    Game we had to watch on our phone with :19 left since Toms doesn't care about women's sports
    Casey R.

    The WNBA game was playing and there was less than a minute left in a one point game. They changed all the TVs to WWE 70 minutes before the event began. Could've let the WNBA play the last min... no regard for women's sports here

    Potstickers. Already covered in sauce. I'd prefer to dip.

    I never come here because it's too expensive. Everything is ridic priced and then they add multiple fees. Gratuity: You don't add gratuity on top of tax as a rule. If a customer prefers to tip more, that's their choice to decide, but it should be calculated by businesses correctly. Patrons shouldn't be 'expected' to pay gratuity to servers as an extra tip on the tax money they pay to the government. So if govt tax is $10, we wouldn't tip the server 20%, or $2, for the act of charging tax... Even those incorrect tip percentages were still calculated wrong! The actual math was incorrect and doesn't equal the values listed of 18%, 20%, 22%. They are mathing wrong and it's gross. Idk how a biz can mess that up accidentally and still be running a business which relies on accurate math. All of this added $ adds up and I try not to trust any suggested tip amounts because of false numbers, Tom's is an example. Reminder that Denver pays one of the highest hourly wages for servers. Most American cities pay a handful of bucks an hour for servers (not bartenders, which is minimum wage). But Denver is up there with much bigger, and prolific cities (think $2 an hour vs $17 -- it's wild if you didn't know!). One time I came for a football game, they promised to have a section with my game on (I called ahead) but they couldn't deliver on sounds and kept having issues. Which is stressful when your game is live! So for these reasons, it's just not a spot I choose to frequent. Probably get more out of tourist/business visitors or those who somehow (in this current climate) have extra money to blow.

    Tom's Watch Bar is perfectly located in McGregor Square, very convenient whether you're heading to a baseball game at Coors Field, a concert at Summit Music Hall, or just looking for a fun place to hang out and watch a game. And one can literally watch any game, thanks in part to the massive HD television setup Tom's has smack dab in the center of the dining room. No matter which sport or team you follow, chances are you will be able to watch it at Tom's. I came here for some pre-concert grub and even though the place was packed (the Av's, playing an away game, and Nuggets were playing that same night) the service was impressively quick. We were seated and served way faster than expected for being a walk-in's. The burger was absolutely yum. I had the Bacon and Avocado Burger with Tots and it was one of the best I've had at a sports bar. The restrooms on the lower level are accessible for those using mobility assist equipment but the entrance may be a little more challenging to negotiate. Parking is, as the usje, also a "fun adventure", so definitely recommend the parking garage at One Wynkoop (closer to McGregor Square) or 19th and Waze (for a bit of a walk).

    What a great place to catch a game on the screen , friendly staff , fun decor and it is a big place so plenty of seating. Wings hit and the beer was delicious. I even won a free contest that made it even better. Lots of pics of inside, if just want a beer and good food with a gas on the screen or if there would have been a at home baseball game that would have been even better . Grabbed a beer and went to a baseball game because you are right there .

    Cornbread pancake & Nashville hot chicken - it's ok
    Kearstin E.

    First time visiting this location after a busy baseball game, and they were able to seat our group of five with no problem at all. The place is super clean, both upstairs and downstairs, with tons of screens so you can watch pretty much any game from anywhere. I really liked that there are so many different rooms and vibes to choose from--outdoor dining, upstairs golf simulators, and it's even dog-friendly on the patio. For food, I went with what sounded most interesting: the cornbread pancake with Nashville hot chicken. The chicken itself was great, and the sauce had amazing flavor, but the portion of chicken was pretty small compared to the oversized cornbread pancake. The pancake was unfortunately undercooked and dry, so I didn't end up eating much of it. We also got an order of the cheese curds and they didn't have the high quality batter I'm used to these were more like fresh out of a frozen box - you can skip those as well. I've been to their Vegas location for brunch before, and I remember the food, drinks, and overall vibe being a notch above--maybe I just picked the wrong thing here. Either way, I'd definitely come back to try something else, because the atmosphere and service make it worth another visit.

    I came here for a private event upstairs, so it wasn't a typical experience. The servers were really attentive with our open bar. We had food on a buffet and it was also really good. There is tons of space there and it has a cool vibe.

    The Square

    We went for a night walk at Mac Gregor square downtown Denver . It was beautiful. Lots of restaurants , sports bar and cafe. The Coor's stadium beside the square. The area was clean and lots of street lights. Nice for a night stroll Then went for a drink at Tom's ordered craft beer and Thai chicken wings. Really tender and juicy Service was great.

    Duck's watch day!  Whooooop!

    Great place to watch a game and have libations and food. Staff did an excellent job and establishment was spotless. Would go again when in the area and wanting to watch a game.

    The beer is always cold.

    Stopped by Tom's Watch Bar while in town for the weekend, and it was the perfect spot to catch some college football before the Broncos' epic come-from-behind win the next day! The place is packed with TVs--there isn't a bad seat anywhere. The atmosphere is energetic and full of life, making it a great place for any sports fan. The staff was friendly and attentive, and the food was excellent--way better than your typical bar fare. Whether you're here for the game, drinks, or just good vibes, Tom's Watch Bar delivers all around. Definitely worth a visit when in Denver!

    First time here for a meetup with college alumni. Parking is a bit dicey, but I found a lot near Coors Field that wasn't too expensive. Once inside, this place is huge with lots of TVs. The beer selection wasn't as big as I might've expected, but there was still a decent selection, and I managed to find something I knew and liked. For food, I had the Mediterranean chicken grain bowl. While yes, it had grain in it, I would compare it more to a salad than an actual protein bowl, especially since it even came with dressing. It was very good and also did a job good of filling me up. Even if though they were busy, service was around whenever it was needed. I'd definitely go back if I was downtown and looking for a place to watch a big game.

I love restaurants with a large menu that offers different types of food. It's perfect when people don't want the same things or for those who want to taste several unique dishes. Our family ordered: Three Cheese Pizza - Although it sounds boring, this pizza was SO GOOD! I do not like cheese pizza and never would order a cheese pizza because it's just simple. I like my pizza with meat and toppings! HOWEVER, this pizza was exquisite! I was surprised that I liked it. My husband said it may be one of the best cheese pizzas he has ever had. Mediterranean Salmon - I love this entree! If you look at the ingredients closely, this meal has fresh whole foods that are perfectly balanced. You have great carbs and fiber from the quinoa, protein and healthy fats from the salmon and the total calorie is great. Although this is considered a healthy choice on the menu, the flavors are ALL there! The meal may not be as appealing compared to maybe a cheeseburger or pasta, but don't sleep on it! Cali Roll Stack - This was phenomenal! The flavors were divine and after finishing it, I wanted more. This was basically a giant sushi roll. The size is huge that you can even order this appetizer as a meal. If you do order it as an appetizer, you will be fighting for the last bite. I don't eat at Yard House often, but maybe I should! Every entree on the menu sounds delicious. I highly recommend Yard House to anyone who is tired of eating the same dishes at restaurants. The menu here is fun to explore and you will not be disappointed in whatever you order.

The pulled pork sandwich was really good, especially with the texas toast it came on. My drink was good if you like sweet drinks (I do). The peach crumble was delicious and was perfect on a hot day (it comes with ice cream). It did come out fresh, so it was hot. It was pretty cool inside and the decor fit the theme.

I sat there long enough without a menu that the CUSTOMER NEXT TO ME finally handed me one--shoutout to her for unexpectedly joining the waitstaff. Eventually, one of the two bartenders appeared and took my drink order. About 15 minutes later, the drink arrived. Food, however, remained an elusive concept because he never came back to take my order. To be fair, he was extremely busy. There were other customers to attend to, people to socialize with, a computer system to stare at in visible confusion, and--most importantly--limes to cut. I don't know what those limes had that I didn't, but they received a level of attention and commitment I could only dream of. Meanwhile, I watched other guests receive service while I sat there wondering whether I needed to submit a formal application to order lunch. As the lone Black woman dining by myself, the difference in attention was hard not to notice. I can't tell you what was in his head, but I can tell you what happened: other people were waited on, while another customer had to give me a menu and neither bartender bothered to take my food order. Eventually, I accepted that lunch was not part of my dining experience and left. One star for the drink. Five stars to the random customer who apparently recognized that restaurants traditionally provide menus and take food orders. And my sincerest congratulations to the limes--I hope they're very happy together.

The ambiance has a cozy coastal tavern feel which is a nice contrast to the rest of the hotel. Our group ordered both cocktails and mocktails and everyone enjoyed their drinks. It's nice that there are non-alcoholic options that aren't just soda or fruit juices. We started with 1/2 dozen west & east coast oysters, trout dip, & both the French onion and clam chowder soups. Everything was enjoyable. Was it the best I've had? No, but it still hit the spot. I agree with some other reviews that the bagel chips with the dip are a little on the dry side and not quite enough for the amount of dip, but no one seemed to mind. The dip was definitely more heavy on the cream cheese, but had good flavor. Our group loved the soups. The chowder being the standout. I will typically always order a FOS if it's on the menu and this one was pretty good. Nice Gruyère cheese and an oxtail broth. Also not the best I've had in Denver but one I'd order again. For entrees we got the lobster roll and the fish n chips. All enjoyable, but not worth the price in my opinion. The lobster roll was a bit small and for almost $50 that was a bit of a letdown.
