    Inside bar enjoying a fish fry next.
    Jim S.

    Being from Milwaukee I really wanted to love this place. But honestly the vibe was great. Wife had a stew that was really tasty. But my fish fry was not very good. Fry's were average, Tatar was dull, like eating mayo straight. It needed more relish and lemon juice. The fish was either in the fryer too long or under heat lamp too long. Not a very good experience.

    Sat outside (self serve seating) waited for server and no one came. next thing we know there's a denver fiddler (kind words) and the manger walked up after dealing with said person. DAVID IS THE MAN!! He checked on us after dealing with said situation, gave us free food (receipt machine was down), and was so kind the entire time! THANK YOU DAVID! YOURE AWESOME! will be coming back!!!

    My friend picked Wally's on a lark as we were visiting the area for a conference. Knew nothing about it except that she's from the mid-West and has a Wisconsin connection--ha! We are now patting ourselves on the back for such a great choice. The place is soooo spacious and the vibes were high. Special shout out to our server Monica and to her hella cool supervisor. Highly recommend!

    Wisconsin Cheese Curds

    Forgot to take a picture before most of them were eaten, but these were some of the best curds I've ever had outside of Wisconsin. 10/10 recommend

    Casual bar with plenty of tvs and American food. Service was quick and staff was super friendly!

    Ok...this was a random stop after the ghost tour and one of the best food choices we made. Definitely liked the pin cushion at the front and the passion for Wisconsin sports was evident all over. The Wisco cheesesteak was top notch with melted cheese curds and onions and peppers. Of course, you need to try the cheese curds and these were some of the best in the business. Great late meal here.

    House Baked Pretzel
    Shawn O.

    Ordered from Wally's for delivery to our hotel after a long day. Family of five ordered a couple grilled cheese sandwiches with chili, an order of chicken tenders with fries, an order of chicken wings and a cheeseburger. Also ordered some cheese curds and a homemade pretzel to share. All of the food was pretty tasty, our favorite was probably the chicken tenders or chicken wings. Unfortunately the side salad that was ordered with my burger did not arrive...funny thing is those of us that had chili and/or burger ended up having some wild dreams that night! Maybe not the best late night options before bedtime.

    Wally's is the perfect sports bar to throw back a few brews and eat bar grub. There are some great cheesy food options and plenty of beers to choose from! If you're feeling frisky, you can even do a shot-ski !! Very home-y feeling and TVs everywhere. Also a great place to grab a drink before a game at Ball Arena.

We're not a rowdy bunch, less than a dozen of us, meet just shy of two hours for a thematic discussion in the early evening, but after happy hour. All that said, my first time at Strange was two weeks ago. I'd heard about this place for years from one of my friends, but never been. What a low-key, great place! The bartenders were chill. The prices were incredibly reasonable for craft, microbrew and a most excellent selection as you could want. The folks that seemed to be regulars were friendly... can see why my friend has been going there for so long, now! And, hello, shopping center parking in a quasi-industrial area that totally felt safe?! I'm definitely throwing this place back in the hat for another rotation here!

Tucked inside the Free Market alleyway at Dairy Block, this smaller satellite location delivers big on atmosphere. The tap list is thoughtfully curated, and the real standout is the space itself. The seating areas feel intentionally designed, cozy, and creative ~ and they rotate the layout every couple of months, which keeps things feeling fresh. When I stopped by, the main room was set up with comfy couches, lounge chairs, and bean-bag-style seating that practically invites you to settle in. I got so relaxed I ended up hanging out for several hours without even realizing it. It's the kind of place where time disappears in the best way. Shoutout to Joy, the beertender working that day ~ she was fantastic. Super knowledgeable, friendly, and genuinely helpful when talking through the beers. Great service without being overbearing, which always elevates the experience. If you're looking for a spot downtown that feels laid-back, stylish, and thoughtfully curated, this taproom absolutely delivers. I don't get downtown as often as I should, but this place is officially on my "come here more often" list. Love this new taproom ~100% my vibe!!!

We ordered the Rosemary fries which were very crispy and fresh do they did not last long. The bartender was very nice and was very attentive.

I always get dry rub and sauce on the side so I can control the mess and the sauce. My friend's burger looked fantastic and it came with homemade chips which, were some of the best I've ever had! Their beer list is many and what I had I enjoyed. They also have a list of cocktails and wine. There's outdoor seating at ground level and a roof that has tables and a bar.

Great location, relaxed vibes, especially on a Sunday evening. The beer was solid, but the food stole the show (mostly across the board). Most of our group was happy with their dishes. I had the steak sandwich with a side salad, and the sandwich was top tier. I'm a sucker for a good sandwich, and this one absolutely hit the spot. It was also pretty large, which made it more of a fork-and-knife situation than a handheld one, but no complaints there. A few people in our party upgraded their sides to the sweet potato fries, which were next level. Perfect balance of crispiness with a hint of sweetness that made them stand out. One miss in the group was the mac and cheese; my sister ordered it and wasn't a fan, felt it was too liquidy/runny and underwhelming compared to everything else we tried. Only minor knock overall was that the kitchen was pretty slow, especially considering it wasn't very busy late on a Sunday evening. Not a dealbreaker, but something worth noting if you're in a hurry. Overall, great first Denver meal; good beer, mostly good food, and a relaxed spot that made for a solid welcome to the city.
