Number Thirty Eight was a great experience all around. We enjoyed the touchless system for payment and the ease of using our wristbands... quite easy, so be warned! N38 is a massive place, well designed and laid out. There are so many seating areas / options, including their long bars and cozy interior spaces (for use once we're on the other side of COVID). Even outside, there are dyads, triads, 4 tops, picnic tables - you name it, they've got your party covered. In reading several other Yelp reviews and checking the weather, we layered up for our 4:30 pm outdoor seating reservation. Thermals for the win! As there aren't heaters on the lawn for those enjoying the outdoor seating, dress as if you're headed to the mountains, and you'll be quite cozy. We enjoyed PJ Moon and the Swaggers - a great show. Loved the acoustic vibe, their own songs and a few covers. We had front row seats and thoroughly enjoyed the live music. In reading other reviews, I learned that all live music performances are free and if the artists choose to offer a tip jar, you can tip that way, but this is at their discretion as they are paid via N38. The food? Also great. Not a ton of options (for now) but every dish we ordered hit it out of the park. Asian meets Mexican in all the best of ways. We shared the K-Pop fries. He had the Green Curry ramen and I enjoyed the Spicy Chicken ramen. And to wash it down, we enjoyed a few craft beers, a cider and a few cocktails. Perfect. We will definitely be back and will bring our pups next time, as the outdoor seating areas are dog friendly. Another win for us! read more

Went in for a drink a little while ago. Took 45 minutes to get a drink which was poorly made. I used to bartend myself so I usually only write positive reviews and let it go, but they have 20% auto gratuity which i honestly don't think they deserved and when I finally got to speak to the GM Zach he seemed kinda drunk and it looked like he wanted to get back to drinking with the bartenders. Won't be coming back. Sub par vibes too and the food was mid at best but for the price it sucks. Don't go here if you want good drinks food or service read more

I thought this spot was super cool and unique. I've personally never seen another brewery like it. The whole concept of it is that you come in, get a wrist band linked to your card, and then when you order, you scan the wrist band instead of having to do a transaction/open tab. Something else I liked is that tip was already included (20%) so when you're done, you can just leave. The girl who first welcomed us was lovely and explained how everything worked. I loved her energy. Can't say the same thing about the girl who cut off our bands on the way out- she kinda seemed like she hated her job. The beer selection is not too big but I didn't mind. They also serve food. The spot is huge too- with outdoor and indoor seating. It was fairly empty considering it was a Friday night. They also had live music going and we were jamming! Great spot for a chill night. They closed at 11pm and gave us a 15 min last call/heads up. Would return. Would recommend checking it out. read more

If you love outdoor spaces this place is a must in warm weather! I cannot wait to return with a large group when there is live music and the ability to play on the "beach" volley ball courts - after all isn't that west summers are for? Be sure to check the calendar to see when they are doing their drag brunches! Otherwise, with a variety of local beers on tap this is the perfect warm weather weekend hang read more

Cute place but not much shade for when it's super hot and randomly rainy. Most of the activity is outside but the inside has a cool layout which seems to be a similar theme around Denver. The fries I had were good, a little over salted but that's okay. Service is great! There was a live band but you can't hear it outside. Kinda wish they had the live band outside on the stage although there was a fight on. Overall, it does get super sunny, they don't have umbrellas so if you bring a dog, you kinda have to fight for a shady table read more

My bartender added a unathourized tip onto my debit card!! They literally stole money from me!! Don't go here!

Cool set up for a large group on a Sunday. I was visiting Denver and we went here after a nearby art fest. I got a cocktail and then a burger at another one of the stalls. The space outside was great - lots of tables, lots of room to roam. The coolest part? The wrist bands that you get when you enter. You can tie your credit card to it, making sure you don't have to open that wallet or fumble with your purse the entire time you are there. Easy to buy, easy to sell. Great shopping experience. Would definitely come back next time I'm in Denver! read more

Amazing event venue that has tons of space indoor and outdoor. The setup is great. Everything is modern and beautiful. The bar system with a wrist band is awesome and easy. The bathroom has great art. Parking is the only thing that might be a little hard. read more

Actually listen to their patrons and close the door when it's 50° inside the restaurant and they have a chance to warm the place up

First time here and it's massive, definitely a weekend spot for dogs, friends, kids and friends. Play volleyball, watch sports, sit inside or in the sun. Definitely a place to check out in denver!!! read more

Second time I've been here. The space is cool and so is the concept. They link your credit card to a bracelet that you can wear and scan whenever you order food and beer. However their internet was down right when we got there so even though we had the bracelets, we still had to use our credit card at the food and beer stations. I totally understand this wasn't their fault though. Unfortunately, the food was subpar. The Washington burger and fries were ok but the cabbage cobb salad was probably the worst salad I've ever bought. I think they could have put more time and thought into the ingredients and what goes well together but it kind of felt like they used cheap ingredients/produce. We did not finish the salad nor did we take it home. The environment is cool though, and I'd come back another time but skip the food. read more

Super fun spot!!! They have a large indoor and outdoor area. When you walk in you tie your credit card to a wrist band and that's how you pay the entire time- no need to worry about tipping/closing out as it's automatic. They have a full bar, plenty of cocktails, and tons of great CO draft beers! Also Carboy wine. Today I went for their monthly drag bingo and ordered a breakfast burger. That maple bacon patty was a 20/10. read more

A friend told me about this and I was really excited to try it because of the big patio and dog friendly but the first thing they tell you is that there's gonna be a 20% gratuity added to your bill. This is their biggest mistake. It's all self-service, beer is in plastic cups, food is in Styrofoam I don't know what the 20% is for because it's certainly not for dishwashers. All the food is self service, get your own beer, get water for your dog, get dog treats back at the hostess station. There's absolutely no service at all at this place. Beers are good. Food is not good. I have a horrible indigestion from the potato chips and weird hummus. But beer prices aren't even advertised. You have to always look up your QR code. For wanting to add 20% when everything is self service, they are doing a major disservice to themselves. I will never be back. It's a cool space but it's pretty empty. read more

Super cool spot! Once you arrive, they check IDs, give you a wrist band and assign your form of payment to your wrist band. It's pretty cool, everything is touch less payment. When ordering drinks and food all you do is scan your wristband on the machine and you're all done. I will admit that it is pretty easy to spend a lot of money bc drinks don't have a price and scanning your wrist band is so fast and easy that you can lose track easily. You don't receive a receipt till the evening has ended and they have closed. You receive a text message as a receipt which will include an automatic 20% gratuity. Lots of drink options and food was fantastic! They had a DJ when we went and lots of outdoor seating, which we loved! We had a great time and will definitely be back. read more

Number Thirty Eight is a hot spot in RiNo where you can find an always rotating selection of taprooms and numerous culinary stations. There is an intimate outdoor venue where you can enjoy local musicians and their music while taking in views of the front range. It's the best of Colorado under one roof! Number Thirty Eight uses a touchless payment system with wristbands that ensures you have a seamless experience when ordering food and drinks. You will receive your wristbands upon arrival at Number Thirty Eight and the hostess will link your credit card to your wristbands. We used this touchless payment system at the culinary stations & the taproom. From the taproom, I ordered the Raspberry Provincial Sour Ale from Funkwerks. This tart fruit beer was nice and refreshing for a warm fall day. The citrusy berry aroma transitioned nicely to a subtly sweet finish. I loved this ale! We sat out on the patio and enjoyed the live music and our drinks wile waiting for our food. Number Thirty Eight is dog friendly! What's better than enjoying the CO sunshine with your fur baby? Not much. When our food was ready, our pagers buzzed. I ordered the K-Pop Fries and Bao Buns. The K-Pop Fries were loaded with Pork Belly, Cheddar Cheese, Sour Cream, Green Onions and Kimchi. The tasty fries were packed with flavor and were a comfort food that brings the heat. I had the Crispy Pork Belly and Chicken Satay Bao Buns. The Crispy Pork Belly is made with Kimchi Mayo, House Pickle and Green Onion. The Chicken Satay is made with Satay Marinade, Peanut Sauce, House Pickle and Cilantro. The Bao Buns were nice and fluffy and stuffed with savory pork & chicken. The bao dough was deliciously sweet and pillowey. The Chicken Satay Bao Bun was my favorite; the peanut sauce on it was amazing! Ross had the Hot Chicken Tennessee Sandwich & Macha Tots. The chicken patty was huge and juicy and had kickin' spice. Definitely one of the best chicken sandwiches we've had in CO.while while read more

Fun fun fun! Stopped here while visiting a friend in CO and joined friends of his celebrating a birthday. The place is very well put together. From bar area to outdoor space. Very well thought out. The big win for me was the outside volleyball "sand" courts they have. Great place to entertain a group of fit people while having alcohol and food haha. Both the food and drinks were great. I would definitely recommend this place. Would also be returning next time I am in town. read more

Solid outdoor area, definitely the highlight of the place. Lots of room inside and plenty of seating options but half of the bar is almost always closed, and it is very loud inside. Food is ok, drinks are ok, not bad at all - but nothing to write home about and a little on the expensive side for what you get. read more

This place always seemed to be packed. It is a good place for groups since everyone has their own wristband so you don't have to worry about asking for separate tabs. The patio area is large and nice on warm/sunny days. The food is decent, I wish they had a little more variety though. They do always have a pretty good beer selection. But sometimes when it's really crowded for an event, it can take awhile to order and the line backs up quickly. read more

Really bad food. Greasy chicken sandwich, soggy fries wilted salad. Decent beer list but mixed drinks were small plastic cups for $12 and below average. 20 percent auto gratuity and everything is walk up to the counter for food and drinks and even water. What service are we paying for? Parking situation was even bad with construction on all sides. Won't be back- very disappointed. read more

Cool venue for an arts and music showcase. Inside they have 2 areas for drinks (beer, wine, and cocktails). They also have food options. The outdoor stage is large and there's a decent amount of seating, however on a super sunny, hot day, the venue could use more umbrellas for the tables or set up a tent to provide some relief from the rays. The restrooms are clean and adorned with art. Looking forward to going back. read more

Wowza, brought kids here, maybe not appropriate. Awesome concept, give them your credit card at the door then scan similar to Disney. Just walk out when you are done. We were looking forward to the outdoor patio but on a Friday night it was packed and loud, as it should be!! We found a great quiet area near the entrance for the kids to sit and eat. Everyone loved the food. Chicken sandwiches, the medium is even really spicy for someone who loves spicy. Burgers, tots and Hawaiian Mac salad were so so so good. The drinks are phenomenal! I had gold rush and another take on an old fashion followed by carboy rose (don't recommend) and pumpkin smash which is amazing!! We will be back sans kids! read more

Number Thirty Eight - Pumpkin smash draft cocktail. Someone say smoothe?! - Venues & Event Spaces Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Fun space, lots of room so that it doesn't feel crowded, great couches to lounge on, delicious margaritas on draft, a stage for live performances, food... what more could you ask for? It's all here and it's all great read more

One of absolute favorite places to come. There is always live music, great food options, and a hell of a lot to drink. The wrist bands make the lines for the "bar" go by super fast, rarely any waiting around. The giant tv outside is perfect for sports fans and my favorite part is the sand volleyball courts! I'd recommend ubering or walking if you can, parking is difficult in this area. You must be 21+ to enter (which I love because no kids are running around). There is corn hole as well, they could throw a few more out as they are always taken but that's how places like this (with great outdoor areas) tend to be! Also they have a NA beer which is AWESOME! It's not 0.0% but it's perfect for people like me who want to taste great beer but not get too crazy! read more

I honestly don't know how to review this place because I have such mixed feelings... Went for the Drag Brunch/BINGO. It would have been a lot more fun if it weren't for all the extremely rude customers that stand around you and in front of you talking over the queens, like there's no show going on at all. The restaurant itself is okay. Food is eh, diner/bar quality food. Service was great though, very courteous. I guess to sum it up, this was the straightest drag event I've ever been to! 90% women, 7% straight men, and 3% gays in the crowd...smh As a straight bar? it's okay. As a gay ANYTHING, read more

Good music love the vibe. Yummy food and service is quick. 10/10 would recommend. I love the options of drinks, there is so many it's great.

First time visiting, and to attend a Colorado Avalanche watch party. They're normally not open on Monday, and because their request to host a watch party was last minute, they werent able to offer a full menu. Unfortunately this was not conveyed to patrons upon entering. Will we return? ‍ read more

Guys. Remember live music? Well it's back and it's at Number 38! You need a reservation because of covid, but it is SO worth it (easy to do through their website). They have food, drinks, a giant stage, and volleyball courts. With sand! Lots of space to gallivant around. I love the theme--it's all Colorado based and the decor is beautiful! Even in the bathrooms they have the coolest decorations with great attention to detail. You'll have to go see what I'm talking about. I was so happy to be able to listen to music with a crisp beverage in my hand that the rest might have not mattered, but it was still all incredible! Plus they have wrist bands you just use as your card for the night. No handing credit cards or cash to anyone, it's so simple and so well thought out all at once. Loved it! Going back with all my friends next week so I can show everyone what all the hype is about! read more

Came for the grand opening. THERES A CATCH! they kick you out after 2 hours, But they won't tell you that when you make reservations and will surprise you with the abrupt exit. Otherwise this place has great potential, aside from the rude and overwhelmed bartenders. read more

Hands down one of the coolest bars I've ever been to. Two volleyball courts, live music, wide open artificial grass area where you can hang out, very unique interior with different seating areas, air conditioned inside if it's too hot. When you first walk in, you get a bracelet that acts as your credit card and it's so fun. The service is super fast and the food was delicious and unique. Will definitely be back! read more

I can already imagine how packed this place will be once we get a handle on covid. 5 stars for reminding us how it felt to be at a concert again. I've been here twice- during the afternoon and evening and both with different vibes. Drink and food prices were pretty on par for Rino. Will be back! read more

Number Thirty Eight - Baos and fries perfect with tequila and soda - Venues & Event Spaces Near Me - Denver, Colorado

We came to Number Thirty Eight at 4:30pm on a Wednesday so it was preettty empty but still had a cool vibe. They played great music, had a delicious-looking food menu, interesting drink options, and super comfy barstools to boot. We had to leave just as that night's band was setting up but it felt like a great venue to take in live music that'll be even better in the summer. Drawbacks: While the no-touch bracelet system is kinda cool, it seems a bit wasteful and I don't like the lack of price transparency at the bar. I appreciated the nice design touches and typography throughout and would have appreciated it more if they'd listed the price of each drink somewhere so we didn't have to ask. Gotta watch the old purse strings with inflation these days, y'know? read more

The food was absolute garbage. $8 for a paper thin piece of greasy AF pizza that tasted microwaved. $13 for a cardboard tray of old lettuce, 2 chunks of cheese & bacon bits. The mushroom sandwich was crap & after a couple bites we sent it back & they were rude & argued with me about getting it off the bill. To top it all off, they automatically charged me 20% gratuity when we literally picked up our food from the counter, filled our own water cups from the water station & took all the trays ourselves to throw out. We never ONCE had a server or an ounce of service whatsoever. I wonder who got that gratuity. Do not go there. I will never go back. read more

Cool place! You get a wrist band when you arrive that is tied to your credit card and just scan your wrist when you order. Had lots of drink options. Burger, pizza and tots were all delicious. DJ they had was a little weird. Cool brewery vibe. read more

The parking situation is awful. You couldn't pay me to go to this part of Denver 10 years ago. It's currently a construction nightmare. The wristband thing is annoying and extremely wasteful, they don't reuse them. All drinks are in plastic cups. Pizza dough is frozen product. For $6 slice I kind of expect homemade dough. Auto gratuity of 20% is fine, I often tip more for good F&B service. The lines aren't that big of a deal, we all wait in lines. But I needed to create a password to even see the final receipt after close out is ridiculous. Just make it accessible before the create an account wall. C'mon now read more

Love this concept and recommend you check it out. I like that you link a credit card to your bracelet for a touchless experience when ordering food and drink. The problem with that of course is that there's no tally where you can confirm your orders... and you are just automatically checked out at the end of the night. The drinks are fairly priced and so is the food, but it adds up and you don't know the amount until you check the next day. Talk about trust. The lines aren't bad because there's quick service. There's also ample seating outside and in the open air covered area near the bar. The live music here is awesome and adds to the ambiance of a fun hang with friends. I've been here a couple times now and each time has been great. The second was during a festival of sorts, so there was a cover charge that went back to some sort of good cause. The made great use of the space and had a ton of local vendors to check out and buy things from. If you're looking for a cool spot to socialize - this may just be it for you. read more

Awesome spot in Denver for a group hang or casual date! Lots of table options first-come, first-serve both inside and outside. They had a massive projector playing the NHL playoffs outside. TONS of beer options!! Super convenient you can pay with a bracelet they give you are the start and can leave whenever. I just wish the food was a little better. We loved the friend chicken sandwich but wings had way too much old bay spice on them. We came on a Friday afternoon and it was very busy. Area is up and coming so excited to come back and see how it has been bult up. read more

I love the concept of number thirty eight - they have tons of vendors for drinks, a good sized food menu, and an easy payment system. Vendors: They had a lot of vendors to choose from, including: local breweries, wine, and lots more! Payment: When you arrive, you check in at the front desk and receive a wristband which is connected to your credit card- then every time you order a drink you scan your wristband. There's no need to check out as the restaurant adds a 17.5% tip on everything. I really enjoyed this system as it made it easy to get up and order another drink. Cons: I wish they weren't as stingy on needing a table to be here. The outdoor brewery concept is better with the availability to walk around and stand up vs not having to sit at your table the whole time. As some other reviewers have mentioned, the staff gives you warning but kicks you out at a certain point so they have tables for reservations. I'd be more ok with this if we could leave the table when needed but could stay standing outside. The wrist bands only tighten, you need scissors to remove. I'd like if they were transparent about all drink prices! As far as I could see they only showed price "brackets". read more

This place is great! On the quieter side of RiNo and a bit difficult to find because of construction. However, this place has so much space! Plenty of room to spread out and the beers on tap are great. You also get drinks by paying by your wrist band which is pretty simple and cool. Highly recommend! They also had live music when we were there which was nice. read more

~The talk of RiNo~ When Number 38 opens fully, anyone who knows anything about the RiNo scene will have been here more than once. The concept is amazing: as many breweries as you can fit under one roof all separated into separate stalls, food options, a wonderful outdoor set up (pet friendly) live music, sand volley ball and very spacious inside and out. Currently you need to make a reservation or you will have to wait quite a while to get in when the weather is good. You put a card on file when you walk in and get a wristband to "pay as you eat/drink". Don't worry about tipping.. that's already charged with a flat % rate per order. I've been here quite a few times since they opened their doors, and I'm excited to come here on a regular basis this summer. read more

The place looks very nice and has a great patio. Their system for getting in the door is a bit slow and seems inefficient. People are waiting in a enormous line to do check in with their Id and credit card, while missing the band or not being able to sit with their friends. The check in staff seemed stressed and was not very polite. We might come back, but this was very frustrating. read more
