Review Historian's Ale House - Denver

I've got mixed feelings about this place. I've now been twice, about a year apart, and recently they have done away with table service and posted notices of increased prices. Increased prices but no table service? This most recent visit we went at about 3:30 on a Monday so there wasn't any wait to order or get our food and drinks. That's great but what happens when it gets as busy as it was when I visited on a weekend a year ago? I imagine the bar gets swamped given they have to take food and drink orders and the outgoing food is picked up at the same place. I really like the food and drinks. The Steak Arugula salad and BLT Caesar Chicken salad are both great, the fish and chips too. I haven't had a bad drink there, and we've tried just about all of them. On the other hand the high prices mean you can quickly rack up a mean bill, especially if you order an app, an entree, and a drink. Not to mention sides are not included with entrees like burgers so that's an extra cost. The employees are nice and always helpful and the rooftop dining area is great- covered with some shade and plenty of misters. I'd like to eat here again if I'm in the area but man, not sure if my wallet can handle getting myself and the folks lunch.

This place is awesome! Super chill vibe and the food? So many choices, you can't go wrong. The drink menu is on point too. But the rooftop is where it's at—great for kicking back and they've even got TVs up there. Def coming back, 5/5!

I really liked the decor here. Nice woodwork and the historic pictures. Upstairs seating outside was great, view was alright. Qr code order, had menus and could order in person at the bar. Grab yourself service. The korean chicken sandwhich was great and unique. View was alright. Staff was accommodating.

We had lunch there today and Tyler was the only one behind the bar. She was the only one working and the service was exceptional. The lower level was very busy and she did a great job of attending to everyone’s needs professionally and in a timely manner despite that fact that is was overwhelming. I even asked her if she owned the place because she ran it like she did, she put so much thought into her responses to everyone that made her stand out. Highly recommend this place and hope you get Tyler as your server/bartender - she was excellent!!

Great daily specials. Has a rooftop bar that is pretty much impossible to get a seat at. The food is great. Their lunch special is the best on Broadway: Mon-Fri,11-3=cheeseburger, fries and beer for $5.95. The beer cheese with chips and pretzels are phenomenal. Great nightlife too.

It's impossible not to like this spot. Incredible draft beer selection both downstairs and up. Fantastic roof top bar and patio with full food service. Speaking of which, their food is so.good. They have the best fries in town! This spot is great all around!

always been one of our favorite places... esp. when they had the 6 dollar lunch burger special. it's 14 something now (thanks COVID and inflation lol) GREAT rooftop patio with TVs - the misters are killer. they do bar service right now just so you know.but food quality still great. Just had brunch (biscuits and gravy and the breakfast burrito are still killer) staff is reduced due to difficulties in Denver finding staff but the folks that are here are wonderful. (last two visits in three weeks we've had the absolute pleasure of having Raymond as our rooftop bartender- the best! And Manager Tracy is just a great person and takes total care of you. She’s a gem! Still one of our favorites for sure.

This place is so cool. You can just feel the history when you walk in. The staff is super helpful and friendly. I wish it was closer to me so I could venture there more.

I had a chicken salad and it was good. Everyone with me liked their food so that says a lot for a restaurant. Just as important, if you do stop by here to eat, try to get on the patio on top of the building. The atmosphere is great up there... of course this was in the summer on an 85 degree day. I'm not sure how it would be in the winter but they did have a fireplace and I'm sure they have figured out how to make it pleasant. :)

Historians is awesome. For transplants, it’s become a great place for Patriots games. Drinks are all good and the food is solid too.

Best pub on Broadway. Super relaxed atmosphere.

So much fun! We saw an engagement happen on the rooftop deck! Such a fun place to meet for happy hour. It’s a pretty large spot with an amazing rooftop. The drinks and food were great! We had fish and chips, guacamole and salsa, fries and a tuna salad! Plus every kind of drink you can think of! Definitely a must!

Great food, drinks, staff and dare I say vibes. Was on the rooftop and Taylor was bartending, she was awesome! I would be remiss not to say she was so good she did the work of two
