Occidental

We ate and had drinks here. The food was way more than you would think for bar food so totally worth it. Dom and jimmy were our servers and bartenders. By far the best service I ever had ever. It was a very nj vibe which I loved. Always had my water refilled without even asking. I was there when it wasn't so busy but it is a hidden gold mine. I will be going here every time I am in Denver mainly because of jimmy our bartender. Even gave us a special ice cube that was carved specially for us. Absolutely incredible.

We stumbled across this bar when trying to get into a nearby distillery. Couldn't have found a better place for my husband who is a North Jersey kid and huge Giants fan. The atmosphere was packed but a blast. Bartenders kept the drinks flowing even though they were slammed! We had a great time and plan to come watch a Giants game next football season. We are from the Springs and wish we could come more!

Finally got the chance to try this place on Thursday. I live so close by but I've been lowkey intimidated by the noisy and rough exterior. The servers could not be nicer and the chicken tenders are fire. LoHi needs a "grungier" bar like this. We tried the Nashville hot chicken and the hot honey BBQ. Both great accompanied by a large portion of tots. The chicken alone is enough to fill you up if you aren't super hungry so take that into account before you order. Both orders were breaded and cooked to perfection (at least for a bar). This isn't your run in the mill bar chicken tenders, it's worth making the stop for a casual dinner.

Cool bar for a casual night out or to catch a game. Being from NJ it's awesome to find a home turf for NY/NJ sports teams. Occidental is the more casual "sibling" of Williams and Graham next door (which reminds me, I still have to review them because they are AWESOME), but I digress.... Love the edgy, no fuss ambiance of Occidental and they serve up some tasty food and drinks. The chicken tenders are fire and the tots are perfectly crunchy and delicious.

Oh hell yes! Drinks, ambience and overall experience. Great punk bar with clean bathrooms. And not on Broadway!

Me and my dad Henry came in because we needed BURGERS for survival. It was quite a sight. We ate em up real good and real nice. But boy I'll tell ya, it was quite the spectacle. We were feeling like brand new after a few bites and suddenly we were approached by 2 women. One of them was like hey you have nice skin, and she was married, I think? The other explained to us how shitty her ex was, well you know how it goes. Well after we stopped chewing our last bites of our BACON BORGERS, there were back rubs and.. yeah the food was great ill be back, thanks.

I wish I could give this place a good review. The main bartender (wearing a guido tank top and a 15 year olds fohawk) yelled at my group of friends for being "too loud" while loud punk music was playing. Only a man of lesser intelligence would yell at a group of mainly women to be quieter at a loud punk bar. My recommendation - the bartenders need therapy to better understand that just because you have a small package, it doesn't warrant you to yell at paying customers the moment they walk in.

Bouncer was really rude and asked me to get out of the walkway when there was so many people blocking everyone else :/ I probably was the shortest person in the group but apparently so in the way of the staff. Really awful and unfair treatment would never recommend this bar spent so much money on drinks and me and my group of 16 friends will never come back :)

Great vibe, G-Men all day! Wings were decent size, I'm impressed with them. Could use more flavors for the wings though.

Just moved to the area and loved this was a punk bar that supported New York teams. Unfortunately, while waiting for our drinks, in our exuberance and in an effort to talk over the loud music (with friends who are hard of hearing) the bartender thought scolding us in front of the whole bar was the best way to handle our excitement. Considering the sour looks we were getting from some of the other patrons (looking at you lady in the white shirt) and the 15 minutes it took to get us three drinks (one of which was a beer) we decided to take our business to where it would be welcome (thank you Zuni St). If you're looking for a punk or dive bar, look elsewhere. If you're easily stressed by loud unexpected noises, please take your bartending skills to a nursing home or library. Or maybe take the stick out of your where the sun do not shine. Gg Allin is working with more than this guy
