    I popped in between appointments in Aravada for a beer and to sit on my laptop. Came for the balloons. Stayed for the inns.

    Friendly dive bar. Decent prices. None of the pretentiousness of old town. Solid place to duck into when you're in need of a release

    Get thee to T Birds for the pork cutlet!…read more Seriously, this Midwest treat is executed perfectly, 8 oz of pork tenderloin pounded just enough to give the perfect, crispy, tender unctuous bite dressed with pickle and diced white onion. Fried at the perfect temp it's not oily, just juicy deliciousness. And OH MY WORD can you say pepperoncini aioli!! Yes please!!! But wait, there's more- dress the whole thing with a spicy, vinegary slaw and you have the sandwich of my dreams. Seriously, this is the first time I've encountered this sandwich in Denver and I'm so happy I did. We also tried to pulled pork sandwich which was nice but a little on the lean side. I almost wonder if they're shredding pork tenderloin for the pulled pork because it did miss that fatty gooeyness of a pork shoulder But very tasty. Yeah I'm sure the fries are hand cut, tasty "mom" fries (like moms kitchen). Maybe not super crispy, personal preference, but who cares, because again, pepperoncini aioli! I'm not sure the cocktail program is quite dialed in yet. The drinks sounded great but lack balance possibly because they're being served in a pint glass instead of a rocks or a Collins glass where I think they would benefit from not trying to make up extra volume with mixer. Lots of great beer choices Service was excellent. Staff was friendly. We would definitely go back. Monday is all day happy hour, Sunday They do NFL specials and they have a normal happy hour from 3:00 to 6:00 and live music on the weekends. Definitely get your a$$ over there, support a local business doing something creative and cool

They have a lineup of fun classic arcade games in the front area near the bar, and then there's a larger space with pinball and other arcade games in the back. The ambiance is great with fun wall art, moody lighting, and dark interior. They have cocktails, mocktails/NA options, and food available as well. The bartender was kind and even gave us some tokens another guest had left behind! Games aren't cheap - about $1 per person per play - but I suppose that's what they run these days. We played: NBA Jam Big Buck Hunter Pacman 4-player Guitar Hero Arcade and a few others! Fun with a small group or solo for a few drinks with an activity.

We dipped in here because it's so crazy hot out at the farmers market. Highly recommend popping in here for a snack a drink and playing some arcade games. There's even a room in the back with more games so don't miss that. People working here are super kind and fun. Everything's clean and bright artsy and fun!

    Great little place to hang out with friends old and new. This saloon has a quirky, dodgy charm with…read morean incredible happy hour. Be aware though, it is not one of those manufactured dive bars seeking to draw in the youngsters looking for a prefab thrill - the Rose is very much for people who want to escape the craptastic churched-up over-priced swill joints and enjoy the company of hard working blue collar/no collar men and women who are not interested in anything but chillin' like villains. There is plenty of parking in the back, and a large, comfortable smoking patio. Noticed a few signs posted inside advertising a potluck Thanksgiving feast this Thursday so if you have no place else to go maybe you can stop in with a side dish to share (or at least a veggie tray). Don't be a dick though, as it appears bad behaviour will definitely not tolerated. Pro tip: This is a local watering hole, everybody apparently does know everybody, which might imply some familial serving priority by the staff. That is not the case though, as they proved to be friendly to new faces and if you courteously ask the barkeeps for their names and offer yours, chances of exceptional service increase.
