The food here was delicious and ready quickly! It was really fun to have some bbq before our concert. However, it was quite pricey. I'd eat here again for a special treat read more

We came here for the SubUrban/Reaper concert. I emailed their info line as my daughter, who was also going to the concert, was in a knee brace and I wanted to check if they could assist with accommodating her. Sean, the assistant manager, responded quickly and offered to set up a bar stool for her to enjoy the show with or to section off an area in which we could bring a wheelchair for her. They were very nice. We arrived early and ordered the brisket. The food was pretty good and the bar staff was super nice. The bathrooms were clean and we had a really good time. Being my daughter's first concert, this was an awesome place for her to see her favorite band, intimate venue with a great staff and the concert goers weren't all crazy. We had a great time and my daughter loved her first concert experience, even with her knee brace. Thanks to the Globe Hall team for making it a great experience! read more

Ambience, service, all the things! Had a great time! Definitely will be back for another show

As a lover of live music, it can be frustrating to find a venue that checks all the boxes for me: easy/free parking, friendly staff, fair prices (for tickets and drinks), easy to get to, good sound. Well, thankfully there is Globe Hall! I've seen two shows now here but it's enough that it's become one of, if not my favorite, venues in Denver. My first visit was back in 2019 for The Beths - I was blown away by how intimate the venue is and the smoothness of having the bar and restaurant on one side, and the venue on the other (complete with a small bar in the venue side too) The band were running their own merch table which just gave the whole thing a really "small/intimate show" vibe. That show was in July and the room was a little warm, but that's to be expected with an older building. More recently, I saw The Lemon Twigs on a cold/snowy November night. Parking a block away was not only easy but FREE! How rare/cool is that?! I got there about 20 minutes after doors and not only found a parking spot right away, but there was no line to get in. The person at the door was very friendly and got my ticket right away. I grabbed a really decently priced beer from the bar courtesy of a friendly bartender and moved into the venue side. Being there half an hour after doors and before the opener, I was able to stand literally front and center! The room felt comfortable and not too packed. The show itself was amazing - while the opener didn't have the best sound, when the Lemon Twigs came out they fine tuned their mix and sounded absolutely fantastic. The vibes at Globe Hall are just perfect - intimate venue, incredibly friendly staff, good prices, easy parking. I can't wait to go back! read more

So this casual little dining spot is tucked away in the Glowville neighborhood of Denver. It's got a phenomenal little rustic ambience with brick walls, a tin roof and a concert venue. The art is lively and inspiring. But the food is off the chain. My boyfriend and I came here for barbecue and concert. We also came during restaurant week. All the food we got was only $35 total for two people. The value is amazing here and the food is on par with Texas barbecue. The brisket is really the highlight. We were blown away by how tender it was and how the fat just literally melted in your mouth. Everything was seasoned so well. The pulled pork was very moist. The mac & cheese was so cheesy in flavor and I love the coleslaw. I think it's my new favorite in Denver. The fried okra, though is seasoned perfectly fried perfectly, and knocked my socks off. And the meat does not need sauce but the sauce on the table has a bright after spice and is destinkinglicious!!! The bar is a full bar, and they have several specialty cocktails to choose from. I got the Globe Spritz and it did the trick. I highly recommend this spot whether you're coming for a show or not. It's definitely a Denver treat. Come sit and eat or get it to go. You'll love it! read more

Live music performances and their BBQ is absolutely amazing and will be coming back for the amazing experience and food! However 4/5 because they only had 1 bartender on a busy show night and the establishment here shouldn't be putting their bartender under this much stress! She was absolutely badass and killing it but like guys.... Put some more bartenders up there! Took forever to get drinks cause of it, faulting the establishment for it though... bartender was still great! Great place for chill vibes and friendly atmosphere! read more

Came to see Kade Hoffman and try the BBQ before hand. So glad we did! The sampler was a great deal and definitely recommend to get all the flavors. The women checking at the door were cool and the venue was intimate with amazing sound! My kind of spot to see great music. So glad someone puts the resources into Globe Hall to make it special. I'll be back! read more

As soon as I set foot inside Globe Hall, I was a fan. I said to my buddy, "this reminds me of Lost Lake." Turns out they're owned by the same people who run Lost Lake and Larimer Lounge. Yes, I'm tooting my own observations skills! Let's set the record straight, Globe Hall is a live music venue with a BBQ-geared restaurant and cocktail bar. Not the other way around. And for a live music venue serving food, they do a bang up job. Get the tots. They serve them with ranch so you don't have to ask for it. Touché. The bar itself boasts a killer brick wall. Like Lost Lake, they have a surprisingly great bottle list. Or get a beer in a can. Choose your own adventure. They even have a nice selection of draft beers. In the adjoining room is the live music venue. Relative in size to Hi-Dive at first glance. Last Friday I saw the mighty Baroness and they sounded stellar. And if a band you've been listening to for years sounds like you want them to sound, you have to give credit to the room they're playing in. The weirdest thing about Globe Hall is that this is the first show I've seen here in the three years I've lived here. I've been to Ogden, Bluebird, Gothic, Hi-Dive, Larimer Lounge, you name it. But I'm curious why similar sized bands don't come through here specifically. Baroness was the first band I recognized on their calendar of events. If you can't tell, I'd welcome any band here at Globe Hall. It's great for more intimate shows between the 200-300 range. Next time, I'll see what the BBQ is all about! read more

First time visiting Denver, and I went to see The Two Lips last night. Everyone I've met in Denver so far has been incredibly friendly--until last night. I had a great time at the show, but the bartender (specifically the woman with the shaved head) was surprisingly rude when I asked a simple question. I usually try to give people the benefit of the doubt and assume they're just having a bad day, but if you don't enjoy interacting with people, bartending might not be the right job. read more

This should be a five star review. This is a five star place. The ambience, music, and food were wonderful. It is so unique and great. Truly a gem in Denver. The service was absolutely beyond horrible. I don't think in my 37 years in Denver I have ever dealt with such assholery. I have one comment for the bar tenders/bouncers (especially the long-haired red head and the half-shaven head female gal), don't work in the service industry. We were 100% sober and nice and I've never been treated that way. Find a new job and let this place be as awesome as it could be without you. Read all the reviews and you will see that the negativity it not about the place itself. It's a very cool place! read more

What a great time here seeing Deep Sea Diver the other night! I had never been to this awesome venue in Denver's Globeville neighborhood. It's right off the highway but tucked in so well, you might miss it! In fact, no less than three groups outside all asked me if this was the right place. It's got a lot of charm inside and out. The bar and food area take up most of the front room, with ample seating and a warm, light atmosphere. Parking was on the street a few blocks down. The staff was all nice and checked our covid materials for the concert. There was another bar inside the theater, so don't feel like you have to order right away! The main concert hall is nice and pretty large, but still small enough to enjoy a very intimate setting. It's got all the feel of a dive bar, but puts out some great acts and top sound. Love the many lights and fog machine. Out back, there's a really cool patio and artist shed. Definitely feels like a real authentic dig, not some new establishment venue. I'll definitely be back soon, just for the food next! read more

This is a food review since it was the first time I had their BBQ - I've been to the venue multiple times and have always had a good time. I opted for the BBQ brisket tacos and my wife got the brisket sandwich with tots. I had a bite of her sando and it was very good with a nice toasted brioche bun. My 3 tacos were substantial, full of tasty smoked brisket in soft flour tortillas. Being from eastern NM, I am no stranger to eating bbq in a tortilla, so this reminded me a bit of home. Their sauce was slightly sweet with black peppery flavor that I enjoyed quite a bit. The salsa was take it or leave it for me and I wish the cheese would have been melted, but the bbq meat/sauce was the star of the show anyway. If it was a bit warmer we would have taken our food out to the roomy back patio - the bar area is quite small. Overall, it was nice getting to the venue a bit early and having some quality bbq and a cold one. read more

Food review only! Awesome, small BBQ joint! This place has a dive-y, hole-in-the-wall feel. We went here early on a Friday night for dinner around 5. It was not busy at all and we were able to park on the street right in front. There were a lot of workers there preparing for a busy night with a show. We ordered drinks and food from the bartender and he gave us a buzzer. When the buzzer went off we picked our food up at the kitchen window. Everything on the Classic BBQ platter was delicious! We were very impressed. We have a smoker and enjoy smoking our own meats so, we are a little picky. The pulled pork was excellent, the brisket was ok. The brisket did not have much seasoning or flavor. Also, we got a very marbled/fatty cut of the brisket. Some people like the fatty cuts but, I prefer the less marbled pieces. The brisket did have a nice bark and smoke ring on it though. All of the sides were great. The cole slaw and potato salad were both fresh, flavorful and not soggy or mushy at all! We will definitely return here again for more BBQ! read more

Caveat: If our original and final bartender wasn't so amazing, and if we hadn't been in town to see Ward Davis - who has played there before and we would like to play there again - this would be a "zero star" review. Parking was easy after we figured out where it was located. We arrived a little under an hour before doors were to open for a show with two openers and the headliner. Crowd was decent - not too big, not too small. Our bartender - Sydney? - was from North Carolina and she was outstanding in every way. Attentive, personable, friendly with all of the patrons. She chatted just enough, but not too much. Had great recommendations for everyone who asked. All we ordered for food was fries. They were good/hot/fast - but kinda hard to mess that up. We'd like to go back and try more food sometime. We live in Arizona and have a lot of similar venues here. Food/booze outside, bands inside another room. Colorado crowds are just better. Everyone listened to the music - even openers - without talking over them. No rowdy, shoving drunks. It was a cool vibe. To the lady bartender/venue manager/whoever you are who treated me like a drunk (I had soda and one cocktail) when I went out when Ward was on... you know who you are. You're worthless - and I hope they fire you. read more

This is a great little music venue. The BBQ is great and it was easy to make a same-day reservation online to grab some grub before the show. I didn't love the jackfruit tacos, but the pulled pork and chicken were great. The venue is small and standing room only. Wear your comfy shoes. And, it is a flat floor. So, if you are short, you'll want to get in when doors open to get a good spot to see the stage. I found myself behind tall folks and had to tip toe to see Donny Benet. But, lesson learned for next time. They have two bars, one inside the venue and one in the lobby/restaurant area. Full bar, decent taps and several tall boys of both beer and seltzer. Tickets are cheap. Parking is challenging. Give yourself extra time to hunt for parking or Uber. read more

We loved the BBQ at globe hall! Was going to a show and running a bit behind schedule and figured it would be easiest to eat there. Food came out quick and prices were great! Definitely recommend. read more

What I found cool about this place was the separation between the bar and the concert venue. We went to see the Brummies, and I could go to bar area to watch the Nuggets, or go through a door into the concert. Really cool vibe, and it reminds me of Moe's BBQ in Littleton. Great place to check out bands but also talk to your friends. Not much around the place, but hit up Blue Moon or River before if you need a pre-party, and the walk is fun. I really, really like this place and will check out their events schedule moving forward. read more

The skinny: Okay bbq in a small concert venue. Atmosphere: Unassuming spot in kinda an off the beaten path neighborhood. Order at the bar, seat yourself. A few long tables and bar seating. Went before a concert and it was starting to get a bit busy. You have to go into the restaurant to go to the concert venue, so it can get a bit packed if people are waiting to get in. Not really as 'hole in the wall' that other people have mentioned - I thought it was a decent spot. Concert venue is nothing special and small but made for a nice intimate setting. Food: Had the brisket and a side of potato salad. The brisket lacked a bit of flavor, parts of it were juicy but parts of it seemed a bit dry. The bbq sauce is pretty good which gives it a bit more flavor. A bit disappointed by the potato salad, its pretty soupy - but to be fair they do call it creamy potato salad. Overall, expected more given the great reviews but left feeling underwhelmed. Think there are better bbq spots in denver but not a terrible spot for some food before a concert. Service: Food came extremely fast Price/value: $$ you can control your own portions and order by the quarter pound for meats. Sides are $3 each. Would I come back: Probably not with much better places for BBQ. Maybe for a beer before a concert in the venue but wouldn't go out of my way. read more

Barbecue was delicious and a fun intimate concert venue. Really enjoyed our night out at Globe Hall!

What a fabulous little music venue! Loved the intimate indoor venue space. I did not get a chance to try their bbq, but am looking forward to it next time! Street parking can get busy, so arrive early and enjoy good vibes on the back patio! read more

Globe Hall has a really intimate setting and it was very enjoyable! I appreciate that you can get food and drinks and then watch shows because I'm always thirsty/hungry at concerts. The chicken tenders were actually pleasingly spicy and the tots were better than the average tot!! They have a wide array of drinks and I like that there is seating. read more

This place used to be amazing but has gone so downhill. The women working there are horrid and so rude. And how does a BBQ place run out of brisket within 15 min of opening? It is sad that such a cool space is ruined. read more

Friendly little place with a nice drink selection and good sound on the venue half. Low key atmosphere provided perfect vibes for a Jade Bird show. read more

Perhaps the true taste test of good food is during a pandemic. There's no interference from the atmosphere, or the music or even the location. We judge the food because we pick it up, take it home, eat it. A friend recommended Globe Hall for good bbq. So glad she did. We picked up yummy cole slaw, delicious potato salad, and... great bbq chicken! We will be back. Looking forward to the time when we can stay and eat. read more

Ok so the BBQ was ok. Don't even compare it to Texas though. No real smoke ring and it don't have that char at all. AThe brisket was tender but I found the pork a little dry. The potato salad was very soupy but had a good flavor. As the concert portion well it sounds ok but apparently the owner doesn't understand it's a weekday and everyone doesn't want to wait till midnight to see the headliner. I feel it's a ploy to get people to buy more alcohol while they all wait for the band forever. Keep that in mind. Doors 830 band 11:15. Total bs on a weeknight. Staff was good and so we're drinks. Timing was just off read more

Great BBQ and a even cooler venue/stage area! Highly recommend catching a show here and the brisket!

I've been to the Globe twice now, and had a great time each time. I love the ambiance in the bar area, which has an updated feel to it and doubles as a BBQ joint. It's on the small side but doesn't usually get uncomfortable. I've watched 2 live shows now, and the sound quality for the room is impressive. Had a great time! My only regret was not trying the BBQ yet, which is normally high on my list to do. Cheers! read more

I lived near Globe Hall when it opened but never ventured in, thinking I'd need show tickets to eat or drink there. Finally committed to seeing a show, and now I understand how it works. There's a bar area that reminds me of an old VFW hangout, complete with wood paneling. The drinks are fancier than the bars where my grandpa hung out, though. My husband LOVED his spicy margarita. We also ordered some barbecue from the bartender and picked it up at the kitchen window. They were out of brisket, but I'll be back to try it. My chicken was good, but the pork was excellent. I like their sauces--one was vinegar-y and not too sweet. After eating we headed into the small concert hall (capacity 188) to see a band that I'd never seen before a crowd of fewer than a few thousand people. There were some serious issues with the sound, some of which were resolved. In the end I had a great time since it was a great band that puts on a terrific show no matter what the challenges. I'll definitely be back for dinner again. If a band I really love books the venue, I'd consider taking a chance on the sound system again. read more

Ordered the Mac and cheese and it was atrocious. There's almost literally no flavor. And why does the chef put paprika on it? It's not even on the menu. Doors opened at 6pm for the show and the headliner's not coming on until 10pm. It's like they're desperate to sell you their substandard food. I paid for $4.75 for this. read more

Can't say much about the experience here, as I only came during the day for food, not for music. We got the two entree BBQ platter. Food was bland, and it was pretty pricey for how little we got. We couldnt even finish it because it wasnt very good. We took some serving trays to put our utensils and bread/butter on. After we took the trays, and had been eating off them, the waitress told us they were all dirty. Not sure why dirty trays were set out and stacked as if they were clean for people to grab. Won't be coming back here for the food. Might give it another shot for a concert. read more

Update: Went to a show last night and the turkey sandwich was virtually inedible. Burnt ends apply to brisket, not turkey, and the only flavor was salt. The replacement turkey was just as bad. Ended up throwing it away. Seemed understaffed for an early sold out show night and chaotic knowing going to be busy. Taking it down a star-notch. Love the room, love the staff, love the patio, love the que, love the drink selection and prices. BUT...they need to get some ventilation or undersell shows because the room is borderline dangerously hot and it's only April. read more

I've had takeout twice from Globe Hall now, and I really want to love this place-- the roadhousey atmosphere is great, for starters. And some of the food is very good, too! E.g.: the ribs were pretty excellent both times, with a good rub, smoked well. The brisket is okay (last time it was a little oversmoked & on the tough side, but serviceable with the sauce). But-- I feel like the fattest fat American writing this-- it's hard to enjoy what they've got when they give you so little of it. I had the 2 meat combo: two meats and a side of beans. In the photo, you'll see 2 ribs and one thick piece of brisket, with the beans and condiments (so many pickles! like, just, handfuls of them! for some reason!). All this was $16, which seemed close to twice as much as it should have been. (I would have gladly forgone like 90% of the pickles for another rib.) In the end, getting home and opening the takeout box, well, it felt like opening your Christmas bonus envelope and finding a Jamba Juice coupon. Impossible not to be disappointed. read more
