Came here last night for the Christmas themed pop up Noel! It was so much fun with karaoke, ordered the Boozy Nog and it was so good! The wait was a little long but 10/10 recommend, the staff was friendly and ended the night taking home pizza and it was delicious, thin crust and the jalapeños were super spicy!

Charming entrance with outdoor seating area
Craig G.

With the familiar scent of oven baked pizza in the air, this rustic bar and coffee house has a gritty yet personable feel. It has some eclectic decor that celebrates many varieties of bourbon. It is a bar/coffee shop with a bit of an identity crisis. Although I did not have any food, it smelled delicious. The coffee menu was decent with wide variety of the usual coffee and tea offerings. My breve was flavorful and hot but a tad on the weak side... maybe I'll request an extra shot next time. The staff were welcoming and personable. It is the kinda place you could go for lunch or dinner and just chill. Then snag a coffee to top off a great meal. There is a really cool outdoor seating area in the back with live music when I visited, plus street side seating out front.

Chicken Pesto Sandwich

Almost 5 years to the day of my first review of Bluegrass...wild! Fast forward to now and this is one of my most frequented places in the city. Since moving to this side of town earlier this year, my hot, steamy affair with Bluegrass was rekindled. It's a place for all walks of life and for me, it checks many boxes. +Coffee served all day. +Whiskey selection of 100-150 varietals. +Solid menu featuring pizzas, sandwiches, breakfast items, etc. +Lively atmosphere with a killer outdoor patio. +Strong wifi network and plenty of outlets for remote workers. +Good deals on happy hour pricing/specials. The "Cheers" mentality still holds up to this day. Everyone knows everyone here. And if you're not part of the crew, they'll usually welcome you graciously. I will say that, at times, service can be a little short and snappy. This place gets jammed and sometimes I think they can be more understanding and accommodating. However I've developed friendly relationships with a few of the workers and they make me feel right at home when they're on shift. My main qualm is that I feel like the food has slipped a bit. I never thought it was mind blowing, but it used to be more consistent. I've had some items recently that were just okay (breakfast burrito, sandwich, pizza). With plenty of places to eat nearby, I'd leave that option open to anyone reading this. They have a real good thing going here. The textbook definition of a neighborhood spot. A locals only place. We're glad you're here, Bluegrass!

Bagel with cream cheese
Kayla R.

Was in town for work and my coworker took us here because it's one of his favorite coffee shops and I can totally see why it is! First of all, this neighborhood is SO cute. Kinda like an old downtown area. I felt like I was walking on a movie set. So cute and quaint. Inside, this coffee shop is so welcoming and cozy. I got a bagel with cream cheese and their signature cold bru, even though it was cold outside. It was delicious! Really enjoyed it and that cold bru was bruuuuuing. Pretty strong, but I needed it cuz we had a long event day. The staff was also so nice, too! There's plenty of places to sit and even on a Wednesday morning, this place was buzzin. It was great! I definitely would frequent this place if I lived in the area. Highly recommend checking it out!

Match and avocado toast. Burnt and over salted.
Sweta K.

Ambiance is nice, lots of seats, prices are fair, plenty of street parking around. I wanted to love this place but only give it a 3.5/5 stars in my humble opinion. My avocado toast came out burnt and over salted. It also took a long time to come out. I just ended up eating it as it bc I was so hungry. The matcha was decent, I personally like mine a little sweetened, but it was fine, just tasted a little powdery as well. WiFi available as well. The guy who took my order wasn't the friendliest to me, but he was joking around with all the other customers that came in, so idk, made me feel like he was slightly racially biased. I don't easily make allegations like that, but when you've dealt with people and lived life it's just a vibe you pick up on. I was plenty friendly to him, so idk what else his off demeanor specifically to me would've been about.

Matcha and a vanilla latte

For as busy as it was we recieved our drinks pretty quickly. We ordered the breakfast burritos, very delicious. And the ambiance was delightful overall, a great experience.

This is a worthy activity if you can go. Bluegrass does a pop up holiday bar in back that is just so much fun! This was our second year going. If you are not familiar, Bluegrass is towards the east end of Grandview in Olde Town Arvada. There is plenty of parking in the deck adjacent to the area. We met our friends there and got on the list to do the pop up. While we waited we ordered some beers and a pizza. The pizza was tasty. We only had about a thirty minute wait before being escorted back to the Noel area. The decorations are beautiful. They have a tent over their back deck and you feel like you are in a winter wonderland. The holiday beverages available were fun. I chose the cocoa and got it "naughty" with a shot of peppermint schnapps. Delicious! There is a selection of shots available and our table did a shot-ski. They get the attention of the room and everyone yells out, "Shot-ski!!" The staff was great. Be aware you have a 2 hour limit at your table. That was plenty of time to enjoy the experience while allowing for others to have a turn. Highly recommend!

Mostly rating 5 stars because this place just has the best vibes and the nicest people. The food looks good, but I honestly just got drinks and enjoyed the atmosphere. A fun place to work, chat or sit and people watch while listening to music. They have everything you need. I want to come back here and stay and work all day, but I live in Denver... Extra points because they take Apple Pay!

Bierstadt Helles on the back patio
Betty G.

Honestly, the only downside to this stellar establishment was that they only have one bathroom and no table-service out back. The atmosphere was lively and the pizza was great! They had Bierstadt's Helles on tap and a free whiskey tasting from a local distillery.

White peach latte
Kait S.

I came here with a friend to get an afternoon coffee on a Thursday. The coffee and service was great. I got the seasonal white peach latte and it was delicious!!! My experience was significantly altered because of the volume of the live artist playing though. I love live music, and her music was great, but the volume made it unenjoyable. I couldn't even hear my friend, while we yelled across the table at each other. We ended up moving outside so we could talk and while closing our tab I asked the barista if there was anything they could do about the volume and they said it was all up to the artist. Many other groups moved outside after us, even with the misting rain making it a more undesirable setting. Overall I am sure this restaurant would be great another day and I very much enjoyed my drink and their patio was nice.

2oz pour of Old Rip Van Winkle ( aka Pappy 10 year)
David G.

3.5 banjos So hear me out y'all. This is perhaps one of the best bourbon selections west of Kentucky...period. Seriously a hundred really fantastic ones to choose from: You want to try a Van Winkle 20... no problem. Elijah Craig barrell pick...hell yeah! Parker Heritage, Russell's Reserve, Weller, yatta yatta yatta. Great list of Ryes too. Beers on tap were not too shabby. If I were to stop the review there it would be a 10.....BUT Food is so so. Mostly salads sandwiches and pizzas which are okay. Ambiance is pretty low key and coffee bar like. For drinking no problem, but to have a meal and hang with my friend for her Birthday....not so much. The woman caterwauling aka singing was a tough thing to listen to (sorry). Service is fantastic though and everyone there is just wonderful to interact with. I would def come back for the bourbon.

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!!!

There are gym bleachers on the walls, booths made from old school bus seats, and the drinks come in science-class beakers. It's clever without feeling gimmicky. The food was good and came out fast, which mattered because we had a game to get to. The service was great too: friendly, attentive, and quick to check on us without hovering. If you want a fun lunch spot with a lot of personality, School House makes the grade. We'll definitely be back.

Our first dinner here with friends was ultimately forgettable. We had a 5:00 Saturday reservation…read morebut the restaurant was less than half full. We were seated upstairs with only about ten other diners and our waiter was also doubling as the bartender. While drink orders went smoothly, taking our food order was a struggle; the server didn't write it down and had to return three separate times to get it right. We started with Poutine and fried pickles. The fries were soggy, and the gravy tasted like a canned or powdered mix. The pickles were a tasty highlight. Entrées: Monte Cristo: Well-executed and good. French Dip was disappointing due to an unfavorable bread-to-meat ratio. Po Boy shrimp were good, though the roll was too large and threw off the balance of the sandwich. Walnut Broccoli Stir Fry was merely okay. French Fries served with the sandwiches were just average and most went to waste. To top off the lackluster service, when we asked our waiter/bartender for a to-go container for the remaining stir-fry, it never arrived. While the venue has an interesting and unique atmosphere, the combination of inattentive service and mediocre food makes this a "once and done" spot.

Sure you should. So I had the time to drive 20+ minutes from work to get to the northside to try out the Little Wolf's burger bar located inside the establishment and called the "Flip & Howl Burger Kitchen." (Don't ask me why.) I made the drive mainly because I'd asked AI where some of the best burgers were in Denver area and one of the answers (when I asked for "quality ingredients") was "Little Wolf/Flip & Howl Burger Kitchen." Made the drive for the Durango-sourced Colorado Wagyu beef/cheese burger that cost just a bit more than $10 a pop. Rating right up at almost a perfect 5 stars, the drive was worth it. And what made it so great? Not just the burger, but because as soon as I walked in the proprietor's first words were, "Want an ice cream cone on us?" While I thought it must have been because of my stylish aplomb and in-command presence . . . turns out everyone gets the same offer. (What a great marketing idea:). Took my burger, which by the way, tasted great, but of course ate my soft ice cream teaser cone first. Turned out to be a fine idea. End result? When you're looking for a great place for a blue-collar burger at an extremely reasonable price be sure to make the drive to the northside to give Little Wolf's a bite. Sign me punningly yours, David M
