    Custom drinks!!
    Mary Kate K.

    Accidently went here on New Year's Eve and was such a great decision! The bartenders were super friendly and allowed us to request drinks based on any recommendation. My friend asked for a Barbie themed tequila drink and there was edible glitter in it! Not to mention $5 slices of pizza will be back

    Amazing drinks and amazing bartenders! Drinks are affordable for how delicious they are. I'll be back on my next Denver adventure for sure.

    Custom craft cocktails mixed just for you!

    Super cool venue. My son had already been so we knew what to expect. It's small, dark and gives a bit of a dive bar vibe, BUT the bartenders are talented! The idea here is that they will ask you some questions about what you like, don't like, etc... and then mix something up unique for you. If you don't like it, no worries, so there is no pressure. We found the bartenders to be a ton of fun, and their concoctions were in point and delicious. Give this place a try!

    We made reservations at another bar, but the estimate was over an hour on a Sunday. It was the best thing that could have happened. The nearby bar has fully captured my heart. There are no menus, and that's the best possible thing. You pick a spirit and you tell Jonathan and Rachel what you want and they will find something you love. We got engaged the day before we came here and they treated us like family. The drinks are unreal and the service is even better. Any time I'm in Denver I'll make sure I make it here. Best cocktails. Best personalities. We LOVED it!

    Open for a little over a month, Nearby is already dialed in on an inviting space, great location, but most importantly, amazing service and delicious cocktails. Located right on Platte, it's the perfect spot for pre or post dinner drinks. There is a long bar space with a few little tables. They do have small bites available including a cute charcuterie board to soak up some of your drinks. I always appreciate when a bar has something in case I choose to hang here for the night. This is especially easy to do in this case as I was well taken care of on my first venture in. Jonathan was insightful and helpful, friendly and engaging. We talked spirits and drinks and he made me the best old fashioned I have ever had. (Believe me, I have had my fair share!) Check them out, tell Jonathan I sent you, have a few drinks! Maybe I will see you there, as I will definitely be back! Cheers!

    A favorite local neighborhood bar!! Great cocktails and great vibes! The bartenders keep it fun. They can craft all the popular cocktails or you can tell them what spirit and flavors you like and they'll whip something up. They always have good music too. Grab a spot at the bar if you can or one of the little tables for a more intimate vibe.

Bedlam was recommended to us for late night drinks by staff working in one of the restaurants at our hotel. During our short stay in Denver, we went to Bedlam twice. The first time was around 11:30 on a Thursday night. We had a few cocktails along with a cheese and charcuterie plate. The second time was around 12:30 on a Saturday night when we came in for a night cap. The first time we came in, it wasn't too busy, and we were encouraged to sit wherever we wanted. The bar was full so we chose a small table. Our server gave us menus, though specials were written on a chalkboard above the bar. We each tired a couple of cocktails and had a shot called the Master Shot. We also chose the make-your-own charcuterie board. Our favorite drink was the Woo Girl, which allowed us to choose our spirit of choice. I chose gin and my friend chose tequila. When we returned a couple of nights later, we knew already we were going to order the Woo Girl cocktail. It was packed on a Saturday night, but there was a small table in back where they seated us. This bar is more for spending time with the friends you come with, rather than mingling, as staff seats you at a table. It doesn't seem like they offer standing room or just squeezing in, though maybe we just didn't experience that. That said, all in all, I really enjoyed Bedlam and recommend it to anyone going to Denver.

    Great cocktail bar with a few unique menu items…read more Came in on a trivia night and staff was nice albeit a bit slow. My friends and I tried a number of the signature cocktails and had a few hot toddys that were super good. I'm personally a big gin and soda fan and loved ther housemade tonic that was in their classic G&T. Did not try any of the food but the dawgs were definitely would be tempting if I was hungry. Loved the decor and the plants all up in the space. The space is a bit more dimly lit and I think of a reasonable volume for a date. Would love to come back and spend some more time here.

That's when I came across Dearly Departed and I'm so glad I did. We arrived right when they opened at 5pm and were able to walk in and be seated immediately. The speakeasy is tucked into the underground portion of the restaurant, which adds to the charm. The space is beautifully decorated, moody, intimate, and effortlessly upscale. It truly sets the tone the moment you walk down. We ordered two spritzes and a charcuterie board, and both exceeded expectations. The drinks were refreshing, perfectly balanced, and felt elevated without being overcomplicated. But the real star was the charcuterie board. For $20, it was an incredible value, stacked with a variety of meats, cheeses, fresh veggies, nuts, and peppers. The freshly grilled bread was a standout touch, and the portions were more than generous. Every bite felt thoughtfully curated, and there was something new and delicious in every corner of the board. Between the ambiance, the quality of the drinks, and the impressive food, Dearly Departed delivered an experience that felt both cozy and refined. I'd absolutely recommend checking it out for the atmosphere alone. I'm already looking forward to going back and trying more from their menu.

    I am very torn about this review, especially considering all the other rave reviews…read more.. Love the ambiance and love the staff -- it's a really cool addition to the neighborhood. Cozy spot for some classy bites and cocktails. I think I probably got off on the wrong foot when I asked for sparkling water instead of flat and found out it was $7 per personal mini bottle (and they don't have club soda). My first time encountering that in Denver in the last 14 years... The cocktail concept is cool: pick a classic, slightly updated, or super creative version from 5 categories (martini, old fashioned, sour, spritz, highball). The spicy mango sour (with mezcal) was awesome -- although I expected egg white on a sour. The martinis were ok... a bit of a let-down in today's collection of Denver martinis at other local spots (think anchovy, sour cream and onion, holy trinity, and old bay). The food was also hit or miss. We loved the cauliflower/potato Bravas with the slightly spicy sauce, as well as the croquettes and their sauce. The tuna crudo was super bland, which is disappointing for $19.

I had the eggs Benedict with duck, which was savory and tender- would get again, even if it was a little small for a $22 meal. I also got a mimosa and a raspberry beret- the beret was delicious and served with the coolest presentation- they used dry ice to create smoke! The decor is very maximalist mid century- love it! Great for a date or if you are impressing someone. Don't let the location scare you off- everything around it looks closed but once you get inside it's absolutely beautiful. I can't end this review without gushing about the staff. I had a weird fainting episode and scared the crap out of my friend- our server and the rest of the staff were on it, so sweet and helpful.

We also ordered appetizers of the burrata and the sweet potato croquette. Burrata is always fantastic! The croquettes were good. They were doing Star Wars themed drinks for May the 4th so Star Wars was playing in a screen (that you could barely see due to the sun). They both got the red velvet espresso martini topped with whipped coffee. It was cute but very sugary. Service was fantastic! The staff was so nice!! Maybe I'm just not used to inflation yet but the prices for everything just felt so expensive!!

For the pop-up, the theme was Apres-Ski, which is trending heavily right now. The holiday design and decor was perfect for Milly. While they had a holiday drinks menu donned with mulled wine, buttered rums, and egg nog, which is what I ordered, the regular menu Milly offers was also available. This menu consists of several "throwback" cocktails from previous decades. You can't go wrong with a gimlet. Milly's is always busy but the servers are fantastic and are very knowledgeable about all their drinks and are happy to help with drink recommendations based on your preferences.
