Sure it's a bar in a bus station but really, it's so much more! Weekends are probably pretty hectic but if you're looking for a chill vibe, lots of comfy seating, and possiblly some people watching on a weekday (we were here around 9pm-10pm Monday night,) then this is just the place to grab a drink or two. Many local beers on tap, great assortment of cocktails, few different wine options as well. Didn't try any food but menu looks like it has above-average bar food and something for every taste. Happy Hour: Monday through Friday -- 4pm - 6pm * Select Draught Beer for $5.50 (reg. $7-10) * House Wines for $7.50 (reg. $8.50-$9.00) * Well Spirits for $7 (unsure of regular prices) * Select Classic Cocktails for $9 (reg. $11-$13) Highly recommend the Golden City Brewery Guava Sour if available! read more

Terminal Bar - Golden City Brewery Guava Sour - Bars Near Me - Denver, Colorado

A group of 5 of us ended up here because the restaurant we wanted to go to had a 40min wait. While we were waiting we ordered some appetizers that were so good we regretted putting our name down at the other place. Cutest bar kind of reminded me of being in Harry Potter land. We definitely want to come back to enjoy more than just the appetizers read more

Had a holiday work event here. It's nice that they have a walk up window or you can choose to sit inside the seating is open so great for meeting a group. The bar was extremely busy and clearly needed some extra servers since it took almost 20 minutes to get a drink but understandable since there seemed to be a few holiday gatherings occurring. Our waiter was nice and got us everything we ordered. He even transferred our check from inside to our new table for us. read more

Terminal Bar - Union station outside - Bars Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Having made my way to Terminal Bar on at least three occasions now, I can give them a solid 4 out of 5 stars on the ol' Yelp-o-Matic. What I like: ++ The selection of creative craft cocktails is chef's kiss delicious! ++ The variety of Colorado craft brews is pretty damn impressive. ++ The ability to grab a beer at the walk'up window is really convenient when you're looking for a more casual experience. ++ Bartenders have always be friendly and made great conversation with myself and my fellow guests, even entertaining my husband with a laugh at his terrible dad-esque jokes. ++ The location is absolutely a vibe. What I don't like: -- There is an automatic gratuity that they fail to tell you about most of the time, and I forget about it more often than not. -- Prices are undoubtedly steep. A draft beer costs anywhere from $6 to $9 depending on the pour; with most brews coming in on the higher end of that price range. The craft cocktails are delicious, but will run you $11 - $15. Yikes! Terminal Bar is a solid stop when you find yourself needing to kill some time in Union Station. Cheers, Denver! **Pro Tip: If you can plan your visit accordingly they do offer a week day Happy Hour from 4pm to 6pm that includes select draft beers, cocktails, house wines, and well spirits. read more

Terrible bar service. Dismissive and rude bartender. Advice from a retired couple with plenty of money to spend: tell your barkeeps to greet every customer that approaches the bar with respect and gratitude. Your employee discouraged our patronage with his arrogant attitude. We left without spending a dime. Good luck! read more

The Terminal Bar is one of those bars my coworkers and I tend to hit up when we're looking to grab HH downtown. It's not too far from our office and it's pretty reliable. The drinks are always good, albeit a little pricey though. I ordered a French 75 since it tends to be one of my go-to drinks. It was good! The service took a while since it was a slower evening. One person in our party waited like 15 minutes for his drink, which was unfortunate since everyone else had gotten their drinks quickly. They truly can make any drink you could imagine though, and thye'll do it well. I have also been during their HH hours, and they have a few different things from their normal menu. Overall, highly recommended if you're in the area looking for a place to get a cocktail. read more

Friendly Bartender and Bar Back made our experience well worth the stop. Enjoyed sitting at the bar and I had the Italicus Sprtiz and my husband had a Mai Tai followed by a Bloody Mary. Breakfast of the champions! read more

As a local I came for my birthday, and absolutely regret it. What a waste of time and money. The staff was ill prepared and inexperienced. It's clear this bar supports Trump and doesn't want your money if you don't support Trump. read more

Food was well-prepared but expensive. Complete bar with creative cocktails. Service was mixed, some attentive and helpful. Others distracted. The QR ordering would be dazzling if it worked, but it was plagued by WiFi connection problems. I was able to convince the application that was human. Maybe that's my problem. Stunning setting in a renovated Glided Age train station. This place needs work on the basics of being a restaurant. read more

My husband and I stopped here for a drink and an appetizer. I ordered the C squared Ella Tropical Hopped cider. It was okay and not my favorite. My husband ordered the spiced strawberry Collins. It was really good. We ordered the holy guacamole without cheese. You get a lot of guacamole and it was very tasty. Overall plenty of seating. You can grab seats inside or in the common main area. Definitely recommend grabbing a drink here as it is central to other bars and restaurants. read more

Amazing drinks! Bartenders are amazing & friendly & are great at their work, 10/10 recommend but be prepared to spend some good money on their drinks, totally worth it though. For the drink pictured, old fashion was $25 but absolutely great. read more

The space is art-deco beautiful. With majestic soaring ceiling, brass fixtures, and dark marble, it's one of the iconic major city Union Station bars/restaurants. There are a lot of people coming and going. It's effortless people watching, action, and energy. I've strolled in here before a few years ago to have a drink and take in all the Union Station buzz and energy. I give the location a 5 stars; Service- 4 stars for our busy, but friendly bartender; And the food we ordered, only an extremely faint- dim 2.5 stars. Overall, I would rate this visit a 3.75 stars if permitted. We ordered the margherita flatbread pizza and tomato bruschetta off their happy hour menu. The tomato sauce on the pizza was sweet and the crust was uneven. It reminded me of an undercooked microwaveable frozen lunch that I tried to make when I was seven years old. The tomato bruschetta was extremely soggy, and the diced tomatoes were also sweet; but not in a good way. Maybe, if the bread was crispier or if the tomatoes were lightly poured on the bread, it would have been ok. IMO, these two orders were probably not the best items on the menu. Traveling by train, airplanes, and ships still fascinate this old Gen-X dude. I will mostly likely return to Terminal Bar and have a cocktail or glass of wine. read more

Shout out to Eric and Ty! They not only provided us excellent service, they went above and beyond their normal bar tending duties by making us feel safe and welcome. I would recommend dropping in to say hi and hydrating. You won't regret it. read more

If I had my way when going out to dinner, I would choose 3 different restaurants for the evening - one for the appetizer, one for the mains and one for dessert. I don't score this "gastronomic trifecta" often. However, the daily double is more attainable, and I achieve this prize on a periodic basis. In this case, it would be two restaurants for the night. As such, I scored again in Denver, where I came to the Terminal Bar at Denver Union Station to have dessert after having the main dinner course elsewhere. The Terminal Bar is located inside the Denver Union Station and is the majestic and main eye catcher amongst the other establishments. It is also located in a commanding area of the grand hall. The dessert menu at the Terminal Bar has only two items. That was okay with me, because they had one of my favorite deserts - the Molten Lava Cake. I had it with vanilla ice cream (this comes from the adjacent Milkbox creamery in the same building). The molten lava cake itself was very different. The outside had a perfectly crafted and fragrant brownie crust with a moist inside of uneven lava. More dark chocolate and cream was designed to be outside the cake to make a simple but dramatic presentation. The vanilla ice cream came separated in a bowl. Eating all these elements together wrang all the happy sensory bells and whistles for the culinary senses. A grand finale to my memorable last few hours in Denver. read more

Wow, some of the best food and drinks I've ever had at the hotel I'm staying at. I got a steak salad and it was SO fresh and well made. I ordered a glass of sparkling wine, and their selections were great. We decided to go here on a whim and a slight discount, and it ended up being one of the best meals. Pro tip: if it's busy and there is no seating, do not be afraid to sit at the bar. The bartenders are super nice and I think it was quicker. read more

Good place to grab something quick. We had excellent service from Logan! She went out of her way to make sure my family was taken care of.

Until recently this was a wonderful place to drink beer, but they have changed the beer list and made it much less distinctive. It used to have only Colorado micro-brews. No more. Not that other state's don't have good beer, but this was a truly excellent selection of Colorado's finest. Last night I could not even find a hazy IPA on the menu. The Hefeweizen was not a real Hefe; no foam; too sweet; and it was $9. I used to extoll the Terminal Bar to my friends and acquaintances. Won't do that again with the current approach. read more

Waiting for my friend to fly in from LA and I stopped to have a drink at the bar @ 10. All of a sudden a cockroach runs on top of the bar. I tried to catch it to kill it. The bartender killed it and trashed it. There was no apology or explanation. I doubt I will ever go back. Good thing I didn't order any food. Gross! read more

This establishment is inside of Union Station. The decor is period inspired, something like the 1930s? with lots of dark wood and swanky. TVs to watch the game. I met a friend here for a drink and had some appetizers. The chicken wings were above average and notably enjoyable for me. The ample serving of lightly battered fries were a bargain for $3?. I also had a small side salad which was well prepared and acceptable. My friend got the Blondie ala mode -- which I thought was outstanding. Service was friendly and efficient. No complaints. In summary, Food 4/5 Service 4/5 Ambiance 4.5/5 (bustling and deliberately noisy) Prices 3.5/5 Portion Size 3.5/5 Bang for the Buck 4/5 Great place for a meeting your business colleagues or even a first date, perhaps... If it goes bad, you can quickly bail by "going to the bathroom" (which is a shared facility with the entire train station) and catch the first train or bus outtaaaa there. read more

Walked down to Union Station to check it out. Great place. Love the look. So fancy. The terminal bar looked great. Old and classy. We sat outside under the tent. The weather was perfect. The food was great. I got the Ruben. Very delicious. My husband got a burger. It was really good. My friend got the Philly and her husband got the BLT. Everything was so good. The bread on all of the sandwiches was to die for. read more

LOVED this bar. Was my favorite bar in Denver - it is located in union square right on the terminal of the train (thus the name lol). It reminds me a lot of an elegant bar that I used to go to in London (the Ned - if you are ever in London) so it brought back really good memories. The drinks were really good - a bit more expensive compared to the rest of Denver but worth it - my dirty martini was one of the best I had in the state. :) Definitely recommend! read more

This bar was in the Denver Union Station and our hotel stay included two drinks (from a select menu) from this bar. It was always lively and had plenty of patrons. We could only use our drink vouchers at a certain time so we lined up at the back window facing the interior and ordered two beers (we always like to try local breweries if we can). Service was efficient, we enjoyed our beers, returned the glasses and headed on to dinner. read more

Came in late (10:30) after arriving on a late flight from Vegas. Ended up just sneaking in an order at last call for the kitchen. Bar is inside Union Station and a pretty cool setting. Place was jumpin when we got here. Servers were super helpful in getting our order in, even though chicken wings were out. Shared a meal with the kiddo as it was late - ordered the burger with sweet potato fries, and a side of queso dip (sub for the chicken wings). Washed it all down with an old fashioned. Drink was delicious. Big ice cube, decent orange bitters, and a sweet tang to the glass filled with Makers. Paired nicely with the fatty, smashed double cheeseburger. Burger and fries were good. Tasty mostly because we were starving, more or less Yard House stuff; nothing to write home about. Queso chips were overly salty, but edible. Still, definitely come for the drinks and atmosphere! read more

Just your typical airport bar food. The staff was friendly and the food came out fast, which is all I cared for in the moment.

Came in today before a Rockies game. Place was fairly empty. My husband and I sat at the bar. We sat, and sat, and sat. Bartender filled her water bottle. Talked to what seemed to be a manager, not sure. We sat. And sat. Right in front of them. No acknowledgement, no eye contact. Are we invisible? They could not be bothered to do any semblance of their job. We left after about 7 minutes of sitting RIGHT IN FRONT OF THEM. I said to her after we gave up and left, that we had had ZERO acknowledgement after 5+ minutes. She looked shocked and mumbled I'm sorry. Pathetic. We sat down right in front of you!!!! You all aren't suited to receive your paychecks. We walked next door and had wonderful customer service and food next door at Ultreia. Night and day experience. What in the holy heck is going on at the Terminal Bar? Do not recommend. read more

Came in with my husband and in-laws after walking around Union Station. I ordered a spicy Bloody Mary, my husband ordered a French 75, and my father in law ordered a Pilsner. The spicy Bloody Mary was lackluster. The flavor was just okay, but it didn't come with any garnishes at all. I love Bloody Mary's and order them often, so I was surprised that it didn't even come with a lime or anything. The French 75 was a bit too sweet, but it was pretty and refreshing. The actual bar is really stylish and has cool decor. Lots of booths and bar seating. read more

Two good things to say, one not so good, so judge as you see fit .. Good 1: great ambiance both inside the bar and within Union Station ... beautiful spot. Good 2: our server, she was excellent. Attentive, upbeat, made recommendations. NOT so good 1: we ordered the roasted Brussels sprouts, based on the picture from the website and the menu description (see pics). Which shows a plate full of actual HALF Brussel sprouts. What did we get? 4 actual half Brussel sprouts ... and a plate full of of crispy individual leaves. Very. Very. Disappointing. read more

What a great bar in a train station and 5 blocks from my hotel. Centrally located its a great spot to meet friends and family when they get out of work on a Friday. For it being in a transport hub, it was surprisingly really clean! Not only is there this terrific bar but there's a few eateries and shops. The espresso martinis were the highlight of this visit. I'm in the industry, have been a bartender and couldn't figure out on my own what made these addictive. The friendly bartender shared her recipe with me so I'm going to make them at home now! read more

This was a very disappointing experience for lunch and drinks this week. Went with a couple of friends from high school, expecting a wonderful experience. We waited over an hour for our food-- 3 salads! Everyone else was served their food and drinks except us Happy to say, they comped our food bill- maybe chalk this up to forgetting to put in our order?? Restaurant wasn't busy, either. read more

This place is very cool. Tucked away in Union Station, the train station motif is strong and fun. We came here two days in a row to escape the June Denver heat and it has been pretty awesome. The beer and cocktail selections are legit and everyone has been pretty friendly. In regards to the food, we got the pretzel noghts yesterday and today which were out of this world. We also got the wings today, and they were super legit. Yesterday we got the tenders, and they were not good, so I'd suggest staying away from them. We got the wings today, and they were big and juicy. They also have less than mediocre ranch, but excellent blue cheese, so do with that as you want. Importantly, relative to my rating, the service got backed up substantially today and the manager comped our drinks. He didn't have to, and the atmosphere is good enough to make up for a longer wait than I'd expect, but it was welcome and appreciated. We'll definitely return. read more

Absolutely loved the decor and the restoration of preserving the look of this iconic building. Walking into the building was like walking into a time machine. The service was prompted and quick. You order, you get a ticket, the food comes to where you are sitting, and the left overs are taken away when you are done. This is how service should be everywhere. The place is clean and I almost want to say spotless for the amount of people passing through. I enjoyed the sliders and my san panda was very tasty. I need to find a local spot that serves it in NYC. read more

Fun stop after leaving the airport by taking the train. Please wear your mask as you enter Union Station and find a spot or a table inside/outside the bar. My wife went up to the outside window and ordered a martini and an iced Irish coffee. Surprisingly my coffee was only $10 which is really not bad at all. You can start a tab or close it out, really up to you. There are options to be on the main floor of Union Station or sit inside the bar. It was a bit too crowded for our liking. Therefore we decided to sit a table near some comfy couches. The scene is chill and really people are minding there own business. Some people were even working on laptops and doing homework. Luckily my daughter had her tablet so we were just hanging out until we were ready for our Lyft to pick us up. I'm not sure why the reviews are so low for this place. It really is a vibe here. Happy Yelping!! read more
