Punch Bowl Social - Denver

I was greeted immediately after entering in everybody was very polite Frank my server who took my order was very knowledgeable and friendly helped me pick the right item. While waiting Kristey the bartender was very friendly greeted me and asked if I needed any assistance at the end moomal the host made sure I got my order and that it was right made sure I had extra napkins and everything very friendly very helpful. The food I got was the Bison chili fries they were amazing the only thing they could have did better was put more chili on them overall great food and great atmosphere check them out awesome they also have a lot of stuff like games for families and friends it's a great place to enjoy a celebration

We've been probably four or five times to this location over the last years, and it's always a blast. We went again last night, and we had a great time. The food is really good. The atmosphere is really fun; there are so many things to do. The drinks are fantastic. It's a great place to spend time and have some fun.

This was my second time here, and it was just as fun as the first time! We had a party of 9 for a bachelor party and they were able to get us seated. The staff were all extremely friendly, food and drinks were great, and we all had a blast! I will definitely be back!

Such a cool space! I went with some friends for brunch, and though the menu is small, everything we got was delicious! I got the avocado and cucumber sandwich with chips on the side. I dipped the chips in their, come back sauce, their signature house sauce, and it was amazing! As I walk to the restroom, I walked past their other bar area, the bowling alley a little fireplace of Jenga in front of it and more. I went on a Friday afternoon and it was relatively empty. However, I can imagine how on a Friday or Saturday night it probably gets pretty packed.

Last minute decision to come here on Friday night. Glad we came. Very spacious with plenty of places to sit. Our server was awesome and very attentive. I was impressed with the quality and taste of the food at The Punch Bowl. Not your average bar fare. Even the healthy choices were incredible. A tip of the hat to the chefs.

This was the highlight of my trip to Denver. The staff was prompt, and the food was good. I will definitely attend the chicago location on a less busy day to play the games.

This was a fly by the seat of our pants decision as we flew into Denver late, and wanted something different that you could get a drink and had a full restaurant. So we see this place and it has kind of a Dave & Busters vibe with plenty of off street parking so we decided to give it a try. It was a good choice Natasha was our waitress and she was great. She not only helped us pick what we had for dinner but suggested the specific sulpur springs resort we are headed to today in the mountains. Drinks were excellent and they had several holiday themed ones. Food was great. We had chili cheese fries with bison chili thick and robust but not too spicy. Fresh queso fresh crème fresh very thinly sliced jalapeño and the fries were on point. We got chicken waffles pretty standard the only point to bring up is the syrup had a whiskey Smokey taste to it. Not bad but worth knowing in case it’s not your thing. Had a patty melt that was really good and came with an amazing thousand island dressing on the side. My only suggestion is to move the dining table that is close to the see how hard you can punch machine away from said machine. Nothing crazy if it’s just a couple of people but this place has booking of big parties. What if all the people wanted to punch the punching machine. The people eating at that table would be surrounded. O! Plus there was a great little birthday cake since it was one of our birthdays. 10/10 would recommend and they have a bowling alley fyi

We had come to drink. We wanted to try one of their bowls. So we started with Steal my Sunshine punch. It was devine. Two of us tried their bowl for 4. I highly recommend starting there!

Went here with our young son for dinner and it was great. Yes it’s a bar but very family friendly before 10 PM. Blueberry beignets were so good!! Also loved the upgraded rosemary fries

Busy but never felt crowded for how many people were there. Had a reservation for 9, sat no problem. Food and drinks arrived fast. Food was great. Ordered a French press coffee with dinner (sloppy joe) so I could keep up with the rest of the group. Came in a lovely Le Creuset French press. Attentive employees let me know when to plunge it. Very good coffee too! Then we bowled. Decent prices and comfy shoes. Lots to explore and reason to come back!

Have always enjoyed having fun nights with friends at Punch Bowl, but my wife and I went for a late night dinner date and enjoyed all of the food we got. The nachos were tasty and relatively healthy, and the salmon was delicious. Felt nice to get a quality late night meal we didn't feel too guilty about. We'll come back.

Great place for all ages to mingle and have fun...food was awesome and the staff were great as well...one of my new favorite spots...

Had a blast here last night! Met up with a big group to play DnD and eat. The staff were super accommodating and welcoming. Food was delicious and well priced. Will definitely be coming back.

Sky took such great care of our large party! Super on top of it and really attentive even though we were kind of all over the place after a long day of work. Great food, great drinks, great music, great service. I’ll definitely be coming back!

Only one word for that service — Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious . S/O to Skyler, s/o to the girl at the games booth between 3:30-5:00, s/o to my bartender and the lady who ran my food! ( both young pretty mixed women, want to describe them bc they deserved credit for the service)! There was a gentleman too, he was so nice, he had ginger hair features. Service was phenomenal, happy food and drinks were excellent, I am very pleased and will be back ASAP

We celebrated noon years eve here with some friends and our three kids. It was a blast. The staff were so helpful and friendly. They really made new years fun for the kids. I’m hoping to do this again next year!

Punch Bowl Social was great, but let’s be honest — Madi behind the bar is the whole reason this review is five stars. She wasn’t just a bartender, she was the main event. From the moment we sat down, she brought the perfect mix of energy, personality, and skill. She remembered names, made everyone at the bar feel welcome, and had drink recommendations that were dangerously good. Even with a full bar and nonstop orders, she stayed dialed-in, friendly, and genuinely fun — like she actually enjoyed being there and wanted everyone else to enjoy it too. That kind of service is rare.

Not a dave and busters, but an ok spot. Limited selection of bowling balls. When game got stock they did not add any of the time that was lost. A lot of the arcade games were glitchy. Mortal kombat controllers would not engage half the time, the air hockey was out of order. Drinks looked good, staff were friendly and welcoming,and the vibe was great. otherwise it's a solid 3 star place.

Really a 3.75/5, the food was very good but the all around service was bad, maybe we came on an off day or something. I enjoyed chicken and waffles that came with chives and strawberries, just know they use thigh meat so it is a bit more fatty. My partner in crime got avo toast and that was also super good. We had quite a but of issues with our drinks and begrudgingly the manager agreed to remove some from the ticket. I did feel bad for our server as it was his birthday and he was in the fritzes, but there was a girl working there running food who was insanely rude to us over something that wasn’t our fault. Not sure I will come back anytime soon but never say never, maybe the place will be in less disarray next time.

Honestly the wait time was a bit long, and the server took forever to come to our table after we were done eating for the check. The food was good, but the tacos were pretty bad. Overall, the atmosphere was still pretty great, I'd recommend this place for someone going to have a good time with activities but not for the good and service.

Had a little dinner and fun.. super yummy chicken and waffles, tasty falafel, shrimp street tacos!! Washed it all down with their yummy (non-alcohol) blueberry lemonade fizz!! Then it was on to sign up for karaoke and play games till our music room was prepared (lil more than an hour) Karaoke was tons of fun (once we fixed the sound) the only hiccup of the night was a slight understanding and the manager did way more than he needed to to correct the error (which we don't believe was human error) once that was all taken care of...the rest of the night was a breeze!!! I want to add this was my first visit ever to this establishment ans I will definitely be back!

The Reuben was awesome, and I enjoyed the horchata cocktail. The waiters came by a little too often, not a big deal. The darts were closed due to a private event and all other table games were unavailable with no time limit, so you wouldn’t know when they’d become available. Also, there is only one table for each game. We decided to try the arcade games which we had to buy a card for, and some were broken and stole our credits.

The steak frites was 🔥 and I would definitely order it again, and my boyfriend really liked the BBQ sliders. Of all the games, we liked the 4 people foosball table the best.

The atmosphere was fun, though it's likely that a lit of the activities will be reserved for private events. We had some good (weakish) drinks, good food (hearty portions), and fun times. As the night wore on, the crowd got younger and louder.

Great place for us to eat with our family! The staff was very kind and helpful as this was our first time here. Big place with good food. We really liked the queso dip and rosemary and parm fries!! My husband and I got chicken and carnitas tacos. His tacos were better then mine because the of the seasonings and Chipotle sauce that came with it along with the corn tortillas. I liked my chicken tacos but they were a bit dry, nothing lime juice and some of the Chipotle sauce didn't fix!:) my daughters fried chicken, potatoes and green beans were soo good!! The seasoning on her fried chicken was delicious! To the point we were going to order another to take home lol!! My son's quesadilla was ok, the chicken wasn't seasoned at all, but we chalk that up too it's for kids so they probably didn't want to overwhelm a childs pallet or due to allergies. It was ok and he ate it just fine. Staff was great, place was clean with a great have a time good time vibe!! We will be back!:)

The tacos were really good. And quite a unique presentation. The side beans were just so so.. The place has charm and is chiq. Had a little interaction with the bouncer and it was nice, pleasant conversation about kids after 10pm. Probably the nicest employee in the place. Most of the staff was pretentious and chill.

Bowling is super overpriced, most servers were annoyed by my questions or me asking them to fill up my water bottle. Its fun, and appreciate the atmosphere but the looks from the staff were unpleasant and uninviting so be prepared for that if you go.

Fun atmosphere, good food, good drinks - big place, plenty of room for groups of any size!

Had a great time at Punch Bowl Social! The food was really good, and the service was excellent — friendly and attentive staff all around. The live music was a bit loud, but it added to the fun, energetic atmosphere. Tons of things to do like bowling, darts, and plenty of drinks to choose from. Perfect spot for a night out with friends.

We spent a few hours between the restaurant, bowling and darts and almost every time had to hunt down our waitress (we had 3 different waitresses). They made mistakes on 2 orders, rarely checked in on our table and acted as if we were an annoyance when we finally tracked them down. The cocktails were decent and the burgers were good, but the service was slow and more importantly, not helpful (hostess excluded - she was great). If you need to kill some time and love ping pong, bowling, darts, etc...then consider stopping by. Just expect slow and unfriendly service.

A lively atmosphere. Food is reasonably good. Prices for bowling are $14/hour/person after 3pm. Shoes are included at no extra charge. I feel like they should have some more arcade game options. There is a large parking lot that offers free parking. Drink selection is reasonable, but not as large as some other establishments. Lots of 20-somethings here (not as condusive to a family). Lots of profanity being used by some patrons.

Mothers Day social. The food was SUB-PAR! The waffles were dry, & the steak & potatoes were completely tasteless! Definitely more bar than restaurant. The music was very loud, & your choice of water was sparkling, bottled, or tap, in a mason jar, no ice. Our server was pleasant, but she left us alone for over an hour. My husband & son hadn't had their food even then. She comped their orders.

We were here for a company holiday party this weekend. My son and I didn’t know anyone, so we were focused on enjoying all there is to do. The darts and games were very fun. (Although the punching bag seriously needs to be pushed back out of the pathway of the restrooms. People kept walking in front of us right before we’d swing, and I’m so glad we’d noticed before socking anyone.) We’re gf and the food bar the company had selected had no gf offerings, so we picked the patties out of the sliders, but despite arriving on time and eating right away, the food was cold. The patties alone were tasteless. I didn’t even touch the second one I had selected. I tried a mango sangria margarita, but the alcohol in it was so minimal yet cheap I got heartburn and a headache right away even though I drank it over the course of thirty minutes. My son and I tried the honey berry spritzer things instead. They were delicious and we had two each. The service was amazing. At least two very sweet and attentive waitresses. The noise level was ok too. Loud but you could still easily talk, which is really nice when you’re already dealing with awkwardly meeting a group of new people. Sadly though we left overall thinking we were glad we didn’t pay for this and don’t intend to return.

Nice spot with good games. Food pretty good, but service was terrible. I had to grab my own utensils, drinks, everything. Staff never came to table; bar staff was a little socially awkward or maybe “edgy” is the word.

Last Saturday went to punch bowl to watch the football game, unfortunately they didn't play the sound. We ordered brunch, the breakfast burrito. It was pretty good until we ate large cloves of garlic. We actually had to start going through the burrito to single them out. Now, we love garlic, but full on cloves are way too much! Good service, good atmosphere. We did leave shortly after to find a sports bar. :)

Great place for a date night and social activity. I wasn't crazy about the food. The chicken wings were very dry and tough. We placed an order and it took over an hour to get because they forgot about it. When we did get it, the chicken wasn't great. The Espresso Martinis are great, and the they had a live rock band playing 90s hit songs, which was pretty cool. Overall, great experience outside of the issue with the food.

Went for trivia night, and it was the worst experience ever. Speaker system didn't work, microphone was broken, MC took extended breaks between questions making a 1.5 hour game last 3 hours. Had to try 5 stools to get one that didnt rock due to feet missing. And the bathrooms! Why doesn't management understand that the combination urine and sour mop is not a clean smell.

To begin when we were seated at a table there was a candy land board game at our booth (we were three adults). That was extremely wired. Second the “glass water jars” at the table were disgusting with clear signs of a previous drink/owner. With a clear sign of a full white rim line near the top of the jar. Third , the timing to get our full order out to our table was dreadful. We waited over 20 minutes after two of the tree plates were deliver to receive the third plate. This is super inconvenient usually all the food arrives together if so separate within a couple minutes apart not over 20 mins. I was extremely upset because I never eat till everyone at my table is served. By the time the last dish arrived my food was cooled and who likes to eat cooled food? I have in the past came to this location and had a great experience. But this time around it seems like the quality of service and cleanliness has dropped. I would recommend this place in the past to everyone but now I will definitely stop doing that.

I came to this restaurant with a group of friends for a birthday celebration. We’re all from MS, just here to eat and bowl. First they couldn’t seat us all at one table so we had to split our party into two separate tables. Then as I’m in the middle of eating, 3 guys walk up checking ID’s saying that if we weren’t 21 and over we had to leave at 10. I couldn’t even finish my food! I called my husband from his table to take me 20min back to the Airbnb to get my id (even though I wasn’t drinking). He couldn’t finish his food either. We got the id, brought it back, showed it to the guy at the front door to get back in, got stamped and started bowling with friends. The manager sent ANOTHER security over to check my ID again!! Talk about embarrassing!! Crazy part is, I found the manager once we got back inside and asked him why they couldn’t take my MS ID app and he said it’s because they couldn’t use it in Colorado which was fine. But the last thing I said to him was “Well good thing I have my ID now” Not sure why he sent extra security to recheck my id after I had shown it to re-enter. And I was stamped!!! He embarrassed me in front of the entire party. Ruined my entire mood! Couldn’t finish my food, my husband couldn’t finish his food…. Their communication is trash! Do better!!

I was very disappointed with our visit. We specifically booked a table inside the restaurant, but we were seated right by the walkway where it was extremely noisy and uncomfortable. We were given a limited one-page menu instead of the full restaurant menu. Unfortunately, the food was also very disappointing. Overall, it was not a pleasant experience.
