Historians Ale House never misses. The chicken tendies are elite, the beer selection is stacked, and the rooftop views are honestly some of the best in Denver. Perfect spot to kick back, grab a drink, and enjoy the city. Always a solid choice.

Good food but service experience wasn’t good. Our first time eating here so it was unclear if we seat ourselves. Waited a bit for the bartender to be able to direct us. Once we came back up to the bar to order, service was curt when answering our questions about the food and menu. Closing our tab was hard since there was no one behind the bar when we were finished so we had to close out downstairs.
