Highland Tavern

Next level pub food, decent draft beer selection, excellent space with a chill neighborhood vibe, and super friendly and efficient service. Its a hike outside of downtown to get here but we give the burgers, tots and churros.

Decided to stop by here for lunch and try some of the special dishes Guy Fieri raved about when he visited for Diners, Drive-in's and Dives. The scratch-made pork rinds came out crackling and had a citrus blend of lime chili salt. We went off Guy's suggestions and went with the K-town Rib Tips. Be prepared for your mouth to be on fire. The BBQ sauce is delicious but the pickled veggies pack all the heat. Finished off with a small serving of Tavern Tots since that is what Highland Tavern is known for and they did not disappoint. Crispy, light breading surrounding tasty shredded potatoes. Food prices are a steal! ($23 for our 3 items). Service is friendly and I appreciate the eclectic decor.

We really enjoyed Highland Tavern. That's a strong 4 star rating with no complaints. The service was solid and atmosphere was what you expect a local bar to be. We went because we saw it on Triple D and had to try the tots! They are excellent and it's quite a lot or Tots. The beers were good and my wife enjoy the Pastrami which ended up as 2 meals. Worthy stotp!!

Came here for the wings. Stayed for the company. This is a great slightly divey neighborhood bar which locals seem to frequent. They have a good amount of tvs to watch sports. The beer selection was great with almost all Colorado breweries featured. We ordered the effing hot confit chicken wings which were crispy just how I like them. The sauce was like similar to a jerk sauce with slightly sweetness and good spice level probably from habanero. The homemade ranch and blue cheese were equally delicious. Just beware the kitchen closes at 9 pm. Renfro the bartender was very friendly and provided good service. We are new to the city and he gave us great recommendations. I'm looking forward to coming back and trying more of the food options!

I always say that Denver does not have enough sports bars or bars with TVs to watch a game. Highland tavern has plenty of TVs and pretty good bar food to boot. The staff is very accommodating to larger groups and even allowed us to split up checks. I tried the El Guapo burger with a veggie patty. The pickled red onions and green chile on top made for a tasty burger. The veggie patty was decent-- a bit thin and dry. The famous tater tots did not disappoint. They were crispy on the outside with an almost creamy, soft inside. Check out Highland Tavern for sports, tots, and a great view of the Denver skyline.

Great little tavern. Came for drinks and football and was surrounded by TVs and excellent service! Will definitely make it back!!

Great spot for when you're in the mood for good bar food. The staff was nice and all the food comes fast and fresh. The fresh pork rinds were amazing. The tavern dip was a cool combination of a French dip and a pastrami sandwich!We're not from Denver so we also appreciated the local beers to try.

Great meeting place with old friends. Well established and worthy of a repeated visit. Great menu options. and drink options

We picked this restaurant because my husband saw it on Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives. We were not disappointed.

This amazing food is well worth the stop! best homemade pork rinds and Tator tots are TO DIE FOR! You will not be regret this..
