Saint Ellie

Tucked below fabulous Colt and Gray in LoHi, Saint Ellie is an excellent bar and lounge in its own right and the place to sample some of the stellar fare for which Colt and Gray is known. Like other bars on this list, it operates on a first-come first-seated basis, so arrive early to avoid a wait. The cocktail list is seasonal with offerings that might include a Luca Brasi, Fork in the Road or The Loneliest Monk. For the best in creativity, go for the Bartender's Choice and let the staff create a cocktail that meshes perfectly with your flavor preferences. Depending on how hungry you are, you might choose a snack, small plate or large plate to accompany your cocktail. However you do it, you can't go wrong.
