Where is the Best Singles Scene in Denver, Colorado?
This review is a response to the review posted about the “shady waitress.” I am the manager at DDS and was contacted by the husband of the young lady who had a tip posted to her credit card without her permission. I researched their complaint and found that there had been no tip posted to their account by our waitress or our establishment. When I called back to confirm this with the couple, they acknowledged that, indeed, there was no charge to their card other than the charge that was authorized by the cardholder. They then apologized for the accusation.Unfortunately, most credit card processing companies will “hold open” or “ping” a debit card, and sometimes a credit card, to make sure there are sufficient funds in the account to hold open a tab at a bar. This “credit check” has nothing to do with the establishment and seems to be a universal practice among credit card processing companies. Usually, this amount is $50, but it can vary. This is not a charge, but if one were to
This is your typical trendy place in Denver where the business model is to attract boring products of society (aka tools) and manipulate them into spending as much money as possible. It’s one of those places where all the tables have a card that reads “reserved” and the bouncers won’t let you sit unless you get bottle service for $200 per bottle with tip. I went there on a Friday and it was full of pretentious 20 somethings who think they are chic. The DJ was horrible and could not match a beat to save his life. Overall, this place is a joke.Additionally, it seems as though EVERY positivie review on Citysearch about this place was likely written by a manager or owner of this place trying to pose as a customer. Just read them for yourself, they sound very fake.Hey fellow Denver people, you don’t really like places like this, right? Can we please unite and boycott these crappy clubs/lounges, such as, but not limitied to Monarck, Mynt, Purple Martini, etc. so they will go out of busi
If you’re really into bars where you have to elbow your way through the crowd to move anywhere and where you are surrounded by people “making the scene” rather than enjoying a good cocktail, Funky Buddha is for you. But count me out. Maybe I’m getting old, or maybe I’m getting more wise. Either way, I don’t understand what the big deal is about this bar. It’s overcrowded, overpriced and overhyped. The only positive thing I have to say about Buddha is that the decore is really quite nice. But how can you enjoy an atmosphere that’s jam packed with loud, trendy singles? Give me a bar with a minimal crowd, a good cocktail and jazz music any day. Hmmm… sounds like Dazzle …..Pros + Stylish decoreCons – Overcrowded, Loud, Scene bar
I have been going to The Celtic ever since it first opened around 8-9 years ago. It may not be fully “authentic Irish”, but it is certainly more so than “Faux-do” (Fado) near Coors Field. They have a great selection of beers, the ambience is very casual, and (if you happen to smoke), it’s just about the only game in town (unless you want to fork over wads of cash to watch strippers at The Diamond Cabaret, or hang out at the rather stuffy Churchill Bar at the Brown Palace). There is also (usually) a live band playing on Saturday nights. If you’d rather not deal with the smoke, you can just wander next door to their sister pub, Delaney’s (where they have live music on Fridays).Slainte!Pros + Ambience (smoke and all), beer selectionCons – A bit testosterone-heavy some nights
