Melissa H.

This little neighbor bar and restaurant offers great cocktails and yummy food. They have every kind of whisky/bourbon you can think of and they really know how to make a drink. All their burgers come cooked exactly to order and are very flavorful. I love their fries, they have the perfect crisp while still being soft inside and they also have a great blue cheese-balsamic chip appetizer, made to order. The cherry on top is the friendly service and the cozy atmosphere with TVs all about showing different sports.

Update: I got my chance to dine in here. This place is known to have great burgers but I ordered chicken sandwich! Our waitress said it was a great sandwich and she wasn't lying! The rest of my family did order burgers and thoroughly enjoyed every bite of those burgers. The burger on the kids meal is pretty darn big too! The other thing they are known for is bourbon! And what a selection they have! Huge list with many options if that is what you want. They do have cocktails too - none of them appealed to me so I went with a red wine. The bartender was very generous with my pour! The restaurant is somewhat small and pretty noisy but they had a few families in there in addition to the bourbon and burger lovers.

The Mushroom-Swiss Burger

Seriously would have never known this place existed if it wasn't for the yelp! I was jonesing for a burger and fries so I stopped here during lunch and was surprised to see that they have lunch specials! Burger and fries for under $12 and it was tasty! I sat at the bar and ordered the mushroom Swiss with fries, it was fresh, cooked perfectly and basically the burger I had been dreaming of. It's a little past Southlands east on Smoky Hill so more of a spot known by locals but it's worth the drive if you're looking for a solid burger.

The food was amazing. Made a point of stopping here when I was back in town. Those balsamic bacon and blue cheese fries are incredible. The burger was also so wonderful. Everything is great quality and fresh and flavorful. Small location that's dominated by the large bar but manages to be comfortable and inviting. Service was great.

Chili.

I went by today and got the Odds Maker Burger and a Bowl of Chili. My Burger was huge and juicy, cooked just right, Medium and it came with fries. which were very Tasty and Delicious. The Chili was not too spicy and came with sour cream and cheese. The waitress and bar tender were very personable and helpful. I will definitely be back.

Shout out to Yelp (yes, again), for taking all the mystery out of finding a great place to eat, in a distant part of Aurora. We showed up on Christmas Eve Eve and waited just a tad. Not bad for a Friday night paired with a holiday weekend. Everyone ordered burgers and an assortment of sides, mostly fries. My friend and I veered off and had sweet potato fries and tater tots, but that aside, this was an all American meal. Everyone raved. Even the gluten free bun was stellar - and if you're serious about GF, you know this is a big deal. Each burger was cooked to order, seasoned well and let me say, the green chili burger was fabulous. Drinks? My friend and I ordered whiskey sours. Sooooo good. Gorgeous presentation also. The guys ordered an Old Fashioned and whiskey with one small ice cube - also made to order. Tasty. If it weren't for the hour drive, we'd be back more often. When we're back in the area, you know it, they're book marked to return.

Oddsmaker burger bacon super crispy and delicious

Stopped by on a Thursday evening and where able to get a table fairly quickly . Our server was friendly and we grabbed a couple of Elysian space dust ipas . If you like a hazy beer highly recommend . We ordered a Rocky Mountain chicken club , green chili cheese fries , buffalo wings , the oddsmaker burger with bacon and a fresh angus patty and was delicious and a mushroom Swiss chicken burger with lots of mushrooms and was perfectly cooked . Will definitely be back.

Bonbon and bar

This burger joint has great ambiance and delicious food! We were seated quickly and ordered the tall pilsner. The food came out fast and our burgers were cooked perfectly. The restaurant was not too noisy and was perfect for having a conversation. Will definitely be back when I'm back in town!

I'll be honest I have been excited to try this place for a while, and today I was craving a good burger so I figured it would be perfect. Unfortunately it was very disappointing overall. We got a burger and grilled cheese, the burger had almost no flavor (save for the sauce, which still couldn't carry the whole meal) and my medium request came out well done. It wasn't dry but just bland. Same goes for the BYO grilled cheese, only a few slices of cheese and weak in the added bacon. It came with a soup side which was the worst, not sure if it was a campbells soup can heated up or if it wasn't, if that would have been better. We also got green chili fries that were average at best. For a place with burger in the name, you'd hope that it would have decent food but they really missed on this visit. Not sure if we'll be back out this way in the future.

The Collector! With sweet potato fries!

Came here for the first time and we loved it. The fried mushrooms were killer. Blue cheese could be a bit more blue- cheesy.

I have a weakness for a great whiskey bar. My wallet knows it. My liver knows it. My wife…read moredefinitely knows it. Sometimes I show up hunting for rare pours. Other times I'm just in the mood for a cocktail that reminds me why I don't waste my time at places that think whiskey and cola is "craft." This visit was all about the cocktails, and Seven Grand absolutely delivered. Josh, our bartender, was running the room like a conductor leading an orchestra of happy whiskey drinkers. He asked what we liked, made a couple of recommendations for Old Fashioneds based on our preferences, and absolutely nailed it. Every drink was balanced, flavorful, and dangerously easy to sip. The guy knows his whiskey, knows his cocktails, and somehow still manages to make everyone at the bar feel like they're his only customer. The whiskey selection is enough to make a bourbon nerd lose all sense of financial responsibility, but surprisingly, we escaped without needing to refinance the house. If Josh doesn't own Seven Grand, someone should probably look into fixing that. Until then, I'll keep showing up to "try just one drink"... knowing full well that's a lie I tell myself every single time. Highly recommend. Just don't blame me when two hours mysteriously disappear.

They've gotten do much busier though. There must've been over 30 people at the bar getting drinks. But the 4 bartenders at the bar were slinging them out quickly. Even though they were fast the drinks were extremely well made and the customer service wad amazing. The ambiance was great!! Everyone was here to have a good time. But no one was overly rowdy or raucous. People were friendly and conversational but stayed in their lanes also. Even though all these years have passed. And the pandemic has ravaged many businesses. The quality and service here still makes this place one of the best whiskey bars around!!!

We visited Whiskey Lodge on Friday night after hearing there was a new owner. It had been a while…read moresince our last visit, so we were excited to check it out. The night started fun, but things quickly took a turn. From where we were sitting (not part of the group involved), I noticed a man becoming aggressive toward another nearby group--yelling at them and eventually shoving someone, which led to a fight. As someone simply watching it unfold, it was pretty clear who escalated the situation. What was most surprising, though, was how it was handled. The owner appeared to side with the individual who initiated the confrontation and ultimately removed the group instead. Later, we heard that the man involved was actually a friend of the owner. From an outside perspective, the group that was asked to leave seemed calm and was minding their business before things escalated. Watching everything unfold--and seeing how it was handled--left a really negative impression. Unfortunately, that experience made the environment feel uncomfortable and biased, which is disappointing because the night had started on such a positive note.

Went here for bingo a few weeks ago. Fun atmosphere, sat on the patio. Server was nice but they…read moredefinitely have some kinks to work out. First let's talk about their wings: their Cajun wings were BOMB! Cooked perfectly, seasoned heavily like I like it and the flavor was great! I think they may be the best wings I have found in Castle Rock. The pizza was one with prosciutto & pickled onions. So good! The crust is on point. Cooked beautifully. Just trust me on that. The server took our order but never put it in so while our friends ate and drank we got nothing. Once we were able to track down the server, she blamed the kitchen which left a bad taste in my mouth (I'd prefer she just admit she forgot to put in the order) and when my friend's pizza came out 12-15 mins later, it was the wrong pizza altogether. She got pepperoni. So they had to remake it. They still get 4 stars because the food was awesome. I would definitely go there for takeout and plan to soon!

We showed up about 10 minutes before our start time, met our guide Michelle, and looked around the property and gift shop. Michelle led us through the distillery, which is a pretty small operation, teaching us about their distilling process and the history of the company. The tastings were fantastic and it felt like the appropriate number for the 60-70 minutes of the tour. After the tour we got a drink at the bar to try another whisky that wasn't sampled on the tour. All the staff were friendly, knowledgeable, and laid back on our Sunday evening visit. They have other events that sound really fun to come back for!

Drinks in hand we headed back to spend time with Forrest, who took us on a brief tour of the facility. He gave us the history of how Stranahan's started. It was interesting to learn that they bottle by hand. We came to our tasting set up. At each couple there were jars with items to smell that would be aromas or tastes we would experience, like rose, leather, tobacco, and cinnamon. There were four tastes paired with caramel, cheese, chocolate and fig. Each pairing brought out different flavors in the whiskey samples. We both had a lovely time and at the end, I had my husband pick a favorite for me to get for him for his birthday. Great experience!
