The Cooper Lounge

Stylish and decidedly romantic, The Cooper Lounge is a sophisticated retreat set high above the more frenetic activity of the Great Hall in Denver's Union Station. Here couples can enjoy high-end cocktails, an extensive wine list, beer and chef-created bites in a cozy space that, like Union Station itself, evokes all the romance of the long-ago Golden Age of train travel–, especially late in the evening when daylight has faded and the lounge takes on its most intimate ambiance. Love to spice up the weekend with a pre-brunch cocktail? The lounge opens at noon for drinks but food service doesn't start until 4 p.m. Cooper Lounge is a compact space so reservations are required for the public. And even though it's always available to guests of the equally romantic Crawford Hotel, also inside Union Station, reservations are still recommended.
