Amanda (the GM and her team at Arvada Tavern were amazing working with me for a group event (17 people on a Monday night with just a week of warning. Dre, our server was AMAZING at keeping track of our group, and was attentive and accommodating. The cocktails and environment were fantastic and we had a GREAT time. I'm so grateful for Arvada Tavern for helping us celebrate : Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Love relaxing in this establishment. The entire staff is quite friendly. We particularly love our bartender, Samantha, super great customer service with a friendly disposition. Along with Samantha we enjoy visiting with the Manager Amanda, whenever we visit. The food is okay and VERY expensive for Olde Town. Wish they had a happy hour and a better menu to choose from. In addition, compared to other places in town the drinks are WAY overpriced. All in all, I can still recommend the Tavern to folks who want to unwind their busy day and get away from the maddening crowd.

The server was fabulous, and they had great live music. Unfortunately our drinks were so terrible we only took 2 sips and had to leave. I ordered 3 dots and a dash and my partner had a coconut rum drink. Both tasted stale and gross. Service: Dine in Meal type: Other Price per person: $10–20 Food: 1 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4

Super duper great food and drink at the Arvada Tavern. Service was on point, Samantha L was super knowledgeable and she could not have been nicer and more accommodating. The bartenders and kitchen staff absolutely killed it for our first visit here. We had Pierogi and Chicken Schnitzel and both dishes were really delicious and full of flavor. Highly recommend we will be back. Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $20–30 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes: Chicken Schnitzel

Nestled in Arvada since 1933, this charming tavern offers a delightful ambiance and a well-crafted cocktail menu that impresses patrons. While appetizers like the artichoke dip and chicken schnitzel receive rave reviews, the dinner menu is considered limited and may not cater well to vegetarians. Service experiences are mixed, with some servers shining in professionalism while others fall short. Desserts, especially the house-made donuts and crème brûlée, are highlights that warrant attention. With a cozy atmosphere and tasty drinks, the tavern is recommended for a casual evening out—ideal for cocktails and appetizers rather than full meals.

First things first... Thank you, yelp, for helping finding this gem! This place was established in 1933, and has a really wonderful ambience and vibe. Outstanding cocktails, I mean really really good. Three of us enjoyed the chicken schnitzel, steak salad, and salmon in posole sauce. Three happy diners, three smiling faces, three clean plates. For dessert, we shared the banana pudding and some housemaid donuts. Get the donuts. Repeat: get the donuts. The banana pudding was good, but would have been better with some sliced bananas included. Our server was charming, knowledgeable, and professional. This is our first time in Arvada, but now it's looking like we will be back once a year for the Jazz Guitar festival. This will absolutely be included on every visit from here on. In my opinion, it's the best food and cocktails we've had in Arvada. Hope you enjoy!

Standard tavern fare. Nothing special. Probably would not return. Not a great wine selection.

Food was phenomenal. Best rocky mountain oysters i've ever had. Ambiance was a gorgeous speakeasy type. After eating dinner, ask to go to the hidden tiki lounge. There are literally award winning cocktails on the menu. Like what. I enjoyed my time and forgot that I was in a restaurant. Definitely check it out. :

Our waitress was friendly, but the prices for the food were quite high. The atmosphere was pleasant, though.

Entrees were good. Dessert was bad. Peach cobbler with minimal fruit and bad

Everything was perfect! The waitress went out of her way to cater to our wishes. The chicken schnitzel was incredible, and the pretzel appetizer was also fantastic. It was an amazing dining experience in a wonderful atmosphere.

We booked the back room for a party of eight for a business meeting, and it was the perfect setting. Coordination was a breeze.

Another great meal and great drinks. they are known for amazing mixed drinks and also have a good local beer list. limited wine list. eating is great and used local sources. is looking forward to the return!

I had another fantastic meal along with excellent drinks. This place is renowned for its amazing mixed drinks and offers a nice selection of local beers. The wine list is somewhat limited, but the food is outstanding and highlights local ingredients. I'm already looking forward to my next visit!

First time at the Arvada Tavern and will definitely be back. From start to finish the food, drinks and service were some of the best we’ve had at any restaurant in the Arvada area. One of our new favorite spots!

Delicious! We started with grilled carrots (sorry we took the pic after eating some of the carrots) which had balsamic, butter and bits of grilled peaches and maybe apple...so, so, so good. Our entrees were the pork chops and the striped bass. Both were outstanding. Topped off the meal with strawberry shortcake made with Phyllis dough. Yum! Our drinks were excellent as well...Remember the Maine, and a Lavender Greyhound Excellent hospitality too. Glasses of prosecco were brought to our table to help us celebrate our special day. Definitely recommend The Arvada Tavern.

This is an excellent restaurant with wonderful hospitality and outstanding service. I have no complaints, as everything is well-rounded. The custom drinks are fantastic, and the bar food is exceptional. I definitely plan to return next time. Thank you for the amazing service!

The experience is quite good. The pop-up cocktails are pre-made, so don't expect them to be mind-blowing. However, it's still worth a visit!

VERY good food. Great atmosphere and helpful stall. I'll be coming again.

Fantastic tasting, serious, old Skool cocktails, and creative, extremely fresh, and well cooked entrees in an kinda old world early American century feel with a modern twist. Don't fret though, the service is low key and staff is very friendly and knowledgeable to answer any questions you may have. Pricey but this is quality. Cheers Chef
