Terminal Bar

We visited Denver in May 2025. Lucky for us, our hotel room wasn’t ready (Crawford Hotel) but Terminal Bar was. We grabbed a couple drinks and a bite to eat at the bar. We ordered a few local beers and the crispy potatoes, all delicious. Then we started chatting with Heather, the bartender, we totally adored her. She was fun and helpful, going above and beyond by creating a perfect itinerary for our first visit to Denver. Her recommendations changed our trip for the better. We were glad our room wasn’t ready, this ended up being the perfect place to stop by at the beginning of our weekend trip so we closed out our trip there on Sunday, too. Cheers Terminal - great place, fun times!🍻 Pros n cons: Fantastic location: Located inside Union Station. The whole area was filled with a buzzy vibe that spilled into Terminal as well. Great design: Loved the decor - moody and dark‘ish. Wonderful staff: The people behind the bar were delightful, welcoming and easy to talk to. Deep drink selection: Lots of local beers and fun cocktails. Con: Be prepared for Terminal to add 8% to every check - in addition to your standard 20% tip. 3% goes to “ Union Station Historic Preservation Fee” and an additional 5% “that ensures our hard-working, non-tipped employees also earn a living wage”.

This is a great bar in the Denver Union station. Great atmosphere, majestic building architecture and the ambience. Very well maintained and a good choice of draft beers and other drinks. Food choice is also excellent.

Terminal Bar in Denver Union Station is a hidden gem. It is in the historic Denver train station, which has been expertly restored. The Terminal Bar is absolutely the best eatery and source for libations in the terminal. The staff at the Terminal Bar are friendly, helpful and attentive. The bartenders are craftsmen in their field. The dining area is clean and well-maintained. The food is extremely delicious. I definitely recommend Union Station Terminal Bar.

Cocktails were good and the building itself is cool but expected it to be livelier in the evening. Most of the businesses were closed except for the Terminal Bar which ended up being a nice place for a quiet drink.

Terminal Bar in #Denver Union Station. Queso con Chorizo: chihuahua cheese, white american cheese, pueblo chiles, chimichurri, served with tortilla chips and salsa verde. Delicious. #Pozole Verde with roasted poblano pepper, chicken & hominy, garnished with crema, cabbage, and lime. Excellent. Atmosphere top notch. Staff friendly. A great experience.

I was part of a group that had some drinks and light appetizers. This is a nice place to hang out once I asked them to turn the music down in the speaker that was right next to my head. 😅 The food was decent, and the people with me enjoyed their drinks. I'd say the only real problem with this place is the fact that the washroom is on the other side of the building, there's only one (a single person room), and the door has a code. So it's not exactly the easiest thing.

My husband and I bailed on Snooze after seeing the menu at Terminal Bar and we made the right choice! The food is out of this world delicious and this is coming from a very picky eater: lol I had the Quesabirria taco and a cup of Pozole Verde soup and he had the green chili burger and fries and they were all so good. The cocktails were fresh and delicious as well. The staff was very attentive and quick and it was so nice and quiet in here. 10/10

The staff is great, but the shrimp tacos are more like "one shrimp on three tacos". Just sharing a heads up for any incoming shrimp taco fans. The guac is delicious, but also small portions. Never enough guacamole for the chips even if you do a slight garish lol. Updating to advance my review on the atmosphere portion bc they play reality shows on dark game days instead of game recaps, and that drives the ladies and gaybies their way! The staff is great as always!
