50 Best Wine Bars near Lakewood

“My husband and I went for the first time last night. We had heard it was good, but weren’t sure what to expect. Food was delicious, atmosphere was fun and it was great to see families eating there. We ordered the king crab legs, which were pricy, but they were delicious and had lots of meat. I definitely recommend. We will go back!“

“AMAZING!! From one Michelin-recommended restaurant to another, this was a phenomenal experience. Nick took such great care of us from start to finish. He was so knowledgeable about the wine and food, so attentive and personable. The food was delicious, creative, gastronomy-inspired but not gimmicky. Flavorful and perfectly portioned tasting menu. Will return!“

“The food was fabulous and the atmosphere was quaint and cozy. We enjoyed eleven dishes, and splurged on the Wagyu Beef which was totally worth it. All of the drinks were creative and expertly paired as well. The restaurant also offered mocktail pairings. Overall it was a memorable experience. I can’t wait to go back.“

“We visited Guard & Grace because it is a Michelin inspector recommended restaurant. The atmosphere is very nice. The food is awesome! Just a bit salty for me. Not many restaurants season a fish 24-hour ahead of time, the black cod is really tasty! Filet Mignon was also really good, loved the desert as well!“

“I absolutely love spending time here! The staff (Tim, Sybil, Devi, Sarah, Ash, and others!) are all wonderful and make you feel at home. The food is good, the happy hour is such a good deal, and the atmosphere is so friendly! This has become my favorite neighborhood hangout, and I know I’m not alone.“

“This was our first experience at a Frasca Hospitality Group restaurant and it was, overall, very pleasant! The food was delicious, service was attentive and fast, and the ambiance was exactly what you’d expect—funky (esp the music, couldn’t stop dancing in my seat lol) but elevated! We ordered 9 dishes: beef tartare, salt beets, scallops, and pork belly to start; I had the roast chicken and my partner ordered the pork loin with the potato pave and rolls as a side; and we finished with the honey cheesecake for dessert. The scallops were far and away our favorite, and my chicken was perfectly cooked and a solid portion size. Everything else was delicious too (but the scallops still won the day) however, my partner’s pork loin seemed overcooked and a bit bland as is, but the stewed apple (sauce?) overpowered anything that it touched… So we’d definitely avoid ordering that again. Also a general comment on the pricing—it’s all pretty high for the portions you get, with dishes average $20+ so our bill (along with a bottle of wine) was over $150/person (albeit, we were comfortably full, not overstuffed, at the end of dinner). My last note will be that the music was a bit too loud at our table, as I think there was a speaker right above us so we were having to yell a bit to hear one another. Altogether, a very positive experience and I’m excited to come back to try more of their extensive wine selection and listen to funky jams again!“

“After reading so many great reviews about this place I was eager to take a first date here. However, I made the mistake of coming here on Santa Fe art districts First Fridays. We ordered the most expensive "meal" on the menu which was sliced meats, cheeses and crackers. We intended to dine in and order a couple of glasses of wine before walking the art scene. The cheese and meats were decent, but it was a very small portion and were served in a "to-go" container. Still being very hungry after the dish, we decided to skip the wine and wait in line for the food truck meals down the street. The atmosphere was nice and some of the seating looked very comfortable, so I'll probably give it a second chance on an off night and write another reviewParking: Good luck finding parking anywhere near here on a First Friday of the month“

“5/5 atmosphere5/5 service4/5 foodWe shared the burrata, the crab bisque, and egg eggplant parm. Everything was good, nothing was great. The only thing I would order again would be the burrata, but that’s hard to mess up. The crab bisque was especially disappointing. Not creamy at all and hardly any bisque? It was weird for an $18 soup. We were so excited for the eggplant and it was solid but nothing to talk about.All in all a nice experience and we would go back, but probably not anytime soon.“

“This is a can't miss spot. Start with a crafted cocktail - so memorable. Move to a pick-and-choose of several items for the table, and share. You will not be sorry. We eat veg and fish and found many yummy options. You can make a meal out of a few apps and a perfectly designed drink. Go, you'll thank me.“

“We tend to visit Postino a lot, it's next to Trader Joes and where in Denver can you find a $6 glass of wine?! Happy Hour at Postino is the bomb! We always order the shrimp scampi because it's the best we have had in Denver and then we try one new thing. Many of the breadboards are delicious, but I like lighter fare. We ordered the Ceasar salad this time and it was a proper Ceasar with anchovy dressing. A perfect late lunch snack for two.“

“Wow - what a fantastic find! Everything we had was delicious, from the drinks (I had the Berry Sangria and the bartender “roulette” which turned out to be a spicy, pomegranate margarita) to the food - baked goat cheese, the burger, the arugula and beet salads. Bonus - this establishment is woman owned! ? Highly recommend.“

“We are here for Denver restaurant week and have found a great go to restaurant! Everyone in our party of four loved their dishes, the service was attentive, and my duck confit was amazing. One of the best I’ve ever had. Table 6 is now on our short list of must go places when friends are in town.“

“We arrived for a 5:00 dinnerSelected the 'FEED ME' chef's choice menu with wine pairingFirst course paired with a white pinotLittle gem salad, good vinaigrette if a little salty, but it was a good salad.Plum beet jam with toasted bread. The bread was good, well made and tender, too much toasted, charred flavor a little overpowering with the earthiness of the beets. Plums bloomed with the wine which was niceSecond course paired with a trollingerBroccoli with an almond creme sauce, came out warm. Very mild flavors, but not delicateCitrus salad with oranges, grapefruits, fennel and pistachio. Was well put together and the way the flavors layered was pleasant.Third course, paired with an East coast zinfandelCabbage miso hummus was warm but a little salty, hearty tho' good mouth feel, and cabbage was cooked but not mushyBy this time we were pretty full, we put it in a Togo, that we brought with us.Pesto style arugula, beans and breadcrumbs and rigati hearty and delicious. The other dish really paled in comparison to this oneFor dessert they brought us a single slice of apple cake. Good cream (non-dairy, with almond milk), meh cake, buuuut.... Get it with the coffee and it's much better.Paired with a sweet vermouth drink, chocolate bitters, very excellent.Though we wanted the Panna cotta and tiramisu. We ended up ordering them anyway. Vegan, both of them. The Panna cotta is like a coconut yogurt with tart strawberry rhubarb topping, recommended the tiramisu instead.A good way to describe this restaurant is fresh and wholesome, hearty, and satisfying.“

“Barrels and Bottles has been a go-to for us for years in Golden. Ever since the Camp George one popped up we've been frequent visitors as it's closer to home. One of our favorite spots. The Nippless Cage is my fave craft pils. Dough nips are my favorite carb. And the poke in the salad is unreal. Parking can be heinous when it's busy, but that is the only complaint and ya can't blame them for creating a great place in a happening spot that people wanna be at!“

“Great place to grab a sandwich, and some drinks, with outdoor seating available! I appreciated that they're very knowledgeable about their ingredients, which is helpful to those with food allergies! I always enjoy the classic pastrami on rye, which is dairy free! My only minor gripe is that most of the sides do contain milk, although the grilled marinated artichokes are pretty good, Excellent pickles as well!“

“Overall had a great experience! Jason was our server, he took excellent care of us & gave good recommendations. House-made mozzarella was delicious. And they even gave us two cannolis, but only charged us for one! Only slight downside was that the Crab Agnolotti was a little too salty.“

“What a great wine bar. The owner, Jenn, was friendly and knowledgeable about the wine selections. Lots to choose from and reasonably priced. Their nibbles menu has an amazing charcuterie with local preserves, salumi, and crackers as well as an incredible 18 month aged Gouda from Holland with many other items all tastefully displayed. Reservations aren't required but are recommended. Glad we made a reservation because this place was full.“

“Absolutely wonderful experience here! Food was great, but service was the best part. Mark Y, was so amazing- he was kind, attentive, and provided great recommendations. The cheesecake was to die for, I would come back just for that. Hostesses and managers were great as well.“

“Love the outdoor dog friendly patio! They welcomed my wife and I with our dog and even offered her a bowl of water. Got soup, salad and a bruschetta board and it was all delicious. Great service and good atmosphere. Will be back to try more menu items!“

“Somewhat smaller sized coffee shop but wonderful for to-go offerings. Quick service. Wonderfully friendly baristas. Delicious food, had the matcha and breakfast sandwich so good! Will stop again when passing or visiting Silverthorne thank you ?“

“Dew Drop Inn... do drop in! It kind of reminds me of "There's No Way" by Lauv and Julia Michaels. "You touch" the menu and you know "there will be history between us two". Maybe, even some "regrets, but we just ignored them." Maybe, you'll try a traditional rendition or maybe you'll try an N/A remix. Maybe, you'll "want another"... maybe you'll "hold off for one sec"... but "there's no way it's not going there"... you'll order more than one drink before you grab the check! Overall, just like the song, it's cute and no one is upset when it's recommended. (:“

“Strolled into this wine bar and it hit different - like a cabaret show but with grapes. The vibe? Imagine your coolest friend DJing at a vineyard. Took a swing at the "Call Me Karen" flight, because who can resist that name?For a cool $21, I sipped on a lineup that made my taste buds do a standing ovation. The owner is amazing, serving humor with every glass.Everything about this place screams, "We're not your average wine bar," and with a deal like "Call Me Karen," they're speaking my language. It's an experience - totally check it out!“

“@ladyjanedenver was such a delight. Their drinks and snacks were a fun way to end the evening. I tried the baguette with butter and a Sway Me Smooth.SWAY ME SMOOTH (WHEATLEY VODKA, FIG, ROSEMARY, GREEK YOGURT®, ITALICUS BERGAMOT, LEMON)The staff were extremely friendly, and it was a great spot for a date night or catching up with friends.We got lucky on a Friday night, and we were able to get a table in 15 min after being told it would take 30 min.“

“So glad I came here today! I was feeling a little down and decided to work out of the house. I came for lunch and work time and the staff were SO nice! My spinach/artichoke panini was great, there is plenty of seating, indoor or outdoor. I am glad I came. It brightened up my day!“

“All I can say is SIMPLY AMAZING! We found this place by chance on a date night and have been coming here ever since. We have grown close to Melissa and her family. Amazing business owner and family in general. Her wines are hands down AMAZING and the prices are great too! This is all around 10/10 amazing with quality and service. We are members also and look forward to driving the hr there to wine taste and just hang out and chat. Her business is a home away from home. She makes her own wine and it is hands down fabulous! Again 10/10! I’m all about looking at reviews prior to going somewhere, and if you’re looking for an amazing wine spot that feels like home, 1000/10 recommend!“

“It was packed for trivia night (which was awesome), but maybe they could have had more staff to serve drinks. Still, service was friendly and super hard-working. It was really cold for most of the night. Next time I won't assume a bar will be warm ?“

“A patient Coopers' Hawk on the fence at Virgilio's... maybe on the waitlist?Sanitized everywhere I looked. Very clean considerate and tasty. Better pizza than the new place on Wadsworth. Greatest restaurant you will find in Littleton and its worth the drive as our Denver people will agree. They drive here to see us or is it to go to Virgilio's.“

“Magical little cozy hidden gem. Unbelievably kind and knowledgeable staff, delicious food, a snazzy wine selection, and happy hour? Chef's kiss. I recommend not choosing wine from the menu but tell the bar tender what your wanting/craving (dry bubbles, woody chard, etc.) and you won't be disappointed. With the food - everything is delightful. Don't let their prep center turn you down, it's fresh, delicious, and easily pared with a beverage. Cannot think of more positive adjectives at the moment but Kate's deserves them. Also super clean and sanitization stations everywhere.“

“This place is such a hidden gem in Denver. Incredible cocktail menu that’s always trying out delicious new drinks and styles, and even more absolutely incredible bartenders (look specifically for the bartender Kristin and also Brandon--they're 100% cocktail experts!), AND a chic chill vibe to the whole cozy spot. Go to Hudson Hill whether you want to have an amazing date or productive work hour or simply a great evening meeting nice strangers at the bar. This bar and coffee shop is very much worth making the effort to come to.“

“I love this place! The servers are always very friendly and knowledgeable. We love going to try a nice bottle of wine, and all of the small plates we have tried are delicious! They also have a nice happy hour and prices are super reasonable for what you get.“

“The food, the staff, and atmosphere was awesome fork start to finish! Liked the the drinks, the pizzas, the fettuccine Alfredo, the dessert, the staff, and vibe of this place! The Chicken Alfredo had the perfect amount of thickness and was absolutely delicious, the raviolis were yummy, and the pizzas were great! Get the Chocolate Soufflé as a dessert as well. Overall, highly recommend for Italian food!“

“Had a good experience at the tap house. Definitely more of a summertime place. The patios would be nicer when the weather is nicer. As the place gets real busy and gets packed on the inside if it's too cold. But they have a good selection of beers. Check it out!“

“My FAVORITE place for not only happy hour but for surf & turf! I have been coming to Logan street for 3 years now and have had superior service every. single. time.Whether I sit at a table with friends or my mom and order wine and surf and turf or sit at the bar and order wine and a caesar salad, I’ve NEVER been disappointed.I’d like to give a HUGE shoutout to the team who has taken care of me and have made me feel right at home:Maddie, Cillian, KT and Corie!!!This is by far my favorite spot to come too for not only the food and company but the atmosphere as well.I hope one day you will do brunch!! I have great ideas for this restaurant and have SOOO many friends who would come join for regular dining and brunch!Thank you Logan street ❤️❤️ love you all!!!“

“We had such a fun and wonderful night here! We came for happy hour and everything was so delicious. The bartenders were especially friendly/ attentive. The chef does a great job creating authentic Spanish plates and adds his own twist to them, and we loved it. So excited to come back and try more!!Parking: There’s a free parking garage right next door that had plenty of spaces available.“

“I've been here multiple times over the last few years and each time it's been great. Very chill vibe with very great wine. Haven't had any stinkers and the pricing is more than fair. Definitely recommend checking it out and bringing a friend!“

“This is officially our new favorite tapas in Denver! I had the best two different mezcal margaritas that I’ve ever had. The plates were very big as tapas go, and everything was delicious. It was very fairly priced given the large portion sizes. I especially recommend the chef’s choice cheese and the garlic trio. Service was the best part of a wonderful experience, and we had the pleasure of meeting the wonderful chef, who explained each dish to us and made recommendations. We will absolutely be back.“

“My husband and I stopped in here on our last day of our visit. The staff were INCREDIBLE & so attentive to every guest. We adores chatting with them. THE DRINKS were wonderful, as well as the cheese board. One of the best experiences we have ever had. We loved our experience here and would go back every week if we could!!“

“Wonderful little hidden secret!Dano was both great on the phone and in person. Funny, welcoming and extremely knowledgeable, he made our experience one to remember.Great wines on offer, and the cheese plate didn't disappoint! Lovely atmosphere and plenty of rooms to choose from.Will definitely be back!“

“Noble Riot is such a cute little wine bar, I love going for dates or bringing friends and family! Their fried chicken is to die for, I have no idea how they do it. The wines they have are unlike anything I've ever had, and the classes and flight sessions are so much fun and informational! Love this place so much.“

“It had been a while since I'd been there so I went yesterday. The food was just as tasty as I remembered (their marinara is delish!) and the service was great. The dining room is nice too although it can be a little loud sometimes. Also, if you like cocktails before or after you eat, they have a great bar too!“

“Nestled in the charming back alleys of Olde Town, Marmalade offers a one-of-a-kind experience that effortlessly combines the spirited ambiance of a bar with the refined touch of a salon. From the moment you step down into this inviting establishment, you're greeted by an atmosphere that is both cozy and exquisite.The bar area is impeccably clean, boasting a design that cleverly allows guests to wander between sipping meticulously crafted cocktails and exploring an array of high-quality salon products. The dual concept is intriguing, offering something truly unique on a block known for its competitive array of eateries and bars.Adding to the charm is the live music, providing a backdrop of nostalgic and soulful tunes that enhance the overall experience without overwhelming conversation. It's a place where you can enjoy the company of those around you, engaging in conversation without the need to raise your voice.Marmalade stands out not just for its novel concept but for creating an environment where every visit feels like a discovery, a place where the night comes alive in the most unexpected and delightful ways. Whether you're there for the drinks, the salon experience, or the sheer joy of finding something new, Marmalade promises an evening that will linger in your memory long after you've ascended back to the bustling streets of Olde Town.Highly recommended for those seeking an evening of relaxation, good music, and great company in a setting that breaks the mold.The evening's drinks were exceptional. The bartender was a skilled craftsman, with stories of drinks and mythical creatures inked onto his arms. Each cocktail he crafted was a masterpiece. The Old-Fashioned and White Russian were prime examples of mixology at its finest - simple yet elegant drinks that required precision and care. Both were perfectly balanced, making the overall experience even better.“

“I asked for a quiet table on the bar side of the restaurant. The main dining room was quite noisy and full. Food was fabulous and beautifully presented. The staff is incredibly kind and friendly. Will be returning for sure when I'm in town.“

“I grew up in the North side of Denver and live in Wheat Ridge. I have passed by this place many times and am sad I waited so long to dine here. This will definitely be a local go-to spot for us. My boyfriend and I dined in for his birthday on February 28th. We enjoyed every bit of our experience! To start we shared the truffle ravioli and calamari. The calamari was spicy which we were not expecting but we love spicy food so we were fine with it. The truffle ravioli took me back to our trip to Paris. For the main he ordered the salmon and I the pork chop. The pork chop was so tender and delicious. The sauce, potatoes and veggies that went along with it were all delicious as well. We shared the creme brûlée for dessert. Cocktails and breadsticks were great as well while we waited for our appetizers. Enjoyed the cozy, rustic vibe. We sat one table away from the fireplace. I don’t remember our server’s name unfortunately, he was a slender guy with glasses. He was great! Prompt, attentive and helpful. He even mentioned that they get the meat from the butcher across the street. Highly recommend West 29th, whether you are celebrating a special occasion or just want a little girls night out. This place is awesome. Can’t wait to come check out the patio when the weather allows so. Also we made a reservation, it was not that busy due to it being a Wednesday night but I would highly recommend since it is a smaller restaurant.“

“The food was delicious and the cocktails were excellent. Our server was very attentive and it was cool to not only meet the chef but the dude who made our bread. Convenient parking and a cool walk to the bathroom. Recommend the Tallow candle bread service“

“I can't recommend this charming spot more. My husband and I have stopped in half a dozen times for wines and delicious bites to eat. The wine menu is ever changing, always with unique wines. Fantastic food, always tasty. Looking forward to trying the pineapple martinis brewing up next time we stop in!“

“This place is amazing. Super thin and light pizza, dim lit atmosphere with the wood fired pizza oven as a showcase. You can sit at the bar and watch it all being made right in front of you. My only critique is maybe the pizza could be a little crispier on the bottom, but it was still delicious and is one of, if not my favorite pizza place in Denver. I'd almost describe it as New Haven crust/lightness with Neapolitan interior.“

“What a wonderful and fun place to celebrate a birthday. The staff was beyond attentive and kind. Our server, Jeffery C was so fun and made sure we were all happy. The brunch menu was outstanding. I loved all of the fresh and original menu options. Every single item was delicious. I highly recommend checking this restaurant out.“

“I got my food to go but the atmosphere was extremely great, the waitress were very friendly and polite. My host was Sophie, and she was just as pleasant in person as she was on the phone. I am from NC and wanted some Italian food, and trust me, it did not disappoint…Enjoy “

“Really enjoyed this coffee house, I have been there twice and the coffee is delicious. The only thing is that it is very popular, so sometimes it's hard to find a seat.Parking: There is a parking lot right in front and on street parking, but you may need to park a little further away when it's busy.“
