Description

One of Colfax's best dives, the P.S. Lounge feels like not a lot has changed in the past few decades -- at least as far as decor goes. The booths and carpet are a bit worn and a few tables are chipped, but that's part of its charm, as is the old wood paneling in the room where the pool table is. It's old-school without trying to be. Well, except for the jukebox, which is stocked with everything from classics to tunes from the '80s and beyond. The bar is just a few blocks from the Bluebird Theater, making it an ideal place for cheap and stiff drinks before or after a show. Just remember to bring cash: P.S. doesn't accept credit cards.

    PS Lounge

    I wanted to love PS Lounge (3416 East Colfax Avenue). Really, I did. I wanted to love the cash-only policy for its antediluvian charm. But when I returned from trekking down Colfax for cash and the bartendress wouldn't keep a simple drink tally... More »

    To say the PS Lounge is just a dive bar is like saying a limo is just a car, or a lion is just a cat. There's no question that the PS Lounge is a dive -- but the fact is, it might be Denver's greatest dive. It has everything a true dive needs: a... More »

  • 2012 | Best Dive Bar

    Like most dive bars in this town, the PS Lounge is a place we'd never want to see in the daylight; we're guessing the old sports paraphernalia and playbills lining the walls would look a lot more grimy and a lot less charming. But at night, the Lounge commands a special place in our dive-loving hearts. The place has its quirks: the cash-only establishment won't let you keep a running tab, for instance, and you'll have to walk down the street if you need an ATM. But Pete, the bar's owner,... More »

  • 2008 | Best Spot for Free Shots and a Rose for the Ladies

    With places proliferating where you can grab a decent drink at a decent price, the P.S. Lounge stands out because of its sweet extras. At some point during every evening here, each lady in your party will receive a single, sweet-smelling rose. But the free benefits extend to men, too. Every patron, whether male or female, also gets a complimentary bright-pink shot. (Rumor has it the key ingredient is Tampico punch.) So drink up, ladies and gents. More »

  • 2000 | Best way to kill time before a show at the Bluebird

    At first glance, you might not figure this smallish tavern as the place to glean some knowledge of U.S. history. But request a light from one of the friendly staff behind the parquet bar and -- voilà! -- you're presented with a matchbook biography of JFK, LBJ or even Herbert Hoover. Yet presidential trivia isn't the only thing to keep you busy while you wait for the box office at the Bluebird Theater -- located just across Colfax -- to open. This cash-only, no-tabs-please bar serves... More »
