A kind of petri dish for the local-music scene, Herman's Hideaway opens its stage to bands in their gestation period as well as more accomplished acts that draw well on weekend nights. An open room with minimal adornment, Herman's feels a bit like a big basement where young players come together to perform for friends, especially during the weekly New Talent Showcase.

I went here for my 21st birthday, well first, and I had a great time. I got to watch the live band and kick it in a reserved section for me. I know a bartendar and a waitress that work there and got great service and since it was my 21st all of my drinks were free. Oh the joys of knowing someone.

The Legendary Herman's Hideaway Denver's premier venue to see amazing local music! Some compare Herman's to LA's Whisky A Go Go--it is the most legendary spot in Denver to see live music and Wednesday through Saturday you are guaranteed to see amazing talent!
