Mile High Station

We recently DJ'd for a dance here, and Mile HIgh Station is a great venue! The event was a huge success. The staff was great, and Sara was a huge help who is easy to work with. If you are looking for a great place to host your wedding, corporate event, or whatever else you might be planning, this is a great place to do it!

The building was a bit chilly, and it would have been nice if they had warm drinks available, but overall it is such a beautiful venue.

Our real estate brokerage hosted a private client concert here and it was the best experience! We will definitely be using the space in the future. Was perfectly spread out, without feeling like there was wasted space. All of the bartenders and venue employees were on top of it! We were able to have a few food trucks outside as well which led to great crowd flow.

Was here for a work industry event. Nice facility with good sized open room and a nice loft area. Super easy to get onto I-25 South.

This is a very good venue. The food on this occasion was buffet style and was made well but similar to other venues.

Seemed like a great place for hosting an event, like the one I attended. Army vs. Air Force college football tailgate party.

I was at Mile High Station for a spring dance and was impressed with venue. Located right next to I-25, it's not too hard to find if you take the exit to 17th Avenue. The building sits right next to the highway offering quite a bit of private parking that surrounds the building and reaches under I-25. Inside the building, there's a large main room where the dance was, but the room offered a lot of options with how much room there was. Most of the dance floor could be observed from the second level loft/balcony that overlooked the room. Slightly off the center of the room, Mile High Station offers a full fledged wrap around bar if your event included a bar. Otherwise, like at my event, the bar is covered up and the DJ is set up in front of it. Great venue for any occasion!

Garbage management. We asked to have one of 25 televisions changes to the Lions game, and we're repeatedly told no. "We don't change the TV's". Then we watch a non-manager change a bar tv to a Packers game for a few people at the bar. 7 TVs downstairs had the Ravens/Raiders. Raiders! Really? In Denver? Crap customer service guys. Crap! Won't visit hear again.

This was a nice event venue. Super spacious and had a nice balcony area with a game room. The bar and bathroom was huge as well. There's some parking but it's easier to ride share.

Greta space for our meeting today. You can be together or grab some alone time to decompress during the meeting. Restrooms are plentiful. Beautiful space. Parking available.

Mile High Station is a beautiful venue!! Absolutely top of the line!! This place is very classy with sufficient parking, as well. Great location!

We had a company event at the Mile High Station and it was Awesome!!! Plenty of parking with the option to valet. I felt safe in the area. Relatively close to some transient activity hotspots. The ambiance was beautiful with two floors. The vibe inside was friendly. The staff was of excellent quality and much appreciated. It's a spot to consider for weddings for sure. Images included with this post. We were extremely happy having our first experience at this location. Included a coat check.

Went on game day. Cool vibe and atmosphere if you want a louder venue. Had a western kicking burger which was good, you cannot upgrade to fries only chips. Service was not very good but our waitress said she had 18 tables at once so that's the situation currently

We went here for a work event and the place was great. There was outdoor seating with heaters and plenty of food. The drinks they were making were strong and there were maybe 15 bartenders between Mile High, their courtyard, and Iron Works. There were also some interesting beers on tap, particularly one sour (I didn't catch the name). The venue was a lot of fun, so that's where the 4 stars is coming from. The bathrooms were clean and there was plenty of room. We parked on-site between Iron Works and Meow Wolf. The staff was always visible, helpful, grabbing plates/trash, and being friendly. The food was okay and my favorite was the beef. Everything tasted fine, but nothing was as good as the beef (I tried potato, salad, chicken...pretty much everything they had) and even though there were multiple food areas, they all seemed to have the same food. I would have liked more of a variety.

This venue is perfect for conference style. I attended a networking event, hosted by Chase. I appreciate the food stations, bar area, upstair conference room. It is a great space for big crowds. I appreciated the valet service.

Finally after 3 years in Denver, I made it to Mile High Station. From what I have read and heard this is a popular venue in Denver. From the start all I have to say is I am glad I ubered - as far as parking goes, it is a little tight on parking, but getting in and out of an uber honestly is a breeze with a little pick up and drop off location. Walking into the venue, the atmosphere is very trendy with exposed brick walls and an open second level looking down to the first level. And let us not forget about the gorgeous chandelier hanging above. For a wedding or event this is definitely gorgeous. We went to the event for a beer festival - which to me was a little lackluster for my first one in Denver. The space was extremely tight to move around to different breweries with over hundreds of people. I will also say that there was not enough seating inside or outside. There is a cool area that you are able to have food trucks come and that was awesome, but again not enough areas to sit while needing to eat. The restroom was hard to find and very small for a venue of that size. All in all, the venue is GORGEOUS and would be a dream destination for a small wedding or gathering or party, but I wouldn't necessarily say there is room for Denver Event if over a hundred people.

I've been here probably four times. It's a venue to either host a convention or a concert. It's pretty much what it is but the great thing about this location is that it has an outside location where food trucks would be parked. It's got two levels. With an elevator or stairs to get to the second floor. The bathroom is big. Located to the right as you walk in the building. It also has its own parking lot but I would say it's not enough to accommodate the big crowd. Although nearby parking is available for a small fee.

Looking for a versatile event space?! ++ Mile High Station can literally handle everything from 40 to 500! After attending several events there over the years; it's safe to say they know how to handle a crowd. With a great outdoor space, large circular bar, high mezzanine, and smaller rooms tucked off the main space the options are really limitless. Want a venue that just exudes history?! ++ Mile High Station is where it's at! It's a turn of the century steel and ironworks building that has been repurposed into and event space! Sooo Colorado! Ha! With exposed brick, large iron beams, and great a few great updates (like the chandeliers and the circular bar) Mile High Station is def the place to be! Craving a fun event?! ++ Yep, Mile High Station Hosts a whole slew of 'em! From Denver Brew Fest to Taco, Tequilla, and Cerveza Fest and sooo many more! Follow them on Facebook to see what public events they're hosting next! It's safe to say I'm smitten with Mile High Station! I know I will be back for many more events within those bare brick walls. **Pro Tip: Everyone can agree that the parking situation at Mile High Station is TERRIBLE. But don't fret! There are tons of other options including car-pooling, Uber, Lyft, or even the nearby lightrail!

We went here for a wedding and it was beautiful! Cocktail hour was on the upper level that looked down, and the reception dinner and dancing was below. A beautiful place, amazing bar, and very polite staff

In response to my review the owners commented saying they tried to call us back. Lies. Just plain lies. No one ever followed up with us

We are planning our June 2022 wedding here at Mile High Station. I cannot say enough about how thoughtful and generous the staff have been, especially working with Stephanie through the pandemic. We moved our 150-175 person wedding not once, not twice, but 3 times, from June 2020- Sept 2021- to now June 2022- They didn't charge us each time because we moved early in advance. They have made a difficult situation much easier, and we appreciate it! Highly recommend booking at this beautiful and historic location for your next event.

This place is so much fun before Broncos games! Everyone goes here and their menu is awesome, not to mention cheap!! Get the pretzels but sub the mustard for cheese!! Cheers!!

After attending Zap Tour, Yelpapalooza, and Brewfest at this venue, i confess, i love it here! With it's circular bar, open dance floor, large patio and huuuuugeee mezzanine level, no wonder Mile High Station is one of the most popular venue's for weddings, proms and more! the staff is some of the nicest people you'll meet and continue to bring fun into the workplace :) all in all, if i'm ever planning my own event, i would def consider this unique spot! the only downside? parking. is. a. bitch. but it's all worth it :)

I went here for the Winter Brewfest, and I really enjoy going here for events. I'm not sure if I was there on an off day, but it was not very busy, and I got my fill of beer very quickly. Some vendors were missing, but that may be because I was there on a Friday, and they were coming on Saturday. I've been to a few events here and the space is fabulous. It has a great bar area, various sub rooms, huge outdoor space and very friendly event staff. My only 2 critiques would be it's kind of hard to get too (you can miss it if you've never been there before) and parking (there is overflow parking at Mile High Stadium but when the weather is very cold, it's a bit painful to walk).

This is based on the beer festival recently hosted by Coors- venue seems to be a great place for all kinds of events. This definitely suited the occasion.

Attended a beautiful wedding here. The atmosphere was trendy with an urban feel. Exposed brick walls with open space. We had cocktail hour on the second floor while the wedding party took pictures on the main floor. This venue was absolutely stunning!

I have no problems with this place, save one: There is not a large TV in a bar / venue that is huge on the inside, and minutes from Mile High Stadium. I have been here a number of times, all for different types of events. An event a couple years back featured multiple vendors showing off their craft beers, booze, food, etc, and the place was great for that. If I'm just looking for a place to belly up and have a cocktail, I prefer something a little more cozy...

An excellent venue for any special occasion. Open to the public on Broncos homes games, getting your game day beers at the best possible price and close enough to here the stadium roar! Home to 104.3 FM Sports Radio!

Mile High Station is a hidden gem tucked near Denver's Invesco Field at Mile High. The grand building is adorned with the charm of its previous occupant, the Midwest Steel and Ironworks company dating back to 1897. Make no mistake, this is no dirty warehouse. They have tastefully blended the historic industrial aesthetic with a smart contemporary touch. The building's architectural features makes Mile High Station a unique location for any event. The original brick walls and I-Beam steel construction are woven throughout the building. The giant ceilings host two custom designed chandeliers that fill the space with beautiful warm light. Few locations in Denver can comfortably seat as many guests as Mile High Station. The main floor can seat up to 350 guests. The mezzanine can hold an additional 200 people. Mile High Station can be a great location for both the ceremony and reception making it an easy one stop destination for guests. We love photographing bridal parties in and around Mile High Station. There is a row of vibrant colored buildings within walking distance from the station that make for great colorful backdrops with the wedding party. Mile High Station has high ceilings that make for a challenging environment to photograph in, especially at night. Our knowledge of balancing ambient light and off camera flash helps fill out the otherwise dark space.

This venue is so beautiful and unique! We had our reception here and almost all of our guests, who were from out of state, were blown away. You can truly make the space whatever you would like it to be and in my opinion not much decor is needed in the space. The night of our Wedding, the Houston Astros just so happened to win the game that sent them to the World Series. The many TV's and the large bar area were great to throw our very own watch party. We especially have to give a shout out to one of the bartenders who worked our wedding, Marlin. He had the best energy and provided top notch service to us and all of our guests. Overall, we had a wonderful time!

I will never recommend this venue until it comes under new management. The space is beautiful and inviting, the bartenders were friendly and helpful, the event manager was pleasant to work with, and I wish I could recommend this place. Unfortunately, the manager of the venue is rude, unreasonable, and behaved extremely unprofessionally when a miscommunication occurred onsite. While the event manager tried to offer up solutions on the spot, her boss was openly hostile not only to her but to our team trying to host the event. She was loud and disruptive in front of fellow volunteers and attendees at our non-profit fundraising event, and treated us very poorly. Even our caterer and AV tech were embarrassed and sympathetic on our behalf. Very disappointing outcome to what could have been a great relationship with continued business.

Their tagline is a "venue with personality." Indeed! I've attended several events here over the years, from private holiday parties to beer festivals to fashion shows. Parking can be a nightmare at times for big public events - heed the 'park at your own risk' sign in the lot because it can definitely get creepy and crowded under 1-25. Better yet, save yourself the trouble and park in the overflow lot at the stadium and simply walk across the street. Once you're inside though, it's fantastic. A large oval bar leaves lots of of room to accommodate crowds, there are plenty of restrooms, and I simply dig the feel of the place with the large, single pendant bulb chandeliers (not sure how to describe it, but they are cool!) This is a great raw venue space for all kinds of events. If you have the chance to attend something here, you definitely should!

I have been to 2 events here and hope there will be more in the future. I attended Yelpapalooza 2.0 and Winter Brewfest. This is the perfect setting for events like this. It's the perfect size. Mile High Station has a small, intimate feel to it, but it's large enough to comfortably accommodate large crowds, but not be over crowded. There is a great outdoor area in the back. The second level is great too. I love being able to look down into the crowd below. The bar is stellar. It's so big! It sits toward the back, allowing for a large area for tables or dancing. I think part of the reason it feels intimate is due to the style of the place. The exposed brick and concrete floor next to the black metal on the stairs and rafters, and along the mezzanine, create a dark modern look. The huge chandeliers provide dim lighting and they are really cool looking. The staff is great. At Brewfest, the bathrooms were fully stocked with the necessities, which was quite impressive to me. That I'm sure, wasn't an easy task to stay on top of. If I lived here when I was planning a wedding, this would have been the place, no doubt about that.

Rolled through with a gang of my fellow Charger friends and were surrounded by looks and boos. But i won't get too much into that. The food quality was BLEH! I mean, they are very smart to have a menu that is simple and reflects bar food/stadium food. We got at least one of everything on their menu: chicken wings, both hot and green chili, burger, chicken wrap, "nachos", pulled pork burger and hot dog. Honestly, the best thing was the bag of original Lays that come with the meals. I tried both of the wings and they tasted alright. My friends said the chicken wrap had no flavor and it was weak. My friend said the pulled pork burger "got the job done" but the bun was breaking apart, it was cold and not fresh. The hot dog just tasted like a regular hot dog, but the bun was twice the size of the hot dog wiener itself. If it wasn't for the 5 pitchers of coors light and blue moon beer, our food would probably of tasted worse. The beer helped wash down the taste.

This beautiful venue seems to have it all: -Beautiful open space -Multi-leveled venue allowing for an event with dimension and exciting dynamics -Multiple, smaller rooms that flank the main space, which allows for more set-up opportunity and possibly VIP areas -A huge wrap around bar on the main floor with what seems to be equipped with everything you need in a bar. With the obscure location (under the highway), the parking situation can not only be tough, but a little dicey if you are there late at night. With the right security, I could envision an awesome party going down here. It's huge and is truly a blank canvas to paint any picture...er, event!

Very very cool venue for events, one would think it would be a pretty successful full time club even if it is off the beaten path. Who doesn't like the seedy underbelly of a highway overpass and an eeirly dramatic interior with an old steel pull dangling from 50 feet up? Thanks so much for the staff sharing a bit of knowledge, who would've thought that WWII Naval ships were partially built in Denver Colorado of all places? Guess they only have downhill to go! Great place for an event, as Laura and the Yelp crew proved!

Went to the Lovesick Expo bridal show at Mile High Station last weekend. The space is cool but a little difficult to find. I let Siri guide me, which can be a mis-advised decision at times. She had me turn onto W. Colfax, from I-25, then onto Federal South, then some back road that took me back to Colfax, and then turn back onto I-25 south. So after going round and round in circles for a few times, I finally took the 8th avenue exit and took a right on Zuni and VIOLA! there it was. The space was really cool. Very exposed brick, downtown "station" feel. It would be a great place to rent out for a wedding reception or private event. It is very open, has an upstairs balcony area. I thought the sound system was great too for such an open space. There is a full bar as well. The bridal expo itself was a little lacking. They were aiming towards "the cool at heart" and tried to have a more hipster theme promising burlesque and other entertainment. The only entertainment was a guy walking around with a giant snake around his neck (no thank you!) and a group of "light dancers" with hula hoops and led lights on a string that they were slowly twirling. I have seen better glow stick dancers in the front row at a Pretty Lights show... For the amount of talent and truly "cool at heart" in Denver, this show really disappointed. Also, the selection of vendors was tiny. It seems like the only people who showed up were photographers. There was only one flower vendor (who didn't seem to realize that her fall floral arrangement wasn't fitting for a spring wedding), zero music or dj options, one cake vendor and one wedding paper vendor who is out of Boulder. Our wedding is in 4 months and we are in the need of finding a few vendors for last minute things: cake, seating/table cards, etc... this event just did not check any of those boxes for me.

One of the best event places in Denver, and they have excellent beer on tap. Was there this evening for the Paper Show which was a Paper Fashion Show. The host puts on an excellent party. Great place for weddings or any reception, and its SO close to downtown. I hear you can pre-party here before Broncos games.. Oh, and did I mention they have FREE WiFi?!

Great open space for any type of event. We attended one of the Denver International Wine Festival events last night and it comfortably held hundreds of people. Granted, the event could've been a little bit better organized, but the venue itself is well suited for a variety of event types. As others have said, the parking leaves something to be desired. In addition to the large bar, immense open floor for dancing or whatever, there is a large mezzanine level that's good for people watching down below. If you're looking for a spot to hold a bit corporate party or even a wedding, this makes a beautiful spot.

This place is really super nice! Hidden out of the way under Colfax and near Invesco Field lies a remarkable large, spacious, tasteful venue, with a modern yet rough-edged style. The "chandeliers" in particular are a remarkable design. In my last visit, I was here for Kegs, Casks, and Curds, a beer/whiskey/cheese tasting. Great layout, plenty of space to move around in, and no real congestion issues even with long lines. Definitely a cool place to have a medium-sized event!

Mile High Station - A Haiku Food, drink and the like, One building to rule them all, Its Mile High Station I have struggled for a while trying to write this revue. Mile High Station is a pretty unique place. Its basically a big building for other events. A venue for other reviews. So its not easy to form opinions. They can be jaded easily. I have been to many different gatherings here. Some of them have been 5 star worthy. Others have been negative stars (a black hole? is that negative stars?). But as a place to have these kind of functions, Mile High Station excels. Mile High Station is a terrific venue. Its the perfect blend of size and familiarity. Good size bar, lots of room, an upstairs and down. Everything you could ask for. So I recommend that you get on their mailing list. Or follow them on Twitter. Because eventually you will find an event that you are excited for, and that is when Mile High Station truly delivers.

Incredibly unsafe. Intoxicated people aren't cut off or removed. My friends and I had to go find police ourselves to avert violence. There is no real security. Wasn't even carded upon entry, it's that lax. If you pay these prices for beer and food you should at minimum be able to enjoy it. Amazingly poor establishment.

About a year ago, my highschool, Monarch highschool, booked our prom here. We spent lots of time fundraising to come up with the money (about 12,000) to pay for the venue. Unfortunately the day before prom a snow storm rolled in and our principal cancelled prom as a safety precaution since the venue is in Denver and kids would be driving themselves. Mile High Station was not willing to work with us at all and willingly kept the 12000 dollars even though our prom was cancelled there. The weather however was not our fault. Now we may not have a prom venue due to the fact we have no money for one.

Excellent little rental space. A refurbished iron foundry given new life. Attended a banquet for Mothers Against Drunk Driving. No bar, but I think that was more event specific as they appeared to have the facilities to run one or more bars. The food, which I am assuming was prepared in-house, was very good. The meal plan was Barbecue (a personal favorite). Three meats (chicken breast, pulled pork and beef brisket) and a nice selection of veggies. If I ever have to book a rental space in Denver for 100-300 people this will be among my first choices.

I went to the Mile High Station for the Zap tour. It was my first time to g there and like most people I got lost. It is a great venue for a party, great history and wide open spaces. I also went here for the YELP event. The place can hold a lot of people with out feeling too full. If i had a big event to plan I would certainly consider this place. It has a full kitchen, good parking, accessible restrooms and a bar in the middle.

I have been here a handful of times for work events, beer festivals, and to have a few drinks before and after Broncos games. It's incredibly spacious and just beautiful. The bar is huge and they have just about anything one could think of to drink. The waitstaff and the bartenders are friendly and on top of it - even when it is packed like before a Broncos game. It's easy to find next to the old Iron Works Building under the Colfax Viaduct. The only thing that is kind of a pain is the parking situation. The lot itself is pretty small and can be a little hairy to get in or out of. However, if it is the off season at the stadium, you can park there and not worry about getting towed or ticketed.

Fun place to hang out before the game. Friendly staff, decent food, and lots of televisions to watch the games.

I attended a wedding here, and this location turned out to be a gorgeous venue! The ceremony was set up downstairs and felt very intimate. Then the cocktail hour was upstairs while the staff downstairs worked quickly to set up the tables for dinner. The huge light fixtures hanging down from the middle of the room provided a beautiful backdrop for pictures. I love all the vintage and original features of the building. The restrooms were nice and kept clean throughout the night. There was plenty of parking for guests in their lot.

This place is awesome! Exposed brick inside, great bar and funny bartenders, outdoor seating.. what's not to love? The ride over is a bit sketchy at night, but the actual place is really nice.

I was invited for the 80's Ski Party-- http://www.yelp.com/events/denver-80s-ski-party Great event!! Had a good time meeting new people and enjoying a couple beverages and some "Totally Awesome 80's Tunes" all to benefit a great Charity. I hope to be more involved with this event next year. If anyone is looking to have an event at a venue somewhat "out of the ordinary" -- check out Mile High Station. Easy to find (under Colfax & I-25) Plenty of parking Large open venue with a nice looking layout and bar area

Apparently I forgot to review MHS after we got married here...whoops! We'd looked, and looked and looked for a venue that was affordable, could hold more than 75 people and had some personality. We'd looked in the mountains, in Denver, in Chicago and quite frankly I was tired of looking. Then someone mentioned MHS and so I zipped over to take a look and I instantly fell in love. It had character, reminded me of some of the venues in Chicago I had loved and I absolutely adored the giant chandeliers and catwalk. We put down a deposit for our wedding date and it all went smoothly from there. I loved that we brought in our own caterer because it allowed us to get exactly what we wanted. The pictures from here were incredible, although that has more to do with our outstanding photographers. Overall I was beyond happy with the decision to get married here. It was close to downtown which was helpful for all of our out of town guests, we walked back behind MHS to find some incredible picture locations and everyone raved about the fact that cocktail hour was upstairs and the reception was downstairs, being able to watch from above while we were introduced, etc. We worked with Dana and she was great!

We loved "tail gating" here before a Bronco's game this fall. It felt like we were at the stadium already. The menu wasn't that impressive- there were only a few things on it. But, my chicken wrap was pretty good. I think it's safe to say, though, that you go here for the atmosphere, and not the food.

We held our wedding at Mile High Station. It is an absolutely gorgeous wedding venue, especially for fall weddings. You can easily hold the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception in one great place. Melissa was our point of contact and was very accommodating in many ways (rehearsal, numerous emails/questions). The bartenders/staff were great, and everything ran smoothly. I couldn't ask for a better wedding day. However, when I received our final bill, I lost some trust in their business. We were aware there was a 20% gratuity charge that goes with the alcohol bill in our signed contract, which seemed fairly standard. Yet, we inaccurately assumed that 20% gratuity would then be divided between the Mile High employees who worked the venue the day-of. However, we learned after the wedding that while it is called "gratuity" it's actually a house charge that the "day of" staff does not receive. (I'm grateful that we still brought cash to tip the bartenders on that night as well as our friends who tipped throughout the night). So from my perspective we gave their business a 20% tip on the alcohol we purchased from them, or they charged us 20% more for alcohol than we really thought. As an example, I would never support a restaurant if I learned that tips supposed to go to waiters, actually went to the owners. While I acknowledge Mile High can charge whatever they want, and however they want, I felt intentionally mislead about the verbiage of where my money was going. That in incredibly unfortunate, since we really enjoyed our night.

A very cool place for big events. I have been to 2 here. One being the Floyd's 99 holiday party (which I planned). Stephanie was super helpful in planning and the venue had so much personality and such a cool vibe. A huge space that is great for hair shows, weddings, pre-bronco game, and much more. A bit spendy for renting out the event, but the bar is pretty neat. Takes up a huge part of the downstairs, but still leaves dance floor space. Only complaint- the sound didn't work too well with our DJ in the space. Not sure if that was the equipment or the venue. every time we opened the kitchen door the music would get all staticy. Besides that a great time! Also went to the Yelp party here - good TIME! Hard to find, but good parking.

This seems to be a great venue for special events. The space has a lot of room, and is very open. I've been here for private events as well as Broncos pre-game, and have always had a good experience. The beer festivals here are a bit rowdy, and I am definitely a fan of that! What's odd though is that even though they host really cool local beer events, their regular tap line is quite lackluster! Fix that, and this place gets 5 stars.

What a great venue right in the heart of Denver. Spent two evenings here for Denver Brew Fest and was just taken away by the space. Full bar in the middle of the main room, ample room out back for a huge tented party, upstairs too with little rooms hidden here and there... Would love to attend more events here at Mile High Station. We are getting married next year, out of state, but think this would be such a cool wedding venue (IF YOU ANTICIPATE A LARGE AMOUNT OF GUESTS). The space is just so large that I think it may feel like you have very few guests at your event if the room isn't all filled up.

We got married here over Memorial Day weekend and it was the perfect place for us! It has a very modern yet old world feel to it with it's exposed bricks. The layout is very open and spacious, so you don't feel at all cramped. Highly recommended!
