CAPITOL HILL. Perfect for a relaxed night out with a great group of friends, Gabor's provides stiff drinks (well specials are fantastic), tasty food, comfy red booths, and an outstanding jukebox. A bit of old Hollywood glamour can be found in black-and-white movie stills and memorabilia covering the walls. Pool tables and video poker machines in the back room provide a great opportunity to sidle away from the group. Sit back with an ice-cold gin and tonic and a hot basket of fries while you enjoy tunes on the jukebox – you'll hear Led Zeppelin, the White Stripes, and everything in between.

LODO. Occupying one of Denver's oldest buildings, multi-level Wynkoop Brewing Company was the town's first genuine brewpub and remains its favorite. The ground floor is a family-friendly dining room with a menu of traditional pub grub and American regional favorites. Upstairs is a classy, often crowded pool hall with 22 tables. If all of them are occupied, you'll have time to enjoy a handcrafted brew – the Railyard Ale and Sagebrush Stout are tried-and-true winners. Finally, in the basement, the Impulse Theater group presents wickedly funny improv to sold-out audiences. This is as "Denver" as it gets!
