    One of my favorite pubs/breweries of all time! Up until now, I have been to this beautiful place more than a dozen times, especially for their amazing happy hour. The atmosphere is perfect and unmatched. There is even a second floor! With the fantastic decor and music, it genuinely feels like a traditional British/Scottish pub, especially with the authentic dishes and quality pints. Sometimes I just come here during the day and just read Shakespeare because the vibe is absolutely divine. Especially with COVID, I highly recommend this place to anyone who wants to “escape” to a new world in these times. I learn something new every time I go here. I brought my date here, and the server was truly amazing to us. Service was 10/10. He even gave us a mini-tour of the brewery with fun trivia on the establishment. Who would’ve guessed this place has the most extensive assortment of whiskeys in the country?! I am in love with this place, and more people should know about it! Everything from the food, interior/exterior design, alcohol selection, music, atmosphere, cleanliness, and service, one could not go wrong with Pints Pub. Every time I go, it is never busy, which is a virtue during COVID, but an absolute shame for the folks who are missing out. Truly a hidden gem of Downtown Denver. (I have to this place like a dozen times in the last 12 months)

    Great lunch service in a very British pub style restaurant. The fish and chips is very good although the fish (salmon) is grilled and not deep fried - but very delicious! And salad included makes this a very pleasant day out!

    Food is good; a warm, welcoming, comfortable atmosphere; very good service. The gravy is excellent. The blue cheese dressing has real cheese. The house vinegarette is very good. Loved the brown ale. The Sheppard's Pie is perfect for lunch. Staff is helpful.

    Came here for lunch while visiting Denver! Looked like a neat spot so we came in. The host/waiter wasn’t the most welcoming or personable. The atmosphere was very cool and you could smell the malt and ingredients in the air too! We ordered two waters and beers to start as well as an appetizer. The few beers I had were excellent and they do good with their brewing of traditional beers. The waters never came and we had to ask three times. It wasn’t busy at all here while we were there either. The house made vinaigrette was great and so was my sheep herders stew. The fish and chips wasn’t exactly what we had expected. It was neat and we’d come back

    Pints Pub was everything I was looking for. The menu has all the British favorites. Their house-brewed beers are terrific. The atmosphere warm and welcoming. They boast the best Scotch selection outside the British Isles, and it's easy to believe - the list is in a small binder on every table. Service was great. My bartender was attentive and personable. I had the London broil and thought it was prepared perfectly. I highly recommend Pints Pub.

    Love coming to this place when you want an awesome happy hour! The burgers are delicious and the beer is authentic English. Do t expect an American version of an English experience, this place has whiskey and scotch for days and cask beer as authentic as it gets.

    Came from Atlanta to see the Braves. As a lover of Scotch Whiskey, I had to stop into this bar. Ben, the owner, knows more about Scotch than I know my own mother. Over 250 bottles of whiskey, mostly single malt scotch, and a wonderful book with tasting notes / history of each bottling. Highly recommend if you're a fan of whiskey.

    Came here for dinner last night with colleagues. For appetizer we got the cheese plate. That was pretty good with the dill cheese, ham, and other assortment of stuff. The fries with the gravy on it was really good. The gravy seemed to have a heavy nutty flavor and was just delicious along with the cheese on the fries. For main plate i got the lamb skewers. The meat was well marinated but the skewers turned out too well done and extremely dry. The wasabi aioli was a nice touch for the lamb though.

    Friday evening; the food and staff were lovely. Everyone was appropriately attentive, but not overbearing. I could live on just the malt vinegar chips for the rest of my life.

    This quickly has become a favorite pub for us. The whiskey selection here is unmatchable, by far! High quality selection with a wide range in flavors and styles. Food is good as well. Not many pubs can make as quality of bangers and mash as this place does! Burgers are quality and hit the spot too! Staff is fairly chipper and delightful. The space is clean and decorated uniquely. It’s got the British vibes for sure! Awesome stop for a drink or stop in for a meal!

    As a Brit visiting Denver this place is pretty good. Excellent service and good burgers and chocolate cake. The cask ale is seriously strong by British standards but served at room temperature with a good flavour.

    Good English style beers, interesting decor, better English food than I've had at most English pubs. Definitely worth a visit. Sadly, the menu is less cheeky than it used to be (but more readable, so there's that).

    Great place, marred by some soured/off beers on the cask pump. 21 aug23 Knowledgeable and pleasant waitress and bartender/brewer. Great vibe and decor inside, though it doesn't look like much outside. I got the London broil, it was very good. Came with a nice salad. Thought it was a great price for $17.50 for what I got! This was my 2nd visit. The cask IPA was sour and not good. The nitro ESB had a funny flavor to me, but was ok. Might have been I'm not used to ESB on nitro. The Airedale Pale Ale, carbonated, was quite good. Similar to Bass Ale, and actually quite a good copy. Was here once before during 2020 covid, all the beers I tried were off and sour with brettanomyces. That was both cask ales and a bitter. Decided to give a pass due to low customer demand and trying to keep business afloat. Owner?/brewer was a nice guy. After reading a review 3 weeks old on sour casks, and visiting twice, I feel like they need to completely sterilize their cask system...handpumped seems infected and sour. Seems like a persistent infection, a shame after all the work this guy is putting in. I appreciate his effort and will continue to visit, but will have to enjoy his other beers instead of my #1 target. I basically visit English pubs in every city I visit, and search for cask ale i.e. hand-pumped bitter, pale, or IPA. About 4 cities a week, and lived in Suffolk UK for 4 years.

    This place was really good. Prob not the best for huge parties because of the space. Waitress was super busy, but very friendly. Will definitely come back if I’m in the area.

    Amazing whiskey/scotch collection. Very knowledgeable staff and great service. I did not eat anything, so cannot rate the food - but I am certainly coming back on my next visit to Denver.

  • 4/5 Nick B. 2 years ago on Google
    This place a single malt lover's heaven! They have an incredible selection of single malts and very reasonable prices. We got the Beddar Burger and the New World Fish and Chips. The fries were great, but unfortunately the Salmon and the burger fell a hair flat. Both were a bit on the dry side, but flavor was still good. I definitely will go back if I get a chance, but will try some other food. Cesar was out waiter and was delightful!

    Stopped in for a quick dinner after visiting the Denver Museum of Art a block away. So glad I did. They have their own beers. I only tried one brown ale but it was very good. I had the Lamb for dinner which was cooked perfectly and tasted great. The sides were mashed potatoes and gravy and a salad. The salad had Bleu Cheese dressing that was obviously made in house. Everything was really good including the service.

    What an absolute banger of a place. Staff was really nice and attentive. Atmosphere is great, real pub vibes! The appetizer we got was great, it was the fries with gravy/cheese perfect for sharing. The thing that makes this place 5 stars is the cask conditioned real ale. If you haven’t tried it do so when you are there. Dark star is the ale in the photo, it’s exactly what you would expect from a british pint! 100% would recommend and will be back!

    So, went to Clifford Still Museum and wound up here with some Google searches. They have two beers on Cask, and about any shot you can think of. Need I say more? This was the third place I visited within blocks, and each place was like Cheers...your name, you get it. A patron there told me that was the Golden Triangle culture. Well, I'm jealous ...

  • 5/5 Cayle H. 1 year ago on Google
    This was the best meal I have had in 10 years. The beer was excellent with British Character. The Whiskey flight was excellent, and the waiters Whiskey suggestions were better. Thr food was great from appetizer through dessert. We were there over 2 hours enjoying every minute and never feeling rushed or neglected.

    Was excited to visit, a cozy brit pub is always on point. We liked the service, the place was cozy, but on a Friday nite there may have been a more fun ambiance at the neighborhood Safeway grocery store. The food was fair. We had Lamb and fish and fish-brit pub food staples. They offered salmon for fish and chips??!! Maybe an American alternative, but yikes. Maybe 12 craft beer choices they brew, which was cool, but in sampling quite a few to find our favorite utterly failed. We cut our nite quite short here and went elsewhere.

    Beautiful, warm atmosphere and unexpectedly amazing food! We had the bangers and mash and the salmon Caesar salad and it was PHENOMINAL! The staff are friendly and bright and overall we had a fantastic experience.

  • 4/5 Mackenzie R K. 1 year ago on Google
    Food was okay, weird mix of Irish and English foods. Food and drinks weren’t particularly British, it’s what you’d find in an Americanized Irish pub. Let’s just say we’ve had much better bangers n’ mash in Colorado. The grilled chicken sandwich did hit the spot. That being said, the building and environment was really cool. It did feel like they tried a bit too hard to make it look like what Americans think an English pub looks like. But Telephone box outside was fun! Overall, it’s very close the the art museum so it was a perfect after stop. Glad we came in, good to try once. Also adding: overly expensive for what it was. 60+ for lunch for two.
