Adrift

The Best Bars In Denver - Denver - The Infatuation

"Every town needs a reliably over-the-top bar, and in Denver, that thatched roof, puffer-fish-lighted tropical paradise is Adrift. Besides the requisite idol glasses and totems, it has an impressive roster of smart takes on beachy drinks that stay on the right side of “If you like piña colada” territory. You can expect your Painkiller to come crowded with orchid and pineapple crown garnishes, and the tart and boozy Scorpion Bowl to be full-on flaming. And don’t be afraid to come hungry—the Polynesian-inspired menu is better than it should be at a bar with this much bamboo, and the spam musubi is just $4 during “escape hour.”" - allyson reedy

"Bamboo walls and colored lights strung up in fishing nets, totem carvings and murals of seaside villages, hanging boats and blowfish sculptures: This South Broadway tiki bar whisks its guests off to a tropical paradise the instant they set foot inside — and it keeps them there with a roster of cocktails served in coconuts or flaming punchbowls or funky mugs. Beyond classics like Zombies and Singapore Slings, seasonal originals warrant a spin — take the Monkey’s Fist with caçhaca, Oloroso Sherry, banana, cacao nib, coconut, chicory root, and coffee — alongside island-inflected snacks such as Spam musubi and poke nachos." - Ruth Tobias

"Run by the fourth generation of the owners’ family, this restaurant is set in an enviable position on the ground floor of the Dunmore House Hotel with views out over Clonakilty Bay. As you'd expect in such a location, fish and shellfish – such as Galley Head lobster – play a large role in the menu, as does other locally sourced produce and ingredients from their own organic kitchen garden. This is all fashioned into bright, fresh-tasting dishes that have an appealing lack of fuss and deliver on flavour." - Michelin Inspector
