About

A relaxed crowd of gay guys in their 20s through 40s fills this laid-back pub in Capitol Hill. Opened in 2023 by two real-life buddies, it quickly earned a reputation for strong drinks and a great happy hour. The low-key vibe, pet-friendly patio, and dive bar feel make it an easy place to settle in for a few hours.

You'll find it open until 2am every night, with earlier opening at 11am on weekends. It's a short walk from downtown Denver and an easy starting point for a night out.

Located in Denver's Capitol Hill neighborhood, it's a short walk from downtown and surrounded by other nightlife.
