It's nestled in a bustling neighborhood and it's the perfect place to grab an after dinner drink, an afternoon happy hour cocktail, or just to go and hang out on a nice day. The Englewood Grand, though offering many different kinds of liquor, is essentially a whiskey bar. The bartenders are super knowledgeable about varieties, brands, and drinks and even have their own house made assortments and mixers. As a Rye drinker, I appreciate that there is an option for happy hour. It's dimly lit and has a prohibition vibe without being stuffy. My 2 most favorite things about this place however, are the selection of music and video that are playing when I come in. There is usually modern punk or alternative playing on the speakers as old black and white films or b-horror movies accompany your visit. Something to try if you haven't yet!

My group and I were even given our first round on the house which was super nice. I enjoyed the nitro blend the best, although after a second visit I don't think that Kava is for me. I would definitely still go here though because my friends do enjoy it and the vibe inside is really unique. A bit of an unusual crowd inside but everyone that we encountered was extremely friendly. The decor reminds me of a Florida vibe in the heart of Denver which is a nice reminder of home. One of my favorite things is that they have a variety of board games to play so the 2 times I went, we spent hours playing games. If you're looking for a chill spot to relax, this is a great place to kick it.

They are family and they treat you like family or a family friend. It's good home cooking, like your mom would make, if she was a chef! Delicious food with generous portions, with a very limited menu. But the real deal is the nightly meal selection that changes every night. The music is top notch, usually a live band or two per week, arts and crafts events, just about everything a family place would do together. Oh, there's an art studio next door, a patio, a jukebox, every Bronco, Rockies, Nuggets, Avalanche, college game is usually on one of the tv's. It's a great neighborhood asset, if you're looking for trendy of fake, head someplace else, this probably is not the place for you.

I ordered the Speed Queen (their espresso martini twist) -- bold and balanced. Bob had the Garden Bloody Mary, and Jeremiah went with a custom hot coffee cocktail crafted with help from our fantastic server, Megan. For brunch, the Cowboy Quiche had an incredibly flaky crust with potatoes and green chile (I added beef birria -- worth it). The chorizo breakfast tacos were also a hit. The vibe is warm and eclectic with a subtle goldfinch theme, plus they host DJs and events throughout the week and offer patio seating for warmer months.

Holy cannoli, if you haven't been to this place you are missing out! Next level atmosphere that will make you feel fancy! I love a place that makes me feel like I walked into a hip, invitation only, upscale environment! But guess what no invite or reservation necessary! Oh, and free parking! Show up with pals and hang out in the outdoor covered space or at the inside cozy tables with swivel chairs like you wish you had at home! They have some more private smaller seating areas kinda in a corner if you need to discuss hot topics over a cocktail or beer. They do serve food which I will go back and try one day. When I showed up I just wanted a cool drink and the cucumber refresher was so what I needed to keep my energy up on a hot day! We had a friendly, nice waitress that moved here recently from Arkansas. Definitely would sit in her section next time I visit! I really have to start taking names because no matter where I go around Colorado the people are awesome!
