I ordered a Medium Rare Burger and the Bar Tender Lady said "They'll cook it the way you want it." I asked if the Chef cooked more on the Rare Side or Done Side I was very disappointed in the burger. After 2 small bites, I threw the rest in the trash. The French Fries were very Tasty as was the Blue Cheese Dressing. I will go back ;-( read more

Get the fried food. The onion rings alone were over the top--crispy and flakey on the crust and crisp and juicy on the inside. Server was on her own but did a great job, always attentive and helpful. This place is unique and their rating is deserved. read more

Wanted to spice it up and try something a little different then what I'm used to. We came in on a Sunday at 1pm for lunch and we walked in the bar was full, we ordered a bunch of appetizers for the table. All the food came out with tones of flavor the beef chicken and wings were excellent, make sure to get the blue cheese to dip your wings with!!!! It's homemade and has big chunks. It's a very sports bar with a bunch of tv's to watch football or any sports. read more

Went here for lunch with my coworker the other day and both liked it! It reminded us of a lot of places back in our home town near Buffalo NY. He ordered a dozen wings for 1$ wing Wednesday, tossed in buffalo sauce. I ordered the chicken tender and fries with bbq sauce to dip. Both of us liked our lunches just fine! The bartender was the server as well, and she was great. read more

Ambiance is a bit dive-bar, and you would never expect the excellent food and service we got. The appetizers were fresh, hot and housemade (nothing frozen here) and both the server and the cook checked on us regularly. The buffalo chicken won tons were tasty. Definitely a hidden gem. read more

Food was good. Servers was awesome. She was very attentive and super sweet. I didn't know this place existed. It's a nice little bar with TVs and decent food. Definitely going back. read more

This place is so good. The beer on tap is the coldest I've found in a long time. Everything I've eaten there has been really good including the potato skins, crunchy tacos, and burgers, but I was devastated to learn they don't have the fried Mac and cheese anymore! I'm begging that they bring them back! read more

From cold glasses served with beer, to friendly staff. Backstreet has become my new go-to spot. The food is also amazing. I usually go with the wings, or sliders. Both are great. They do $1 wings on Wednesdays, and poker night on Thursday is always busy. Also S/O to bartender Luke. New favorite bar tender in Denver. Classic dive bar feel, with great food and drinks at reasonable prices. read more

Great burger, tots. Fries...all that plus a bit more. Just a nice locale bar/restaurant.

Dive bar with great food and drink specials? Sign me up, this place is a gem. Mozzarella sticks - I could go as far to say that they are the best I've had in Denver. I'm usually a ranch dipper with my sticks, but their marinara is amazing. I'd buy it by the jar if I could. The patty melt - I'm a big sandwich fan, so give me bread and meat and I'm a happy gal. The onions were grilled to perfection Buffalo chicken sandwich - I usually don't go for the Buffalo sauce, but it was surprisingly really good Tater tots - I like my tots crispy and these were great Fries - the perfect amount of seasoning. I can't wait to try the rest of the menu read more

Really great bar food. Very attentive server. It is a tavern, so be aware of that, but great for some shareable bites. We ordered: - Mozzarella sticks - Sliders - onion Rings - wings read more

Great neighborhood bar. Lots of big TV screens with sports playing. Great friendly service and good bar food. Nice place to hangout with a cold beer and bar food to watch a game. read more

Its off the beaten path one block west of Havana (I've seen old packs of matches that suggest its at Mississippi & Havana ) Good place to watch the Broncos games (my buddy Lanny would drag me here and may he RIP) and it was always a good time. Decent bar food too if you want a burger or sandwich !! read more

Server was great. Food was very good as well. Had a Reuben and Mozzarella sticks, and my son had cheeseburger. It was high quality bar food (a compliment here). All great and reasonably priced. (Only thing I would do differently was ask if they had malt vinegar for the fries, as they were boardwalk style). read more

My husband and I came here for dinner and we were glad we did. The atmosphere was very relaxed, music on the jukebox, people playing pool, and although the tv's were on, the sound was off and you could carry on a conversation. We both ordered burgers and fries and although my burger was missing two main elements (mushrooms and onions), the burgers were juicy and flavorful and the bun was fresh and held up to the burger. Lynne, our server was attentive and friendly even though she was the only one serving all the customers. We were impressed! We will be back because this place is very close to our house ( and we had never seen it or heard of it before), and we enjoyed everything about our experience. read more

Only giving 2 stars because staff was pleasant. Otherwise, TERRIBLE food, and I do mean terrible. "Potato skins" are basically baked potatoes with gross refrigerator flavored chicken that tasted like tofu, zero flavor added salt and pepper still didn't help. "Jalapeño poppers" were literally awful, some weird think oil flavored crust on them, bacons underneath was not cooked just raw. Bloody marry was straight vodka with zero flavor or spice, "house made ranch" was awful, tasted like dollar tree salad dressing ranch. I will never go back ever. I've eaten at thousands of sports bars and restaurants in 35+ states and this was the worst so far. The positive reviews were left by friends and family. Pictures are what I LEFT after attempting to eat that junk. read more

This is a hidden gem. Yes, it has been remodeled and looks fantastic. Yes, it has two sections of outdoor seating. Yes, the place has fantastic food...Yes, yes, yes. I have been to the Backstreet Tavern a couple of times. I have always had great service, food, and a laid back experience. Granted I have never seen the place full, but the waitstaff is attentive, and I never waited for a drink. The food is pure bar fare, but is well made and executed. I had the wings, which were pretty good, and the cheese filled, bacon wrapped, jalapenos (real jalapeno poppers)...they were exceptional. The bar has live music some nights, but the night I showed up for live music, the band didn't. The bar is very clean, and the crowd is friendly. The only problem I have with this bar is that it is off the main street, and doesn't have a large enough sign for passerby's to know it is there. If you can find it, stop in, you wont be disappointed. read more

I went on Yelp and searched for "Dive Bars in Aurora" in search for some local eats. This place came up as a best recommendation, it literally is on the road right behind my local Costco. I am glad I found this place, from the outside I could tell it was a "dive bar" but that did not stop me on a mission for bar food! It is open seating and there was music going, I could totally tell this place had a good vibe. Overall the place was super clean and everyone was getting along there, seemed like this place had a ton of regulars which is awesome!. Within 1-2 minutes of sitting down we were greeted by a very friendly server/bartender and asked what we were drinking. I saw on the menu that they had some wings and you can never go wrong with wings, I ordered them traditional buffalo and then for my main dish was the patty melt. Everything game out hot and fresh, now the wings had VERY nice crisp outside to them and super juicy on the inside. The wings were very meaty as well, the buffalo had a slight kick but not too much of a kick where it was burning my mouth. They also make their own homemade ranch which tasted great. Now the patty melt I could tell that they use Angus beef (and they did advertise that they did), I ordered mine about a medium well and was cooked to perfection! The patty melt was nice and juicy and tasted awesome, each bite was packed full of flavor and they put a homemade sauce on it as well. The french fries were nice and crispy and packed with flavor with the season they use, everything was AMAZING. I am glad I found this place. Trust me you will not leave hungry, I was so full, I almost had to be rolled out of there! 5/5 stars 100% if you live locally here it is a MUST try! Thank you for reading my review! read more

Hidden gem dive bar located behind king soopers. You have to be a local to find this place there's no way you can see it just by driving on Mississippi. Happy hour is 3-7pm and Poker is on Thursday nights starting at 7:30pm #RowdyPoker. Lots of parking with a wrap around patio, great for a summer get together. Inside has a open feel with lots of TVs. The couple times I've been here servers were friendly and efficient. Everybody yeah, rock your body yeah, Backstreet's back all right! read more

We stopped in around 10:15 pm and asked if the kitchen was open. It was closed, but Will said he'd cook us anything we wanted anyway. We asked for his recommendation which was dry rubbed chicken wings with sauce on the side. The wings were so good, no sauce was needed or used. We also got an order of chicken tenders with fresh cut fries. Everything was delicious! Will talked with us for a while. He's from New Orleans and is a very personable and friendly gentleman. He's very dedicated to the business owner which shines brilliantly through his customer service attitude, friendliness and willingness to work late to serve patrons. I wish I lived in the Denver area so I could become a regular here. I'll just have to stop by anytime I return to town. read more

This place was surprisingly great, the bartender was really friendly and helped my boyfriend and I pick out something from the menu. We sat at the bar and got our drinks and food in a timely manor. I ordered the fish and chips since it was that days special. The fries were probably my favorite part, I absolutely love love love hand cut fries. These were cooked till crispy and golden and not at all oily or flimsy. The side coleslaw was also super delicious and had a sweet and creamy flavor. The fried fish was a little on the oily side but the meat was tender and not over cooked. My boyfriend ordered the Cuban sandwich which I didn't think was anything special but it was good. We also ordered there hand battered onion rings, they were good but also a little oily. Overall everything was pretty good and would recommend going here for a chill place to drink and eat. Will definitely be going here again for some good food and friendly atmosphere. read more

Very impressed with Casey's ability to work this neighborhood bar and grill, when we've stopped in for lunch the last 3 weeks. She had told my son and I the Monte Cristo special was really good. Today we each had one with the generous side offered and a beer for lunch! Both of us were pleased. The only drawback is the sandwich is no longer on the menu but having it as a specialty when Casey (who works Wednesdays) can convince them too cook. Casey is such a personable and capable bar tender/waiter we will return on Wednesdays for more. I do advise to call ahead 1 hour before if you have your mouth set for the special as I did today. read more

This place is great! My boyfriend and I found it while trying to find a happy hour location near his apartments. This place is a bit hidden but so worth checking out. The athmosphere is super chill and laid back. We sat at the bar. We were assisted immediately. The barista was great-fun and chatty. The hot wings were ammmaazzinnggg and delicious. Overall, great place to relax and just be present. read more

I love Tavern- Hopping on a Monday night! Because it's literally a ghost town and it's not so busy, which means our service was top- notch. This is your very much expected American sports bar with appetizers, burgers and salads... Oh let's not forget: BEER. I personally enjoyed how some of the items are made on the house and who doesn't love that? Well, I wanted one of everything on the menu, so I went with the " Our Fab 5*," which came with the ideal trait for sharing for two: As described on their website:: Perfect for sharing try a taste of our freshly made selection of our blaze of glory poppers (2), backstreet wings (4), hand dipped beer battered onion rings, hand cut and breaded cluckers (2), and fully loaded potato skins (2). Served with 2 fresh, house made dipping sauce. The Poppers were very mild, a medium level of spiciness. I roughly enjoyed it. Because it's a challenge for my tummy, I tried their wings, though I wanted boneless, otherwise my hubby loved it. The hand dipped beer onion rings was a NEW IDEA for me, because damn.. Never had tried that before. You all definitely need to try that, if y'all wanna come and stop by. Their bbq sauce is very friendly with my taste buds, definitely wanted 50 more of those to take home. I'm not heavy into meat, so I definitely enojyed the Mac & Cheese* As described: Fresh cheese sauce cooked with apple wood smoked bacon, jalapenos, green onions and topped with a sprinkle of toasted, spiced panko bread crumbs. Some of the best I've ever had in awhile. I think this sports bar has kickass food. read more

I've been to this place many times over the past 10 years and have always enjoyed it. I went there on 9/28/17 and I think that it was probably the last time. The server was very nice. But the food was horrible and I'm pretty sure the fryer is broken. We had to send the fries back because they were ice cold when they came out. We even had the waitress try them and she agreed. She quickly corrected it and got us another order. I didn't realize until after I had eaten some of them that the wings were also not cooked. Just thought you should know so you can fix it. read more

We found this place on yelp really just trying to avoid all of the fast food places on our first trip to the area. Doesn't look like much from the outside, but everything we ate was AMAZING. I had the backstreet burger with jalapeño cream cheese and bacon, and my parents had the monte Cristo and chicken fingers. Everything was absolutely delicious! Whoever is in the kitchen really knows what they are doing, and the bartender/server was great and seems like she'd have loads of regulars who stop by. Great spot, if we lived nearby we'd be here all the time! read more
