Secret menu Goooooddddd
Susan L.

The food truck outside has great fries and a good selections for sandwiches and more. The brewery itself is so nice! They have a huge beer garden were groups can hang there with their kids or just with friends. The other side of the brewery also has a nice patio and outdoor area that is very nice to hang out with friends and family. Very nice and big! What is best is their drinking selection is plenty and good tasting too!

Here's another one of those beers that I'm intimately familiar with, at home in Texas. I did not know it was brewed in Colorado. As usual, I sat at the bar, and tried, and quaffed, a few beers. Service was good, as some recommendations were made that I might have missed. I liked the vibe here. Casual and laid back. There was also a food truck. Oh, and scored more stickers too!

Great brew!! I had a nitro Russian stout. Delicious. My friends had a Lemon Drop brew. Excellent variety and selection with the beer. There were games available and we play "Hearts" until they closed at 8pm. This was my first time there and I will definitely be back. They have a food truck outside. Parking is in a lot. Bathrooms were reasonably clean.

The Left Hand milk stout remains our favorite beer, and we will always get it when we find it on tap anywhere. So of course, swinging through Longmont on our way south from Estes Park was a no brainer. This was our second visit, and it was just as good as the first. Arriving late afternoon on a Wednesday, we weren't surprised to see the parking lot was mostly full. The inside seating was fairly full as well, and we ended up at a small table in the back of a side room but moved to a different table a little after arriving. They always have a wide variety of beers on tap to sample. I tried the French toast milk stout but ended up sticking with our old reliable. Bar service is friendly, the wait for a pour is short, and the beer is always delicious and reasonably priced. You can't go wrong here. They've even got a good selection of merch, and my wife found a new shirt to add to her growing collection. No doubt we'll be back again.

Service was amazing! The two bartenders who were working on a Monday at noon were super friendly and helpful! We were so overwhelmed by the number of beers they had on draft. They let us try several of the beers before we made a decision on which glass we wanted. I was surprised that I loved the chai stout and the coconut stout, since we came in thinking we were going to get to original! It was nice out so we opted to sit outside in their patio, which has 5-6 tables. Since we got there early, parking was not a problem, but they do have another lot across the street. Highly recommend this spot on your brewery tour!

I'm visiting Colorado for a wedding and our hotel was a short 5-7 minute drive away. This place has my favorite milk stout and had to come visit. I only had enough time for 1 beer but the gentleman who helped me was so nice. He gave me a sample of almost every beer and explained the difference between the CO2 beer and nitro beer. The have a peanut butter milk stout, the nitrous being "creamy peanut butter" and the CO2 being the "crunchy peanut butter". I was a crunchy fan myself! Overall this place is small but has excellent beer and fantastic service. Highly recommend.

Visited the beer garden with the family. It was a nice day they had a mixture of bands preforming and the food truck was definitely yummy. They had the hot dog truck there on that day. I really enjoyed the different seating areas and the staff were really friendly and quick to pour you a beer. They also had corn hole and lots of tables with umbrella. They are also dog friendly!

Highly recommend going for Poses & Pints Their beer tastes great and the food truck outside is amazing.

Beer flight

Left Hand is a really fun place! Their large tap selection means there is literally something for everyone - even the picky people like me who only like very specific kinds of beer. I got a flight since I couldn't decide which one I wanted to try. Didn't spend a ton of time here but it was enough to enjoy the place and the beers. I also appreciate that they have cocktail options as well. If I were staying longer, I would loved to have tried one of their cocktails. One thing I will say is that I am really happy to see a brewery that does not allow dogs in their taproom. I know I'm in the minority, but eating and drinking around a bunch of dogs will turn me off of a place. It's part of the reason I don't always love going to breweries as so many of them allow dogs inside. They had an awesome selection of merchandise as well. Plus, they sell art by local artists and crafters, which I thought was very cool! Great experience with a nice taproom and friendly staff.

Can you find the left hand? Just sayin

Great service, beer was awesome as expected. What a treat. And.. and, yes, I found the left hand, good luck mofos

Lefties at left hand

My boyfriend has been a fan of Left Hand for years now, so it was an exciting adventure being able to stop here after a hike in CO. We're also both lefties so we especially love the name. I had the triple Belgian which was outstanding. We enjoyed hanging outside on the covered patio. Appreciated the shade on a hot sunny day. We left with some cool merch to take home. Jealous of those who live closer and can go here more often! Cheers.

I have always wanted to visit Left Hand as I've been a Nitro Stout lover for years. Left Hand was the first nitro stout I tried and I've been hooked for years, never quite finding other stouts as wonderful as their Nitro. Going to the brewery was awesome. They had a stunning taproom and an endless amount of craft brews to try. To our surprise their beer garden was open and featured live music in a gorgeous outdoor event space to bring the community together over great beers and local music. Their team was knowledgeable and made great recommendations on which beers to try and what to expect from some of their more unique styles (the ginger beer was incredible!). Definitely a spot to visit if you're a fan of craft beers, excited to come back for one of their beer garden events!

Their peanut butter stout is undefeated in my book, so I could not wait to drink it from the source. I couldn't have been happier. This was one of the best stops we made in the greater Denver area. It still feels old school and even cozy! It's what I wish my local watering hole to be. They offer a lot of merch, a lot of seating and smiles! What more could you want? They had a food truck out front. They were also advertising a market the following day (that I wish I could have attended). Cannot wait to return!

Flight....All four were delicious!

Ask the Community - Left Hand Brewing Company

Do you have TVs to watch college bowl games?

No, they don't have any TVs. This is a cool place to have a beer and lots of space so that would have been a bonus because we wanted to watch some college football when we visited but not a single tv in sight.

Dog friendly patio?

Yes. We have an area called "The Outer Rim" that is dog friendly. Just check in at the main entrance and our beertenders will get you a table in that area.

Curious as to why they close at 9pm? Thank you 😊

I'm sure they want to get home to their families! :)

Is there live music on monday nights?

Hello! No, we do not, generally, have live music on Monday nights. We do have live music some Saturdays and most Sundays. You can always check our Facebook page to see all… Read more

They have a great beer and food selection on the menu. I had a tall Smithwicks and it met my expectations (it was very good). The server was very friendly and pleasant. She was attentive and casual about the whole thing. The inside has the appropriate Irish Pub vibes. Very nice. I had the NE chowder to start and it was delicious. It was slightly more watery than I had anticipated but still had plenty of flavor and the garnishes were enjoyable. The steak salad was excellent. It was a very generous portion size and the steak was cooked exactly as I wanted it: medium rare. This was a very good experience across the board. The meal was in a good price range and I feel I got my money's worth.

This place was so friendly & Andrea made us first-time visitors feel very welcomed. Open Mon-Thu 11am-9pm, Fri & Sat 11am-10pm, Sun 11am-8pm. Happy hour 2-5pm. Free public lot on the backside along this busy eclectic neighborhood. Highly recommended as we went back here two more times during our five days in Longmont, CO. Thank you again to Andrea & Doug for great friendly service. Slainte! Nick & Liz, Albany, NY, USA

We went here for dinner & drinks Sun 8/24/25 on our last evening of our trip to Colorado. A neigborhood gastropub in a renovated 1915 grocery store. They offer a bar with a great selection of premium craft cocktails, whiskies, local beers, & wine. We sat at the bar and ordered our first drinks from the affable Tony S. And it was Happy Hour. Bell's Two Hearted Ale ($8) & Pinot Grigio ($6) - Nice! We looked over the limited menu with selections you won't find in most places. We had a cup of tomato basil soup ($7), mac & cheese ($14) starter/shareable - English red cheddar, parmesan, cavatappi, crispy prosciutto, mushrooms-excellent & piping hot, & steak frites ($34) - grilled 8 oz Angus, rosemary and smoked blue cheese butter, house-cut shoestring fries - perfectly cooked, large portion. Dessert was a delicious cheese cake. If we lived nearby we would certainly try other menu items. The bar has a movie loop on the TV produced by the co-owner. It is a facinating film highlighting classic cartoons, highlights from old movies, & all the glamour & kitsch from the '60 & ' 70s movie & TV. Quite the conversation starter. There is indoor & an outside patio for relaxing. Note: limited parking, but plenty of street parking, just watch for the signage. Hours: Sun-Thu 4-9:30pm, Fri & Sat 3-10pm, Sun brunch 9am-1pm. A serendipitous find which was friendly & fun, with great drinks & food. Staff is excellent. Thanks again to Tony S. We had a fun time. Nick & Liz, Albany, NY USA

While we allow children... we are not a family restaurant. I'm shocked that after you were enlightened to our lack of a high chair you went postal, bad reviews, ranting on next door, calling the tavern and yelling at the staff... all because you wanted a high chair... you have official earned your full KAREN badge. Wear it well and take your attitude elsewhere Response to the owner****POOR management. Questionable treatment of women with your videos. Reviews where people felt they were treated poorly because of how they looked. NO customer service skills and a jerk that is the most entitled karen of us all running the show. I can't wait to watch you fail. The issue is not children. The issue is your rudeness I graciously offered to delete my reviews. If you would just admit that you were rude, but your ego is too big for that. The weight of that ego will crush you. And don't worry about my children I will teach them to stand up for themselves just like I am.YOU CAN LEAVE THEM OUT OF IT. I would hope you would do the same but expect you would just lay down and take it.

Imagine my surprise when something hitherto unknown to me popped up, Collision Brewing Company. Wow, gotta go. Great place with unique offerings, I particularly liked the "Oil Skick", a black IPA. Photo attached. But I was impressed by the great service at the bar, and the menu. I'll be uploading some menu pictures in a bit, but what really caught my eye were the pierogis!

Collision's offerings looked promising. Dining near the bar was full, so we got a whole room with windows aplenty to ourselves. Our waiter modeled good service. He greeted us quickly, brought waters before I could pick a beer, and quickly returned with my suds and took our order. We strolled down a hallway to the restrooms, passing games in the cool blue light. The bathroom was clean. Urinals are half kegs. I cracked up, then explained them to him. The expansive menu looks surprisingly diverse. I could have had pierogies, birria tacos, chicken fettuccine, PB & J, or one of the selections of burgers and sandwiches. I chose the French Dip on Asiago bread with a cup of green Chile. I could only eat half a sandwich, but knew leftovers would be gone by morning. This was one of the better French Dips I have had in a while. Green Chile? I came here from New Mexico and am not often impressed. This stuff was truly hot and had great flavor. Win win. The kids' steak plate has to be one of the best values I have seen eating out in Colorado. $10.95 w side. It stood out and did not disappoint. One of them was more well-done than medium rare, but stayed tender. Great seasoning. Beer: I l checked ratings, finding their highest-rated brew, GTA, a barrel-aged rye stout that definitely exceeded expectations. I agree with the high ratings. Shout out to our server for letting an adult who wasn't very hungry grab a kids' steak. Shout out to the prices, which would provide value even with lesser food. My sandwich came at a 2019-20 Denver price, at least $5 less than equally good comps in 2025. 4.5 stars round up to five. Recommended.

I was a little irritated, as it was slightly breezy, but I got over that quick once I tried the food. We had the steak frites, the Thai pork tacos, an old fashioned, and the chocolate decadence for dessert. The steak frites were great- the truffle fries were seasoned with garlic, and served with a great cream sauce. The steak was perfectly cooked rare. Super tender. But the tacos absolutely stole the show. Sweet and spicy with a touch of crunch, and the potato fries were stellar too! The old fashioned really let the whiskey shine, with just a touch of citrus. I think I would try a different dessert though- the decadence was good but didn't quite live up to the tacos. The interior was decorated very cute- mid century modern mixed with plants and some neon signs that said cute things. Our server was excellent- very friendly and on top of it. Overall, I would unquestionably come back next time I am in the area, and suggest you go there too. It's totally worth it.
