Hadn't been to Herb's since 2006. It was fun to go back. Great dive bar vibes. Drinks are…read morereasonably priced, and though I only had water, I heard they make a mean martini. Lots of fun going on - great music, trivia, and of course great people watching. The two bartenders working seemed like fun dudes who were accustomed to the regulars as well as the "irregulars" such as myself. Great place. Give it a shot.

Yeah, I thought your mom's house was actually pretty good. It was not that crowded on the night. We…read morewent to see some bands that we really like. The sound was great, and we had very good sight lines. The drinks were not unreasonably priced, and the bartenders were really good. The same cannot be said for Pearl Divers next-door (where the bathrooms are). Those bartenders put an unauthorized tip (while we were still there and before we had closed out the) on my girlfriend's credit card that was more than the amount of entire bill. This is currently under dispute with the credit card company, but it does not speak well for their honesty, integrity, or customer service at Pearl Divers.

Your Mom's House operates on very shady practices…read more If you need to increase prices due to inflation, be transparent about it in the prices presented. We were surprised with a "Fair Wage and Inflation Fee (this is not a tip) (20%)" line in our receipts, which let's be real, most of that or at least part of it is very likely going to the owner(s) not the staff. On top of that, I know quite a few musicians in Denver and almost every one that has worked with Your Mom's House has told me that they had issues with getting paid. Overall, it is a fun space but I can't support a business that operates this way.

Cool bar. Great space in the side for live events. The people were nice, and drinks reasonable…read more I loved the men's room. Just what you'd expect in a perfect little grimy dive bar.

This is a funky little dive bar on South Broadway that hosts local and traveling bands. We saw…read moreSummer Dean here recently and bought tickets ahead of time online. It's mostly standing room for shows, save for one or two small high top tables near the bar. Drinks are good and they have a decent cocktail list. I ordered a drink that had Jones Family gin. We came on a cold night, and it was chilly inside, so I'd suggest to dress warmly in the winter. Cash and card are accepted at the bar, and there is an ATM machine if needed. The restrooms are what you'd expect for a dive bar, so keep that in mind! Overall a cool place to see local shows and smaller travel acts.

Happy new year!…read more Bluebird was hosting a party to ring in the new year, so I went here with a couple of friends. The tickets were a little pricey, so that's the only thing kind of iffy. Street parking all around or you can Uber/Lyft. They do have security to check IDs and bags. But once inside, it's free room! It was not that crowded for how many people were there and I still felt like there was enough elbow space. It did get very loud because we were right next to the speaker so definitely protect your ears and bring some earplugs. Overall the venue itself was really nice and I would definitely consider going back if the price is right.

It is my goal to visit every major concert venue in Colorado and I can confidently say Bluebird…read moreTheater is in contention for first place! So intimate, not a bad seat in the place (it's standing room GA but you get the idea). There are multiple tiers in the stands so try to get there early and get a spot against one of the tiers rails. The bottom section is touching the stage. I saw Bryce Vine here and he had many interactions with those in the first 2-3rows. So awesome can't recommend enough!

It's a dive bar. It's a comedy stage. It's a music powerhouse. What is Lion's Lair, if not iconic?!…read more If you're looking for a place that's all heart, loud and proud, it is HERE. Anybody who's come out of Colorado to become a big name has gone through those doors to play on the little stage. From local to traveling acts, from punk bands and karaoke talent to gritty stand-up and flirty burlesque, this place has it. If you're up for a night that doesn't stink of ordinary, swing through that creaky door and take in a most memorable evening. If there is a cover, it's usually nominal. Drinks are cheap, served by a great crew that's always up for a laugh and cheers. Sometimes hitting the town isn't about getting fancy but just kicking back, and this is a great place to do just that off the mainstream treads.

Great little dive bar on Colfax! Came here for the first time last night to see a DJ (or set of DJs…read moreI guess) that we like. The interior is small but I like how the bar is set up kind of in a rectangle so you're actually facing some other people (maybe awkward, but feels more communal?) They had an inexpensive menu of basic beers. They were out of the drink I wanted so the bartender made me a creation that I guess is something the doorman likes - not bad, and I think it was about $10 which is pretty decent for a mixed drink. I noticed a big red counter/clock on the wall across from us and after a few seconds we deduced it was a decibel meter. I'm curious if they have restrictions here for noise - AOK by me. The volume was generally alright (a little loud but what isn't?) and they actually had a sound guy in the corner making sure the volume and quality sounded good. Overall had a very decent Saturday night here.

My friend and I were ready for a night of nostalgia with Alice Cooper. The show did not disappoint,…read morenor did the venue. The Mission Ballroom is quite cavernous, industrial and loud. It's a good loud, a wall of sound, well-balanced. The space was standing-room-only with bars along the side wall. The stage was large with an immersive lighting display. Overall, it was a great experience. The pricing was what you would expect for a venue this size. I assume ticket prices are a sliding scale depending on the show. The drinks and pricing were what you'd expect for a show. The parking is a little annoying; be sure to bring cash and plan accordingly before you leave the house. Otherwise, it's a good night to be here!

My first time here for a show last night was awesome. Parking is easy, albeit a pricey. New…read morebuilding next door has good, beer/cocktails, and a place to hang before the show. Getting through security was easy. Venue seems new, clean, and spacious. I like that the GA area is bigger than just the floor where you have to stand for hours. The majority of the seating bowl has stadium-style seating. The benches are hard, but seat cushions are available for free. Lighting on stage was rather dark, but I assume that was for the performer, not because of the venue. I'll definitely be back.

We came to the Cervantes Masterpiece Ballroom for the Kitty Cat Drag Ball…read more It was a super easy venue to find and once we were inside there were averaging bartenders to get drinks from. There is a main level but also a 2nd level view. Overall a great experience.

I had a lot of fun here with my friend Heather and she showed me around the place and the little area in the back/ outside which I had never seen before. The people here were so cool too very friendly and helpful. I also love that they are great about free water and ear plugs and really taking care of their people here. Also the little chandeliers are chef's kiss !

Such a great date spot! Nocturne is a very intimate setting with live jazz and beautiful, low lit…read moreambiance. We chose this spot for our 4 year anniversary and were treated with excellence. When we arrived, a small bouquet of flowers awaited us at our table. We had floor seating and enjoyed the music and the food. There was a 3 course menu that we chose from: started with the strawberry salad and peach glazed pork belly paired with grapefruit fizz mocktails. We both chose the seared halibut as our entree, and dessert was the chocolate stout cake and coconut panna cotta. WOW. That coconut panna cotta was absolutely one of the best desserts I've had. It was light and wonderful, perfect way to end the meal. I would definitely come back here in the future, it can be hard to find intimate setting restaurants in Denver and even fewer with wonderful live music. This place hit the spot.

Debating giving this place a try? Don't…read more Wonderful service, excellent food and perfect jazz entertainment. Was happy to celebrate my sisters birthday here when we had to do a reschedule. Staff was accommodating and changed for a night that worked best. Did the prefix dinner and a show with the wine and n/a pairing. Absolutely recommend. Paella - 10/10 the sauce? Yes. Salmon - perfectly cooked 10/10 Duck confit - recommend (a little kick but must try, I promise) 10/10 Korean fried chicken - ufff delish 10/10 Dessert: Banana Tart? - Mm hmm that was my fave - there is a sesame crisp I believe that was excellent on that dessert. Tried to get everything - recommend. :) you will enjoy a beautiful night with good food and great music.
