My husband and went here on a Wednesday night for his birthday a few weeks back and we were very happy! The gumbo & potato salad was delicious and I'm definitely planning on going back for more soon. The fried trout was so reminiscent of classic good fried catfish from back in Louisiana. My husband enjoyed his sazerac and the live music was such a great vibe. Overall, the place felt cleaner and fresher than when we went here prior to the changes. Classy and good service. We will definitely be back! read more

Are you kidding me? Trifecta of great food, service and cocktails. Grandview Tavern embraces Southern cooking's focus on crafting veggies into craveable, addictive treats- I dreamed of summer squash last night. Don't get me wrong, delish, expertly handled proteins BUT You need to get there now while summer produce is still peak because the items featuring watermelon and summer squash were amongst my favorites. Can't wait to see what they do when tomatoes come in! Tldr: The absolute standout drinks- Watermelon Caipirinha - who knew watermelon's soul mate was cachaça? Classic Sazerac- no words needed except "perfect balance" Also enjoyed Watermelon margarita, lavender daquari, Mexican Happy Dance and an amazing Hurricane made with fresh juices-dangerous! Starters: Fried okra. Do it. Paper thin slices of barely battered crispy okra drizzled with buttermilk ranch. A. Bowl of these, a good friend and a beer would make a lazy afternoon epic Summer Melon Salad - hell yea. Watermelon, cantaloupe, shallots and crushed peanuts tossed in a perfectly sharp vinegrette. Kid you not, I would return JUST for the salad. Pimento Cheese with ham- classic, perfect then add deep fried saltines and some of THE BEST pickles I have had - green bean and sweet cucumber. Yum The mains: Everyone opted for plate lunch. Pick a protein and two sides. The fried trout, and grilled chicken with Alabama white sauce get BIG thumbs up but for me the super star was the summer squash with tomato mayo and fried onions- if I can figure out how to deliver perfectly crisp tender, not even in the neighborhood of mushy, squash at home I'll be making and eating a variation on this all summer read more

A Southern-Fried Masterpiece in the Heart of Arvada The Grandview has always been an Olde Town staple, but after today's grand re-opening, it's clear we are entering a whole new era. Chef Jeremy Wolgamott is bringing some serious New Orleans soul to Colorado, and if today's all-you-can-eat crawfish boil is any indication of what's to come, we are in for a treat. The crawfish were phenomenal--perfectly seasoned, juicy, and paired with the essential corn and aromatics that make a boil authentic. You can tell these came straight from Louisiana; the quality is night and day compared to what you usually find around here. Beyond the mudbugs, the atmosphere has been beautifully refreshed. It manages to keep that historic, comfortable tavern vibe while feeling polished and intentional. I've heard great things about the new $20 hot-plate lunch specials and that dark-roux gumbo served over potato salad--a true Southern touch that I can't wait to come back and try. Olde Town needed this. It's the perfect blend of neighborhood watering hole and high-caliber Southern comfort. Whether you're stopping in for a Hurricane at the bar or a family-style dinner, the "new" Grandview is officially the place to be. Tip: If you missed the boil today, check out their new cocktail program--the Vieux Ville (Old Town) is a great nod to the location's history! read more

Don't sleep on this place -- especially if you've seen old reviews. Under Chef Jeremy Wolgamott, this spot has been completely transformed. If you love New Orleans-style cooking done right, stop debating and just go. The food is dialed in. Gumbo is the real deal, served with a scoop of creamy potato salad right on top. Deviled eggs punch way above their weight. Black eyed pea dip is layered and complex in the best way. Pimento mac and cheese? Genuinely addictive. Solid work Jeremy and team! We'll be back. Repeatedly. read more

The Grandview Tavern and Grill - Outstanding gumbo and appetizers - American Near Me - Arvada, Colorado

The restaurant has a new ownership group and a new menu concept. Right out of the gates I had a great experience in week one. A couple stand outs were the pimento cheese platter with kicked up salty crackers and the Gumbo (I'll be back for that again and again) Brianna, is a great bartender and server. Very attentive and has done a great job helping with the new menu. She asked all the right questions that landed me on the Gumbo. Was just what I was looking for. read more

New owner alert! This new menu has a southern flair that will take anyone from south of the Mason-Dixon right back home. This is the most authentic gumbo I've had outside of New Orleans (probably not even excepting my own kitchen)! The atmosphere is cozy and unpretentious. The menu is well-curated but has something for everyone. The food is bangin' and the bartender who waited on us was kind and efficient. This is for sure going to be a new go-to spot for us! read more

So happy to have this place now in Olde Town! The food, cocktails and hospitality are top notch.

We had a great lunch with friends at the Grandview tavern. The brick walls, old Arvada photos and beautiful bar are a lovely setting. The staff were all very friendly and the food was fresh and delicious. We had the pimiento cheese appetizer and the lunch options of trout, pork chops and beef tips along with the sides we tried were all fresh and flavorful. read more

Wife and I stopped here after strolling around Old Town Arvada. What a cute and pleasant place! Very old fashioned looking bar and booths. The wait staff was very friendly and helpful. I had bbq wings and my wife had a club sandwich. The sandwich looked really good and was on a ciabatta roll. It was all for a really reasonable price. Definitely worth going to if you're in the area. read more

Tim Alan Smith Is the best!! The music is perfect plus the vibe is solid. I had the best spicy margarita I've ever had thanks to him. He made our experience truly the best. This is hands down the best place in old town Arvada. Wish I found it first. Definitely will be back. 10/10 read more

Staff is incredibly friendly and accommodating. Perfect if you're looking for a cozy bar and a bite to eat while in Olde Town Arvada

Cool little spot in downtown Arvada. We stopped in with a group of 5 looking for some dinner after an event. So the food we ordered was great. We all opted for the Australian pies and every single one was great- they come from a place in Fort Collins. l called the Waltzing Kangaroo. The pickle fries were delicious. I dropped the star rating for service and the prices. My friend spent $10 for a little cup of fries! It just seemed like everything was a little pricey for a bar. The service was excruciatingly slow. We had to flag down our waiter to order, and then to get the drinks we ordered when they never came, then our food came out at all different times, and lastly had to flag down someone for a check. It seemed like they were super understaffed because everyone was rushing around. read more

Under new management and worth trying. Had the hush puppies and gumbo. Was very good. Great ambiance and staff. Jeremy, Brianna and Tim made us very comfortable. read more

A must try!! I say this because the NEW tried and true Chef Jeremy hails from New Orleans! (IFYKYK) Get the Pork Chop and do NOT sleep on the Pimento Mac & Cheese! If you enjoy Southern food, do yourself a favor and stop in at the Grandview to tickle your tastebuds with some delicious eats. read more

I was at Grandview with my fiancé. We ordered food. The prices for the meals are outrageous for what you get. No happy hour. The owner was apparently at the end of the bar with his wife getting drunk. My fiancé pointed out something in the kitchen on the wall. It was a cockroach crawling near the food. This place clearly is not clean and has a cockroach problem. We canceled are food order and went somewhere else. We will never go back there again. Unsanitary. read more

Popped in for a quick bite with the family. It's clean, it's got history and character, the hot wings were very good, the draft beer was cold. The service was attentive. It was the perfect little pub experience. read more

Dive bar: I thought could have decent food but it was disgusting. First we waited an hour before our food came out with a raw meat burger and so bad we had to send the food back and decided to go elsewhere for fears of sanitary and health code practices. This place is a food borne pathogens illness outbreak waiting to happen. Then they had the nerve to charge us $40 for a couple of sub par appetizers. Totally unacceptable I'm reporting them to the health department! read more

It kinda doesn't matter how good the food is if the service isn't good. Our waitress was very nice. I don't think the incredibly slow service we experienced was her fault. So we tipped her well. We assume that they just didn't have enough staff on duty for a Friday night. Even with giving them only a 3 star review, we'll probably go back and give them another try - because the food was okay once we finally got it. I'll update my review afterwards. read more

Ate dinner here tonight and both my husband and I got food poisoning from the Aussie meat pies. I used to love eating here. But food poisoning...never again. read more

Highly recommend this place! read more

First, a basket of French fries cost $11.50. The menu price was $12.45. Maybe I got a discount cuz I asked the waiter if that was a typo. Just plain old French fries, maybe 2 cups in size. It's a bar not a fancy restaurant! Second, my Australian meat pie was undercooked. The bottom crust was stretchy, raw dough. There are lots of other bars and restaurants around so just keep walking past this one. read more

Often we pass by when roaming Old Town Arvada. We enjoyed our first lunch here with friends New Years Eve. In fairness, I am not much for sports bar food when I dine out. So when we planned our lunch in advance I struggled to find something other than burgers. But then remembered my maxim, "get what they are known for" and for the Grandview Tavern, you HAVE to try the burgers. Without exaggeration, the Blue Burger was one of the best I've ever had. Cooked medium rare with plenty of the blue cheese and blue cheese aioli. I indulgenced with bacon, no problem. The brioche roll made it. My friends suggested the waffle fries, "crispy deliciousness". Made complete with a pairing of Guinness Draft, twice. : ) We are already considering this a regular capstone to the work week. read more

The Grandview Tavern and Grill - Bleu Burger, a la carte bacon. Brioche bun and lots of blue cheese! - American Near Me - Arvada, Colorado

Stopped in for lunch and did not enjoy our experience. It took a long time from sitting down to placing our order - probably about 30 minutes, and it was not busy. Maybe 5 parties total including us. And took a long time to get our food too, which doesn't make sense for a raw burger and fish sticks, but alas. The fish and chips were truly the worst I've ever had. 2 pieces of what were clearly frozen, pre-breaded mush. Tasted like fish sticks. Literally only got about 10 fries with my order. The slaw was bland and tasted like it was made days ago. The capers had a weird taste. Insane that it was almost $19. My boyfriend got the classic burger mid rare. It came out raw (not bloody in a good way. truly raw, ground beef) in the middle. Also got a very sad portion of fries. We'd waited long enough and were hungry enough that we didn't send anything back or complain, but were really unhappy with our visit. read more

Food was scrumptious and waiter was nice good seating........5 STARS FOR everything except the lemonade because it was kind of water down

Pub steak was way late, apparently forgotten about. Wood knife handle was wet and soggy and had to be wipped off. Veggies onion/peppers atop the steak had a patina to it, I believe edible but I was not going to eat it. The baked potato had a crust atop, but bacon bits protected most of it. Steak was NOT medium rare but well done like a fast food burger. Never was even asked if I wanted a second beer , but did get an apology from server for long delay and resulting crappy food that was mostly edible . I had to get up from table and present myself to the bartender to get a check n pay. Sad fail, I live a few miles away and I will not be back, downtown Arvada deserves better than this !! read more

Three of us visited from out of state this past Saturday afternoon. None of the outdoor tables were clean when we first walked in. The condiment bottles were sticky and dirty. These two things alone should have told us to leave. We stuck it out. The onion rings came out with a lot of crunchy batter crumbs, so the cooking oil was not fresh; there weren't many people there so why it wasn't fresh makes no sense. We ordered a wrap and the fried chicken was way too crispy. Probably because of the not-fresh cooking oil. The tavern chips were so salty we couldn't have more than a couple. Two hours later, all of us felt stomach aches in some way. Who knows what's going on in that kitchen if the dirty tables and bottles were any indicator. Our server was a nice guy and did his best, so this review is not a reflection of the service. Until this place cleans up in all aspects, don't eat here. Kinda unfortunate given it's in Olde Town Arvada. We came to find later that the restaurant has a history with multiple health code violations. I don't write many reviews at all, but had to because getting sick from food is unacceptable. Someone needs to call read more
