    Came across this hidden gem by accident and what a special treat it was. Something about this place just feels so cool and relaxed and is the perfect place for a nightcap. All the drinks we had were great, I chose a Negroni which is my go to. The best part is they offer Underberg shots, which we'd never had before, but is a German digestif. If you're looking for a bar in downtown Denver, look no further, this is your sign to stop in.

    Cute, cute, cute. Fun little bar near to Larimer Square. Decor is eclectic and hilarious. Drinks are stylish, fun, and reasonably priced for high end spirits. Our server was so nice and very knowledgeable about the menu and spirits in general. I opted for "The Woo Girl" which included "booze" as the ingredients. Bathroom design and decor are both top notch as well! Great find and great listing on The Westword's 100 new and noteworthy bars in Denver!

    Cool spot with vintage vibes and a good place to socialize. Good pricing on Cocktails and they have an interesting selection and can also make something that you like. Friendly staff who keep you entertained.

    I'm obsessed with this cocktail bar! My friend and I found Bedlam after having dinner at A5 Steakhouse just around the corner. We grabbed seats along the wall, which was beautifully designed and decorated. Their Sazerac (Cub's Sazzy) is unique and one of the best I've had. Would love to come back to try more cocktails on their menu and sit at their main bar. Perfect for a date night or nightcap after dinner downtown.

    If the City of Denver can boast about some unique bar which gives you the 1920's Paris era ambiance where time stands still, then you should look no further. This space used to be Deep Roots Winery & Bistro which I utilized once in the past. I didn't know what had happened to them as my memory with them fell into oblivion. Apparently, it closed back in 2020 and the space had stood empty for years before the owner started to renovate the place and turned into a beautiful bar with all sorts of vintage stuff displayed throughout. Named after the first asylum for the mentally ill in England is a story that appears to have a deep meaning behind it, the bar's logo design is so intriguing and goes so well with the overall atmosphere of the bar. This place may be advertised as a bar with "European comfort food". The prices for the drinks and foods are extremely reasonable for the location (on Wazee) and the elevated atmosphere. This place, not like other places that have "closed days", is open 7 days a week from 4:30pm to 2am. People in Denver can rely on this place no matter what day of the week when they feel like a good bar food and a quick drink after work at 5pm or late into the night when you simply don't feel like going home because you just want to immerse yourself in some nostalgia. For me and my adult daughter, it was an early Christmas family dinner on a Tuesday night. I got a glass of Izadi Rioja Reserva and she got a glass of N/A Aperol Spritz. And to go with our drinks, we got us the Smoke Trout & Onion Dip and Baked Brie. On a wooden board, they gave us plenty of crackers and pieces of bread to savor the two dishes. Did we have any complaints to talk bad about any of the stuff we ordered? Absolutely not. No matter what your drink is, these two dishes will go well with it. A few things I would like to mention about this place: 1) This is not a place where you will expect to eat a lot of "filling" foods. After all, this is a cocktail bar with elevated bar foods. As far as we remember correctly, the menu for the food is quite small. Maybe you can eat lightly before you go here. But the drink options are plenty; it will not disappoint you. 2) Open bar seating only. I did call them ahead of time and made a (ghost) reservation but you might waste your effort by doing so. Just walk in and see if you can grab a table or a few bar seats. 3) This is more like a little suggestion to the bar staff/owner. The kind of music that was being played in the background was a bit of a mismatch to the overall ambiance. Like I said, this place is like stepping into 1920's Paris era (to me, that is how I describe it.) In my opinion, if they play the kind of music or songs used in the "Midnight In Paris" soundtrack, it would elevate the whole place to the next level (in short, some old jazz music would be great.) Well, ever since our last night's dining experience, I've told at least one of my good friends about this cocktail bar. Word of mouth is sometimes the best way to spread the good news; the good news about this place will most likely spread. As much as I want to keep this place secret as this is my "little gem" or "little jam", I simply couldn't hold back my excitement to be expressed on Yelp. So go check this place out.

    Excellent new cocktail bar in LoDo! A friend suggested this place and I was like "huh, what is that?" I had never heard of Bedlam until walking in. Once we made it inside I remembered this took over the former Deep Roots Winery space. The bar has a beautiful exposed brick wall, a carefully curated menu, and an overall aesthetically pleasing atmosphere. Definitely more of a cozy date spot, though us three dudes bellied up to the bar. I like places that serve craft cocktails, but don't judge you if you're in the mood for a shot and a beer. The bartenders here aren't pretentious at all. I ordered an Old Fashioned and it was tasty and well balanced. Little sweet, little bitter just how it should be. Let the whiskey shine! Glad to see this space back in action. A truly gorgeous bar that any bar rat should check out. Perfect for a quick cocktail!

    i lov themed bars. this one was so founding father coded. from the wall decor to the glasses/bottles, it felt cool. drinks wise it wasn't the best thing but still yom and had cool names.

    La Bandita cocktail

    Bedlam made Westword's Top 100 List under New and Noteworthy, and it is well-deserved. This narrow, well-decorated space reminds me of many NYC bars/restaurants. Service was fast and friendly. There are fun, upscale bites (Lays and caviar, who would have thought?) with excellent cocktails. I tried the La Bandita which went down a little too easily which to me, shows the expertise in the blend of ingredients (tequila, lime, Amari, and orange blossom water). A nice place to have a conversation with a friend and to just look at all the eclectic yet well-curated decor on the walls and around the area. A carved wooden sign hanging from wrought iron leads you to this lovely bar on Wazee Street.

    Beautiful aesthetic

    Amazing bar, Shawn is an absolute sweetheart and Moss as well. It was my best friends birthday and they both went out of their way to serve us and make the night special. Thank you guys!!

    Visited this spot for our third drink of the night. The drinks sounded delicious, but my heart was asking for an espresso martini. The bartender was gracious enough to make a delicious one for me. Loved the energy and vibe of this spot.

    I visit Denver quite often and was on the hunt for a new spot to grab a drink before heading to the…read more13th Floor "Love Bites" attraction. That's when I came across Dearly Departed and I'm so glad I did. We arrived right when they opened at 5pm and were able to walk in and be seated immediately. The speakeasy is tucked into the underground portion of the restaurant, which adds to the charm. The space is beautifully decorated, moody, intimate, and effortlessly upscale. It truly sets the tone the moment you walk down. We ordered two spritzes and a charcuterie board, and both exceeded expectations. The drinks were refreshing, perfectly balanced, and felt elevated without being overcomplicated. But the real star was the charcuterie board. For $20, it was an incredible value, stacked with a variety of meats, cheeses, fresh veggies, nuts, and peppers. The freshly grilled bread was a standout touch, and the portions were more than generous. Every bite felt thoughtfully curated, and there was something new and delicious in every corner of the board. Between the ambiance, the quality of the drinks, and the impressive food, Dearly Departed delivered an experience that felt both cozy and refined. I'd absolutely recommend checking it out for the atmosphere alone. I'm already looking forward to going back and trying more from their menu.

Cozy spot for some classy bites and cocktails. I think I probably got off on the wrong foot when I asked for sparkling water instead of flat and found out it was $7 per personal mini bottle (and they don't have club soda). My first time encountering that in Denver in the last 14 years... The cocktail concept is cool: pick a classic, slightly updated, or super creative version from 5 categories (martini, old fashioned, sour, spritz, highball). The spicy mango sour (with mezcal) was awesome -- although I expected egg white on a sour. The martinis were ok... a bit of a let-down in today's collection of Denver martinis at other local spots (think anchovy, sour cream and onion, holy trinity, and old bay). The food was also hit or miss. We loved the cauliflower/potato Bravas with the slightly spicy sauce, as well as the croquettes and their sauce. The tuna crudo was super bland, which is disappointing for $19.

I had the eggs Benedict with duck, which was savory and tender- would get again, even if it was a little small for a $22 meal. I also got a mimosa and a raspberry beret- the beret was delicious and served with the coolest presentation- they used dry ice to create smoke! The decor is very maximalist mid century- love it! Great for a date or if you are impressing someone. Don't let the location scare you off- everything around it looks closed but once you get inside it's absolutely beautiful. I can't end this review without gushing about the staff. I had a weird fainting episode and scared the crap out of my friend- our server and the rest of the staff were on it, so sweet and helpful. They got me a cold towel and an ice bucket so that I could recover. I was so impressed by how they handled everything! Ultimately, I would come back just for the service, but the food and drinks were excellent as well. Definitely worth returning for!

A Wednesday 430pm - wasn't crowded. My husband told them it was my birthday before we arrived so they made me an ube martini. Purple and fantastic! I ordered the tiramisu, my husband got a classic espresso and my best friend got the Dubai chocolate. All of them were beautiful! I think my favorite was the Dubai chocolate. We also ordered appetizers of the burrata and the sweet potato croquette. Burrata is always fantastic! The croquettes were good. They were doing Star Wars themed drinks for May the 4th so Star Wars was playing in a screen (that you could barely see due to the sun). They both got the red velvet espresso martini topped with whipped coffee. It was cute but very sugary. Service was fantastic! The staff was so nice!! Maybe I'm just not used to inflation yet but the prices for everything just felt so expensive!!

I had the aqua profunda (cognac, St. George basil eau di vie, lillet rose, strawberry, lime, and absinthe). I also had the eight limb daiquiri (rum, Canada aguardiente, Thai tea cordial, lime leaf, and Maraschino). The Blood Oath (mezcal, Vecchio del capo, Calabrian chili amaro, St. Germain Elderflower, lavender, honey, lemon). All were complex and delicious. You could pick out every flavor, yet everything melded together so well. They also have some basic bar food and snacks, but somewhat elevated. I had the D&C Burger and it was juicy, rich, and had some great accompanying fries. I usually try to give a more in depth idea of cocktails available, but Death & Co has such a diverse menu with so many amazing craft cocktails that I can't offer that this time . . . you'll have to go in and see it for yourself!

It is unique and they do a good job blending both together to create some really good food and drinks. I selected three tacos to enjoy. Two pastor tacos and campechano. All were really good. The pastor was well seasoned and tender. The campechano was a first for me, and I am glad I tried it. Campechano is a mix, as the word describes, of beef and chorizo. This was the standout of the meal! I also tried the dumplings de barbacoa which were also excellent. Spicy, but really good. This was a really good fusion menu item. The tacos are all made by the taco truck set up outside of Malinche. You can actually get tacos from the truck without going into Malinche if you so desire or if there is no seating. (Speaking of, make reservations! Malinche has limited space/seating). The decor is very unique and is really pretty to look at. The audiobar portion of the bar's name is fun as well. The audiobar rotates through all the genres of music that exists from all the music decades you can think of. A fun time for sure. Will absolutely be back for another Happy Hour!
