    What a great place to catch a game on the screen , friendly staff , fun decor and it is a big place so plenty of seating. Wings hit and the beer was delicious. I even won a free contest that made it even better. Lots of pics of inside, if just want a beer and good food with a gas on the screen or if there would have been a at home baseball game that would have been even better . Grabbed a beer and went to a baseball game because you are right there .

    Potstickers. Already covered in sauce. I'd prefer to dip.

    I never come here because it's too expensive. Everything is ridic priced and then they add multiple fees. Gratuity: You don't add gratuity on top of tax as a rule. If a customer prefers to tip more, that's their choice to decide, but it should be calculated by businesses correctly. Patrons shouldn't be 'expected' to pay gratuity to servers as an extra tip on the tax money they pay to the government. So if govt tax is $10, we wouldn't tip the server 20%, or $2, for the act of charging tax... Even those incorrect tip percentages were still calculated wrong! The actual math was incorrect and doesn't equal the values listed of 18%, 20%, 22%. They are mathing wrong and it's gross. Idk how a biz can mess that up accidentally and still be running a business which relies on accurate math. All of this added $ adds up and I try not to trust any suggested tip amounts because of false numbers, Tom's is an example. Reminder that Denver pays one of the highest hourly wages for servers. Most American cities pay a handful of bucks an hour for servers (not bartenders, which is minimum wage). But Denver is up there with much bigger, and prolific cities (think $2 an hour vs $17 -- it's wild if you didn't know!). One time I came for a football game, they promised to have a section with my game on (I called ahead) but they couldn't deliver on sounds and kept having issues. Which is stressful when your game is live! So for these reasons, it's just not a spot I choose to frequent. Probably get more out of tourist/business visitors or those who somehow (in this current climate) have extra money to blow.

    Tom's Watch Bar is perfectly located in McGregor Square, very convenient whether you're heading to a baseball game at Coors Field, a concert at Summit Music Hall, or just looking for a fun place to hang out and watch a game. And one can literally watch any game, thanks in part to the massive HD television setup Tom's has smack dab in the center of the dining room. No matter which sport or team you follow, chances are you will be able to watch it at Tom's. I came here for some pre-concert grub and even though the place was packed (the Av's, playing an away game, and Nuggets were playing that same night) the service was impressively quick. We were seated and served way faster than expected for being a walk-in's. The burger was absolutely yum. I had the Bacon and Avocado Burger with Tots and it was one of the best I've had at a sports bar. The restrooms on the lower level are accessible for those using mobility assist equipment but the entrance may be a little more challenging to negotiate. Parking is, as the usje, also a "fun adventure", so definitely recommend the parking garage at One Wynkoop (closer to McGregor Square) or 19th and Waze (for a bit of a walk).

    I came here for a private event upstairs, so it wasn't a typical experience. The servers were really attentive with our open bar. We had food on a buffet and it was also really good. There is tons of space there and it has a cool vibe.

    Cornbread pancake & Nashville hot chicken - it's ok
    Kearstin E.

    First time visiting this location after a busy baseball game, and they were able to seat our group of five with no problem at all. The place is super clean, both upstairs and downstairs, with tons of screens so you can watch pretty much any game from anywhere. I really liked that there are so many different rooms and vibes to choose from--outdoor dining, upstairs golf simulators, and it's even dog-friendly on the patio. For food, I went with what sounded most interesting: the cornbread pancake with Nashville hot chicken. The chicken itself was great, and the sauce had amazing flavor, but the portion of chicken was pretty small compared to the oversized cornbread pancake. The pancake was unfortunately undercooked and dry, so I didn't end up eating much of it. We also got an order of the cheese curds and they didn't have the high quality batter I'm used to these were more like fresh out of a frozen box - you can skip those as well. I've been to their Vegas location for brunch before, and I remember the food, drinks, and overall vibe being a notch above--maybe I just picked the wrong thing here. Either way, I'd definitely come back to try something else, because the atmosphere and service make it worth another visit.

    We went for a night walk at Mac Gregor square downtown Denver . It was beautiful. Lots of restaurants , sports bar and cafe. The Coor's stadium beside the square. The area was clean and lots of street lights. Nice for a night stroll Then went for a drink at Tom's ordered craft beer and Thai chicken wings. Really tender and juicy Service was great.

    Duck's watch day!  Whooooop!

    Great place to watch a game and have libations and food. Staff did an excellent job and establishment was spotless. Would go again when in the area and wanting to watch a game.

    The beer is always cold.

    Stopped by Tom's Watch Bar while in town for the weekend, and it was the perfect spot to catch some college football before the Broncos' epic come-from-behind win the next day! The place is packed with TVs--there isn't a bad seat anywhere. The atmosphere is energetic and full of life, making it a great place for any sports fan. The staff was friendly and attentive, and the food was excellent--way better than your typical bar fare. Whether you're here for the game, drinks, or just good vibes, Tom's Watch Bar delivers all around. Definitely worth a visit when in Denver!

    First time here for a meetup with college alumni. Parking is a bit dicey, but I found a lot near Coors Field that wasn't too expensive. Once inside, this place is huge with lots of TVs. The beer selection wasn't as big as I might've expected, but there was still a decent selection, and I managed to find something I knew and liked. For food, I had the Mediterranean chicken grain bowl. While yes, it had grain in it, I would compare it more to a salad than an actual protein bowl, especially since it even came with dressing. It was very good and also did a job good of filling me up. Even if though they were busy, service was around whenever it was needed. I'd definitely go back if I was downtown and looking for a place to watch a big game.

    Came here on a busy Friday night to watch a football game. I was so worried that we wouldn't have a place to sit but the hostess made it work for 7 people! She was a rockstar. Bojanna was our waitress, and she was very on top of it! Very busy day and she made sure that we were taken care of. The nachos were top tier and definitely could feed two or three people. The vibe of the bar was very loud and energetic. It was fun to see so many UT fans in one place. (even though we lost lol) I would be happy to come back here and highly recommended as it is in a great location. Although parking may be a challenge, we took Uber. Overall, 4.5/5 stars

    We stopped by Tom's to watch the ufc fights. No cover charge which was nice. This was one of the cooler sport bars. The amount of TVs was insane. Would love to watch football here on Sundays. This might be the only place I've ever seen sell a 40 oz draft beer. Tried the chicken tenders and they were some of the best I've ever had. Hand breaded, crispy, and seasoned perfected. The loaded fries are a must try. The queso that comes on it is amazing. Must go to while in Denver.

    Happy Hour

    Fun environment to go pre games or to watch sports. Waitresses are hard to track down. The food & drinks are decent. If the upstairs is blocked off for an event, there are not enough bathrooms downstairs to accommodate all the patrons. Great specials.

    Yard House says they have "Great Beer... with the world's largest selection of draft beer, Great…read morefood & Great Music". They play classic rock & it's loud. A little hard to have a conversation across the table. However, the food was wonderful. We arrived late in the afternoon on a Sunday & they were relatively busy. Yard House has been around for 30 years with tons of locations all over the U.S. This location is in the downtown Sheraton Hotel & of course being downtown parking can be a challenge. Yard House doesn't take reservations but they do have a Waitlist. Service was great...we were seated immediately & greeted by our friendly & attentive Server. Drinks & Apps came fast. We had the Fried Calamari & Miguel's Queso Dip to start. The crispy Calamari was nice & tender - served with two yummy sauces, a Spicy Tomato & a Roasted Jalapeño Tarter. The Queso Dip was good as well but we needed more of everything - dip, tortillas & chips. We had a couple of entrees. First, was a 20 oz Bone-in Korean Rib Eye with Grilled Shrimp & Chili Garlic Fries. This was a huge plate of deliciousness. The steak was cooked perfectly & marinated in a strong soy ginger marinade which I enjoyed. The Grilled Shrimp were a nice compliment & the Fries were spicy. In hindsight I should have chosen the Parmesan Mashed Potatoes as my side to balance out the dish better. Our second entree was Fettuccine Alfredo with Chicken, this was good as well - grilled chicken & creamy Alfredo. What a fun place to go with tasty food.

    It's loud and the beer is OK. Clean, service quick. You need to put your name down and the wait is…read moreusually pretty long. The food pretty good. The ahi tuna salad was good and the Korean cheese roll was super flavorful.
