    High Five cocktail
    Carrie M.

    This is a really cozy bar in Leadville. It was a great bar to chat in, and I loved their swing chair. I got the High Five cocktail, which has gin, Aperol, and grapefruit. I was looking for a sweet cocktail, and it was pretty good. Not that sweet really, but not too bitter. They had some card games to play.

    Great shop with lots of seating! The staff was nice. We got some bagels as well. They're nice as you can build your own. We went with one plain with jam (house made) and another plain with avocado and egg! Delicious. Cute ambiance to hang out at with cute swings.

    The service was amazing. Alina greeted me with a smile and her name. Fast service and delicious mimosa and burrito. The swing seats are so fun to enjoy breakfast.

    I stopped in twice during my weekend in Leadville. Once in the evening for a cocktail and once early in the morning to grab a coffee as I headed out on my adventures. Definitely two different scenes. The evening vibe was a loud, very crowded cocktail bar. However, there was an event going on, as well as a downtown Christmas parade happening outside so my impression may not be an accurate representation of a typical evening at Before & After. After a long drive to Leadville,I opted for their espresso martini. It was okay. But, they let me drink it on the patio so I could watch the parade. Bonus points for that! When I stopped by in the morning it was much more quiet. For coffee, I could not decide between the oatmeal cookie latte and the baklava latte. I ultimately chose the latter with the help of the barista. Great choice! Very tasty! The interior is quite cozy with lots of seating options. Seems like a good place to hang out whether it's for a coffee during the day or a cozy cocktail at night.

    Our group of 4 came in for drinks before our dinner across the street. I ended up with the Sage Bee's Knees, and my husband got the non-alcoholic blueberry lavender mule and added gin. Both were very tasty and affordable! We had been to this cafe in the past to get coffee (the "before") and think it's so fun that they change it into a cocktail bar by night (the "after"). The vibes were great - lots of people in for drinks and just hanging out. We snagged a great table with a hanging swing which was super fun. For the drink itself - I haven't had many drinks with sage but it wasn't overpowering and rather delicious! Would love to try some of the bar food in the future.

    We stopped into Before and After, having been to a few places earlier in the night. We stayed until closing time, if that tells ya anything, lol. Such a cute place, amazing cocktails and the bartender was phenomenal. Let's get into it! Pretty sure we tried to talk the bartender to coming to Denver - he was fantastic. These are craft cocktails and he often shared his vision with each drink we ordered, why he choose this or that ingredient and how he highlighted one flavor over another. It was so educational and fun to hear his thoughts and then taste the creation! And man, this place! It is so stinkin cute. I'm a fan of small touches and Before After has them in spades - in literally every corner. The swings immediately caught my eye as did the cozy corner in the front window with all the sticky notes on the walls. Got kiddos and stopping by on the "before side of the day," bring them in - there are games galore. Or maybe you're stopping by on the After side for a cocktail, no worries here either. The creativity with the seating areas blew me away. I literally wanted to sit in each space and experience it all, lol. There weren't many pics, so I added a few or so. Take a look and you'll see all the cuteness I'm talking about! Ok, back to the craft cocktails, the creativity and the staff. 8 out of 5 stars. Definitely stop in, if you're anywhere near Leadville. You absolutely won't be disappointed. Don't take just my review for it; there are so many here who are also singing their praises. There's always a reason for that!

    Seating area at Before and After.

    As a mixture of a coffee bar and a bar, with good food to go along with either type of drink, we really enjoyed Before and After. It can be crowded because the space is not large, but we were able to find a place to sit and have our coffee and a light breakfast without any issues during Boom Days in Leadville. Will return the next time we're in Leadville

    really nice selection of coffee drinks and flavors. tried the baklava latte and it was so delicious. staff was nice and the vibe was cool and would be the perfect place to bring your laptop or book and chill.

    Quite the vibe! Sat on the swings and got a hot cocktail ! Super attentive bartender that made the whole experience mellow and enjoyable after a long cold day in the outdoors. Definitely a must try!

    Man what happened to this place…read more. Jasmine used to be my favorite bar in the area. They provided a varied menu with incredibly unique and delicious drinks with an upscale yet cozy vibe inside. However our last visit was anything but. Supposedly they've made the decision to drop the entire "old menu" as the bartender called it in favor for an uninspired and honestly boring Christmas menu with drinks that weren't even remotely on the level of their previous offerings. Yet the prices were actually higher than their standards. This current menu feels like something you'd pay $11 for at a dive or chain restaurant. After a relatively long wait for service, we ordered 3 drinks, having to repeat ourselves multiple times to the hostess that didn't seem to have any clue of what their drinks were called. Of the 3, none of them included the garnishes that were outlined in the menu, and one drink was completely wrong. We were allowed to keep it and had it replaced at no cost at least, but even the replacement did not have the correct garnish per the menu. I'm praying this place didn't sell out and it's just in some strange transition period between seasons but I won't be returning to check until some time after the new year and these awful drinks are gone. For now, go to Nora's.
