"Jake Soffes owns two other notable Denver watering holes — Cap Hill’s Hudson Hill and LoDo’s the Wild, both of which double as all-day coffee shops — but Lady Jane stands out for its postcard-perfect ambiance a la 1960s-era Palm Springs. The cocktails are equally striking, combining seasonal ingredients in intriguing ways: The tequila- and sake-based Knife Play, for instance, is flavored with sage, persimmon, and five spice, while the Leaf Peeper infuses bourbon with the flavors of pepita, plum, pasilla, oats, and cacao." - Ruth Tobias, Josie Sexton, Eater Staff
"At this Highland bar, the owners have curated a detailed Scotch program that focuses on terroir-driven whisky, emphasizing farm distilleries, family-run and independently-owned estates, and locally-driven producers. Highland Park 12 Year Old is just one of the many bottles on the list. Order a charcuterie plate and some olives to nibble on between cocktails. There are no reservations here, so get in early to snag one of the simple cafe tables, counter or bar seating, or a comfy chair reminiscent of a Los Angeles living room. The space has a natural flow and feels airy and bright, perfect for drinking something deep and dark." - Vox Creative
"Located in a new building but with an interior covered in palm fronds, cherry wood, and orb lights and serving up classic cocktails and “Pet Sounds,” this bar transport drinkers from Denver to the Palm Springs of the ‘60s. Lady Jane is Hudson Hill’s cool younger sister, and its coolest factor is an all-night happy hour for diners in the neighborhood waiting for dinner tables." - Eater Staff
"LoHi’s newest bar is an instant classic, with Mid-century modern decor and an all-night happy hour for diners waiting on nearby restaurant tables. Try the Haunted by Waters made with tequila, Strega, lime, and cinnamon." - Josie Sexton
"Lady Jane brings to the neighborhood an easy setting and cocktail list. By the owner of Hudson Hill, it’s a new California-inspired lounge in the heart of 32nd Avenue. Cocktails at Lady Jane include a whiskey sour made with honey egg cream, a “pink gin” with ice-cold, undiluted Plymouth and Angostura bitters, and a summer rum swizzle with Brugal, Curaçao, preserved citrus, mint, and a float of Fernet Branca. The bar also incorporates collectible glassware with designs by Denver-area artists. A small food menu is available with prosciutto and grilled cheese sandwich." - Josie Sexton
