Quite possibly just might not be my thing. I came with a friend and we both were kind of bored within the first like 5 minutes. The food and drinks weren't terribly priced. The service was relatively fast with bringing things out, but our chips and crackers were a little stale. I can't say I truly enjoyed anything I tried from the menu. People were really engaged and seemed into it. I could tell a lot of work was put into production, and the staff seemed to be genuinely enjoying themselves, so that was a plus.

The clocktower Cabaret is always such a treat. We have never had a bad experience here. The shows are always fun and creative and vibrant. You could never be bored! The room has so much history and is decorated in a fun yet classy decor that brings you right into the moment. It's a great time to dress up and go out on a date night or go and party it up with your friends. The host is just such a gem and we just love coming here. There are always deals too on Instagram and their website for various shows. Go check out a show or two. I'm telling you - you will be hooked and want to come back again and again. They also have excellent snacks and charcuteries and desserts and of course drinks - lots of different to choose from. Highly recommend! (Will add more photos )

Do NOT pay extra for VIP tickets!!! The stage will be right in your face and your table small. Better seats are the comfy padded booths a bit back, which isn't far away anyway since this place is so small. Way more comfortable NOT in the "VIP" section. The band seemed off. The leader man was like yelling at people in the group and it was weird and I wanted to go up there and alpha female slap him in his chops. He was rude. They were an older band, they didn't seem too experienced and worse, seemed unprofessional they didn't do their sound check BEFORE customers arrive at the start time of the show. Kinda not so classy. The music was good and fun at times, then they got too old school, to the point I was like "What decade is this from..."? Overall, I was hoping for a better experience. It wasn't terrible, but not good enough to get me excited to get back again.

We were lucky to be in town when the Clocktower had their Drag Decades show (hosted by the fabulous Miss Shirley Delta Blow!) The place was hoppin' and the ladies put on a great show. I have to say, Miss Shirley was the best part of the festivities. While she's no dancer, she is a wonderful, inclusive, funny and warm entertainer. The atmosphere is great for this type of show and wait staff are responsive. Fun Times!!

I love the Clocktower Cabaret!! The acts are always so awesome! My most recent visit was for the Weird Al Burlesque. That was awesome and because it was Weird Al music, you were guaranteed a laugh. All the acts make their own costumes and they were just so amazing. I wish I had that much creativity! The wait staff is also amazing! They were all attentive and made sure our party was doing ok.

Coming to The Clocktower Cabaret was such a great experience from start to finish. The staff are so welcoming and nice. During this time, they are limiting capacity to about 35 people I believe and the seating was very spacious. I felt that guidelines were strictly in place, while still being able to have a fun time. There is a small food menu, in which we tried the caramel cheesecake and the chocolate toffee mousse cake. Both were really good, especially the mousse cake. The drinks are also great! And the waitresses were so nice and made sure that we had everything we needed! I attended the Boolesque show, which is geared towards Halloween. Yes, Halloween in February! I thought it was great and we had such a fun time. All the acts had something different to bring to the stage and we thoroughly enjoyed every act! If you're looking for something fun to do during this time, The Clocktower Cabaret has something for you! Also, this is a great way to support a Denver small family business.

This whole experience was such a blast! We went to a Chicago vs Cabaret themed night and everyone was so incredibly talented. The drinks were also amazing with wonderful service to our table. We're already looking at tickets to the next show.

Dana W.

Yes times a million! What a fun night! Located in the historic clock tower, come out and check a Burlesque show. Food and drinks were available and totally affordable from what I thought it would be. Tickets were $45 and the entertainment was from start to end! Best night EVVVVERRR!!!

This is one of our favorite places to go in Denver! Every show we have been to has been better and better, with amazing entertainment and great service. The shows are all wonderful, but the Chicago vs. Cabaret is a personal favorite. No matter what show you go to, you're sure to have a fun time!

We weren't quite sure where to enter from the back parking lot, but we saw a "Wine Tasting This Way" sign that led us through an area being set up for a wedding...whoops! Not sure if the sign had been moved or simply hadn't been moved for the wedding. Once we made our way to the tasting area, it was extremely busy and we had no idea where or how to check in. We eventually asked someone who came up to the register to check out another guest, and they promptly got us checked in. The tasting itself was nice, we tasted about 20 diff wines, and we had a lovely girl serving us. Unfortunately, the biggest disappointment was as first time visitors, we weren't given any info about how the tasting experience worked. It took about an hour and a half, and we didn't receive the advertised tour that was included. After the tasting, we were ready to purchase some wine and waited behind another couple who was checking out. However, no one ever acknowledged us or came over to help us check out. I think this place is probably great, but the disorganized check-in, lack of clear signage, and inattentive staff made the experience more difficult. As first time visitors, we would have loved a little more guidance.

Then when he did acknowledge me and I stated I would sit at the bar, it took several minutes for the bartender to acknowledge me. The staff was busy speaking to each other and doing side work. Once I was acknowledged, things started getting a little better. When I arrived during breakfast/brunch, I was informed they were in the middle of a menu change, so my choices were limited. Breakfast items include bacon and burritos. I started off with a charcuterie board (though I had asked for a fromage board). This was not only because I wanted some tasty cheese, but I was trying to kill time until the lunch/dinner menu started. The board was a great board, two different meats, three cheeses, a loaf of bread, some nuts and jellies. But it was 40 dollars! I had a few small plates (which was still a lot of food). I had a melon and cucumber salad, which was a good palate cleanser. I also had the roasted king mushrooms, which were underwhelming with no seasoning, and they were a little chewy. The best thing was the wild boar meatballs, which were seasoned really well and in a savory, delicious marinara sauce. All the cocktails were fruity (but not sweet) and refreshing. I had one that was carrot based (Kiss my Carrot with tequila, cointreau, carrot, orange, and ginger), one that had pineapple flavor (paper boat with rum, falernum, aperol, lemon, pineapple), and the smoky smoke and flower (hibiscus mezcal, cointreau, pama, rose water). This spot is a winery, so they have a large wine list. They have handhelds like burgers and flatbreads. Starters like artichoke dip and bruschetta. Some of the current entrees, which might change, are hanger steak, chilean salmon, cauliflower steak. They had a gnocchi dish I was interested in, but it's already been removed from the menu. The restaurant is classy and just like a winery is expected to be. The food is pretty good. But the service was really subpar.

There are afternoon specials, so check their website and buy tickets before you arrive to get a deal. I will say, that because the exteriors of all the holes are raised to keep the ball inside, it made me a little nervous due to the tripping hazards of each hole. My 80 yr old parents enjoyed it, but I was stressed that they were going to lose their balance and fall over. I'm only mentioning this in case you're bringing some senior citizens or people with lower mobility. Otherwise it was fun and the staff was super nice. I love how you don't have to keep track of each putt, the technology does it for you! We did have some issues with it, but Jenah was working in our area and was very helpful and available to fix any tech issues. There are four 9-hole courses and it really is a fun activity for people of all ages! Plus, they have a massive bar and menu, so you can really make it an all day event!

Puttshack is a hip spot with a number of 9-hole mini golf courses inside. They have a full bar and serve food, but we just chose to play golf. The scoring is the coolest part here. The balls have chips in them, and the course knows where your ball is at all times. It scores the round for you, and each hole has additional challenges called "supertubes". Scoring is backwards from traditional golf, so you'll want as many points as you can to win. The pricing on weekdays is super reasonable here, and that's why we delayed our visit to our last day in Denver. The other days we were in town fell on a weekend, and the prices felt kind of outrageous for weekend golf. If you can, I would certainly stick to visiting Puttshack on the weekdays. It was also nearly empty during our visit, which made it much more enjoyable. I would return to a Puttshack for the fun gameplay and cool scoring mechanics. Just be sure to watch the pricing tiers based on the day of your visit!

I was…read moreprepared to wait, I have a brain and realize they didn't have 20 ready for me and they aren't psychic. Anyway, I ask if they can please cut them in half. Not a big deal, I was just thinking not everyone wants a whole and if someone is extra hungry they can take two halves. Just thought it would make things a tad easier. They tell me no. They can't/won't cut in half. Ok, whatever. I don't understand what the big deal is, they obviously posses knives... just cut them instead of saying "no". So stupid. 20ish Minutes after waiting, the person who took my order said it would be 30 minutes to make. Which was weird cause what was going on for the last 20 minutes? 30 minutes to wait is fine, if you don't waste the 20 mins prior resulting in about an hour wait. So, I declined as now we are talking an hour to get 20 simple breakfast burritos. I needed to get to work and I wasn't wanting to wait an entire hour and they just wasted 20 minutes of my time not prepping anything, so I decided not to go with the burritos. Someone came to refund my sale and then preceded to kind of scold me for not ordering in advance. He said something about for an order like 20 burritos they want 2 days heads up. GTF outta here. It's freaking burritos. You don't need 2 days to make 20 burritos. And here's the thing, I'm not here for a lecture because I attempted to give YOU business. And I won't be back, either. When you get a customer to purchase your goods, be happy. Provide them the goods. Make it as soon as you can. Don't say no for no reason. Don't make anyone feel bad for trying to give you business. It would have been SOOOOO simple to make the burritos and quick run the knife through them. But, no, the choice was to do nothing for almost a half hour, to refuse to run a knife through them as asked, and then lecture a customer for coming in to order 20 items. It's not like I asked for 100. What if 10 customers came in and each ordered 2? Can you do that? Do they get lectured, too, or...? See ya.

The Guest, located inside The Regular, is a full dining experience rather than a traditional…read morerestaurant, and it's a strong addition to the Denver food scene. This is a timed, coursed dinner where the entire room sits and eats together, so arriving on time is essential. The format creates a restaurant wide dinner party feel, which sets the tone for the night. Everything feels intentional, from the pacing to the service to the design of the space. The menu changes often and is never repeated, which makes the experience feel special and creative rather than formulaic. Standout dishes for me included the duck doughnut, the wood ear French toast, the venison burger, and the leek cappuccino. The kanpachi crudo and scallop with tamarind were also beautifully balanced, and desserts like Cash's Apple and The Sphere were thoughtful finishes rather than an afterthought. One of the more memorable details was the menu book at the end of the night, featuring the chef's original sketches of the dishes. It's a small touch that really reinforces how personal and considered the experience is. If you're looking for a unique, chef driven tasting experience that feels cohesive and well executed, this is absolutely worth a reservation.

The presentation of the dishes was beautiful and unique. Some of our favorites were the crème brûlée scallop, mushroom French toast, duck donut, and cappuccino lobster. It's definitely expensive, but we knew that going into it. $190 for the meal, $143 for the wine pairing, $20 for a cocktail, and automatic 20% tip. There was a cute booklet at the end with sketches of the dishes. It was a little annoying that they wouldn't do separate checks for us since only one of us got the wine pairing.
