I like to go to hansens' when i'm in the area - great for a stop from the lightrail. The bartenders are friendly. I've never had a problem with poor service. The patio is awesome and the food is delicious. The only thing I haven't liked is the hummus and one time the french fries were cold. - but I just asked for fresh ones with no problems. Happy hour is good and they have a good selection of late night food. The upstairs has pool tables and a bar and bathrooms - good for a group. The place seems to attract a mid 20's- early 30's group and then an older upper middle class crowd - a little more upscale than your standard neighborhood bar.
Pros: affordable, good food

I'm from out of town. I had visited Hanson's while in Denver once before. The food was good but the service was slow. I chalked the slow service up to the large crowd. Today I returned to Hanson's early thinking I would beat the crowd. I was pleased when I arrived to see vacant tables, but was told by the hostess that there would be a 5 minute wait to let the wait staff catch up. After a 10-15 minute wait and no further contact, a couple walked in the door, didn't wait for the hostess as the sign requested, went to an empty table and were immediately seated by the hostess while my party and I were still standing at the door. Such service is not only poor it is impolite. I can only conclude that if you are not a regular recognized by the hostess you will not be treated well. I left without being seated and shall not return.
Cons: Very poor service.
