Best bar food menu, I literally want to eat everything on their menu! The cheese curds and Mac n cheese are top notch. This is my go to spot in Boulder. Sometimes I consider driving up from Denver just for a fix. I'm usually here post hike in the afternoon, it's quiet with reliable service. The food is typically lightning fast and fresh! My waistline is thankful this spot isn't closer to me :) read more

I've never received worse service at a bar in the last 6 years of drinking in boulder. I stood for at least 30 minites politely waiting for a drink. While I watched people around me order drinks all night the bar tender seemed to intentionally ignore me. I'm more than anything bummed to know that one of the last fun bars on pearl now sucks. read more

They wouldn't let's us come in because a friend from Rwanda had an expired ID from a week ago. When it's impossible to get it renewed because the consulate is closed because of Covid. If a dispensary can accept it, than you can too. It's one thing to not serve someone a drink, it's another thing to be mean about it. I will never come back here. You are what is wrong with America. read more

Great night ruined by aggressive and violent staff. Friday fish fry was great and service from waitress was friendly and timely. We were happy to find a place in Boulder that felt like home in WI. There was a private event in the back but we wanted to play a game after our meal. Our waitress said the event was over and we could go back there. A few minutes later someone from the group asked us to be quiet for 5 minutes while they played a retirement video for a service member. Their event was running over. No problem, we won't renew our game and will be on our way shortly. A few seconds later some dude comes out from the back, tells us "to turn the f'ing game off or he's going to unplug it." Doesn't let us respond and shoves the game from the wall as we're seated around it. Wow, thanks for ruining one of the the first night out with my wife after having our baby. Very respectful of your customers. read more

Took a friend here last weekend in thanks for helping me with my car in the sweltering heat. This place is on the 2nd story of an office building on the west side of Walnut in town - it doesn't take much imagination to figure out where they got their name from. Definitely NOT handicap-accessible (it's stairs all the way up). The space looks about 50% foosball/pool table area, with 2 really comfy leather couches nearby and I think a jukebox?...25% bar area, and 25% dining area, I think there were about 10-12 tables. We were there on a Saturday night around 8, and the 1 server who was there was either unmotivated or somewhat "baked"...just pretty slow, languid moving. Friendly, but noncommittal. The place was largely empty when we walked in, but by the time we left, the bar was fully loaded up, so there must be something about this place. For me, the only outstanding reason to come here is this: their burgers (and I'm guessing sammies) are world-class and amazing. About $8-9 a pop, but you get a massive feast for your devouring pleasure. You can even get a choice of sweet potato fries, along with the other choices of salad, baked potato or standard fries! Skinny, but tasty. They were out of 2 out of 6 beers on the menu when we arrived, and the 3rd I asked about they didn't even carry anymore (doh), but they did have something else called Tetley beer -- when I think of Tetley I normally think of tea -- this stuff is probably one of the smoothest liquids I have ever drank. There's little...I don't know what the right word is. Bite? to it...my friend immediately ordered a pint up. I ended up getting the 90shilling. The main page of their website is very colorful -- but that's all you get is the 1 page; and shows what their dinner specials are every night, as well as game day saturday and sunday specials, and happy hour specials from 3-6pm. I took a few pics of the dining/bar area and will post them not too far away. Summary: Great food, but meh service -- but popular amongst the locals, I guess. Maybe the bartender kicks ass. read more

Got to go. $8 is the saddest excuse for such a small portion of cheese curds. I could have gotten an entire meal somewhere for the cost of about 12 fried cheese curds. They do taste good, but that price (with tax amounting to $10 for a pick up) is RIDICULOUS. Don't know if I will come back. I usually like their $5 burger Mondays, but this really turns me off. read more

I went here because I heard that they play Wisconsin Badger and Packer games! (Originally from the cheese land myself). I learned that the owners are from Wisconsin which is why they broadcast these games. I was happily surprised with my bill because it was a Friday night and the beers we got were only $5 or $3.50 when I was expecting them to be from $6-8. read more

The perfect sports bar, game bar, trivia bar, and place to eat. It's an all around top pick for any occasion. I really enjoyed the atmosphere and being there. read more

With very comfortable bar, dining, lounge, and game areas, the Attic offers delicious bistro food options, a warm and friendly staff, and picturesque views of the Flatirons, making it my choice for the best bar in Boulder. They have plenty of TVs and sports packages to suit everyone's interests, but thankfully the sound is always on during Packer games. Pool tables, darts, pinball, and arcade games are always available, and their diverse entertainment schedule offers opportunities for artists, musicians, and fans alike. Thanks for the cheese curds; whether it's Packer season or not, I'll be back to the Attic Bar and Bistro very soon! read more

We stopped in for taco tuesday and were not disappointed! Delicious, affordable and fun.

this place is the real deal, you guys. As a Wisconsin girl, this place could not be more perfect. cheese curds, Mac n cheese, broccoli and cheese soup, and BEER are not only listed on the menu, but are Wisconsin-grade delicious as well. I also had a chicken tender wrap (so Midwest) and my fiancé had the Bucky burger. so yum. On top of the food, the bartenders and servers were every bit as friendly and welcoming as I would expect. Our server was even the tall, blond Scandinavian type they grow up in the tundra of Wisconsin. They even moved the tv's around for us so we could get a better view of the game on one of the 5 or so big screens. If you're not interested in fireball shots or chanting GPG in the middle of your Sunday afternoon, you're in the wrong place. If you're looking for a good time with some Midwestern folk, this is your time to shine. read more

We just moved to Boulder and are missing the nightlife of Seattle. We stumbled across the Attic after walking around forever on Pearl. The staff was super nice and the food was pretty yummy too. The atmosphere is a cross between a typical tavern (pool tables, games, etc) and a modern loft. The high ceilings and huge windows gave a really nice feel and it was nice to see art on the walls. read more

Stopped for quick drinks on a friday night. Cool spot on pearl. Good priced drinks with a super friendly bartender. It was fairly busy but we were still able to get a spot by the window and people watch. read more

Best bar in town. Really nice atmosphere. Great open mic night! Always greeted with a smile. Love the Wisconsin decor. I will definitely be back! read more

This spot is an awesome place where many college students and youngish locals hang--if they don't go to "Slumdowners" or "Catadumps" (aka, Sundowners and Catacombs). The Attic has got plenty of foosball and two FREE pool tables for those who enjoy boozy competition at unbeatably low prices. They also serve the best damn grilled cheese sandwiches in the world, along with other greasy yum yum hangover prevention plates until 1 AM. The staff is friendly and attractive, and at least one of the owners is usually there with a big smile and a generous pouring hand. read more

Love it here! Great staff, reasonable prices and a gem in the center of Boulder. Glad that it has not been taken over like a lot of the "genuine" places in Boulder. Definitely worth a visit. read more

We went for a short, casual lunch with someone from my office. I had the chicken caesar salad and my lunch partner had the fish and chips. Both are amazing! read more

Absolutely loved the atmosphere and the food and the people!!! THIS is what keeps Boulder cool!!!

I can't possibly say enough great things about The Attic - it is simply my single all time favorite restaurant. From the excellent food (shockingly fresh and everything made in house) to the welcoming and friendly service from Andy and crew The Attic knows how to be a great pub/restaurant. It's also a place with a split personality offering fantastic bar fare for lunch (truly the best burgers, wraps, sandwiches and salads for lunch in Boulder) then offering a loud, vibrant bar atmosphere at night. Did I mention how great the food is? The Attic has a very varied menu and will easily customize any dish any way you'd like it (try the Chipotle Chicken sandwich as a wrap, it's fantastic). If you're in the area and hungry do yourself a favor and drop in. Oh and Monday is $5 burger day (normally $9-10). read more

The name attracted me to this place..Andy is the man here..the place is almost perfect for a nice conversation and a few drinks with a friend or stranger..There are 2 pool tables too..My favorite brew was here..would definitely recommend this place..specially when it's cold outside.. read more

Very friendly Bartenders, love the Garcia painting, good pours.

I'm a fan of this place. Good fare, good service. And they've proven that when they mess up, they own up and make up for it. I'm pretty loyal now. Been there a few times, and I'll keep going back. read more

in my three night stay in Boulder this was the best bar I went to. Nice atmosphere, good food and drinks and friendly staff. Reasonably priced too which helps. read more

Oh my this place was awesome! It was upstairs and just really cool. There was a seated section and a section with pool tables, etc. Our waitress was very nice. We had delicious hummus with pita bread as an appetizer then had some awesome burgers. My husband had a burger that had two grilled cheeses in place of buns! Also love how you can have tater tots in place of fries. Would definitely come back! read more

Some of the worst treatment I have ever received at a bar. First off, their atm would not accept a $20 bill to exchange for quarters and then after putting the twenty dollars in the dart machine it took the full amount in credits and even though we pushed the reject button to get our money back, it still would not send any coins. Any machine with a reject button should give the money back. After this happened we asked a waitress what was going on with the machine only to have her try to make us feel as though we were in the wrong by saying "why would you put $20 in that machine" and saying there was nothing they could do because they didn't have the key. After this we asked for the manager and our waitress came back after a few minutes with some darts for one game and said that is all they can do for us. We argued this and she said we can come talk to her manager who was working the bar. He was extremely rude and refused to make any accommodations. Overall just a very rude staff and games that will steal your money. Also if you call to complain, their phone number does not work. Would not recommend to anyone. read more

The Attic is a fun place to take your friends for a bite to eat, play some games (free pool all day) or watch a game! Friendly staff and good atmosphere. Will be back soon! read more

Fun place to drink with friends. Jay P. was right on with the sweaty butthole smell. But still a fun place to drink and play foosball or pool :) read more

Best piece of Wisconsin here in boulder! Try the cheese curds--cheaper than a flight home, same effect.

After reading the reviews on Yelp I was intrigued. This place ROCKS!!!! I was a newbe and I will be back often. Great menu, food and value. Andy, Mike and the entire staff made me feel welcome. I think we all clicked and they knew I appreciated their service, local knowledge just like they do with every customer. This place is a nugget!!!!! read more

Comfortable feel, good drinks, and good food. The people are nice and attentive and the vibe is laid back. Definitely a nice alternative to Pearl St. read more

Friendly service great drinks and killer grilled cheese sandwich. We came as we are staying across the street loved it and kept returning because we felt so at home and welcomed. Thanks Andy for your hospitality. read more

Went here on a Friday during spring break, I was excited because my girl is friends with one of the owners relatives and she told us we would be well taken care of. So we walk in and our contact owner wasn't there, not a big deal. We pull up to the bar, there are 4 guys at the other end, and a 2 top behind us, that's all! There was 1 bartender and 2 cocktail waitresses, so plenty of help there. The bartender was talking with the guys at the end, she walked past us to grab them a beer, ignored us and then went back to them. The cocktail waitress grabbed 2 beers for the other people in the bar and walked past us. The bartender then looked at us and then processed to not look again. This was 6:30-7 at night, not closing time, opening time, no excuse for no service at all. Unless we are out with our friend I highly doubt I'd ever give them my money. read more

I go here for lunch about once a week. Great pub food, decent prices, one of the few places where you can interact with the owners on a regular basis. Burger Monday is the best lunch deal going. read more

Went to one bar looking for a particular college football game. They wouldn't change the tv to our game even though the game they had on was on multiple screens. So I searched Yelp for nearby sports bars. This was a great find. They were totally willing to put our game on. They had a great happy hour even on Saturday. Great tacos and sliders for $3. Service was great. Made for a fun afternoon. Next time we'll venture in the other room with pool tables and darts. Great find!! read more

Pros: 99% of the food is excellent; awesome happy hour specials, friendly services Cons: Slow service when seated (bar is always fast), I don't recommend getting the chicken wings they are rubbery, and almost taste microwaved. read more

Went here for a late lunch on a recent business trip. Had a burger and a few beers. Really nice atmosphere. The service was good and food as well. Nice that it was off of the main thoroughfare, quiet (at that time of day). I'll visit again next time. read more

This is some pretty great food! Tots? Good, Salad? SIDE Caesar Salad? Good. It's kinda like a good Wisconsin pub in Boulder!

This place is so awesome. Putting out great specials all the time. The staff is so friendly and winston (french bulldog) is the coolest thing. Glad to be a regular! Definitely coming back soon! read more

Awesome food! Great Bartenders.... Went in on Sunday. The first bartender was extremely attentive. We were there for about an hour before her shift ended. We were sad to see her go because we were having such a good time. But the night bartender was equally as awesome and went out of his way to make sure we were taken care of. The live music was a little loud but good. Free pool and plenty of games to keep u entertained. Fun bar! read more

This place was really nice! I was part of an event held here and we had a really easy time setting up. It had a really cool atmosphere and the food was good. Unfortunately, the service was extremely slow, to the point of frustration. read more
