Their housemate Ginger is absolutely amazing! It's a little on the sweet side, but has a really good taste.
Fun little spot with some of the best cocktail flavor combinations in the city. Pictured here are the Calling All Skeletons and Whatever Didi Wants. Both were mixed to perfection and came out quickly. We also got the Cold Crab Dip and DANGGG - I highly recommend you do too! The shrimp chips and cucumber are great as dipping items. Our server was really sociable and had us laughing a bunch. I wish I had room for dessert, but it’s just giving me another reason to come back
I love this place! Great energy and look for a bar. The wings were fantastic and the drinks were incredible. The place is huge.
Will definitely come back again!

Suuuuperfun all-NY sports pub with a really delish menu! Indian (?) Fusion, plus pork roll, egg, and cheese 💙
Full bar, including a rad selection of craft beers.

I enjoyed myself and think it could be a great night out with friends. I don’t believe the prices match the environment, though they do match the stellar service. Just kinda comes off as grungy and down to earth, but then charge you $23 for supposedly affordable Buffalo trace and 1 egg/ham sandwich. Food is expensive these days I guess, but $11 for Buffalo trace had me not eager to return. Praise still due to the kindness and attentiveness of the servers. Maybe it was the just the wrong night to see a strangely upscale crowd (not fancy yet expensive clothes types) in a location that looks grungy as heck with the raise fist painted out front - you know the contradiction well if you’ve seen it. Maybe I’ll drop through again but hard to say since I moved from the area, but they probably deserve a second chance.
Service was a little slow, particularly when we asked for our check, but the staff was very friendly and pleasant. I was surprised that the 1-lb burger was closer to a 1/3-lb patty, but I didn't make a fuss about it. I appreciated that they had a gluten-free bun option.
Fun little neighborhood bar in the Denver Downtown area with a New York football Giants and 70s/80s punk rock theme. Even though I was visiting during a Giants game on a Sunday afternoon it was fairly busy but not overly packed.
