This is a great restaurant in the Sonesta hotel. Great service!!! On the bartenders recommendation, I ordered the Tuna Tar Tar and did it hit the spot! Excellent flavoring and more than enough to share. read more

My colleagues and I had a breakfast meeting and decided on The Lockwood Kitchen + Bar located inside the Sonesta hotel since it was centrally located. We had not expected it to essentially being a continental breakfast buffet. For the price of $23.99 per person, it was a bit disappointing and was no different from the complimentary breakfast at some of the other hotels. They had the standard scrambled eggs, sausage patty, sausage link, bacon, roasted potatoes, oatmeal, bagel, bread, pancakes, cereal, yogurt, coffee, tea, fruit, juice, milk, and cereal. There was nothing special about it. The coffee was hot and the fruits were freshly cut and sweet. Nothing else really stood out. I wasn't particularly impressed. It wasn't bad, just very average. read more

Stopped into Lockwood Kitchen & Bar tonight (November 14th) while staying at the Sonesta. The kitchen was already closed around 9pm, but the bar was still running, so I grabbed a vodka soda with lime. Drinks were pretty basic and definitely on the pricey side, but the service was friendly and quick. Not really a destination bar, but it works for what it is -- a convenient spot for a simple cocktail before heading out or calling it a night. Decent enough when you're staying at the hotel and want something easy. read more

This is specifically for the summer pool party. Do not pay $54 for this nonsense. It is not worth the money you spend. They only had quesadillas, cheese, chicken, and a breakfast one. There was no chicken and waffles and no burritos. The DJ was cool but he had no Wi-Fi so could only play what he already had downloaded on his drive. There is no shade until about 1pm after the sun started to move behind the building, and the space is quite small. Save your money! read more

We was walking around the Downtown Denver and was hungry and decided to stop here and eat. We were sent to our table and order quick. Our food came in pretty fast. The restaurant was well decorated. The ambiance was nice. Looks like a lot of people eats here from nearby the hotels. The food was delivered to our table and the food was good. read more

Thi was a below average hotel bar. I stopped by here in the early afternoon and I did feel bad because it's clear they are understaffed. However, the bartender was rude to me and several others, which seemed uncalled for. The wine selection was awful as well. read more

This was our first time at Lockwood on our last day in Denver before flying back home. My wife was craving a charcuterie board and we saw from previous reviews that they seem to have a good one. Alas, they changed their menu and the charcuterie board is not available anymore. But anyways we still decided to take a look at the menu, tried the baked Brie which was good. The main reason for the three stars was the underwhelming cocktails, which were definitely not worth their price. There are many cocktail bars in Denver offering outstanding cocktails at better price than what is offered at Lockwood. The place was empty on a Monday at lunch time so there was no excuse for the low quality of the drinks since the bartender wasn't busy at all. read more

I asked for a medium burger and they served me a raw hamburger. A cool raw center. Definitely do not recommend. read more

Poor service at this establishment. Menu changed. What drew us in was no longer available on the menu.

I ordered the grilled cheese and tomato bisque. There was one small piece of cheese that had shriveled to the center of the bread. It was terrible!!! Basically I was eating toast. The soup was to be served warm and it was almost cold. My husband had cheese nachos. Way more chips than cheese. We were in from out of town and were excited to try. Our server asked about our meal. I told him politely about my sandwich and he could care less so I didn't mention my husbands nachos. We paid our tab and left. $16.00 each, before adding tax and tip. Made me sad. Poor food and poor service. WOULD NOT RECOMMEND!!!! read more

The Lockwood is located in the lobby of the Crowne Plaza hotel... super convenient if you're staying there! They offer seating around the bar, as well as tables spread out around the room. If you're staying at the hotel and an IHG member, they'll give you a coupon for 10% off your meal. The menu is a bit pricey, as expected for being located at the hotel, but they offer a wide variety of appetizers, salads, sandwiches, and entrees. I chose the spiced pear & goat cheese salad with chicken. I thoroughly enjoyed the salad, especially the goat cheese balls. I wasn't as impressed with the chicken. It was okay but nothing special. I would have been just as happy with the salad had I not added it. If you're in a rush, I'd recommend sitting at the bar, as the bartender was also in charge of serving the tables. He checked in when he could but admitted the bar had him pretty busy. read more

Food is very good. They run on ridiculously short staff. 1 chef and 1 waiter/ bartender/buser. Took forever to get food

I was in town for a real estate event and stayed at he Crown Plaza for one night of the two day event. After returning to the hotel from the day long event I went to my room freshened up and then downstairs to the Lockwood. Found a spot at the bar and ordered the B&B Burger and something on tap. Don't recall the beer but it was nice. The burger was amazing and one of the best I've had ever, cooked to perfection with delicious fries. Could have gone for seconds, Heheh! The only reason I didn't go 5 stars on the review was because the service was a bit off. They were either under staffed or over worked or both. I hope to get the opportunity to go back though when I'm back in Denver. read more

They are not open until 12pm. :( The sign on the door and Yelp says they are open until midnight but that is not true. We walked 20 minutes in heels to find out they were closed at 10pm. They were also rude. Please update your hours. read more

Stayed at the Sonesta from Thursday to Sunday and the food and drinks have been good and consistent each time. Stop by and see Chuck at the bar. He can mix up anything you have a taste for. However the real star is Terrance the chef. He is AWESOME! Let him feed you, you will not be disappointed. read more

I ordered chicken wings with buffalo sauce on the side and asked them to replace the fries with a salad. The lady who took my order happily obliged but cautioned me that the salad would be very simple. She was right - the salad did provide the vegetables I needed - but didn't deliver on the taste. The wings were alright, but would have been a lot better with a couple more minutes in the fryer and a sprinkling of salt. The buffalo sauce was heavy on the vinegar and lacked flavor. The celery and carrots that came with the order were fresh and crunchy and the bleu cheese sauce was good. The takeout order was ready in ten minutes and the service was efficient and friendly. Will I order these again? Maybe if I'm really, really hungry and there's not much else to choose from. *sigh read more

Great spot on Magnolia for fun drinks, have wine too. Good vibe and have food too. Overall recommend

If you want a cold, overpriced breakfast buffet this is the place for you. Eggs, potatoes and pretty much everything else was COLD. Terrible, will not be back read more

Absolutely blown away by the awesome drinks prepared by London. This guy seriously knows his s***! I had him surprise me with cocktails he suggested and man, I found some of my new favorites. Highly recommend stopping in for a cocktail. You will not be disappointed! read more

I'm going to admit-- I was a little hesitant about going into a hotel lobby restaurant. The YELP reviews just kept nagging at me- so my friend and I gave it a whirl while visiting downtown Denver for a conference. Their Manhattan cocktail, made to my "less sweet is more" specifications was awesome. I had 2!! We each ordered their chicken dishes. Mine was pan roasted chicken breast with fingerling mashed potatoes. He had the oven roasted with mushroom wine sauce. Hands down his had more flavor! Both entrees served tender chicken. We split an arugula salad, avocado, cucs, goat cheese. We loved it! I'd go back-- even for a hotel lobby restaurant. Service was attentive and friendly. read more

This was a great find. I expected another hotel restaurant, in another city, on another business trip, but wow, this was a good time. The bartender was amazingly friendly. He talked to me about the cocktails, and even experimented with a few that we discussed. Ended up creating the perfect rum cocktail. The sirloin was also phenomenal, and again at the bartenders suggestion. I know where I will be staying in future trips to Denver. read more

While visiting I stopped into this restaurant for a bite to eat, the staff was very nice and the food, salad was great, the creme brûlée was delicious and the wings were okay as I was a little disappointed in the portion and the size of them as they were a little expensive for what you get. All and all good visit and I would try them again. read more

Great place for office happy hour. They will hold a section. For you if you have friends joining too.

Service, food and drinks are exceptional. Highly recommend. Great ambiance too. Good for a night out with friends!

Beware--their hours are incorrect. Apparently they've never updated them in light of the pandemic. Tonight they closed at 8 pm, several hours earlier than advertised. I recommend you call first to make sure they're open if you're planning to dine here. read more

I was in town for a work retreat but unfortunately, after a long day rather than join the team for dinner, I opted to gain some Zs and bond over drinks instead. Seeing that this was smack middle of the hotel we were staying in, it was littered with co-workers. I quickly joined my compatriots for dinner and drinks. I went for my first option: Old-Fashioned Bourbon with an extra cherry. There were no cherries. I asked for a mojito. There was no mint. I was starting to question what kind of cocktail bar this was. But alas, red wine never fails. What saved them from a bad review was the magnificent tacos I ordered. They were so good I highly recommend them. Hopefully, they stock the bar for you. read more

Pros: - convenient location downtown, even for those of us who are staying at a different hotel. - generally good cocktail - mahi mahi taco flavor was delicious - pretty good prices Cons: - no clear place to check in; wait staff made eye contact as I walked in, walked right past me, and didn't say anything until I looked again at her in a confused manner - majority of restaurant wasn't open so a large and noisy conference group at the bar made for a less than relaxing dinner - fruit flies circling my cocktail All in all, disappointed after the rave Yelp reviews. read more

I'd go with a 0 star, but don't think it's an option. We are staying here at the Sonesta for the Bronco/Packer game & had breakfast Sunday morning. The only option available was $20/per person for a semi-cold buffet & less than mediocre food. The waiter was on his own, apparently 2 people quit. Not his fault but he was very flustered. Watched another guy bussing tables & I seriously question how clean the tables are with all of the swapping tableware around among tables. The bus person had zero interest in actually helping out the waiter & evident he didn't care to be there either. They also re-use placemats which should be washed between uses! We had a table of 4, and saw one other table of 2 & possibly one more who may have dodged a bullet by just having coffee. This still seemed to be hectic for the one waiter to handle. So, $86 later, plus tip, it could very well be the worst $100 bill I've dropped in a long time. Terrible. read more

Lockwood took me by surprise! Came in for dinner on a Friday night and couldn't have asked for a better meal. To start, I ordered a Paloma which definitely hit the spot and a nice drink to start my weekend. For appetizers, we ordered a charcuterie board - great assortments of cheese and meat. We also ordered the pork belly with pineapple which is a must order appetizer. For dinner, I ordered the seared scallops which was divine. Overall experience, food, and service was top notch! read more

Great experience at this bar! It is way better than what you would expect from a hotel bar. Fish taco was very good and I would say one of the best taco I had. Also the vegetarian soup was very good. The atmosphere around the bar area is very nice while it become more Hotel-restaurant style when at the tables. read more

I would highly recommend the Lockwood restaurant the food is phenomenal and so tasty! The new menu is amazing Rick did an amazing job and it's delightful!

The Lockwood had good service, the appetizers we got were pretty tasty, but overall you could get better food/drinks for cheaper at many other places in downtown Denver. This just happened to be the place that could accommodate our party of 12 the fastest. read more

Rick was the most amazing host and makes an excellent smoked old fashion. Possibly the best in town!

Unbelievably bad experience. From waiting without being greeted at the host stand for far too long, to being ignored at our table (while the restaurant was practically empty!), to being served $15 cocktails without a hint of liquor in them - YIKES! read more

I'm shocked at the other positive reviews. Although the waiter did say they recently changed their menus and chef. I ate here two days in a row because i was staying at the hotel. I travel for work & am used to subpar hotel food. I was hoping for something better being downtown Denver. So disappointed and actually amazed at how badly they were able to ruin something as simple as a salad. Seemed more on level with a Waffle House than a nice restaurant. Terrible food. Terrible service. If you're staying for business, order in or go elsewhere. read more

Fantastic ambiance, super friendly bar staff that seem to be always smiling! :-) Management special ordered Pendleton Whiskey for some of their patrons and I reaped on the opportunity to enjoy a fantastic glass.
