RiNo Beer Garden

This place has a lot of potential to improve and be a really popular place with the hundreds of new apartments opening all around it. Pros: Location. Despite the small parking lot, great area for a ton of people to walk to. The outside area is cool vibes and they have a great beer selection! Cons: The inside is pretty depressing; dim lighting and style makes it feel like an old basement, but not in a cozy way.

Love grabbing a beer here but finally came for brunch when I saw they have a honey butter chicken biscuit. Unfortunately it’s the worst I’ve ever had and had no redeeming qualities but i was hungover so I ate it. Biscuit was super doughy and not flaky, definitely either old or low quality frozen or something. Oddly had a vanilla taste to it. Not what I would expect out of a biscuit. As usual for Denver restaurants (except for fast food restaurants…) the chicken wasn’t brined before it was fried so it was nearly flavorless. Any honey that got put on there didn’t make it to my tastebuds. Overall wack HBCB. On the bright side the Firestone Walker Blood Orange Cali Squeeze was gas and I got to sit and watch some hockey for a bit. Definitely never coming here again for food though after that introduction to their kitchen.

I ordered the PB&J burger with regular fries, along with pretzel bites and queso. As a big fan of PB&J burgers, I found this one a bit dry. I think it would benefit from adding a slice of cheese and a more generous amount of preserves to balance the flavors. The pretzel bites with queso were absolutely perfect—definitely a highlight! I’d visit again, but I’d probably try a different entrée next time.

Loved the service and great food! Fun place to come with friends. They even have space for private parties!!

We went on a gross rainy night for pub food and good beer before a concert. Lots of beer choices, excellent vibe, and food was decent. Being from Rochester, NY, the wings weren’t 5 star but were good and sauce tasty. The outdoor area would be sweet in better weather and was walkable to Mission Ballroom.

RiNo Beer Garden is a great neighborhood spot with both indoor and outdoor seating, making it perfect year-round. The food menu is solid with plenty of casual options, and the happy hour deals are a nice bonus. Chill atmosphere, good vibes, and a solid place to meet up with friends or unwind after work.

So many hazy beers!!! The outdoor seating was perfect! The tunes were even better! And the food was phenomenal!

Awesome, slightly divey bar serving up some bomb bar food. Don't sleep on the cheese steak. Awesome happy hour deals. I usually sit at the bar, but they have a large outdoor patio as well, which I'm pretty sure is dog friendly. The staff are all pleasant.

Sat outside for a bit with a draft beer, it was a neat and chill atmosphere. Ordered another pint and the Brussel sprouts (fried Brussel sprouts with bacon, red onions and topped with parmesan and balsamic glaze). Brussel sprouts were tasty, and the order was good size. Food came quickly after placing order. Sat inside to eat. They have a TON of craft beers on draft, lots to choose from. Prices weren't too high for my expectations. A bit dark inside, but not noisy. Lots of seating both inside and outside. I'd come back again.

5 Ambiance: Love the private side patio with plenty of seating & outdoor tvs. Inside is dark & cozy in the best way. 4.5 Service: Order & pick up food at the bar. Friendly & welcoming staff. 4 Food: The fish & chips, fried mushrooms, brussel sprouts were good. The southwest chicken salad & green chili tots were just ok. Appreciated the gluten free marked menu options for a member of our party but they had a gluten reaction immediately after eating.

Walked in, walked out. Tables smell like some liquid shat on them! Outside looks nice.

The beer choice and service is incredible however they are very inconsistent when it comes to their food. One day we go it's good another it's bad the food is undercooked or Fries have no flavor. They have potential if they could get their food quality consistently.

This is one of the few places in the area with a kitchen opened late on a Sunday night. There are plenty of indoor and outdoor seating options. They have lots of deals so take your time to look at the chalkboard so you don't miss out. We ordered poutine fries and a chicken sandwich. The fries were actually pretty good. The chicken was good and crunchy. The poutines were okay. I think it just needed more gravy. Overall a nice place to hangout on a Sunday night when you're hungry with friends.

Came here with a few friends for happy hour! I think it runs 3pm-7pm. They had a buy one get one drink special on certain drinks. It is very legit! I also ordered their Green Chile flatbread. It was loaded with chorizo and had a nice little kick! I really enjoyed it! I love the chill vibes in here and the staff is super friendly. Definitely recommend!

The beer garden is home for plenty of natives to Denver. Megan the bartender makes everyone feel comfortable and her taste for drinks meets your expectations. She has the best drink suggestions, her service is overly extended and is genuinely a person of the community. Food 7.5 environment 10 family friendly. A hangout for sure during the week.

Solid bar food with a chill vibe. A buddy and I went for lunch and they have great deals. Lunch specials and tons of local beer on tap. You order at the bar and can sit anywhere inside or outside. Service was great. Nothing fancy, but the people were kind and had the food ready very quickly. We both got the pesto chicken club and it was delicious. No bells and whistles, but exactly what I was looking for in a neat setting. A bit expensive for a small sandwich, but not too far out of reason.

Good food and outdoor patio. This place looks a little sketch from the outside but has a very good drink and food selection. Definitely worth stopping in if in the Rino area.

Everything about this place was on point. The ambiance, the vibe, the drinks, the staff, the food, and the look were well planned out. We enjoyed food and drinks out on the patio and enjoyed the soft breeze in the air with the misters blowing. Our drinks weren't overpriced, so we definitely got to enjoy a few rounds and some appetizers. The only thing that threw me off on the appetizers was the chorizo queso, I was expecting more of a queso fundido, but it was still a good dip. The staff was quick to serve our food and drinks and clean up our dirty dishes. Even the other gust enjoying this place were friendly and inviting, making our visit even better. We definitely will make sure to come back to this establishment the next time we're in town.

Great service & food ! Happy hour is great! Patio in Summer with TV's but no dogs allowed on patio sucks!!! Otherwise good neighborhood brewery. My favorite in Rino ! Bartenders are all great !

Ended the night here and was there until closing time. Decent selection of beers and a couple non beer options. Great outdoor patio and some parking around that's not too hard to get. Id recommend this place to avoid all the Denver crowds. And also many tvs outside which is a plus.

I was in town for a work trip and I didn't really know where we should go but I knew the RiNo area had a lot of options. We were both really happy with our meal and service at the RiNo Beer Garden. They had a huge selection of beers, which was perfect because my coworker and I drink totally opposite types of beer and their menu was standard bar food. We ordered the cheese curds, the green hatch chili flatbread and the BBQ chicken flatbread and everything was delicious! Highly recommend if you're in the area. They clearly had a nice outdoor space (beer garden) but the weather wasn't nice enough for us to enjoy.

So this place is super cute and has good prices for mimosas, love that! Me and two friends went in for mimosas and there were only three other people there, one bartender. Whoever our original bartender was, love her. We ordered mimosas and she took our card for the tab and said we could split it at the end. When we went to pay out, a different bartender took our card on file and when we asked to split she gave attitude and said "like you guys don't have venmo?" Cute vibe with a cute patio but maybe the bartenders should all be on the same page with customer expectations. We even helped her find her lost fire pit key. Would be five stars other than that weird interaction.

Best patio in Denver! Unreal beer selection and food! Crispy chicken wrap is the move

Firstly, the food was delicious. We weren't sure how good it would be since the menu didn't seem that awe inspiring but we were very happy with the food quality and flavors. Probably some of the best sweet potato fries I've ever had, seriously! The beer list is very large and diverse which always makes me happy and there is a short wine list as well as cocktails. Keep in mind this a "wait-on-yourself" type of place so you'll order your food and drinks at the bar...which may have a bit of a wait because they seemed understaffed the evening we were there. The food did come out in decent time but, again, you'll have to go get it from the counter yourself. I wasn't enthralled with the bartenders personality, he didn't seem enthused about playing the main order taker for all things RiNo Beer Garden and his personality was flat but he was keeping up the best he could. There are booths and counter seating inside as well as some sort of backroom which we didn't explore as well as a large outdoor seating area. Parking is a bitch as the lot is tight and not very large in comparison to the number of patrons the restaurant can house so plan on finding alternative parking in the area...or walk/bike. I liked the food here and beer selection so we'll be back again.

Totally not what we expected when we got there, but the food was fast and tasty. They have a huge selection of beer and the atmosphere is great!

Really wanted to try a new spot and was excited to try this beer garden. Service was awful, you could tell the people working didn't want to be there and did the bare minimum. We actually got asked if we worked here bc there was no staff around to take orders. Smh. Very disappointed with the service here. Didn't get a receipt, didn't know if they had left the tab open or closed. It was just not it. The beer selection was not the best and the food was underwhelming. Got a burger and a hot chicken sandwich and they both lacked flavor. The back patio is definitely beautiful, lots of shade and outdoor seating with tons of greenery around. It's the only thing great about this place.

Came here for a friends birthday on a Saturday in March. The weather was beautiful which was great to be able to sit on the patio with the sun shining. We were at the back at a high top with partial pergola roof covering (great for larger groups & sunny days). The menus are QR code and offers both, drinks & Food. Our server was very kind and consistent with her service. We all got different drinks (cocktails & beers) and a few things to much on. I got that steak salad (wasn't a fan of the dressing flavor & WAY TOO MUCH, it was drenched) and a side of French Fries (very authentic tasting real potato fries). To wash it all down, I got the sour beer option which was on the sweater side (very juice tasting). All in all, food just ok and outside seating was the highlight.

I really enjoyed my time here. I went for a business networking event, where the company rented out the outdoor seating. The waitress was fantastic, delivering all orders in a timely manner (especially with the amount of customers). My colleague and I asked for a nonalcoholic drink, and the waitress came back with a fun mocktail. My other colleagues were raving about the bear selection and taste. We had pretzel bites with cheese dip, queso and chips, and chips with salsa. All fantastic. They queso was so good, we needed to keep replacing it! My one regret is not getting samples or a flight to try!

Great little spot I have never seen before. Delicious beer and the food looked and smelled amazing. I will definitely be back. There are a few areas to park otherwise you have street parking! Great for groups!

Excellent daily specials. I popped in because it was close to my hotel, and I was not disappointed. Friendly bar staff, and the food was delicious. I got the lunch burger special!

Beer / Network / Seating My coworkers and I all went here for our Happy Hour to celebrate numerous people moving to the Denver office. We were not the only group there for work. There was a networking event going on too so honestly a great place to socialize after work!! Not only is the seating a lot but they have a ton of drink options. I am slowly moving to Beers and I tried a coworkers recommendation and it was their flamingo nitro sour. It was very refreshing and lite for the 99 degree day! There were SO many to choose from so you will have plenty to try. I also had a bite of their fried cheese curds and they were salty but in a good way. Perfect combo for salty food and beer.

Lovely patio. Good service. Nice selection of beers, only canned wine. Food was really decent. Not amazing, but I'd definitely eat there again. Fried pickles not the best. Fries ok. The jerk chicken sandwich was super good though. Definitely be back. Great vibes and fun spot for a weekend hang.

This place is very vibrant and fun. The outdoors is spacious with cool fire pits. The only issue here is just lack of staff. You have to go find where to order with best luck inside at the bar.

I came here to watch a basketball game and grab some food. My impression was that it was just OK. The food wasn't terribly special and it was very expensive for what you got. I got the crispy chicken salad for $15 and there were barely any toppings. It was romaine lettuce, diced onion, and diced tomato. There were no croutons or cheese. It was also drenched in dressing. I've had better fast food salads. They do have a full bar with a cocktail menu and wine. They have canned wine from Infinite Monkey Theorem, which I love.

End of an era the great servers, quality of food, and overall experience that once made RBG great is now gone. They switched everything up starting in March. Now you have to line up to order everything at the front counter. They plate the all food on paper plates. Even though the portions also changed, the prices remain the same. We were regulars and now I'm not so sure how often we will be retuning. A bummer and a bad business decision (and they got rid of the POUTINE ).

First time we have been here. This place has the opportunity to be awesome! It's not advertised very well and it's typical bar food but the tap list is pretty good and the beer garden is large with a lot of TVs. Only service dogs are allowed outside in the beer garden but they let us bring in our pup.

See previous review.... All the good seems to still be good, but the prices have soared. This isn't the kind of place I would expect to pay $45 for a burger, fries, and a cocktail (after tax and tip). It's a 90% self service place now, maybe I'm tipping too much.

I get so mad whenever I drive by this place (almost every day) because of the poor experience I had. I enjoyed a few beers with two friends on the crowded back patio, but there were WAY too many customers allowed in the venue for the amount of food, beer, and staff available that day. I feel bad for the wait staff because there ARE things out of their control. Good for the ones that can put themselves on autopilot and zone out. It's just frustrating that certain beers were out, and ordering food wasn't even an option that night because they were too busy with to-go orders. We were also asked to switch tables to make room for a bigger group, which we were happy to do, but that caused us to fall off the service map. No wait staff member ever checked in with us again. They were too busy to be flagged down, so we just went to the bar to order more beer. Get here early enough, and you can find parking in their lot, but the streets of RiNo are notoriously challenging. Never mind that because I don't plan on coming back here. There are so many other breweries in Denver to check out -- ones that don't let themselves overcrowd and underserve.

If you like run of the mill beer places, this might be for you. I can't say anything negative or positive about it. The only reason this may be remotely helpful is if you're one that likes to seek out new/unique experiences amongst the plethora of options in and around Denver, it might be a skip for you.

Not bad beer garden. Standard bar food that's done better than most with a whole wall of beers on tap. Friendly staff and a well done renovation of the building. I can remember being in here when it was under a different banner. We came here for an HOA meeting in their meeting room and its well laid out. Honestly don't let the exterior detour you. Come in and grab a drink. It's worth a try.

Great food and great atmosphere. If you have a show at Mission ballroom, feel free to go here before hand.

Stopped in last night for some drinks and snacks before a show at the Mission. Had some chips and guac and a couple of mules. It's a cute space and has a nice outdoor seating area with fires to warm by. We sat indoors because the patio was pretty full. We had a server but had a hard time getting their attention so we ordered at the bar. We got served pretty quickly there. The mules were good but seemed a bit light with too much ice. The guac didn't have any seasoning and was more like mashed avocado. Could have been better. It's such a convenient spot and the patio is so welcoming so I will come back again before the next mission show.

Came here to watch a football game and the outdoor patio was so nice!!! They had a great selection of beer! We got there right in time for happy hour. The server was amazing and made sure to make rounds before happy hour ended. They had TVs everywhere and the greenery outside was beautiful

A taphouse with many different breweries available! On a late Sun. night - my hubs and his friend wanted a night cap. This was one of the few places still open with shortened Covid-19 hours throughout the area and we were one one of the few customers around 9pm. I was happy they had a Kolsch & Pilsner available since it's my hubs fav. beer - he decided on a Kolsch. There's many seats at the bar, booths,an outdoor area for drinking and eating that we didn't partake in & lots of free parking. The Rhino mural is beautiful - very fitting name of the restaurant and where it was located. FYI the kitchen was already closed late in the evening!

Great Beer Selection at the RiNO Beer Garden. Great location too being downtown and a good after work watering hole. Our server (newly hired) had a great personality but didn't know much about the beers yet had a great attitude and let me sample one of the lighter beers I was interested in. That was appreciated. If you like tap beer and craft at that then this is the place which really attracted me. Cheers to those resellers of the craft beers that are going to change the beer market back to small brewers and regional brewers. Looking forward to another visit next time I'm in Denver.

I've been here a couple time for work but the most recent trip I ordered their steak gyro. I 100% got food poisoning from this (the steak was still cold in the middle) and I've tried to call to inform them and they don't pick up the phone. This place has definitely gone downhill.

Had a pretty solid burger here last night! Swiss, mushrooms and peppers and a perfectly cooked patty. Brussels on the side were small portioned but delicious! We split that and the poutine fries which were pretty good as well. Surprisingly small crowd for a Thursday so there was lots of patio seating left and tv on with games.

I'm in love with the whole menu. I just want it all. Besides that he fabulous fun service I received the atmosphere was laid back & with upbeat music.

If you're coming here for the environment of a relaxing garden, you've found the right place. If you're coming here for the food, I wasn't as excited in this aspect. The buffalo chicken dip was recommended to us over the beer cheese dip, but the buffalo chicken dip was puréed and watery. Quite disappointing and makes me wonder what the beer cheese dip is like. The burger was decent overall, but a small patty and was over cooked for the price. The beer selection is good and there is a little something for everyone. The atmosphere is relaxing and enjoyable, but a downfall is that you can definitely smell weed either from the neighboring dispensary or neighbors behind the garden. Maybe this is expected/common in Denver, but this was a surprise for me.

Looking for a nice spot to have a quick lunch. RiNo has a Nice over sized patio with 12 tvs for viewing. Good food and beer selection. I liked how accommodating they were with a service dog. Everything was delicious. They have brunch 10-2 sat and sun. Food was decently priced, I Would come again!

Good bar food!! The server was attentive even though they were pretty busy. They had a great selection of beer and cider on tap. They have lots of TV's in the outdoor area, if you're looking to watch a game. It's also really nicely decorated in addition to the QR code menus which are more covid friendly. The only criticism I have is the parking lot is a little cramped. We were blocked in by a party bus for a few minutes until we notified the driver. Just be careful parking and you'll have a great time.

Dropping my rating down to 4 stars as the service we got on our 2nd visit was less than impressive - the waitress acted as if she could care less about her job, even though we came on a Monday night & were practically the only people there. She also was so slow that even though we arrived during happy hour, our order didn't get taken until after happy hour. Boo! Also dropping 1 star due to the strong, pungent smell of the attached dispensary, which did give me a headache. Food was still excellent the second time, though.

This place was great! The outside patio seating was very clean and relaxing. All the workers were wearing masks. The food was delicious and so were the mimosas. Great place and great environment.

I sought out this place for heated outdoor seating and was very disappointed to find out the patio was closed when I arrived - especially because I called 3x and sent a message on Yelp a day or two before coming, all of which went unanswered. Staff was friendly and food (queso) was okay. Drink selection was good.

Really like the vibe of this place. Downtown Denver in the RiNo Art District area. Great Food, Great Vibes. Friendly Staff. The little things don't go unnoticed.. Keep it up guys!!

Brunch review.... Great deal fir $5 double mimosas (no more bottomless per online menu, but a double is in a pint glass so quite generous and tasty) and $9 strong bloody Marys. Not the biggest brunch menu, so take a look before you go - and not a ton of veggie options or vegetarian substitutes. The breakfast burrito (without pork green chili and chorizo was just eggs potatoes and cheese with pico) was large with well-seasoned potatoes and plenty of pico on top. However, when I ordered it to be veggie, they charged for sour cream even though the meat / standard breakfast burrito comes with it? Also, after 2pm mimosas shoot up in price - $9 for one or, if you get a double like the $5 deal, it is actually $18... My friends enjoyed their chicken tenders (looks bomb) and burger. The service was slow but super friendly. Lots of TVs on the patio with lots of different sports on. It got busier as the afternoon progressed. Seat yourself place. Awesome patio!

I wanted to go hiking and my bf wanted to watch the game....so we compromised and went to Rino Beer Garden to watch the game outside! Ha! The outdoor area is HUGE with tons of large TV's and picnic table style seating. There is also a fire pit! This is THE place to go to watch a game and enjoy the great outdoors all at the same time. I have not been here when there was not a game on, so I do not know what the TV noise/volume is like on a regular evening. I intend to find out and will update my review. I have been here in the past when the TV's were so loud that you could not have a conversation. This was not the case this past weekend. Our server was amazing. She was very attentive and friendly. She took very good care of us - checking on us frequently. We had the German Nachos (pic included). This is a sinfully delicious treat. It is waaaayy too big, would easily satisfy 4 to 6 people. I wish it was 1/2 the price for 1/2 the portion, that way you have room to try something else. we ended up taking most of it home. We also had the (tasty) BBQ chicken flatbread, which was a good size snack - or a meal if you are not starving. I am attaching a pic of the beer list. It's pretty vast! There is a HH, but you only includes 10 ounce beers- not sure that's all that great. But it's better than nothing. It's a bit out of the way if you are Downtown, but they do have a free parking lot out front. They are also super close to the 38th st light rail station. Quick note: The patio is not dog or smoke friendly - a big bonus for us! You can enjoy your food, without having to inhale cigarette smoke! Really a big fan of this!!!
