6 Best Bars in The Colony

“Always attracts a crowd, especially on weekends. Not a bad thing unless they run out of chairs! Definitely a great place to grab a drink, especially with big groups. The Cactus Cafe food truck is the best by far.Wheelchair accessibility: The path into Truckyard is paved, but most of the ground past that is gravel.“

“I'm a sour girl and this place hit the spot! They had plenty of options I ended up with the mango sour which came with a tajin rim and I loved that. Everyone said try the pickle michelada, but I kind of forgot, so definitely going back for that. The brewery opens up to the truck yard which has plenty of outdoor seating, live music, actual food truck options and fire pits for when it's cooler out. Definitely great place to hang out for the day/evening.“

“This was our first visit to this location, but we are regular guests of the Denton location. We came specifically for the sweet pig, angrier bird that is no longer on Dentons menu. It was totally worth the trip! This location feels bigger, brighter, and for us, now has the more appealing menu. We were there about 3p today on a Saturday. It wasn’t too busy, and we were seated in a booth in the bar section. Our server was led a bartender. My partner ordered a beer flight to start. The pours were rather large for a flight so off to a great start! While they were initially out of his top choice for tasting, the bartender both brought him a substitute but also found another keg in the back so made up for it in two ways.We decided on the fried oyster mushrooms that aer served with a truffle mustard aioli for an appetizer. If this sounds good, it’s because it is spectacular! The breading was not too heavy, it’s not the corn meal grained kind of breading, it’s more like a light onion ring breading. And the aioli mustard complimented the mushrooms well. The portion was huge! To the point we had enough to bring home for another snack!I ordered the pork tenderloin, which I’ve had before, and have a hard time ordering anything else now because it’s just so good. You get about 7 pieces of thick cut pork rubbed in coffee(?) but it’s not overpowering. The flavors compliment each other nicely and the pork is tender. I don’t eat a lot of pork anymore, but this dish is worth it. The pork is served on top of street corn and has a few fried onions on top. I literally ate every bite. It could’ve easily been two meals, but it just tastes so good, I couldn’t put my fork down.My partner ordered the dish he’s been waiting for four years to eat again lol sweet pig, angrier bird. It’s served on a wooden cutting board as two fried quails and a half rack of ribs. The sweet and spicy compliment each other nicely. He brought half of it home , and still left full. When I asked him how he would describe the meal, his exact words were “freakin awesome” - followed by at least 5 more minutes of words to convince you that this is the only dish you should order.Our server was attentive, the food was wonderful, the atmosphere was pleasant, and we loved the 90s music they were playing. We will definitely be back to try something new and stick with old favorites! Thank you for a wonderful experience on a hot saturday afternoon.“

“6 of us all ordered steakFlat irons & filets… absolutely superb!Perfectly cooked , excellent sidesWe were all impressedO’Shane served us & was terrific!We’re from out of town but when we’re back in the area will come back for this.Excellent“

“This was like buried treasure for St. Patrick’s day weekend. I couldn’t find any specials or information online while we were en route but went anyways. It’s was crowded but not too bad. They have standing areas with a ledge and after about 45 min we got seats at the bar.We got the Reuben and it was good and the fries were perfect and crunchy.“

“BBQ, ambiance, and craft cocktails are great! 4 stars because the Mac and cheese wasn't up to par like a BBQ place should be and service was inconsistent. Creativity, presentation and quality of the food is better than a lot of other places.“
