Despite the "gastropub" label, Argyll is a nice, comfortable basement restaurant that also happens to pour a nice glass of whiskey and pull a fine pint of Murphy's. But alcoholic amusements aside, the real draw at Robert Thompson's place is the food, thanks to the kitchen being run by chef Sergio Romero. These guys are masters of the subtle twist -- turning fairly standard, pub-ish comfort foods (Scotch eggs and chips and the like) into true masterworks, then bringing that same skill to bear on more upscale plates as well. Don't miss anything that has a sauce as an integral component, and be sure to save enough digestive real estate for at least two baskets of the pub chips with malt vinegar gastrique. They may just be the best potato chips you've ever had.

Denver chefs are going to have to do more — much more — than toss a few slices of prosciutto on a platter with a fistful of olives if they're going to go nose-to-tail with Sergio Romero, the executive chef of Argyll. Romero's charcuterie program... More >

In the great gastropub movement that's marching through Denver, Argyll is doing its part to ensure that its contributions to the crusade don't go unnoticed. There's an awful lot to appreciate about this joint: the cask-conditioned ales, wickedly... More >

We went to Argyll and had a mixed bag some of the items were fantastic while others were just ok. That seemed to be a theme for the night one item would be something you would remember for days the next would be something you forgot 2 minutes after you ate it. However all in all there were more highs than lows and when they got it right it was just fantastic. I would defiantly give them a try and if you would like to see a full review with pictures feel free to visit out blog at www.milehigheater.com

Amazing menu, but more of a restaurant than a bar. Very small bar, but very nice and good looking bartenders. Just not really a "bar" scene...
