This is still one of my favorite spots in Denver for drinks and snacks. Everything about this place is amazing. That's exactly why I took her on a second date here. So I did find out that the reason for the soy sauce in her hot chocolate on the last date was actually because of a medical condition and she did not like me mentioning it to the world on my last review. Regardless I got a second chance so let's make this good. She didn't get mad about me mentioning the bird stories so let me tell y'all one. One weekend she was headed to New Orleans for work and her roommate agreed to cat sit her sisters, friends, band mates, ex boyfriends cat. Long story short she had to get a new bird. So, she said no last time, but I want to try this new position with her called the swirly twirly where she wraps her legs around me and I spin her around like a bayblade. If this posts gets 15 likes she says she'll let me do it!! Even though she knew I was writing this she still stood on the windowsill spread her arms and said hold me Jack.... Which was weird cause my names Aaron. So to get revenge I started calling her Stacy, which is her sisters name and her and I dated for about 2 years in elementary school. I quickly stopped when she threatened to hex me, my first born (if shes lucky it'll also be hers) and my cow. She may have hexed me before cause I am definitely under her spell. Wish me luck tonight boys.ᕦ⁠(⁠ಠ⁠_⁠ಠ⁠)⁠ᕤ

This place was recommended to us by a local to watch the sunset. We thought we would be able to have dinner but they only serve a few “bar food” items, therefore we just had a drink (service was slow and not that great). However the view was great when the sun started to set. The photos do not do it justice.

Not the best phone so I don't think my photo does it justice. The view is great and definitely worth the time. The atmosphere is great for spending time with friends and family too. Drinks and food are decent but portion is small and pricey. Expect 16-20 for small portion of food. Maybe have dinner before coming here. Cocktails are slightly higher than usually too closer to 18-20. Dessert isn't bad (had the chocolate cake and ice cream).

this place is so disappointing. Cool views but the positives stop there. The cocktails are overpriced as any hotel bar but that’s to be expected - but receiving a dirty glass with the residue of a previous beverage is rough. Seemed quite understaffed as well, our server was very nice but it did take forever to get our drinks and eventually food. The food was easily the biggest bummer. It was on par with conference cafeteria food. We ordered the brat platter, expecting a couple sausages with a few accouterments but received the equivalent of half of one sausage with some mustard that had crusted over and a small pile of sauerkraut. For $22 I would rather get an overpriced brat at the Rockies stadium. Will definitely not be recommending to any friends. There are way better places to eat and drink in Denver
