TJ’s

Walked in during the Nuggets vs Timberwolves game. It was busy. No hostess that we could find so we sat ourselves on the patio. We had a server almost immediately. Ordered two beers and pickle chips to start. HUGE basket of perfectly round, large pickle chips. Interestingly, they sprinkle a little sugar on them. They came with a side of spicy ranch. We asked if from a bag or made in house. It was the latter, the server saw him making them shortly before we ordered. Yummy! We shared a burger with cheddar, sautéed onions and bacon. It's a huge burger with all the topping: lettuce, tomato and mayo. Pretty darn good burger. We got tator tots and spicy ranch for the side. Watching the game was fun. Food excellent. Great neighborhood place. Go here.

I LOVE this bar. The staff is fantastic and the atmosphere is even better. You've got everything here from the older crowd to the MC that hangs here but is always cool as hell to have a drink with and talk to. This place is the classic neighborhood spot to come get slammed at and meet some Lakewood locals.

The food is great. The presentation is original. Service is hit or miss depending on the staff working. There is a group that likes to gossip at the end of the bar, and you can get thirsty waiting for a refill. Be prepared to pay your tab at shift change. They do have fun Music Bingo on Tuesdays and Trivia on Wednesdays.

This wasn't my favorite place. The beer is cold, the building is clean and the food is solid for bar type food. My issue is the service. It's clear this place caters to a "regular" clientele and new faces are not especially catered to. On two occasions now, I've gone in, found a table and sat down. Absolutely nobody talks to me, asks me what I want to drink nor even acknowledges me. If I want something, I go to the bar and order it. Aside from that, I am basically ignored. I see people interacting with the bartenders and having a great time. I, however, feel like a complete outsider and a "bother". If you are part of the in crowd, I'm sure this place is awesome. If you are not in that crowd, be prepared to make the first move on everything. The last time I was there, I simply got up and left after 15 minutes and nobody noticed when I came in or left. It's kind of a crappy feeling.

This is a nice bar, with great atmosphere. The patio is big, lighted and comfortable. The service was not bad. The food was delicious: beef chimichanga, Philly cheese steak sandwich and buffalo wings. This restaurant is in our neighborhood, will be back.

Tj's has an excellent happy hour with wells for $2.50. These days that's practically unheard of. I've sampled a few things on their menu. Get the mozzarella sticks, they are nothing short of amazing. Wings are good and the burgers are good. Service can be hit or miss, especially with some of the younger girls who will give you premium alcohol if you don't specify you want a well cocktail. Then you don't figure out until you get the check and it's $6 more per drink than it should have been. Other than that, no complaints. They do trivia on Wednesday's and that's always fun.

Favorite food and drink spot in Lakewood. Bartenders are super cool and very on top of it. Food is reasonably priced, extremely delicious, and comes out quickly. There is a reason this place is considered the unofficial hangout spot for the people of Lakewood. 10/10 wouldn't change a thing.

I was there a few weeks ago and it was great. The new owner did a 100 percent turn around. Food and service were both great. Great place to hang out with friends and have some good food and drinks.

TJ's bar and Grill has the worst customer service i've ever received the employees were rude. I waited 15 minutes to get my first beer granted there was a sports game going on and then went outside to have a waitress comes up and says I hope you're not leaving without paying a tab I'm like no I'm putting my stuff down and going to have a cigarette. I'll be back and she replies, can you leave something on the table so we know you're coming back? I asked her what do you want me to leave you leave your phone I'm like you want me to leave my $800 phone on a table in this busy bar you people to make sure it doesn't get stolen yeah right

Ever since they opened this is by far my favorite sports bar to come to. The food is amazing and not like regular bar food, the servers are fast and friendly, and the drinks are a great price and bomb! Definitely come in to try this place and their queso is to die for!!
