Inga's Alpine Tavern

“I love trivia and have tried different bars and different types of trivia, in my view, Ingas has the best. Trivia is every Wednesday night. Nick is such a fun host and I have seen him here on other nights as well, that is a good sign that he likes it here. There is such a cool community for trivia but if you are a newcomer or just playing on your own, still super fun. Another plus is that if you win you can use yout winning gift card for your tab the same night. Some bars do not allow for this which is a pain if you are not playing at your local watering hole. I think they have drink specials but I usually just have a couple draft beers. The food is tasty and you can play trivia on the patio too, however it seema they have a regular volleyball team on Wednesday nights so I recommend inside if you want to play.”

“Stopped in last night, service was impeccable (Peter I think) food was delicious and an overall good time. I had the chicken tostadas, they were perfect. This was late night, what a cool spot and so thankful that the kitchen was still open. Not many places serve food this good, this late.”

“Restaurant modeled after a ski chalet. Varied menu including burgers. The black and bleu was good except the menu described it as having sautéed onions and it included a large slice of raw red onion instead. The fries were good, but there were a lot of them. The best thing was the Basque cheesecake for dessert. Service was fast and friendly. The space itself was rather dark especially coming in on a sunny day. They do have a patio to dine outside in good weather. Several TVs were showing mostly sports. They do have password protected Wi-Fi available for customers. Parking was plentiful on a weekday afternoon, but can be problematic during peak hours.”

“My group of friends and I have been meeting up here for years, every several months when we're all in town. We like going here because of its central location to where we live and not having to hassle with parking. It's a great watering hole for all seasons. During the summer, we enjoy the spacious patio. During the winter, we slide into a cozy booth. The service is always friendly. The food is always good for shared appetizers in our little group. For an early evening gathering, it's a perfect little spot to congregate for conversation.”

“This place was so mediocre and disappointing that I would not recommend this to anyone who values their time or money. After finding a table outside on the patio we waited for over 20 minutes without any employee coming by to ask for our drinks, order food, or literally anything. We had to go up to the bar where we waited another few minutes for anyone to acknowledge our presence there before we finally ordered food. We ordered a pastrami sandwich with fries for $16 and a Caesar salad for $11 then had to wait almost 45 minutes for it to arrive. We were given no silverware whatsoever and I had to go get a fork myself after an employee said they would bring one but never returned. The food is somewhere between mediocre at best and just plain bad. The pastrami sandwich was super soggy and bland then the salad was genuinely one of the most disappointing salads I've ever seen served at a restaurant. I could have gone to the grocery store and made a larger, higher quality, and way cheaper Caesar salad with the cheapest lettuce and generic Caesar salad dressing I could find. For a total of $31 after tax this was an incredibly disappointing experience and overall a terrible value. If the rest of the menu is as low quality as what we were served, then this whole restaurant/bar is a terrible value. The "All Day Happy Hour" deals were so lackluster and boring that I didn't even consider ordering a drink while I was here. While I will give them some grace given that the restaurant was crowded during a "Puzzled Pints" event happening that evening, there were still empty tables while all of this was happening! The restaurant was by no means at capacity and the restaurant had plenty of time to prepare for this given the event was scheduled I imagine at least a month in advance. This place is the epitome of everything that is wrong with so many restaurants/bars in Denver being overpriced for mediocre at best food, boasting the most disappointing "deals", and terrible service that prompts you to tip 30% before you've even seen your food.”
