👍👍 This is a creative oasis in a very unassuming place. Come here with your kids and have them run around the playground of junk. They will always find new and different things to do here. Come here with friends and listen to live music and sip lattes. Come here on a work day and take advantage of re...

Tiki bar
👍👍 We have been going here for a while and it’s hands down the best cocktail bar in Boulder. I’ve never had something here that I didn’t like. Not a whiskey drinker? You’ll like their whiskey drinks. Not a tequila drinker? You’ll like their tequila drinks. Not a rum drinker? You get the point!

👍👍 By far my favorite restaurant in Boulder. Beautiful interior design that cultivates a sophisticated laidback and stylized atmosphere.

The Root Kava Co.
Bar
😐 Boulders own kava spot. I've decided to update my review because my experience isn't what everyone else might say. I've been coming into the root for years even when I lived in lakewood. They used to have a pong table and that was pretty fun for a while. Chess is good here and sometimes making a new...

👍 Good new brewery in the Gunbarrel area of Boulder. They offer a good variety of beers and have a nice stage for fairly regular live music. They have a good sized indoor and outdoor seating options, as well as varied food trucks who set up shop.

😠 We requested a sample of wine due to our unfamiliarity with the winery. The server provided us with two samples for tasting, but unfortunately, they did not meet our expectations in terms of flavor and quality. Politely, we conveyed our dissatisfaction with the wine and expressed that we would not b...
