amazing food and a side note my mother passed and I was kind of directionless train late, ride broke down and I had to wait Kennedy took care of everything and let me sit in a booth for two hours during breakfast she is an absolute godsend kudos all the way around read more

Great ambience! Stellar food & strong drinks. Highly recommended to anyone whom enjoys trains.

Besides just being a train station Denver's Union Station is also host to The Crawford Hotel, swanky bar, coffee, and local eateries. The building itself is gorgeously maintained and for most part very clean. read more

This station is small but nice. It was surprisingly clean and has a few bar, eateries, stores and an ice cream shop. They even have a pretty good splash pad outside that I saw a bunch of kids and adults alike frolicking in. The station services Amtrak and local rail and has a free shuttle that runs up and down 16th Street to bring you here. There is also outside dining there and benches to sit on and enjoy the day. They have a security presence there and I did not fell unsafe. The waiting area has some neat old style seating. It is really cool and tries to preserve the nostalgic look. They have trains that go all the way out to the airport. It is the less direct and more economical alternative to a cab or Uber. I think it costs about $10. I really like this station. It is very cozy and has a lot to offer. Even if you are not taking a train anywhere, it is still an excellent place to visit, get something to eat and hang out. I highly recommend making a stop here. read more

Oh Union, you really are one of the most beautiful buildings in Denver! The architecture and modern colors are truly what make this place great. The interior is open and spacious as well as a great place to come and hang out. There are two huge shuffleboards in the center which I think is super cool and fits the vibe to a t. I love that they do a little something for the holidays as well to fit the mood and time of year. Union is inviting to all people and offers some great food options and a couple small shops. There's something for anytime of day. Breakfast? Got it. Happy hour? Got it. Ice cream. They've got it. Looking for a new book? Tattered Cover has you covered. After mentioning all of the great things Union has to offer, of course I have to mention that this is THE train station hub. I've never had the opportunity to take a train out of Union, but it's certainly on my bucket list of things to do. If you're visiting Denver, come on down, grab a bite to eat and walk through this stunning building. read more

Denver Union Station - Halloween 2021 - Train Stations Near Me - Denver, Colorado

What a wonderful concept. You come to the Denver Union train station and you have a multitude of restaurants, eateries and bars at your disposal. In addition, the train station houses a well-known place to stay, The Crawford hotel, which has a well-known cocktail salon, called Cooper's lounge, that specializes in enhancing the cocktail experience. There are also others of the same, very close to but physically outside the train station. The atmosphere in the grand hall gives you a sense of grandeur. The lighting is perfect and the mood is relaxed. The decor takes you back decades, and is elegant. It is a place you want to be in. It is a place you want to be seen at. It is a place you do not want to leave. read more

One of the nicest and cleanest train stations I've seen. I came here for a breakfast spot located within area - had to wait in the space for a table . There are several places to grab food , small gift shops , bathrooms and couches to lounge in while you wait for Train, table . Security presence noted - who definitely make sure you don't put feet on coffee table or couches :) all good - rather it be taken care of rather than look like crap read more

A long overdue love letter to Denver's Living Room. Union Station was my introduction to Denver. It was the first place I had bookmarked. It sits directly in the heart of Downtown. It's a community gathering place. It's a representative taste of The Mile High City. The Great Hall is lined with history, from the Crawford Hotel to Cooper Lounge to the ins and outs of the building that none of us will ever see. Restaurants like Mercantile, Snooze and Ultreia have brought visitors from near and far. Like any public space, it's a beautiful and sometimes strange place to people watch. If you're reading this, you might see me check in here quite often. No, I don't work for Union Station. But I do work *at* Union Station. As a remote employee, I use Union as my idea and brainstorming work space. The WiFi is free and fast. During COVID, as long as you purchase food or drink from the surrounding businesses, you're allowed to sit as long as you'd like. You can usually catch me with a coffee or Americano from Pigtrain Coffee! On top of all of this, Union Station is still a functioning train station. I haven't been on a plane this year, though normally the $10.50 fare to the airport is a delight. It's a 35 minute ride from Union to DIA, plus you usually get some fun views along the way. This place means a lot to me. Pictures simply don't do it justice. If you haven't been, what in Blucifer's name are you waiting for? read more

My daughter wanted to visit Union Station. She has a picture of it in her place. Very interesting place to visit because there are a lot of different establishments inside of the station to visit. Ken told us everything we needed to know about the trains. When we asked his name and he said "Ken" I had to ask where was Barbie. :-). He said he had not been asked that in a long time. I bought my first Barbie in New York after riding to train there from Houston. Ken was extremely helpful, professional, knowledgeable and nice. Ten stars. read more

Cool old train station with some good places inside to eat. Denver Union Station is a historic place and important. This is where the trains come in to town. From the airport they stop you off here. There's lots of interesting things inside and outside. First there's a lot of history about the building. It was built in the 1800s when trains were the main way to get places. The station has some bad times when people starting driving and flying though. After awhile it got restored. There's now a few restaurants and shops. Outside there's still plenty of trains coming. The main train here is the one that goes to the airport, which is how most people are getting to Denver because the roads can suck. Also you can get to other places from here. There's busses and trains that go to suburbs like Boulder and other parts. Inside it's beautiful. It had an impressive main hall. The station is located near popular sites like Coors Field and shopping. read more

Union Station outside wise is beautiful and the inside is nice but I just can't see myself giving it 4 or 5 stars for a glorified sitting area. When you go inside, it's just some tiny bars/food places. There's one souvenir store and a pathway to amtrak. In the middle of the entire building are sofas, lounge chairs and tables. You can just chill and relax. What I did love about this place is the awesome terminal bar. You can just lounge around and get a beer or other alcohols and coffee from the outside. It's pretty cool. I like the idea of union Station but it's a sitting area. There's really no purpose in being there for hours. Lol read more

Beautiful place but terrible service. I love how beautiful and modern Denver Union Station is. It's just completely another higher echelon of train stations I've been to not just in the US but across the world. Usually one would expect a run down, smelly train station, but this one was wow...clean, modern..and fancy -- totally instagram worthy even! I boarded a roundtrip Amtrak train from the Union Station in the early morning to Winter Park (just a 2hr trip each way) and returning around 6pm the same evening. As the train was almost approaching the station on the way back, I decided to wait to go to a station in the bathroom because I didn't want to waste any more time in a train and want to be somewhere comfortable. On the way back, I looked for bathrooms inside the Union Station, saw someone walked pass the guard and into a restroom area without any problem, so I followed suit. the guard stopped me...and rudely told (more like scolded) me in a demeaning way (Iooking back, I felt like I was bring discriminated for him asking for my tickets when the person before me was able to walk into the restroom area without any checks) that I needed to be a customer. So I told him I AM a customer and asked him what he wanted me to show. He said abruptly ticket. So I pulled up an e-ticket of my Amtrak tickets that just arrived (round trip ticket that I got that day) for him to see. I think he was in disbelief that I was a customer (I was wearing a ski pants and ski jacket because I just came back from Winter Park!). His voice was rude..and said I could go in. As I walked in, he was rude..he said behind my back and shouted something along the line of "don't ever come back again!" I was then pretty stirred up because I was able to produce a round trip ticket that caused me to be in the train station to begin with and I wasn't doing anything wrong..so I said..what are you talking about, I AM a customer!" As I came out of the restroom, I saw again that he let a few people come in without asking them for a ticket. So, being pretty pissed, I walked right up behind him and said..."you are not going to check their ticket?". He turned around...and I asked..."What is your name?" (honestly, I was pretty pissed that he totally treated me so discriminatorily. I guess that pissed him off. He mumbled something like if I don't leave..he will put me in jail?!?! Dang, as a small Asian female visitor and traveler who had been so many places around the US..and frankly the world..I've never felt so small and discriminated so much in my life. This one topped the top 3 worst experience ever! I really wished I could get the guard's name. It was just so unacceptable to have this sort of person do this to other people who didn't do anything wrong abd un-provokingly. Otherwise, the station was great! The experience i had with a guard/security person in the evening once I got back from Winter Park totally ruined my experience there though. read more

We booked a tour with Rocky Mountaineer and our hotel ended up being in Union Station. Our guide from the train station to the hotel told us this place was in disrepair and was going to be torn down until some locals fought to save it. It's just a cool place, with restaurants, shops, the hotel, and oh yes, an actual train station. We read that this place is often referred to as Denver's living room, a great place to people watch. Our hotel stay included free coffee, free ice cream, and free drinks, so we patronized several of the establishments while taking advantage of our offers. We also walked around the area during the day and felt safe. read more

Gorgeous train station abuzz with all kinds of activity. There's something here for everyone. Outdoor patios dot the exterior, with cafes and sandwich shops open for a quick bite. There's two main bars, the ground floor of the Terminal and a $$$$ bar space above it that serves five star cocktails. Inside the station there's plenty of seating, and floor chargers for people working or creating on the go. Custodians keep the place clean and tidy. Vintage luggage, chairs and decor give this a whole retro vibe and I love it. For Amtrak passengers, there's a luggage storage service. Several restaurants have entrances accessible from the station interior. Union Station has buses, Amtrak, and RTD trains connect from here. RTA Tickets are easy to purchase from the vending machine, or purchase using the free RTD app. Outside, children weaved in and out of fountains in front of the station. Around the station, I saw a couple taking wedding photos. A beautiful photography spot. Union Station is a community asset and Denver clearly is proud of this beautiful historic masterpiece. read more

During our vacation in Denver, we of course had to make a visit to this landmark. From what I understand, this station has been around since the late 1800s and has been serving it's purpose ever since. There's a historical information plaque to read at one of the main entrances for anyone interested. There's many shops here, a café, Milkbox Ice Creamery, Ultreia Portuguese restaurant, Terminal bar, the Pigtrain Coffee Company, other restaurants, etc. I had my first eggnog café latte here (from the pigtrain coffee company) and it was delicious! I also had a taste of their black forest hot cocoa. That was the most delicious version of hot cocoa I've ever had. It was a nice stop after walking for miles around the city (or beforehand). We visited here on different days. Relaxing in the main area, I enjoyed people watching and admiring the architecture. It was worth the visit. read more

There are also some cute stores you can walk around, a book store, and a flower shop open on certain days.

I have traveled far and wide to make it to the famous Denver Union Station. Well... not really but it did inspire my latest trip to Denver. Being from California our public transportation is def not as smooth as the Colorado metro. We literally stepped out of the airport and was led to the metro to enjoy a 40 min or so train ride to Union Station. The ride it self was great, we were able to relax a little and enjoy the scenic route. When we arrived we hopped off the metro to be led to this beautiful historic building that ended up being very modern on the inside. Every single corner was filled with a trendy bar, restaurant, coffee shop or dessert stand. The atmosphere is amazing. I loved walking around, or just taking a seat to enjoy everything that the Union Station had to offer. read more

The place is very clean and not the biggest train station I have been to but definitely one of the cleanest. I came back from a full-day tour and it was early evening. I came in to look for a hot meal to take with me. I circled around twice looking and searching but nothing called out to me. I decided to give up, use the bathroom and then get on the RTD to go back to the hotel. You would not know that you have to be a patron of the Crawford Hotel, Amtrak or Union Station to use the bathroom unless you go to the FAQs on on the website under CODE OF CONDUCT! Are you kidding me??? Seriously who looks for stuff like that? If there's a bathroom and you have to go most places will either have a sign that says for customers only or they will let you use the bathroom and not guard it's like it is Fort Knox. Obviously Denver PD had to read it and enforce it! The cute Denver PD guy would not let me use the restroom. Said I have to buy something, even water! I had a good portion of water so why should I buy more? I told him I have a valid RTD ticket but obviously they don't count! Dude, how about watching for serious crime instead of micromanaging the restrooms! I was really turned off by this. Seriously, most people are nice and if you have to go they will let you!!! read more

I never get tired of visiting Denver Union Station. The atmosphere and architecture is so so beautiful, and the holiday decorations are surreal because of how much thought and effort they put into it. They have lots of shops and tables to sit.

Definitely one of the most beautiful train stations I've ever visited. read more

I finally had an opportunity to check out Union Station after living in the Denver metro area for several years. So glad I took the time to visit. Parking is something to keep in mind before you visit. I used a nearby parking garage (across from Union Station) and it was expensive! I believe it costed me $10 for an hour of usage. Overall, I recommend doing some planning before you visit. I enjoyed my visit to Union Station. It's a great place to people watch and just immerse oneself into the experience of visiting. There is a coffee shop and other restaurants inside. They also have a bar in one of the restaurants. There also some stores to browse around and shop. They have a Tattered Cover Bookstore as well! There is also a water fountain outside where children may play. I recommend visiting here if you're a tourist or resident. This is a great piece of history in Denver. read more

Took a walk to the union station. A very cute place. There is a hotel inside the station which I thought was awesome. Not sure I've seen that before nor maybe just never noticed it before. There are places to eat and drink and of course just seats you can sit and wait for your train to arrive. I mainly saw business people which made sense since it was on a weekday. I would have liked to sit and have a drink at the station and people watch. We were on a time crunch and it wasn't an option at the time. The decor in the station is really neat. It has a warm Christmas feeling minus all the Christmas decorations (since it's not Christmas season). It appears to be safe and roaming around even alone (if you are new to town and just want to walk around and explore) would be fine from what I can see. read more

There was a small farmer's market on Saturday morning. Small however, some nice little vendors with delicious breakfast or brunch snacks..

Absolutely beautiful renovation of an old space, Denver's Union Station has had new breath breathed into it. Looking more like a food hall than a train station nowadays, this place has something unique for every interest. If you are not looking for food, no worries. You can still catch the train here but can also do some shopping or stay overnight at one of the posh hotels close by. The beautiful architecture and beauty of the building has been preserved but also updated and revamped. I really liked the living room feeling that this place gives off, no wonder it carries the nickname "Denver's Living Room". Very spacious, inviting, and comforting. We took the train to and from the airport from this location and definitely spent some time sitting and people watching here. Cool space to see while in Denver, I wish more cities would utilize their older buildings in smarter ways like this. Very iconic and unique piece of Denver. read more
