I come here for Wing night every now and then. $6 all you can eat wings and $8.50 pitchers of Bud Light. Their wings are really good and the service is always spot on. We tried their "extra hot" wings last night. They use ghost pepper in the sauce and I could only eat one. It left my mouth with the normal "this is hot" gasping for air and trying to fit my mouth inside my beer pint. The stranger effect was that I felt floaty, and almost light headed, kind of fun. The owner brought us the extra hot and wanted to see us try one. I always like a place where the owner is on the floor, running food, etc. I would rec for Wing Night! it gets crowded fast, esp their patio on a nice night. On hot days, they have misters! read more

I went in last night for the first time and had a couple drinks with a girlfriend. I've lived a block away from this spot for two years and went to Cafe Netherworld only in times of extreme desperation... NOT my style. Now that its been renamed and revamped I will definitely be coming back more frequently. Alex, the bartender was great... good recommendations and entertaining. My only complaint are those dark green walls. uugh! they have some tasty beers on tap and the best part is STRANAHANS for only 6.50. hello nightcap. Pub on Penn you are my new best friend read more

I moved near by about 3 weeks ago. Came here 3 times. First time was great (on a Wednesday). Second time was even better (Saturday). Third time was absolutely awful (on a Tuesday). I saw they have half price appetizers on Tuesday as well as have happy hour. After work I walked over for a beer and appetizers. First the bartender/ waitress comes over and takes me order, brings beer out first then 20 ish mins later the food. When she got there I just confirmed with her that it's half price for appetizers. She replied no I'm sorry that starts at 6,It was 5:30. NO WHERE ON MY MENU OR ANYWHERE IN THE PLACE DID IT SAY AFTER 6. She says well that would explain so many orders of appetizers. Then she went and talked to someone higher up and they didn't want to take care of it. Finally after I argued that no one said anything and or it wasn't posted it was taken care of. After that not one person asked how is food , need more beer etc . The wings were old and cold with no sauce , nachos were soggy like that had sat for hours , fries were good, fried pickles were pickle chips for sandwiches fried even tho the menu says fried pickle spears . I left after an awful experience thinking wow I live right here and it sucks I don't want to come back. Then today Friday I look at my bank account and whoever charged my card the final time for my tip and food charge they put more on the tip then I put on the receipt. Oh and I forgot the charges on the receipt were correct at the end of the meal but I was done and tried of fighting so I left my tip and was done. I called today and left a voicemail because this is so unprofessional and just plain wrong. read more

I am not one to usually leave reviews, but I felt this one was necessary. I have been here quite a few times and love this place. However today when we stopped in we didn't get acknowledged for 10 minutes. We then decided to move tables hoping that would help us get service and it did not. We watched the waitress go to the same table over 3 times, while taking shots with them before even acknowledging her other table or us for that matter. I am a bartender/server and felt very disrespected that she didn't even acknowledge us or even give us any time of day. We asked about the daily special online that was apparently not a thing. We ended up walking out and leaving. We didn't leave because of the wings deal, we left because we had terrible service, or should I say no service at all after 25 minutes!!! read more

What a relief for Capitol Hill! Finally a bar where you can go to catch a game, rock a jukebox, or eat some good grub while enjoying the day on the patio. This place is huge. They have deals every day, and probably the best happy hour you're going to find in the neighborhood. 11-7 EVERYDAY. The food is pretty decent, and the prices are more than fair. There are around 10-15 flat screens, plenty of seating, pool tables, and WiFi/computer access. The vibe is definitely on the move. I've noticed business picking up and a steady crowd. I also believe it is going to be a Nebraska Cornhusker bar during college football season. So, in closing, I definitely recommend the new Pub On Penn. It's a great neighborhood pub with a good vibe. Pay no mind to Jack A. I frequent the bar and have never seen the "frat boy" type hanging out. Sounds like a distressed old Netherworld fan to me. Top 40 blaring? Have yet to hear that as well. Cheers! read more

Not surprised that my previous review was "filtered". I went back last week to have another look and give it another try. After all, catching them so close to opening was probably not fair because they had just started. Well the conversion is complete. The weekly poker night has moved on, The pool people have moved on, and the regulars have moved on. Despite the assurances that things would not change, they did ( no surprise ) and despite the reviews that say the regulars are still there, they aren't ( again , no surprise ). The physical improvements are nothing short of amazing. The new patio is a great space, and the extra bike racks are very welcome. The food is definitely better, and more choices makes it worth trying. As I said before though, a unique place has become another cookie cutter sports bar. Chadtastic people all over - the cream of the entitlement scene. Expect top 40 music, narcissistic 20somethings spending daddy's money, and go team go! It works for some people, but apparently not for others. read more

Love it. Love it love it love it. I went on a Wednesday after my friend suggested the unlimited wings for $5. Everything was amazing. As to be expected, it was hard to find a place to sit but once I did I settled in with a tall glass of Strongbow and got to work on the wings. As if living up to expectation the bartenders were very nice and friendly, and knowledgeable of their drinks. The wings were phenomenal and while I would have loved to get more than five at a time I realize wings that quality take time to pump out in such numbers. The atmosphere, the location, the friendly patrons and staff, and the amazing food and drink get a five star rating from me and I will be back next week! read more

I've always enjoyed $5 all you can eat wing night and have been here a lot of Wednesday nights with friends. The only thing keeping me from giving this place a 5th star is that sometimes the service can be hit or miss. When it's it's there it's great! But maybe due to being short handed on occasion or something, I've had terrible service only a couple times. Not rude, the waitresses have always been kind and on point, but when it's bad you just get ignored completely it feels like. Doesn't happen often enough to be an issue with me personally and it definitely doesn't stop me from coming in for a drink or some wings or both! p.s. their other food is also pretty good as far as bar food is concerned. read more

Been here a couple times now for wing night and a couple other random occasions. On Wednesdays, it's hectic to say the least. Literally everyone's trying to get $5 wings, so seats maybe limited, drinks might take a little longer, and your wings might not come within 15 minutes. Service is pretty hit or miss on Wednesdays, but that's to be expected. Don't whine about it, be happy with what you get, because you're a guest at their establishment. Aside from wing night, this bar is excellent in my opinion. Happy hour is cheap and their fish and chips are some of the best I've tried in town. If you have suggestions for better fish and chips, please do send me a message. Thanks Pub on Penn! read more

HUSKER Fan's!! Awesome place to watch the game if your regular place is packed! Great pour on drinks, frothy cold beers and FOOD! Did I mention Huskers game on every tv! Woot woot! You can even play shuffle board while half time is on!!! read more

Pub on Penn - GOOD BIG RED!!! @ Pub on Pen - Pubs Near Me - Denver, Colorado

I first moved to Cap Hill a few years ago and went to the NetHerWorld (previous bar in this location) and enjoyed the quiet on Friday and Saturday nights...then Pub on Penn moved in and I swore to myself that I would not accept this change without some fight. But then something happened...the staff grow times 2, the patrons more than tripled, they painted over the black walls and took down the dead bodies from the rafters which made it easier to bring dates. The crowd is a mix between old NetHerWorld patrons, sports fans, and local lush's. I have never seen a fight because somehow everyone gets along. The service can get slow sometimes but the daily specials make up for it. cheers read more

I like this place - it's a good spot to grab a drink, shoot some pool, listen to good tunes, etc. This review would be 5 stars if not for the following incident. We love to play music on the juke box, sometimes it is even the biggest motivation to get through the week. A buddy of mine queued up some classic rock via the touch tunes app on a cellular device. The song played for 15 seconds before it was abruptly turned off. I'm suspecting the owner/bartender was behind this move but I can't prove it. read more

Wednesday is wing night!! I'm a fan of their $5 wing night. They have several varieties, naked, hot, barbecue, spicy garlic and and an Asian one (I think!). I recently discovered that you HAVE to order a soft drink or beer so it's technically not just $5, still a good deal nonetheless. My personal favorite is the spicy garlic. You have to order at least 5 wings at a time and I'm always mildy ashamed at how many wings I challenge myself to eat. The service here is good, in my experience. They're obviously super busy but I feel like the servers try their best. I would recommend getting here early, like before 6 if you want a table. I'm not a fan of the smoking on the patio, it's a personal preference so fyi. I'll definitely be back here! read more

I'm a fan! I first tried this place as a substitute for my normal hangout on Sunday for Bears games; it was great! Crowd was decent and I have to agree with an earlier comment; lots of different folks from different walks of life, and it works. NICE!!! Good selection of beers, service was on the speedy side, food was typical bar food, but tasty. They aren't going to win a culinary award, but it's good quality bar food, fast..... That's all I ask for going to a bar to watch a football game. Went here for a happy hour today, and again, good crowd and service. read more

One of my favorite bars in Denver, hands down. I lived a couple blocks away and my friends and I would go regularly. The buy one, get one free chips were dangerous and, coming from California where drinks were expensive, it was easy to walk away pretty intoxicated without spending more than $40 total for two. Trivia nights were a blast and the bartenders are friendly enough. Great place for a snow day, to chill, watch the game, etc. Miss you guys read more

I love this place! Back in the day I went here when I was in my 'club kid' period and dressed all out for a night on the town. Some nights I melded right in with the quasi-punk, goth crowd. Fun place to go! read more

Great place to eat for cheap. Love the Asian wings with sweltering sauce or the gator dust with Asian sauce on the side very good overall great service servers very personable. My spot every read more

After trying to find parking for 45 minutes to meet friends I was told I cannot come in because my license was 1 day expired, IN COLORADO THERE IS A 60 DAY GRACE PERIOD FOR RENEWING YOUR LICENCE, so mine should've been fine. They did gracefully allow me to use the restroom before I left and I had the opportunity to see the wings, they are $10 for all you can eat for a reason. Save your time and spend your $10 on decent wings, try The Piper Inn or Fire On The Mountain, not all you can eat, but you will want to eat them all. read more

Pool league, more than just an excuse to drink, you get to travel to other bars other than your "home" bar. Sometimes it's good, sometimes it's bad. Pool League has brought me to this establishment before when it was Cafe, but now it's Pub on Penn. Place looks better (IMO)- Big Buck Hunter and Skeet Ball -Oh yes Friends they do! 3 Pool Tables- you betcha! decent specials during the week. Trivia on Thursday- little crowded and the music was a bit too loud in the pool room while we had league but not that big of a deal. Kelley was our server, she was super sweet... a little flighty and kinda slow service, but she really was sweet as pie. My only beef is the parking! WTH! Only about 4 spaces in the front and back- sometimes takes 20 min of driving around the block to park- but that is more of the location. Probably won't go here unless it's league, but still a nice spot. read more

Loud. Local. BOGO. The volume in this place is ridiculous. They play mostly old pop jams and classic rock, but it's the totally plastered drunkies that makes it difficult to hear people less than 2 feet from you. Local crowds are awesome, but you do get a rather eclectic mix that I won't go too far to describe. Just imagine the combination of Colfax + LoDo + hipsters. Yep. The daily specials are pretty awesome -- even more so when you combine it with their buy one get one happy hour. All in all, it's a good ol' time, but better with a smaller crowd as the volume levels get out of hand quickly. read more

Happy Hour - ???? Who knows! They change the time and prices on you, even when they are posted on the door, or when you call, or in person! You get one answer from one employee, and a totally different answer from another employee, all on the same day! Interior - dark, ok, nothing to brag about. Service - Not So Good! Know what you want when you go in, and order it all at once. It is a long time between seeing any server. Food - we liked the queso and chips, that's about it. Parking - street Prices - double and triple check your bill when you get it. Recommend - no. read more

Chill atmosphere and free pool! This was a great stop in our visit to Denver. We got two beers and went into the back room to watch basketball and chill. It seemed like a hub for lots of the 20/30 something locals. If I was in the area again, and wanted a cold beer and some fun, I would definitely go back! read more

So, I've only stopped here for a drink. It was a while back, and I neither remember a splendid experience nor a horrible one. It's just another sports bar. read more

I feel weird about this place. I really like it, but I couldn't really tell you why. It's not really anything special, your average "pub" scene. Beer isn't especially cheap, the food isn't especially good, but for some reason I really like this place. It's huge, which helps when you're with a group and you want your own area. There is also a really big patio which I like. I guess in general I just like the atmosphere (and it's incredibly close to my house). All in all, a nice neighborhood scene. read more

I've only came here on Wednesdays for their all you can eat wings, but I've came back time and time again so I do enjoy this place. The all you can eat wings is only $5 dollars with a drink and usually we just go ahead and get a pitcher so it's a great deal and no one else can beat it. This place does get packed and parking and waiting for a table can be tough, but somehow each time we are quite successful in getting a table within 20 minutes. I typically come with a group of three or four, but sometimes was actually able to have more people meet up with us for a group of ten and were able to sit together although that was tough. The flavor of the wings is good. My favorite are traditional hot as well as the Asian. The others are ok too except for bbq- I will never order that kind ever again. The wing deal is all the way from 5pm to 11pm and the closer it is to 11 the less crowded it is and easier to get in. If you do arrive between 5 and 8 just be prepared to spend a while there. read more

I really like this place. It had a great atmosphere and cheap drinks. The happy hour specials are ridic! Wing Wen is well worth the wait! Give it a try. read more

This place is great. We live 2 blocks away and order food to-go at least 2 times a week. Also, you can't beat $9 PITCHERS! ROLL TIDE!

We adore this place! It is so reasonable! We go for Taco Monday and get $1.25 tacos that are perfect! We also love to go for breakfast burritos and mimosas. Make sure to try the tots and queso! So good! Oh and the maid rites! We are from the Midwest and were so happy to see them on the menu! Love this place! read more

This is what a local bar and a good bar should be. Yes, the wait staff can be a bit slower on their busy times (Friday, Saturday, Sunday during football season), but on the whole they're responsive. If you come in more often, they always remember you, the owner is around often and waiter staff AND bartenders remember your name. Know what that makes this place? A neighborhood bar. Its not perfect, but it'll always have a beer for you and some grub in your belly. If you're in the neighborhood and looking to make a bar home, I say give this place a shot. Its not like we have much else around here. read more

I finally made my way to pub on pearls sister location pub on penn. had to experience the $8 all you can eat wing deal and it did not disappoint! The service was extremely fast and extremely friendly and the buffalo and Asian wings were just as delicious as they were at pub on pearl. read more

Dirty, flies all over. Also, two guys sitting at bar clearly over-served and being very aggressive. I guess it's the flip side of $2 beers.

Cheap stiff drinks? Check. Inexpensive bar food? Check! Friendly staff in a neighborhood dive? Double check. I've been coming here for years now and will continue for years to come. The staff with remember your name and the regulars are like family, if you're new to the neighborhood and want to meet people there's no better place and if you want to drink in silence they've got your back. There's no discrimination when it comes to being part of the family, and if you want a local watering hole to call home pub is it. The owner is present daily and takes great care of his staff and guests and it really shows how passionate he is about his business! Also the only dive bar that actually enforced the mask rule that I've seen and tables/people are distanced! So kick back with a pitcher of beer and a burger and (safely) enjoy yourself. Also nice that they take no **** from rude customers, so leave your janky behavior outside and have some fun! read more

One of the best bars I've been to in the area. Nothing fancy, but that suits me perfect. Couple pool tables in the back, nice burgers, cold drinks. Staff seems friendly. Inexpensive and fair prices. I've been here for happy hour plenty. One of my go to places. read more

I have a strange affinity for this place. I usually call it Nerd Bar, because it's full of Burners and people in trench coats with hair like Johnny the Homicidal Maniac. A nice unpretentious alternative. It's a good place to camp out with a computer for while, listen to punk and 90s industrial on the jukebox. Decent bar food, good service, really nice people. I have two problems, which if fixed, would draw me a lot more often. First, the coffee is pretty bad. Second, there isn't much on tap. read more

LOVE THIS PLACE! This is probably one of my favorite local hangouts. You can go in on a Wednesday and they are PACKED (probably because of the $5 all you can eat wings)... Last time I was in, I was with a bachelorette party and we were on a scavenger hunt with some pretty "impossible" items. Adam was there and he was so great and accommodating (even though we were probably a bit obnoxious). This place is a fun atmosphere and a great local hang out. I highly recommend this place and will absolutely be back (probably weekly!). read more

Can't say enough about this place. I showed up for all you can eat wings and was very impressed. Even though it was packed, the staff was very helpful. I wasn't even done with my wings before the waitress was back asking if I wanted more. While there, we saw an older man who looked like the owner or manager going around and working side by side with the staff. He checked in on guests and was very helpful as well. All together the team they have at Pub on Penn is on point, keep it up! The place is just a typical bar. I loved it cause there were two big screens by us, one with the NBA playoff game and another with a hockey playoff game....these games were the whole reason we went out for drinks. Now the wings! It's not the typical lazy, all you can eat wings....these are great tasting, fresh wings that come in a variety of flavors. If you go, try them out. I've recommended this place to several friends and will definitely be returning soon. read more

Trashy bar. There are much better bars in the area. Staff is absolutely horrible. Terrible experience and won't be coming back.

Great drink specials and a great wing night special on Wednesdays. Everybody is pretty welcoming and its a mixed crowd

It's a dive joint, with pool, one shotty skee ball machine and an enclosed back patio. Don't get your hopes up too high and you'll love the place. Decent neighborhood crowd. The employees run from cheery and helpful to inexperienced and gossipy ...one bartender was criticizing patrons to some regulars sitting at the bar next to me. (Tacky) read more

Thought this place was going to be your average hole in the wall with dry wings but was pleasantly surprised. They have a great selection and $6.99 all you can eat on Weds! Warning: the Sweltering wings are no joke. read more
