    Pretty large indoor seating
    Catherine M.

    Probably one of our favorite beer stops we made in Denver! The staff was awesome- shoutout to Eric, the best bartender we chilled with on short trip. Metal music, thin slice pizza, and some tasty beers- what more can you ask for. We tried a lot of the beers with small tastes- broos light was solid and pretty much loved every beer we tried. The pizza was fantastic- the crust was so thin and they hook it up with the toppings. Nice to be able to get just a slice since we didn't have a fridge to bring a big pie home to. They have an outdoors, games you can play, and the music is great.

    We've passed this brewery a million times, but only have been in twice. We really need to go more often. First off, you can't beat the service and friendly staff. You can tell they all enjoy coming to work. That makes a huge difference! The beers are really good. They have an excellent variety on tap for any kind of beer lover. I've actually had the food twice, and the kitchen does a fantastic job. If you have time, go for a pizza. If not, you can't go wrong with a sandwich and soup. Now, this is just a personal opinion and of course I know I was at Black Sky Brewery. But again for me, the music was a bit loud. I'm more of a classical music guy than heavy metal, although I can appreciate all kinds of music. I guess I've turned into my dad. Will I be back? Absolutely! Would I recommend Black Sky Brewery? In a heartbeat! Go check it out for yourself.

    Don't let the outside fool you. Located right across from Trade, this place features a very wide list of beers and really tasty things crust pizza. You order at the bar and then they bring you the pizza to your table. The bartender was very friendly and knowledgeable. The wait for the pizza was a bit on the long side but so worth it!

    My first stop when I arrived to Denver was this brewery. All I wanted was some good beer after a six hour drive from ABQ. I got there about an hour and a half before closing but I guess they closed early that night because they already had all the stools up and were doing their cleaning. So I left. Came back a few weeks later and it was a great experience. I got a flight of some solid beers. The bartender was great. Very friendly and even warned me about the Fear the Peach Reaper before I ordered a full pint of this spicy beer. I'm glad I only got the taster because it was spicy and would've wrecked my stomach with a full pint. The taproom had a nice vibe to it. I enjoyed my visit.

    Stopped in for some food and sips after a park cleanup in Lakewood and this place was nearby. Really glad we checked it out!! The bartender was super cool and helpful with us while choosing a tall glass of something we would enjoy. After some tastes, we both ended up with the Blackwater Berry, which is like a red wine beer. It is so good! I want it again!! To eat, I built my own pizza. Was excited to see some different ingredients like cream cheese and roast beef - so I did that along with mushrooms. It did not disappoint! I've had cream cheese on pizza before, at a place in Milwaukee where I used to live so even though it might sound weird at first, it's actually very good! (obviously, you must already like cream cheese). Looking forward to another visit to this place. It's pretty dark inside, not a lot of windows or light, which is fine for wintertime anyway! There are also some games inside to play. It has a very welcoming vibe!

    Lovely staff & good beer! I just sat the bar to read on a Sunday, so it wasn't very busy. The music was metal, but it wasn't super loud so not disrupting at all. The pretzel was fine - nothing special, just classic yummy bread & salt!

    Awesome place to grab a drink and a snack to eat! The bartenders are great! Would recommend to anyone who likes metal and booze.

    Bacon jalepeno pizza
    Starr W.

    Pizza. Metal. Badassery. This place has it all. Awesome staff with piping hot pizza that will make your tastebuds do cartwheels. Cj, the bartender is super friendly and has great recommendations. I had no idea what I wanted but I knew I wanted something GOOD. She recommended the Jalepeno Bacon. She said it with such conviction, I had no CHOICE but to give in to my temptations. And so... 5 minutes (not even) later. She drops this HUUUUUGE slice of pizza with equal amounts of jalapenos as it did bacon. The bacon was sizzling, the cheese was bubbling, and I immediately indulged! Their pizzas are the size of two average slices. It is a full meal! They had vendors around selling dope art, jewelry, and more. I will check more of that side out soon, but this doesn't end here. I got their Ginger Mule.. AND O M G.. it was beyond delicious. It paired so well with the pizza, I damn near wanted to slap her for making me feel so guilty from all the goodness. She told me about how she implemented this recipe at a restaurant she loved in NOLA. She brought the idea here, which is how the Mule got put on the menu. It is quite easily the best Mule I have ever had! Black Sky still has me high... on pie.

They looked at my receipt multiple times, which made it feel like they didn't quite believe me, and I ended up waiting an additional 15 minutes while they sorted it out. I was also told that next time my company should call instead of ordering online, which was confusing since they offer an online preorder option in the first place. That said, the pizza itself was really good. The crust was thick, salty, and a bit oily in that satisfying way, and the ingredients tasted fresh. One thing to note is the portion size, don't underestimate it. Even a small Detroit-style pizza is dense and can easily feed 2-4 people. Overall, I'm giving it 4 stars because the food was great, but the online ordering experience could definitely use some improvement.

Actually, this spot is centrally located, on the edge of Uptown and Five Points, right between City Park and the Central Business District. There's also a nice parking lot. I ordered the Supreme with tomato sauce, mozzarella, pepperoni, Italian sausage, red onion, bell pepper, mushrooms, and kalamata olives. I found it very average. I collected it promptly at the time specified, but the crust was very soggy and too droopy to pick up a slice. The toppings were OK, but nothing special. The amount of tomato sauce was a little light for my taste and it was very bland. The same with the cheese. I had heard good things about this place, but there is far superior pizza to be had in Denver these days. I was not impressed. The area is not well-lighted and it's kind of creepy at night. So is the building. The staff was friendly and they did bring me my takeout box promptly.

    Great food and good service!…read more Street parking so make sure you read the signs. A lot of other restaurants so you might have to go down a few streets. Went here for a friends birthday so we made a reservation. It wasn't that busy when we arrived but it is a small space so never hurts to reserve a table. Our server was very knowledgeable and was able to answer all our questions about portion sizes and what ingredients were in each item. We ordered the garlic bread and salad to share and I got the Cacio e Pepe full size. I didn't eat the salad but my friends really liked it! The garlic bread was AMAZING! Definitely the talk of the night! It's only three slices and it was a little pricy but seemed worth it. The full-size Cacio e Pepe was creamy and delicious! I didn't finish it all intentionally because I wanted to take the rest for lunch tomorrow. I would definitely suggest this one to anyone! At the bottom of the menu, it does say that a 20% service fee is added onto everyone's bill and that this is not a tip. I think it's important to point this out because some people might misinterpret it so definitely take that as you will. Overall, the food was amazing, it was a little pricey, but worth it for a friend's birthday.

    Very average. The decor is cool, the place is pretty loud…read morebut lively. We ordered garlic bread, a custom pizza with sausage , ravioli with lamb and pasta with arugula pesto and asparagus all to share. The ravioli came first. It was pretty bland even for my 7 yr old. Lamb was slightly dry and bland. The pizza was average, ok. The other pasta never arrived. We waited over 30 min after we had finished dishes before we just had to cancel the order. They said they only have 10 pans for pasta and they had 41 orders...at that point we just wanted to leave plus the lightest pasta was going to be served last. On top of that, the waiter while I was talking took my drink that was 40% full and I was saving it to go with my meal as I wasn't going to order a second cocktail. That was annoying and felt deliberate to try to get us to order more drinks while we waited.

As in Macaroni and Cheese and bacon, ham hocks, peas, IPA. Went on a Sunday afternoon (will I be happy when the Donkeys are no longer on TV) to drink beers and eat. Decided to "step outside the box" and ordered "Mac & Cheese" instead of pizza. This is the best M&C I have ever eaten in a restaurant and it will also make me step up my efforts at home. 18DEC2011 I arrive at 1347 which is 13 minutes before they open on a beautiful warm Sunday afternoon in Denver. There are people (shall we refer to them as "alcoholics"?) who are also waiting. When the door is unlocked (3 minutes early), 14 people rush in. At 1406, it is standing room only. What makes this place so popular? Could it be the Avery Brewing tasting flight? Rumpkin beer. Could it be the slice of the day: Cheeseburger? Could it be the excellent bartender service? Could it be the perfect bar atmosphere? Well, I won't tell. You need to visit for yourself. 05OCT2011 This time, we ate there. Excellent pizza. Very good service. 13SEP2011 making progress Free Wi-Fi. Always good. 31AUG2011 Walked the 2 blocks from my house and picked up an Artisan Pizza. Excellent. Super thin crust. Bursting with flavor. $2 craft beer in cans (6 to chose from) on Wednesdays. I really need to return and just work my way thru the huge beer selection.
