this place was amazing! my fiancé and i came in last night for dinner before zoo lights and we had a phenomenal time. i'm celiac and we're both sober and there were so many options. we had a few mocktails, the french 68 and the bee nice, which were fantastic. the bartender (whose name i never got and wish i did) even asked about adding lavender bitters to our bee nice to make sure we were okay with the trace alcohol in there, which was a level of consideration and thoughtfulness i never see. the service was top tier. the food was to die for, also. we had the fried chicken (get the full order! we ended up ordering two half orders because it was so good) and the cubano on gluten free bread. they even have a dedicated gluten free fryer!! the chicken was flavorful and juicy, the cubano was perfect and the gluten free bread was some of the best i've ever had. it didn't fall apart at all. the place was decorated for the holidays so nicely, too. there were stockings for each of the employees behind the bar which was adorable, and the bartop had the coolest pattern on it. the staff was extremely welcoming upon entry and we never felt rushed which was lovely. bonus points for the grinch playing on the tv, i love that movie lol. we would 100% come back here, and plan on it. just make sure you're prepared to park on the street!!! read more

Fantabulous!!! Went for happy hour mussels with friends and everything was great. Sidewalk patio is nice and the drink specials are really good. We ordered a lot of food and drink, the server kept good pace with our small group. The menu is appealing and everything tasted wonderful. Great value! read more

Dew Drop Inn has amazing cocktails and an amazing energy. I've been here a couple times as I have always lived within walking distance. The drinks are tasty and not too pricey. The food is decent as well, but it's probably not the reason you go here. The interior is lowly lit in a way that compliments the decor. It's trendy in a cute way. My favorite drink I've had here was in the winter season. It was a hot chocolate martini, but it was not decadent and it was clear! I'm dreaming about the next time they have it as I believe the menu is seasonal at times. Dew Drop is perfect for a lowkey night with drinks and conversation with friends. It does get busy some nights so gotta make sure you can snag a table to try their fun cocktails. read more

A great neighborhood hang spot. One of the best happy hours in Denver, 3-5:30. You can get half-price mussels, as well as great drink specials. I also enjoy their salads, which is a rare find at a neighborhood bar! Given the rising prices in many establishments, Dew Drop's prices + food and drink selection are refreshing. read more

Came in on my off day to read and enjoy some delicous food. The mocktail was phenomenal and I loved how bright the interior was.

... can I give 6 stars?! Completely blown away. I have only gushing things to say, so here goes. Decor is perfection. Really unique vibe with gorgeous pieces from the bathroom wallpaper to the light fixtures. They even had their for sale t-shirts framed. Service was phenomenal. Extremely attentive staff with good recommendations, food came out at exactly the right time and my water glass was always filled. A+ The food... WOW. It's extremely rare to have a dinner where every item is top notch, but Dew Drop Inn did it. We started with the Bangkok Style Mussel Plate (so good my husband is going to try and make his own version this week), split the shoe string fries and fried chicken for our entree (delicious and crisped to perfection) and finished with the salted caramel cheesecake which was a lovely balance of flavors. It was all just so so good. My husband's go to drink is an Old Fashioned - they made a solid one. Tasted how it should and a good ice cube to book. *Zero Proof Review: I'm on a journey exploring Denver's zero proof, mocktail, and n/a scene and came to Dew Drop Inn specifically because they were rumored to have great options - the rumor mill did me a solid! They had 6 delicious sounding "clear-headed cocktails", two NA beers and a NA prosecco. I had a hard time choosing, but landed on "Bee Nice" which was everything and then some. Bravo, Dew Drop Inn - y'all are crushing it! Overall... This place is amazing. I will absolutely be coming back, and likely soon. Don't deprive yourself any longer, fellow Yelpers! read more

Excellent uptown bar with a good happy hour and great mussels. This time was a stop for drinks. We sat at the bar, which has a new countertop since the last time I was in, an astronaut pomegranate theme. Bartenders were friendly and cocktails and beers kept flowing. I appreciated the larger size of their martini glasses. I tried a Classic Cocktail that was not on happy hour but I was too intrigued. The salted espresso martini was not as sweet and cream filled like others, which I liked. It had Amaro Nonino in it which gave it an herbaceous taste of zesty and bitter. Definitely a place to stop in if you are in the area. read more

This place is located in a neighborhood so you have to street park. It has some tables outside and inside. Very cute small restaurant. Servers were friendly. They have a lot of mocktails on the menu which is nice. I got the french dip with fries ($17). The french dip was tasty but it was a very small sandwich. It was definitely the smallest french dip I've ever had. They only provided a very small amount of au jus sauce as well- I didn't have enough to finish my sandwich. The fries were skinny and small; they were good too. My friend got the cuban with mixed greens salad. She said it was fine. read more

Dew Drop Inn... do drop in! It kind of reminds me of "There's No Way" by Lauv and Julia Michaels. "You touch" the menu and you know "there will be history between us two". Maybe, even some "regrets, but we just ignored them." Maybe, you'll try a traditional rendition or maybe you'll try an N/A remix. Maybe, you'll "want another"... maybe you'll "hold off for one sec"... but "there's no way it's not going there"... you'll order more than one drink before you grab the check! Overall, just like the song, it's cute and no one is upset when it's recommended. (: read more

Came in for restaurant week on a Sunday evening. It wasn't too busy and we were seated right away (no reservations). The food was good and portions were pretty decent. At our table we tried the haufbrau picnic, whipped ricotta dip, fries, fried chicken and scampi sandwich. We enjoyed all! Service was attentive and kind. A great place to meet friends to catch up because it's not too loud or busy. read more

Came here for a night out with coworkers, and this place is so charming! Love the extensive drink menu, and the environment is absolutely enchanting. Low lights, a lighted chandelier, and even good food. All you could ask for! Some of our group got the French onion soup (yum!) and I got the falafel bites. Delish! Their Negroni is super good, and are all their other cocktails! Check this place out! It was cold when we went, but they also have a nice patio for summer! read more

Dew Drop Inn - Cute atmosphere! - Gastropubs Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Dew Drop Inn was the perfect no-fuss spot. The food was great and very filling! I ordered a full size of the Karaage Chicken and the Shrimp Po Boy. Their karaage was the best karaage I've ever eaten- the pieces were succulent, juicy, full sized, and perfectly breaded! It's a shame I don't live closer to this spot to come back and get it! The Shrimp Po Boy was also good- I thought it was an excellent size for a meal! My friend ordered the Caesar salad and added on shrimp. Unfortunately it only came with four pieces of shrimp, which seemed like a small amount for the price of the add on. I did not get any drinks, but menu looked tasty and I appreciated that there were non alcoholic options available. My group sat inside but the outdoor patio looked lovely and we saw many dogs in the outdoor space on our way in read more

Comparative to most of Denver, the drinks here are very affordable! They offer an interesting and smaller menu with like, fried chicken and mussels and sammies, too. It's a bit all over the place but I'm here for it. The inside is dimly lit with lots of different types of lighting and beautiful stained glass around the bar. The patio has cute lil string lights but be weary, there isnt tons of seating. Ordered a ceasar with fried chicken and frites that comes with a harissa aioli. Never thought of harissa aioli and I love it! Our server was very nice if not a little wook-ish and our dinner was tasty and affordable. I'd come back. read more

Dew Drop Inn - Karagge chicken and spectacular frites! - Gastropubs Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Reasonably priced, tasty food, big portions!!! As everyone else has mentioned, this is such a gem. They don't take reservations, but we arrived at 5:30pm on a Saturday and it wasn't busy at all. This is a cocktail lounge, but they have a smaller food menu. Don't sleep on the food. We were pretty hungry, so we ordered a full meal. We ordered the fries, shishitos, karaage chicken, and the mussels. I was so excited for the mussels but they tasted frozen. Not surprising , we are a landlocked state after all. The broth was delicious and the portion was huge for $16, but I probably wouldn't order them again. Everything else was good. Chicken was perfectly crispy, shishitos had great flavor (we got a spicy batch), and how can you go wrong with fried. I will caveat that the karaage isn't super authentic, more karaage- inspired. The coating was spot on, but the flavoring is a bit too strong in soy for me, tasted like they used dark soy in the marinade. It was still good and didn't impact my rating. For drinks, we had the Double D and the Italian Pony. The Double D was really refreshing and so so good, but I would not get the Italian pony again. It was too licoricey and bitter for my tastes. The vibe was super chill and unlike most bars in Denver, you can actually have a conversation here. Please bring back the poutine, it looked delicious! read more

I am a big fan of Horseshoe so I was super excited when I saw that Dew Drop was going in closer to my house. I wasn't totally sure what to expect, but I was definitely impressed. Same cozy vibes as Horseshoe but classed up a little with way fewer bros. My sister and I went on a week night and sat at the bar. The bartender was friendly but not over the top; she answered our questions without coming over to bug us constantly. Great cocktail menu and the cocktails we did get were well executed. Great bang for your buck too! I love seeing a standard cocktail for $10 or less- sick of paying $15 for a tiny cocktail. The only food we tried were the shishito peppers which were hot and crispy with a tasty sauce. Looking forward to going back soon to try some more food and cocktails! read more

Great vibe to it and original drinks. JD behind the bar is a cool cat. And his favorite drink is called the "paper plane".

Well I've lived close enough to this place for an amount of time that makes it embarrassing I haven't been here sooner. Especially as a self proclaimed foodie. Just kidding. I don't call myself that, i'm more of a drinkie. Well the drinks here are fabulous. We had a baby flight of wine across the street but that restaurant was slammed with patrons, so we came here for some food. Of course had some more drinks though and I enjoyed the martinis. The Mediterranean plate was excellent and adequately sized even as a half size. Those carrots are a divine gift. Thank you dew drop ... I'll be back asap because I need to try those veggie cakes xoxo read more

Loved the vibes inside- slightly upscale without being too pretentious. Plenty of alcoholic and non alc beverages available. We enjoyed some draft beer and red wine, all delicious. We ordered the Mediterranean plate to share per the staff recommendations. It looked delicious but tragically the hummus was so spicy and basically inedible, and this is coming from people who normally enjoy spicy foods. The French fries were the star of the show- the aioli sauce they came with was perfection. Overall good vibes here and would definitely come back if were in the area again. read more

Came in because we were intrigued by the veggie cakes and WOW they were so freaking good! They were packed with old bay flavor and served with a lemon aioli.

Cutest little neighborhood bar! Tucked away on 17th, the welcoming patio is perfect for warm autumn evenings for a cocktail or two and some small bites! The hubs had the "I am on a patio" cocktail with cucumber infused vodka- very refreshing! The service was prompt and inviting! The inside is very cozy and inviting with dim lighting. We ordered the fried green tomatoes that were ok. They were lacking a sauce or even just some salt. However the couple next to us ordered the clams that smelled and looked divine! Their happy hour is unbeatable with 5$ cocktails from opening until 6 pm. Don't tell anyone about this place, keep it a neighborhood gem! read more

I can't believe I haven't been here before! While it's the same owners as the Horseshoe it's an entirely different vibe - it's got a dark and classy, not pretentious, old-school cocktail lounge thing going on, and I'm all for it. The variety of seating at tables, high tops, and the bar (with decent chairs) makes it a nice spot for any sort of meeting or get together. The happy hour is great too! Tasty classic cocktails with a twist. The bartenders/servers are friendly and not overly attentive but are right there when you need a refill. I didn't try any food this time, but I have no doubt I'll be back! read more
