I just celebrated my 70th BD at Charlie's. Invited and hosted with Charlie's help over 100 people. Friends and clients as well were treated with an over the top experience by every single employee. Took over the facility treating everyone to a nice breakfast buffet with truly an over the top drag show for our entertainment. This was such a fun day. The employees decorated the room so beautifully. Took all the stress from my shoulderqs and created just the perfect day. Even my Birthday cake was fabulous. OHighly

Charlie’s Denver is an absolute staple of the Colfax nightlife scene! It’s such a unique spot—part country-western saloon and part high-energy Top-40 dance club. Whether you’re looking to do some line dancing in your boots and hat or just want to catch a high-production drag show, the vibe is always unapologetically fun and welcoming. The drinks are reasonably priced, and the atmosphere is electric, drawing a great mixed crowd. Special shoutout to the staff and performers—Alyssia was an incredible host and DJ during my last visit! It’s a must-visit if you’re looking for a high-energy night out in Denver with a little bit of everything.

Country bar from what I seen. Been here a couple time. They definitely ha e their regulars. Don't get caught up in the drama of the regulars. They have a pool table in a tight corner. There is a large dance floor that does karaoke and does have drag shows also depending on the night. They have special each night. They do have a very stringent entry. That will wand you as you enter to make sure you have no weapons. That says a lot about the place. It has an outside patio with heaters if needed.
