Firstly: I rated the food but didn’t have any. You can however “eat” the atmosphere of this place. A Hollywood set style speakeasy is the vibe. It’s rich and tasteful. The bartenders are professionals and shine brightest when offering a hint of what you like and letting their creative juices shine. I asked Michael for an American whiskey forward cocktail that’s not too sweet and he nailed it. Most videos are of Michael but all of the staff were excellent. If you’ve got a flapper dress or a pair of cowboy boots you’ll fit right in.

Union Lodge No.1 is a bad with vintage decor, like straight out of The Great Gatsby era - old-school vibes, luxe details, and a serious speakeasy feel. The cocktails have a creative twists and classic favorites done right. Perfect spot for a night out with friends or a date night. It is not in the best location but still nice to find this bar in Denver. Service is fast and friendly.

Great selection of hand crafted cocktails. Drinks were well made and reasonably priced for the service and experience. I wanted to order the gin fizz but opted for one of the punches instead. Seems hard to go wrong no matter your preference. But order something that allows these bartenders’ experience to shine - if you’re going to get a rum and coke, do it somewhere else.

This place was fantastic. The lighting was very nice and dim. The bartenders were very tentative and the drinks were FANTASTIC. They made cocktails completly from scratch and there is a good selection to choose from. Definetly a great bar to stop in if you are im Denver and are looking for something more low key.
