You are better off grilling at home.

These are the best burgers in Denver

by JedZeppelin

Always a beer of the day on sale. Like that a lot. The burgers are the best. Better than CityGrille. Better than My Brother's Bar. Better even than fancy steakhouses (Elways, etc...). Think I'm wrong? I'm willing to continue to try the competition... tell me what I'm missing.....

• Pros: I am an expert... and these are the best burgers in Denver
• Cons: Crowds can make the wait long... not a huge fan of the fries

Best Burger in Denver

by OLY82

I like to sit at the bar and order Bloody Mary's on while watching whatever sporting event is on and getting an earful from the friendly staff while waiting for my burger. I like to get my burger with cream cheese and jalapenos.

• Pros: Best Burger
• Cons: Hard to get a table during peak hours

Felt like we had our own personal chaperone

by Dip1098

So for my birthday last night we decided to stay local and head to the Cherry Cricket. After having a good first experience at this semi-dive bar we decided to head back. The first of the many turn-offs to this place happened when one of the girls we were with (28) had forgotten her id, so instead of her heading back home she just decided to not drink at this place. UNFORTUNATELY the staff at the cricket did not "trust" us so they had one person at all times stand in the corner of the outside patio and shadily watch us. Needless to say it was rude and did not allow anyone to fully enjoy themselves. Things like "dont try anything" and "we'll be watching you" made us feel as though we had done something wrong from the second we arrived. The night ended when the girl we were with was informed she had to leave at midnight bec/ they were no longer serving food and she was deemed underage. Place made us feel unappreciated and as though our business was not welcome there.

• Pros: none to list
• Cons: customer service, friendliness

Great place to watch the game, crowded!!

by tuckerdekat

This bar has great ambiance, and it located in my favorite Denver neighborhood. We watched the soccer finals a few years back the first time I had been there, and it was a perfect spot. The drinks were good, plenty of TVs to watch the action, and an overall jovial crowd made for a grand time. Cherry Creek dissolved away, and we were in England throwing back a few pints with our best buds. The only drawback was lack of parking in the area. But it won't stop me from bringing everybody I know?whenever I can! Bottoms up!

• Cons: parking

not bad

by jaimo

Seems mellow and laid-back, especially for the Cherry Creek area, with decent burgers and the like. Crowded. Parking could get tricky here. If you want to spend a night of dinner and other activities in a less yuppie-fied area, you might want to try something closer to downtown Denver or west and northwest Denver.

Best dive bar and burgers in Denver

by ireandeau

This is one of my favorite places to get a burger and a brew. I have eaten here several times and the wait times have always been reasonable, and the food fantastic. Remember, that it is bar and everything will really be ok. I always get the Cricket burger with smoked cheddar and some fries or onion rings to share with everyone. Last time we tried the mac and cheese bites and they were really good. Fried food heaven.

• Pros: Great food, good beer, awesome TV's for the games
• Cons: Can be a wait to get in when busy.

Horrible Customer Service

by Atarski

While the food is well done, the service makes the experience not worthy of repeating. I even gave the Cherry Cricket a second chance and once again they blew it. The second time we didn't even actually eat there. We stood at the door waiting for someone to seat us for ten minutes, we were completely ignored by every member of the wait staff for that entire period, not one word was spoken to us even though we were frequently walked right by. And when the dim witted hostess finally arrived, with no explanation or apology, she asked us if we wanted to be put on the list, as though maybe we were standing there for our health, only after asking the people who had walked in the door right as she walked up (as in ten minutes after we did). I don't mind there being a wait on a Saturday night, but the complete lack of competence is inexcusable. Their wait staff leaves much to be desired.

Best burger ever

by drlsubaru

It may be a dive, but the burger is honestly the best I've ever had. Any aficionado of burgers MUST try this. I go white cheddar and mushrooms medium rare with some queso and chips to start.... make sure to douse the queso with Cholula!

BEST burgers and wings in Colorado

by KokoB

I hate to tell people about this place because it's crowded enough already. I am the world's expert of chicken wings and my husband of burgers, and this is best place for both. Good prices, even better food, and more beer than you know what to do with. The people watching is great since it's the closest thing to a dive bar you can get in the uppity Cherry Creek area. No pretension here! Seriously, we've gotten all our friends hooked and we don't even live nearby!

• Pros: food, beer selection, fast service
• Cons: sometimes the pitchers of beer aren't the coldest when they come out
