The Best Bars In Denver - Denver - The Infatuation

"We promise we’ll get to the wine in a second, but the first thing you should know about Room For Friends is the flights. Not the wine flights—the Cheez-It and Oreo flights. This midwestern through-and-through spot prioritizes proper snacking in the form of a sampling of four of the finest Cheez-It and Oreo varieties, bacon cheeseballs with Ritz crackers, and chicken ranch wraps. The salty crackers, especially, pair beautifully with most of the well-priced wines, which include some pretty out-there glasses (definitely try the smoky South African Barista Pinotage) and more familiar varietals. It’s evident that the Room For Friends crowd isn’t into fussy food or dry ice cocktails, which would be out of place among the garage-sale-find furniture and Cheez-It platter anyway." - allyson reedy

Food is great, wine selection is fantastic, atmosphere is cozy and lively at the same time. The owners are so nice! And I can never resist the trash panda bowl.

My wife and I just stopped in to Room For Friends on a partial whim and I am now disappointed in my prior self for not coming here sooner! It is cute, quaint, friendly, and homely. The owners are extremely knowledgeable and they have great selections and even better prices. One of the things that they pride themselves on is finding great wine for $15/glass or less! Happy hour from 5-7PM is a huge plus! I was joking with my wife and telling her I wished they had Txakoli on the menu and then shared that with the owner… his response, ‘I’ll have some delivered in tomorrow’. Family friendly, even for those of us with twin babies! I will be returning and might I add, frequently.

We just tried Room for Friends tonight and loved it! The owners were so kind and knowledgeable. The space was comfy and cute with plenty of room. When we arrived around 5 pm it was pretty empty and slowly started to fill - it was a lot busier by 7pm. It was an afternoon/evening well spent. We will be back!

Absolute delight. Came here after seeing the rave reviews and was enchanted: the ambience is cozy and inviting, the prices are exceptionally fair, and when I asked for a staff-selected flight I was so impressed by the things I got to try and their explanations, including a very unique Pinotage! The staff made us feel like family even though it was our first time in, and I cannot wait to make this a regular spot for everything from solo reading/sketching to date nights, game nights, or group outings. Next time you’re looking for a wine bar, skip the uptight, overpriced spots and come to this place and feel like you’re home, cheez-its and all.

Came here on a weekday evening. Sat immediately. The owner was so kind, and the food was perfect for a cold night. Their NA options were great! Def recommend for a friend night or date night

Absolutely one of the most welcoming and cozy places in Denver! First time here and totally blown away by how friendly the owners are, how lovely everything looks, and how delicious the snacks are. Seriously the best ranch in Denver. Great selection and really great prices for such a great experience. We'll be back and I'll definitely be bringing others here. I think this would be a great so after perusing the galleries nearby.

This place is phenomenal. So special! Wines, snacks and service were all amazing. Michael and Heather both make every visit so incredibly special. They have a wonderful selection of wines for everyone. My husband and I have very different taste when it comes to wine. But we were both so happy with everything that was suggested. Learned so much and was pleasantly surprised by the wines from countries you would not expect. We were only in Denver for 3 days and made it a point to go back in. We both cannot wait to come back.

This place is so cozy and cute. I love coming here with the girls for some wine! The service is always great and has become our favorite cozy spot.

This is such a beautiful place. From the outside facade, to the decorations inside, to the warm and welcoming people who work there. We didn't indulge in any food because we arrive to this quaint place after having a filling lunch. However, we were very excited to have some wine. I picked the BBQ wine flight which consists of Pinotage, Malbec/cab Franc, and Tempranillo. The aromas and flavors were fascinating. Our server was kind enough to share some of his chocolate with us (so kind of him) and the wine experience was elevated thanks to him. They have board games, and I think they were getting ready for some live music but we left before time. I had a fabulous time and I would love to visit again.

Yelpers, so sorry for not grabbing pics of this little special gem. Wrapping up dinner in the area and was on the hunt for a wine bar. Enter Room For Friends. What a great find. Very relaxed atmosphere. It's definitely got coffee shop vibes: chill, comfortable, no judgment. It's a place you pull up a seat and a glass (or a flight) and relax. The service is wonderful. Friendly, helpful, and attentive. What more could you ask for? Enjoy folks. Again, this won't disappoint.

Went here on a date, it was awesome. The couches and tables are set up for any occasion and staff was really nice. We got a bottle of wine and the cheez its platter. They give you a TON of cheezits. Very good time and yummy wine.

The Santa Fe art district is a place I don't get to enough! I've attended a couple of group events at Room For Friends and it's a lovely little spot owned by a wife & husband duo that left their corporate careers to start this little business of love. Inside, the area has an eclectic but comfortable design and a small bar for seating there, too. They also have an outside patio that I'm sure they'll continue to upgrade as they're able. There are some simple snacks on the menu for noshing with your wine. I'm sure they'll kind of figure their menu and system out as they continue to be open, which has only been about a couple of months. Wine flights are available, too, but feel free to ask for tasting sips before choosing as they're ready and willing to provide with a splash! I root so hard for startups like this where people had the courage to forego the negatives of corporate life. And it's a really cute spot on top of it!!

Stumbled upon this place and absolutely loved it! The wine selection was exciting and covered all bases. We loved the laid back environment and the owner had a lot of fun details to share about the wines. Can't wait to go back and try more!

Super cozy vibe! Comfortable seats and an atmosphere that makes you feel like you're sitting in your own living room. We came here with a group for happy hour with about 15 women and they were super accommodating. Light snacks, friendly service, and reasonable pricing. Hope to return!

If you haven't been to Room For Friends for karaoke night, you are seriously missing out. Jamie, the host, is an absolute rockstar -- hilarious, welcoming, and knows how to bring the vibe. The energy is unmatched: think amazing wine, a crowd that's actually into it, and a playlist that swings from classics to guilty pleasures. Whether you're there to belt it out or just sip and vibe, it's the perfect mix of chill and fun. Five stars for the wine, ten stars for Jamie, and all the stars for Monday karaoke. Don't walk... RUN.

Great service and lots of small snacks and broad wine list and flights. Quiet ambiance downtown with a good outdoor area. Parking was easy to find on the street and the staff knowledgeable.

Such a great atmosphere, great wine, and great service! I'd never been there before and had a delightful conversation about where to sit with the five other people there when I walked in... the kind of vibe where everyone will poke you a little, but in the spot where they know you're ticklish instead of sore. I've already texted a bunch of friends to recommend it, and I'll be back for sure.

Super cozy neighborhood wine bar, been decorated super well. The owner wasn't very friendly, which surprised me based on other reviews. Barely even said hi, and made no recommendations on wine selections. However, the bartender was great, super attentive and kind. So bit of a mixed bag, I would try it again despite the cold reception from the owner.

Truly an amazing time!!! The interior is cozy and welcoming, the staff is amazing and walked us through any questions we had. We happened to come in on trivia night and that was a blast! I decided to order a bottle and was offered multiple tastings and given a discount on the bottle. Thank you so much for the amazing time, definitely will be coming back!

We came across this place as I try to taste all the wine bars in Denver. I thought their wine was pretty good but didn't try enough to have a strong opinion overall. The owners are so friendly and great, it felt very comfortable within minutes of being in there. I think their whole vibe is trying to not be the typical stuffy wine bar and allow a place for all levels of wine lovers. They have a nice patio in the back and comfy/grandmas house like chairs on the inside. Will be back!

Awesome place! I love how airy and bright it is inside with the cozy couches, big tables, and wall art. The people were friendly, and they didn't rush us at all. It was a wonderful place go catch-up with my friend over a glass of wine. They had a lovely happy hour menu too. I can't speak for the food though but did find their menu creative. They have a patio and some board games too. I'll be back!

I would recommend Room for Friends to anyone and everyone. The owners are not only great bartenders but people you want to be friends with. All the wine options are phenomenal and the food is a must try. I highly recommend trying the homemade ranch. LOVE LOVE LOVE this place.

Heather and Michael, the owners, are the absolute best! Warm, friendly, and knowledgeable. We popped in for a night cap after dinner at Rocky Yama and appreciated how well priced the wines were. It's a chill indoor setting with a quaint outdoor patio. Support local in the Sante Fe arts district!

Hidden gem!!! What a find by my cousin. We spent a couple hours here sippin on wine, beer, and some snacks while teaching my 7 year old how to play Apples to Apples about a month ago. The owners are amazing and so knowledgeable. Fast forward to a couple days ago...we had my wife's 40th bday party there. They allowed us to bring our own food, decorate a bit, and reserved the back patio for us. If you're down to support small, local businesses... it doesn't get any better than this!

Looking for respite after a busy day in Denver, Room for Friends was a welcoming & delicious destination. Heather and Michael (owners) are very warm and accommodating with excellent recommendations tailored to our personal tastes. Sample sips of new wines ensured we would enjoy every glass. Not only did we find renewal but also enjoyed several delightful wines and snack bites. Super comfy interior designed by Michael and Heather themselves. They've poured their passion and souls into this place!

Joined a group of friends here before a play and we all had a great time. They have a great happy hour! Love that they offer a crudité with the best homemade ranch dressing. The service was above and beyond. We will definitely return.

Really cozy space to hang out. Approachable wine list. You can choose any of the wines on their list for a wine flight. They have comfy seating and board games. Menu is pretty limited so I wouldn't come hungry, but they do have good snacky options

This place is super cute. They are fairly new, and on a great spot on Santa Fe. Energy of this place was on point- great product, knowledge of wine-tenders was great, and they were incredibly friendly. I hope they are able to shift the interior a bit. The furniture sets seemed incohesive, more coffee shop than wine bar. Music played could use different genres too. Overall great experience.

casual and relaxing space with excellent wine and delicious snacks. great place to regroup and have fun following some ugly crying after dropping our son of at college. fun trivia night was a bonus too. Heather and her staff are great, and we look to coming back on future trips!

I love the laid back atmosphere and the ambiance of the place. Just a good place to for a fun date night or just to hang out and a great selection of wines. Service is awesome and overall just a fun place to get a drink and get some delicious cheez-its.

My friends and I met here for happy hour! The owners are so kind and welcoming, the atmosphere was inviting and comfortable for groups, and the happy hour deals were great. We had a chuckle about and then enjoyed the Cheez-It flight. The other food on the menu sounds great, as well. We are looking forward to going back!

The bartenders and owners were so kind and so sweet. The vibe is very peaceful. The food is absolutely amazing, for the price and small menu they have to offer they nailed it! We tried the chicken sliders, chickpea bruschetta, bacon- cheese spread crackers and and lemon pepper sausage bites were incredible! definitely check this place out 5 stars through and through.
