Best Places for a RiNo Bar Crawl

Bierstadt Lagerhaus commits entirely to traditional German lagers brewed with patient, old-world technique in an industrial taproom it shares with a cidery and pub. Go with friends who'll actually taste the difference in a properly made helles or pilsner, especially when you're all tired of chasing the latest hazy release.

Adventurous by-the-glass program with a strong focus on natural and lesser-known European producers.

An urban winery and tasting room in the RiNo Arts District, pouring small-batch reds and weekly live music.

The legendary New York cocktail temple set up shop inside the Ramble Hotel with three distinct spaces: a moody front bar for walk-ins, a reservation-only back room with velvet banquettes, and the Garden for something brighter. Book the back room for an anniversary or impress-the-visitors moment, or slide into the front bar around 9 PM when the energy picks up.

The rotating cocktail list comes from one of Denver's most-decorated bar teams, and the sprawling garden patio is the real draw—shaded, strung with lights, and built for long evenings. Post up here on warm nights when you want serious drinks without the stuffiness, or bring a date who appreciates a well-made Negroni variation and somewhere pretty to sip it.

The skate-punk ethos shows up in the murals, the loud speakers on the patio, and a tap list that skews West Coast hoppy with a few accessible entry points like Antidote Golden. Come with your dog and a crew who'd rather drink under string lights with a soundtrack than have a quiet conversation.

Experience Mockingbird. Denver’s immersive art lounge in the heart of RiNo. Cocktails, live DJs, and creative nights Wednesday through Sunday.

A trendy wood-fired pizza and oyster spot known for its amazing daily happy hour (3-5 PM) and late-night deals featuring pizza and spritzes.
