendly and the drinks are delicious.
