We came for the brunch. Pros: waitress was awesome. Super friendly and accommodating. The lavender beignets and cinnamon rolls were ok. First round of beignets were raw dough. They replaced and comped, so all good. Bacon and eggs were average. This is a new offer for them so nowhere to go but up. We'll keep trying. read more

I would recommend this place! I had the nachos and bone in wings, both were very good. They have a great selection of non-alcohol cocktails as well. The wings had a lot of meat on them and the flavor was good. The nachos were super favorable. Kudos to the chef! read more

I've eaten at Bucket List Tavern a couple of times, and I think the food is excellent! What a great stop before or after seeing a movie. We were very happy with everything we ordered, and the service is good! read more

The service was good, but slow. The food was just okay. Nothing seemed special. The place was clean and decorated well. We will give another try in a few months. read more

We stopped in before a movie, and the service was slow and mediocre at best. The food was so bland! I had the chili, absolutely no flavor, only had heat, hubbie had spicy chicken sandwich, again no flavor or spice. Ambiance is nice, great place for a cocktail before a movie. I would NOT recommend the food! read more

Great food and service. Good spot although parking can sometimes overflow to the amc side

The food is outstanding and the service is excellent! Everything we have ordered on the menu has been delicious. The atmosphere is great too and there are plenty of tv's. A few favorites so far: nachos, the pretzel, the spinach dip, the Bourbon Bacon Burger is probably my favorite entree, but you can't go wrong with the wings, the beef dip or the bourbon bacon flat bread. We are looking forward to the new items that will be added to the menu a couple times a year, along with the specials they will offer different times a year. I highly recommend making a visit! read more

The food was sincerely not good. My husband and I got burgers and they mixed the meat temps up. The veggies on the burgers were cut so large it was like biting into a whole tomato and whole onion and the top bun was burnt to a crisp - that in combination with the wrong meat temp made it truly uneatable. The spinach dip was completely flavorless and the sides to dip in it smelt of maybe propane? Also, everything was very overpriced (it's fine to charge more for quality - this was not the case). The server was very nice, thus the 2 stars. read more

Our first time visiting here and we had the nachos with chicken and they were so good! Our server Giles was so friendly and attentive and made our experience so much better. We are definitely returning soon. read more

Third time here for lunch and continued excellent food and service. Fries are fresh and hot and nice & crisp. Nice onion rings on BBQ burger. Not skimply on the portion side. The lunch pizza/soup or salad deal is a great bargain. Sunday brunch starting in late May along with patio entertainment on weekends. Well worth giving it a try! read more

We really enjoyed the food! I had the French dip and my husband had the gumbo. Fry's were tasty too! Definitely coming back.

Our visit here was a pleasant surprise. The hostess was extremely friendly and made us feel genuinely welcomed. We were seated very quickly. Our server was not as engaging and seemed a bit off but was attentive. We found the seating to be comfortable, the orders were taken quickly, and the food arrived promptly. The music was too loud for us to talk although halfway through the meal the volume was lowered and that made our experience even better. Our appetizer was not what we ordered but we were starving so we ate it without complaint. But the dinner was really good. My Triple Bs burger was fantastic, a great melding of flavors, even though it was cooked well done and I ordered it medium. The Mile High Chocolate Surprise was a satisfying end to our meal. The prices seemed a bit high for what we received. Still, we enjoyed this addition to Castle Rock's restaurant scene and recommend it to others. read more

See all

Went here to eat with the family for the first time. We Didn't know what to expect. Warren didn't a great job. Super friendly. The food turned out to be amazing. We will be back for sure. Everything was delicious. The truffle fries were incredible. French dip was good. The flatbread bacon bourban was insane. The spicy loaded blt was also incredible...loved it all. Wings were good also. read more

As first time guests at this relatively new dining establishment, my wife and I were somewhat cautious regarding our expectations. Any questions regarding service and food quality were soon dispelled. We were immediately greeted with an enthusiastic "hello" and a welcoming smile by our hostess, who also accommodated our request for a standard table - the only one available - versus several unoccupied high-tops. Sierra(sp?), the wait-staff member assigned to our table was quick to acknowledge our presence while immediately providing menus (food & libations), cloth napkins and utensils. She brought us water while we waited for the other couple who had yet to join us. Despite a busy lunch crowd, Sierra was very attentive and answered menu questions throughly and enthusiastically sharing her favorites with us (Bourbon Bacon Burger & Beef Dip, which they had just run out of). Two of us, including myself ordered the Bourbon Bacon Burger with fries - one truffle, one regular. The other two ordered the Spicy Colossal BLT - one with fries and the other with seasonal fruit. The portions were substantial leaving all of us with no room for dessert at the end of our meals. We deemed prices quite reasonable for the quality and quantity of food received as well as the outstanding service level afforded us at this casual, yet comfortable, dining establishment. It will be a regular stop for us in the future. read more

Beers were flat, I told both the waitress and the hostess, no remedy just took one beer off my tab. I told them how to correct the prob by turning up the CO2, but my words fell on deaf ears. Service was slow, don't think I will go back. read more

I don't like giving poor reviews, but our experience was very disappointing. Obviously our food had been camping out under the warming lights for a good while. The top of the burger bun was hard and dry and the salmon had a hard crust over it that wasn't edible. Underneath the tough skin was a good flavor and the mashed potatoes were good. Asparagus stringy and much of it had to be spit out. To add to the unpleasant food experience, 2 long tables of groups were loud, as groups are, and positioned right next to our table, forcing us to be a part of the noise, so we just ate quietly as it was hard to have a conversation. Overall it was an experience not to be repeated. read more

Service was just ok. They were slow but i feel the server was more worried about her cleaning duties then serving the customer even though we were still two hours before closing time.. Lets just blame that on being young and learning the business so not really upset about it to much. Ok so lets talk about the menu thats on line and in the restaurant. The burgers say they come with a side including truffle fries. Not true they charge you 2.95 for the truffle fries. Its an upcharge even though no where on the menu does sot mention it. So their response is they haven't updated the menu so they took six dollars off of three bugers. Ok so they hosed me for lets say three dollars. Its the principle. Its not hard to take three truffle fryoff as easily as it was for you to charge me for them. Probably wont go back even though the burger was good. Cmon Bucketlist do whats right instead of saving a couple of bucks. Geez!!!!!! read more

great new neighborhood restaurant and bar service is great let's support our local family owned businesses great wings , salads and apps SVB read more

Received sub par service when it was slow, ordered nachos and received rock hard chicken that was charred and inedible, waitress told us she would comp the fries and bring us new ones and then charged us for the new ones, second fries received had hard unknown pieces of green and my husband found a hair. Very disappointing and will not be returning. read more

Terrible service. 30 + minutes and wasn't asked if I wanted to order food or another beverage. Bartender was busy talking. Tall blonde was the bartender. I will not be back!!! read more

The service was very good! Our server was attentive and friendly... The food on the other hand. Husband ordered a beef dip sandwich, the meat was soooo chewy had to actual spit it out in a napkin. One and done! It's just disappointing when when you spend money on going out to dinner and it's just not good! Won't be going back. I ordered the Nachos, again, the meat chewy! Guess they order low quality of meat? read more

After waiting at the bar at lunch time for a cold beer for 10 minutes - no bartender, tons of employees walking around. I move myself over to a table thinking someone would see me there. Sat there for another 5 minutes... employees walking all around, nobody gave me any eye contact, nobody said we'll be right with you, nobody said anything to me. As a middle-aged single woman I guess they thought I had nothing to offer or something? No greeter at the door, no bartender behind the bar, the place was mostly empty too. I left and went right across the street to the Library bar and grill, where customer service is king, the food is terrific and well priced and the beer is freezing cold. I'll never be back to the Bucket List, and will tell everyone I know the same. For a relatively new place in an area where I know the rent must be exorbitant, you'd think they would bend over backwards to make sure that it was a giant success. School your employees on what customer service means, and maybe have a greeter at the door at all times. I was in on a Saturday at 12:45 lunch time. Again, this place was mostly empty and the Library was packed with people, where I still got terrific service immediately. read more

Cool spot, yummy boneless wings and beers! Good place to chill with friends or catch a game!

First time we tried this place was at noon on a Thursday. There were probably 4-5 other tables. Took the waitress 10 minutes to even come over, 10 minutes after that we finally got our drinks. Friday night don't bother. Took us 45-60 minutes to get our food. Mind you we ordered wings and a side of fries. When they finally came everything was lukewarm. Told the waiter and the owner and they suggested the employee discount, which we refused as we were going to eat the food anyways as we all were starving. $90+ dollars later we left. 5 beers and 24 wings later. BTW, the boneless wings are out of a frozen bag with some shelf bought wing sauce. Last time you guys see it money. Good luck! read more

Service, food, and ambience are great. We love having a place closer to our neighborhood with a fun vibe.

Flavors are on point! I got nachos as an entree and the elevated nachos were great. Flavors were amazing, I would only ding it because the chips got soggy by the end. Probably would be perfect if it was shared and ate faster. We got the truffle fries with a side of garlic aioli and it was a 5 out of 5. We got chicken tenders for our 4 year old and they weren't anything special but she really liked them. My husband got the beef sandwich and again flavor was 5 out of 5. The bread got a little soggy but the beef was moist and great. Totally recommend this place. read more

This restaurant seemed to be opened by someone who has no experience? The Cobb Salad came with Ranch instead of Blue Cheese? My Caesar Salad was ok, but used shredded romaine lettuce. Don't use " fancy ketchup," spring for Heinz it makes you look cheap. Finally, was there an ice shortage? Our drinks came with maybe five cubes each, and we ask for additional ice two times and were brought little cups of ice. I felt like it did when I lived in Europe. I asked for their version of French Dip and the waiter informed me it was "still frozen." So, you are selling me frozen food and charging these prices? I am sorry but just not your best value in Castle Rock. read more

The Bucket List Tavern should never be on anyone's list. Let me begin by saying the service was ok. Our waitress was sweet but service was slow. The food was bad and overcooked. We ordered chicken wings for an appetizer...... they were overcooked. My husband ordered the Nashville Hot chicken sandwich. It was overcooked, actually hard as a rock. My ribeye steak was possibly one of the worst ones I have ever had. Cooked fine as far as medium rare but possibly the toughest piece of meat I've ever had at a restaurant. I wanted to like this place which is why I'm giving them 2 stars instead of 1. But honestly they deserve 1. I know they are new but we will not be back and we DO NOT recommend. As far as the ambiance goes, it was loud, but it's a tavern....hello!! That didn't bother us too much. But sitting by the door to the patio with the wind blowing in every time it was opened was pretty annoying. Honestly, I am not hard to please!! But I wish I'd gone to Sam's and bought frozen food. It would have been a lot better!! read more
