My husband was very excited to visit this bar in Denver International Airport because they served a specific bourbon that he had been wanting to try: E.H. Taylor. He said it was some of the best bourbon he's had, so there you go. One of the things that I really like about this airport is that there are little bourbon bars (and wine bars, and beer bars) throughout the airport for people who just want to stop in and grab a drink. Traveling is stressful and stupid, so sometimes you need a drink to make things right again. It's good to know that you can find quality bourbon in DEN. read more

Blue Sky Bar will do in a pinch... My husband and I find ourselves traveling at the oddest of hours for our holiday vacations. Needless to say we have bellied up to Blue Sky Bar more than a handful of times. The PROs: ++ The bartender's have always bee both friendly and attentive. ++ They're open later than most other bars on the A Concourse at DIA. ++ Adjacent to Quinzos when you need some carbs to prep for your travel day. ++ Late nights in December they're pretty quiet. The CONs: -- There's no true food menu. So don't come too hungry, especially when you have a late flight. You'll be disappointed. -- Bar seating is cramped when you are there during the regular bustling travel seasons/times. Blue Sky Bar will do when you find yourself needing to take the edge off a layover at Denver International Airport. Just keep your expectations in check - and you'll be just fine. **PRO TIP: You can get your drinks to-go when that red-eye flight is cutting it a little to close for comfort. Cheers! read more

Located in between gate A 32 and A 36. Very good inexpensive drinks. If you want a strong cocktail just ask for a Long Island ! read more

See all

Cheapest bar in the airport, y'all. Do I need to say more? Discovered it while waiting for the Capital One Lounge.

Great service #1. Bartender asks all the right questions to get your drink right. Good setting & friendly people ;) read more

Closing time is incorrect. Went for drinks only there at 1025pm we were told they are closed.

The definition of "airport bar." They had drinks and dim lighting. There was a leak in the ceiling, but that's not the bartender's fault. Of course I'd go back if at the airport. read more

misleading hours, they stop serving at 10:15 and won't do drinks to go after that either. Change your hours to what's relevant for 90% of people read more

The bartenders are hustling, and the pours aren't weak. It's pricy, but what airport bar isn't? Can't knock it for that one bit. I've got a few hours to kill, so a few stiff drinks isn't a bad idea. Don't mind if I do. read more

thought the staff were nice but after breaking my boyfriends ID after it was already broken and serving us at first they refused to serve us after we returned bc our flight was again canceled for even longer. Matt specifically, who I liked at first, accused me of yelling at him when I asked him for 1 beer for myself even though my ID is in tact. overpriced, rude and unsympathetic. Disappointing to say the least. read more

Terminal A. UGH. I always feel like there should be more options? I have ended up grabbing a few brews to start off vacation or kill time before connecting flights at Blue Sky Bar at least a dozen times. Beer list is ok. Pricing is perhaps a bit cheaper then other places on the concourse (by a dollar or so). The view of the planes outside is nice. Overall, a pretty legit spot to kill time at Terminal A. read more

Rude bartender didn't even give me a moment to settle in, with my service dog and my luggage before telling me my dog needed to be placed on the floor. Service dogs are allowed under ADA regulations to be held by the handler and he insisted due to health code she had to be placed on the floor. Blatant disregard for ADA regulations or human decency. read more

The worst service ever! Save your time and money on this place The bartender Jason who we ordered food with was insulting to us and a smart ass, telling us if we didnt order alcohol we shouldnt be at his bar. Manager was no help, just stood and watched it all and said nothing even when we asked him how he could allow this type of behavior. I see other comments here naming this same guy - Obviously not going to be corrected. We are great tippers to the service industry and would have given him a great tip on our food and gladly moved to a table if needed - Instead a ZERO tip for a person who should never interact with the public read more

This is a good spot if your gate is nearby, the bar is decent sized & so is the table sitting area. Its just steps away from a quiznos but you have to order food from there at the bar & then the bartenders bring you your quiznos chow. I really like getting airport drunk & people watching & this is a perfect spot for doing that, the bartenders never let my glass be empty for very long before refilling me. They're friendly folks too, Ive been here before & will continue to get airport drunk & people watch at this 1 as long as its in my terminal near my gate read more

The sexiness oozing out Jason is undeniable. His skills as a bartender are unparalleled. Come on in for all the good vibez. He has much rizz it's not even funny. read more

Great service. Great prices. 5/5. Highly recommend. Fully recommend- the only place I will eat/drink at in their part of the airport going forward. read more

We stopped here on our first layover, loved the high seats at the window so you have a nice view. We ordered Quiznos sandwiches and they were delish! The bartenders were laid back. read more

This place sucks even by Denver Airport standards! There was an annoying woman standing at the door to remind you not to expect any service and the protocols due to Covid. The fat bartender was obnoxious and unfriendly. After having a drink here and feeling that I wasn't getting the service I deserved, I decided to just go into town since I had a long layover. Denver isn't exactly the friendliest town and completely infested with the homeless vermin everywhere. I finally found a bar in town where I could get some service and no abuse like this place, but avoid if you don't have to go here. You will not be pleased with the treatment you get here and they close at 6 PM (yes, 6 PM!) read more

As a visitor, we enjoyed our quick drink at Blue Sky Bar. We were between flights and didn't order food. The 9 oz pour is a nice option when you're killing time. The bar staff was super friendly and prompt which are key components for a good airport drink. read more

Great beer selection , especially Dry dock apricot blonde. Fact that menu is from Quiznos makes food very decent and prices affordable. Chicago style dog, chili soup and steak sandwich that's what I had and it was great. read more

Good for a quick drink while waiting on your flight. Typical airport prices, inflated of course. But the service is friendly and fast. They have daily specials, just ask. We got the special, which was a double shot of crown royal Apple for $7. And a mojito for 10ish. The mojito was light and refreshing. Not overly syrupy like a lot of places. And they definitely pour a fair amount read more

Horrible ... I was just at this airport asked the waiter for a recommendation.. he had a horrible attitude, lacked charisma!! Ordered a simple drink. He proceeded to walk away. I continued my conversation on the telephone, only to have the waiter return and say if I was going to have a horrible attitude he was not going to serve me. I asked the waiter what are you talking about. You don't even know who or what I'm talking about. This waiter argued, refused to give his name. Refused to call a manager and refused to serve me. This is horrible service, and wasn't even served. I've visited many fun spots in airports, as a traveling nurse, and this by far has got to be the worst place ever. Sadly after a long worked contract. read more

Tia a shame that they were the only bar that n the A gate of the terminal. I hated having my arm twisted to a place where the service was mediocre, and the drinks seemed like they were watered down. Well guess they can afford to do that. Also there probably would be more room at the bar if the female bartender would assist in cleaning up the glasses. read more

We only had about 15 minutes before boarding. The bartender was prompt and informative about the drink special for the day. I enjoyed my Expresso flavored vodka with added half/half on ice. read more

Tried to order drinks and dinner but no one had the time to acknowledge me much less take my order.

Awful experience. Went in and ordered a Diet Coke and and Quiznos breakfast Sandwich. The bar tender Jason J stood over me and waited for me to give him my card. He told "if all I was going to drink was a Diet Coke and a Quiznos sandwich then I would need to pay my bill and leave the bar open for alcohol drinkers. The bar had several open seats. Hard to support eating establishments with crappy attitudes like this. read more

Ehh. Only place to grab a drink if you have a red eye. Service was less than hospitable. I don't think I ever saw our bartender smile. Large selection of whiskeys and beers. I would only come back if I had a red eye. read more

Really liked this place to stop in for a quick beer before our flight. Definitely recommend

Yes, this place gets it! I don't travel to Colorado for crap on tap! Lots of great Colorado beer on tap including my favorite Left Hand Milk Stout Nitro which poured and tasted excellent! Thanks for sending me back to the East Coast in style! read more

"Those of us who saunter up to airport bars in search of liquid breakfast is a different breed. We fly hard and in our minds, we fly fast, but that's just the booze talking. In reality, we are embracing the same damn escapism that everyone needs to get through the average life.  Airport bars are an essential part of travel and I am grateful for their presence on this troublesome July morning."

Great place for drinks, but Jason is horrible. If someone orders something they don't carry, he says "don't have that". Which I would usually find amusing, but it sounds like he just hates people. No suggestion on what they do have, just a rude statement with zero customer service. My drink order is super simple, and I ordered it 20 minutes ago, he has ignored me the whole time and I'm sitting here with nothing. He has helped at least 10 other people instead of just pouring my drink. It must be difficult to find a bartender that can pass a background check for the airport. If the manager or owner listened to him for 5 minutes, they'd fire him on the spot. read more

Drinks tasted soooo watered down and sooo over priced. Can't wait for the day there's a decent bar in an airport

Friendly service and nice view while waiting on your flight. If you need a drink and have time to kill, check out this place. It's on A terminal at Denver airport. read more

What a crappy bar and experience. What kind of bar doesn't serve food? Seriously, you're expected to order from Quizno's, which has a line of 20+ people. What kind of bar will never see me or my money again? You may have guessed it's Blue Sky Bar. read more

This "bar" is really depressing. And it's attached to a Quiznos. Whenever I'm at DIA, I will definitely avoid this place, as they're quite a few better options nearby. The beer and drink selection is very, um, domestic. Best scotch? Johnny Walker Red -- keep your blends to yourself, bro. I have to feel for the bartenders, though, who have a constant flux of cantankerous, tipsy travelers to deal with. I definitely didn't forget get to tip. read more

I suppose there's a good selection of beers. There's no food, but there's a Quiznos next door. So that's not so bad. I'm rating them 2 stars because I'm sitting at the bar (not too busy) 4 bar tenders for about 24 bar stools... And I can NOT get a drink! When I finally got a beer, the tender was not friendly bordering on pretty rude. She asked if I'd please close out because she was clocking off...I put a 10 down on a 7.50 bill and got no change. I'll definitely be avoiding this place from now on. read more

Poor service. Bartender is rude and seems like he doesn't wanna be there or serve anyone. Did I mention the employees are rude? They will stereo type you based on what you're wearing. I came in in beach wear because I'm flying to Cancun and the bartender tried to make me feel like I was broke.. nah Im on my way to Cancun and you're not buddy Sorry you hate your job; wait not sorry Don't know his name but he was balding and overweight, avoid this guy read more
