B&GC - Denver, Colorado

My wife found this hidden speakeasy style bar. It can be difficult to get a reservation but I promise it'll be worth it. It's a small cozy place with limited seating (hence the reservation requirement I assume). It's a true speakeasy style cozy bar where you go through some office basement hallways to get to the venue.

We had several drinks and snacks ( oysters and pretzels) both dishes were delicious. The staff was very friendly and extremely knowledgeable about the drinks they offered. All the drinks we ordered came promptly and we're fantastic.

It's a great place to bring a date, out of town guests etc. It's probably not suitable for large groups but perfect for small intimate get-togethers.

I highly recommend this place and perfect start in my effort to visit all speakeasies in Denver.

I visited B&GC on my first night in Denver, and from the moment I arrived, Nina made me feel incredibly welcomed. As the hostess, she set the tone for an amazing evening with her warm hospitality and genuine kindness. Her attentiveness made me feel right at home, which was especially appreciated as a solo guest.

The rest of the team was just as fantastic—knowledgeable, friendly, and eager to recommend some of the best cocktails I’ve ever had. Shoutout to the bartender that made me “sweet and fruity” cocktail requests, and spoke to me in Spanish!
Each drink was expertly crafted, perfectly balanced, and an experience in itself. She made them perfectly to my requests and they were nothing but incredible. The intimate, speakeasy vibe combined with such outstanding service made for a truly memorable night. Plus there’s a cute book they give you where you can leave your permanent mark!

B&GC is a must-visit for anyone looking for top-tier cocktails and exceptional hospitality. I’ll definitely be back!

After long debate in my mind for a date night, I remembered that I had found this place a while back for a future date night. I'm so glad that I remembered this spot, our bartender Maria was amazing, curating drinks based off of our preference of spirit and flavor, wowing us with her own personal spin on our favorites. Bacon wrapped dates cleansed our palates as we sipped on Maria's special potions, definitely hit the spot. It's no wonder that this gem is hidden away, as all great things should be, only to be found by the adventurous and investigative people in Denvers vicinity. Don't tell just anyone about it, like you found the cheat code to life, only share with those that are worthy of such an amazing atmosphere. B&GC has placed itself among the greats as a wonderful hideaway filled with magic, sure to display the love you have for your significant other.

OK after seeing so many different videos on different platforms, I decided to go. You do have to make reservations in advance. You will have a time slot. But they have food and nobody talks about the food. It was delicious. They also changed up their menu. I did the dealers choice and I videoed him telling what I was in it. It was fantastic. It’s a must go to you if you are in the Cherry Creek area for a different vibe than normal. The staff was all very friendly loved it. It’s definitely a little small area, but they packed it with plenty of choices. The burger was fantastic. The Mushrooms were also a very good choice. I would do both of them again.

I have been here twice, both times for my anniversary and I have to say I wasn’t just unimpressed but disappointed. Both times I set up our reservation a week in advance only to be told at the door that the people before us are going way over their time but we are the ones that need to wait. The first time, we were seated at some gross almost on the floor seating and it wasn’t until almost an hour in we were seated at a real table. This time, I explained my experience to the hostess and we were seated within 5 mins. I’m not going to lie but I had to ask for new seating. They sat us next to a group of extremely loud and extremely drunk people who were actually yelling and bumping into us. It was so bad, I asked the waitress to move just a bit but she said there’s a reservation for that table coming soon but she apologizes for the noise of the group next to us. Note, when I set up this reservation I specially told them my experience from before as well as the fact that this was for our anniversary and engagement. Despite these mentions, no accommodations were made and honestly we felt more rushed to leave compared to groups that were handed their check eons ago. The food was good, the drinks were great but the vibes were just not there. If you’re looking for a quiet intimate vibe and feel, I can’t recommend this place in good conscience. This really feels like any normal bar with extra steps

From the moment we walked in, Nina was phenomenal! She greeted us with such warmth and immediately walked us through what to expect, how the entire experience would unfold, and even gave us the names of our servers and bartenders—such a thoughtful touch. Once inside, we were respectfully and kindly approached, and given the opportunity to share exactly what we were looking for in our beverages. Not only did the team deliver—they exceeded every expectation. The service, the attention to detail, the overall vibe—everything was spot on. Nina and the staff made this an unforgettable experience!

What a hidden gem! From the moment you walk in everyone treated me with hospitality. They make you feel like a very honored guest. Mario was my bartender. He was courteous and professional. He was extremely knowledgeable about the spirits. I enjoyed my time and cannot wait to go back. When you make the reservation it states that the gratuity is added, but Mario was so great you want to tip more.

This place has nice atmosphere although it was a lot smaller than I expected, 8 small tables in close proximity to each other and the lighting was a little too dim, almost dark. The food was good it’s made in the kitchen of the hotel which this bar is attached to so it’s about as good as you’d expect nothing crazy. The service was great and Maria was very welcoming and she made some amazing mixed drinks although my biggest problem with my experience by far was the pricing of the drinks. I can understand charging $20 for a specialty cocktail however, charging $16 for a single shot of Tito’s, not even a double, is complete robbery. A whole bottle of Tito’s costs $18, so $16 for a single shot of this mid-shelf vodka is absurdity and due to this we will not be patronizing this business again.
