The Ultimate Guide to Late-Night Dining in Denver

"To dismiss Occidental as a punk-themed dive is to do a disservice to this little sibling of Williams & Graham, bartender Sean Kenyon’s celebrated cocktail destination next door. While it most certainly is that, it exudes a witty charm that elevates both its decor and its menu. The crackerjack crew whips up original drinks laced with everything from chocolate-infused bourbon and marshmallow simple syrup to chicory liqueur and tobacco bitters, all of which pair with an array of easygoing but well-made snacks on offer until 1 a.m.: cheeseburgers topped with crab dip, say, or tots loaded with chicken shawarma, mozz, and lemon-parsley tahini." - Camila Navarrette, Eater Staff, Ruth Tobias
