Great ambiance but horrible bouncers and discrimination is outrageous.

The dirtiest dive bar I've ever been to. Worst service, slowest bartender (intoxicated?), and some drunk came outside as I was leaving screaming at a guy about not tipping the bartender. How would he know that unless she told him? What sort of bartender sends her friends to fight patrons?Trash all around, unnecessarily dangerous due to the staff and management, don't recommend.

Everything from the dried blood clot stuck to the side of the girls bathroom stall, to the people of Colfax pissing on the building right outside, this humble abode is the definition of punk. My band loved playing here and arguing with the staff. 10/10 would watch my drink for roofies here again ❤️

What can I say? If you lived in Denver for any time since 1966, you know. And if you can say "no, I don't know", fix that statement. It's a one and only bar and nothing can compare. Trust me.PS - no food. Drink 'em up.

...posted while sober... Haha! This place is a great local tradition that I hope stays around forever! Great selection of drinks-and if not sure-ask the bartender to make something delicious! Check the place out yourself, but I am sure you won't be disappointed at this vintage joint.

Love this bar. It was my second time here, and both times, it's been fun. This night was a burlesque show that was well worth the $15 cover. I will definitely be returning the next time I'm in Denver.

As the Pabst sign bleeds its lurid color, like the inscription over the gates of hell, while the droning harmonics of a cover band; this place gives off the spirit of the seed of creation where all good bands spring forth. Really great dive bar, wish I could go back...

A great Colfax dive. Try the root beer barrel, it's better than you think.

Killer dive, cheap drinks, wild music venue and great staff. My band has played here a few times and we have an absolute blast every time. The crowds are fun and the sound is loud. Always a trip at the Lion’s
Super dive bar on Colfax. Great servers, well-made drinks. Went for a bi-monthly cabaret night and it was way better than I expected. Performers were unique and fun to watch. Set ground rules and then made it a fun night for everyone. Will be going back.

Comedy nights on Monday and Tuesday's are the best.
