So my son picked this place I looked at the reviews and said fine as most of them were due to the service ... don't do what I did. Go someplace else. Beer was cold that is the best thing I can say. Oh and the beer cheese sauce for the pretzels was great, however the pretzel bites were BLACK! And yet they still served them - I let it go. Potato skins came out almost burnt again we were having a family day (my son is in for a few days) and we had been hiking so we ate them. Then the burgers came out. OMG I almost lost my mind. My Med burger was let's just say overly well done. Yet the cheese was not melted. I finally had it asked my server for the manager. Apparently he WAS the mgr. are you kidding me and you served that food?? He did take off the pretzel bites, the pot skins and my burger and our bill was still over $50. HORRIBLE!! Run don't walk to the next restaurant. read more

Recently I had lunch with a friend at Brooks.I knew the food is marginal at best because I had eaten there before,however what really was upsetting is that they decided on their own to increase the tip amount I left.The waitress was pleasant so I left about 20% or $3.00 on a $16.00 tab. Brooks decided to take $4.50 .When I called them,they did offer a FREE lunch but since I never was a fan of their food to begin with ,I declined and asked for my money back.Never in all my years have I experienced such outright deception ,while it is NOT the $1.50 I am upset about,it is the fact that Brooks decided what amount I should be tipping. Needless to state that I will never again eat there or recommend it to anyone,Please check you credit card statement after "dining" there. Linda read more

I have been to brooks many many times. There food is always excellent. If there happens to be a mistake with our order it is quickly fixed. Staff has always been very kind and welcoming. Brooks seems to be one of the few places in Conifer/Bailey that is consistently a pleasant experience. read more

My wife and I have been to both the old and new locations many many times, and i have to say, the move was absolutely for the better. I applaud the owners for the way they managed the move. They clearly thought out and identified what the potential pitfalls were and made some key decisions that kept the service and quality top notch through the transitional phase. The biggest of which was reopening with a paired down menu. Fewer choices at first glance doesn't seem to be a win, but it allowed them to execute everything that was there, very well. The menu has since grown, and has even added a nice seasonal section, which thus far has contained all winners. Brooks Place also gained a much greater, and in my opinion better, beer selection from the move. It is impressive, especially for being up in the mountains (though the wait staff seems a little under-educated on the beer list). There are good selections of rotating seasonals that are usually very well selected as well. There are also a good number of TVs that make it a fine place to watch a game, but the overall comfortable and homey atmosphere really makes it a good choice anytime. The food - It's surprisingly good. I don't know if they got a new chef for the new place, but everything i've had has been an order of magnitude better. The blackened blue burger is ridiculously good, perfectly seasoned, juicy, and always cooked to requested specifications. The fried pickles are also awesome. Writing this has made me hungry. I'm going to Brooks Place! read more

We came here after zip lining with Denver Adventure Tours (which was awesome). I ordered the chicken kebabs, and my son had the bacon cheeseburger. First, I didn't taste his cheeseburger, but he seemed to like it and ciabatta is a nice touch. The patty looked like a performed, frozen patty. Sad, but oh well. The fries were crispy and nicely seasoned. My kebabs looked pretty. I asked for no pita and more salad, which they graciously provided. The salad was lovely with kalamata olives and feta on romaine. My only complaint was that the chicken was dry. Super dry. Stick to your throat dry. Tzatziki helps but just not enough. Looked like a fun happy hour bar to visit, but as I was with my son, I can't really comment on that aspect. read more

The nachos are amazing-homemade queso. Good burgers and chicken strips and wings. Salads are good. We like to split apps. Hope to see blat and grilled cheese on the summer menu! read more

Green salsa with chips is thee best in Colorado! Homemade foods rock! No mono sodium glutamate in either of their foods. Chili was great too! read more

Brooks Place Tavern - Burgers Near Me - Conifer, Colorado

Brook's Place Tavern is our Go-To place for great food, all sporting events (there are SO many TV's!) and to meet with friends. Service has always been professional, food has always been yummy and the owner's have a hands on attitude with their crew, their customers and their business. Restrooms are always clean, patio service is wonderful. This restaurant is a perfect addition to the 285 corridor! read more

Guineas on tap. Good Mac and cheese. Steaks could be a little better. Great burgers and guineas on tap. They always have a good special.

This is a great place to go if you love many choices of beer. The service is fantastic. Never been disappointed in my food. My favorite is the gyro. Good place for lunch. read more

After my first complaint the owner responded right away. That is great customer service. Looking forward to trying out the food soon!

Service was great. Waiter kept out drinks full and food came out of the kitchen quick and hot. Wedge burger was filling and the Patty Melt was delicious. Lots of toppings on the side salad. Bathrooms very clean as well. Not too loud for a Sunday night, Olympics on the T.Vs. read more

Meh, not much to choose from in Conifer and this place seems to get most of Conifer's business. We come here a lot based on slim pickings in restaurants but that isn't saying much. Everything here from food to service is hit or miss, mostly miss. After being disappointed with many of the spendy entrees I usually settle for the burger and it's usually cooked wrong and served with wilted lettuce. If you're lucky you might just get an edible sandwich. Tip: the salmon on the kids menu is the best option but about as bland as you'll ever taste. Sure would be nice if a Five Guys with booze opened up here in Conifer, it would probably put this place outta business. read more

I've tried several things on the menu and have had several specials... I've yet to have anything I didn't like. The staff are all amazing and the restaurant is always clean. It's a little pricey on some things, but i've never regretted paying for the quality of the food and the service. read more

Recently moved to Conifer, CO from Manhattan, NY. Been to Brook's Place Tavern about a dozen times. The food is good and some of the servers are excellent, but others are just awful. This is a case of a few bad apples... The decent food isn't good enough to risk the poor service. read more

The chicken pesto wrap is fantastic!! Pair it with tots or fries and their yummy homemade ranch for a great lunch or dinner. I love their seasonal menu changes that always offer new favorites and keep the menu fresh - so needed in such a small town. Don't miss Steve's Tri-tip sliders when they are available - they are amazing!! Staff is knowledgeable and friendly and they have a great selection of beers and specialty cocktails. read more

Shouldn't allow kids at the bar. Looks like a nice neighborhood place, but kids should not be allowed at the bar.

My recommendation is to take the Reuben sandwich off the menu until the cook knows how to slice a corned beef. I had a really difficult time cutting the meat even with a knife and fork and trying to chew and swallow. I finally gave up and mentioned to the waitress that the meat was improperly cut - not against the grain. This caused the manager? to come to the table and say "we know how to cut the corned beef, against the grain. " Not sure if she was a manager because she never even introduced herself before leading with the above comment. My comment back was that it was not cut against the grain. She continued on " then you shouldn't have eaten most of it." Okay. I thought feedback might be helpful but was taken by surpise how indignant and unprofessional she was. Obviously no manager or customer recovery training. I didn't ask for, or expect, anything off the bill. The manager then went in the kitchen and never came out the rest of the time we were there. Maybe she found out I was right? I hope she was, and should have been, embarrassed. Whitney the server: awesome. read more

Utterly ridiculous. I go to Brooks with a large group once a month and have always have subpar service at best. Just today we went in with 50+ people, the usual group, and were told we couldn't move tables, would be unable to split any checks, yet were still being forced to pay an 18% gratuity for the mediocre service. It's utterly stupid of the owner to not realize when a group is coming to throw thousands at your restaurant you show your thanks by allowing them to be able to socialize with one another on their terms. If your staff isn't trained well enough, or cooks organized enough, to support your business then you need to rethink your staff. read more

Ok. I know it was just a grilled cheese and tomato soup, but it's a perfect gc and tomato soup AND it was GF... which is virtually impossible. Cool bar, great service and huge menu. read more

A favorite place for the kids and I. Kids love the food (burgers are awesome) and I love the tap beer selection! read more

See all

Caveat: I did not expect much from a small mountain town restaurant to begin with but after my second visit, I should write a review. I'm not impressed, to say the least. We had some gin and tonics (okay, should not order this at a tavern in Conifer) and the tonic was horrible and heavy/sweet. Fine, let's move on to the food. The Buddha Bowl (another mistake) was ordered with chicken since they were out of salmon (they are out of a lot of things a lot, apparently). The sauce was horrendous and a bit too thick with no flavor. Some fish sauce + lime would have been far better, or even hosin sauce + oyster sauce. The chicken slices were RAW! Thank God I spotted that. So they took it back and did what- they chopped the chicken up, overcooked it, and gave me back the same plate. Wow! Of course, it took me forever to find out waitress who was coming out in the little cubby area where they process credit cards I guess. The manager (I'm guessing) finally came and helped me out. That was about 7-8 minutes while I sat there trying to get some attention. I left most of the plate since it was pretty un-edible. The Ribeye ($27) steak was chewy and a really bad cut. My wife left over half of it and at the rest, while cutting to find the good parts which were chewy but possible to chew up at least. The beans and mashed potatoes were good. The salad was decent though I only tried a bite. Of course, they charged us for that horrible Buddha Bowl which lay 75% uneaten,I doubt I will go back here. I only go since a friend lives closeby. If I do go, I will order a burger or gyro...maybe. Keep it simple. I'm just not sure the cook or cooks know anything about cooking and sauces. The service is pretty sub-par. If the food was cheap, that would be one thing. Still, I'll go try a burger sometime. They surely cannot mess that up. read more

Delicious food and great service. I found everything very satisfying and their soups are amazing. The only problem I saw was it was a little pricey, but certainly worth it if you're treating yourself. read more

We came in after a hike at Staunton state park. Good food (we got the chicken pesto wrap and the mushroom burger), great beer (they carry locals and cider!). We got the mac'n cheese and sweet potato fries for sides - both delicious. Staff was friendly and attentive. read more

Amazing food and great service, I am not really fond of the bar atmosphere most of the time, but the people here and the food totally make it all worth it!! The mushroom burger is to die for! read more

Great food and service and excellent beer selection. Seems like a well managed place and the owner is often on site. This is currently our favorite hang out in Conifer. read more

Awesome place to eat. Easy in easy out. Great beer. Great venue. When in town a good place to stop. You won't be disappointed.

I came here with a large group. Sometimes even when you call ahead when you have a large group you still have to wait for tables and whatnot. They were well prepared though. We walked in and could easily see the tables already set up for us. Oddly, we did have to wait for menus, but that wasn't too bad. The waitress took our orders pretty quickly. The restaurant's power had gone out for a bit and they lost a lot of food so they didn't have a few menu items, but the waitress was good at working out other options or substitutions with everyone. The food took a LONG time, but like I said it was 20 ppl and they were just getting back up and running and had a lot of food substitutions for the missing ingredients. When it did come it was very good. The waitress never really came back to check on us after taking our order (someone else delivered the food). She came back when we were done and did a few drink refills (that had been needed for a while), but most of the meal she wasn't around. Its always hard to get really good service with one waitress and a big table so this is maybe understandable. All in all, even with the inattentive waitress, random food substitutions and long wait, the food was still good, the atmosphere was nice and open and it was a good time. read more

We stopped here on our way to camping in the mountains for the weekend. The atmosphere was updated and colorful. We were allowed to choose our own table. We nabbed a cozy booth. Our server was super sweet and attentive. We had some good draft beers: a seasonal pumpkin and a Guinness. One of the kiddos got their homemade root beer and it was rich an had a good licorice kick. The soup, carrot ginger, was outstanding, as was the turkey reuben. Both burgers were cooked perfectly and juicy. All the food was flavorful and freshly prepared. Would definitely stop here again when passing through. Note: our maps app had a hard time so we drove through the strip malls to find it, and so glad we did! read more

I don't eat here as they have no vegan options, but my GF eats the Mac and cheese occasionally. Only when she is pressed for options and has saved up the 20 dollars it cost to get Mac + seltzer water + tip. Overpriced and basic. read more

Stopped in for lunch and it was great! Had the French dip and it was delish! Roast beef was plentiful, tender, juicy, and so flavorful, as was the au jus. Comes w/a side and there were at least 4-5 choices. Chose the fries and they were crisp and The seasoning was awesome. The service was fast and friendly, the beer list was long w/lots of choices! Definitely going back...menu had lots of good sounding selections I wanna try read more

We love this place! The food is always good & the staff is always so friendly. Our favorite meal is definitely the meatloaf, I get it mostly every time. read more

$2.50 Shiner Bock!!!!!! Seems like a great place. Very open feeling in the dining room. It was very well lit and had a great view of the mountains. The owners were hard at work and very welcoming. Our waitress was very friendly and quite beautiful. I had the Reuben, was very good, and my mom had the Brooks burger, which was ok. Did I mention bottomless mimosas for breakfast?! Definitely going to be coming back. read more

First time to Brooks Tavern and we'll be back for the nice draft beer selection and tasty house made garbanzo bean patty! While the prices are moderate to high for lunch in my opinion; the menu has a great selection and suits vegetarians and meatatarians. read more

We live in Littleton, but have friends in Conifer and will occasionally dine at Brooks with them. We've never had any issues with food...always been good. Service (with the exception one very distracted and flighty young lady several months ago) has been good as well. We'll be back soon! read more

Delicious, flavorful, and great beer! Dedicated staff and hard working! Definitely $$! But worth it!

The pretzels and beer cheese appetizer is delicious! The service was quick, attentive and friendly. This was our first time visiting and it was a good experience overall. The prices were a little on the high side, but not unreasonable. read more

Everything was great besides the service, waited over 20 mins to get the check after our table was cleared
