The mezcal cocktail was absolutely delicious. The inside is dark and cozy with a western, barebones feel. Cocktails are 15$, yet well worth it in my opinion.

This place is excellent… Service is impeccable, and Laura was amazing. I asked for a specialized drink that most bars don't offer because of the labor-intensity involved, but Laura embraced the challenge, made the drink to perfection, and was a true delight the entire time. She also made my friend an amazing old fashioned that he very much enjoyed, and he's quite the connoisseur. Very knowledgeable and a true professional.. This place is awesome!

Super cute dive bar in the Highland neighborhood in Denver. Bartenders were very knowledgeable and even made me a specific cocktail not on their menu that I had requested. Lots of places might roll their eyes at such a request, but not here. Thanks gentlemen for the great nightcap.

Never been here before, front door was open, pretty noisy. Ordered amaretto sour. This is the best drink I think I've ever had. He asked if I wanted egg whites in it....I said no. There's about 50 ppl in here but there's still room to sit and there's a pool table in the back of the bar. It's been nice so far. I recommend the amaretto sour ladies.
