Attic Bar & Bistro — Restaurant in Boulder

Unfortunate Experience at The Attic Bar

Rating: ★☆☆☆☆

I recently had an incredibly disappointing and upsetting experience at The Attic Bar. Last week, I witnessed Alex, one of the bartenders, and another bartender being extremely disrespectful to a visibly intoxicated customer. Concerned about the situation, I approached them to inquire and offered to help remove the customer from the bar without any issues.

However, my goodwill seemed to have had a negative impact on my subsequent visits. On my return the following week, I encountered hostility from the bartender, and things took a turn for the worse when a worker (skinny guy with the beard) physically confronted me, causing visible scratches on my arm. This unwarranted confrontation was followed by a shocking expulsion from the bar, with the bartender accusing me of being involved in an incident from the previous week that I had no part in. They alleged that the guy I was with had been throwing beer bottles, which is not only unfair since I didn't even know this individual, but also highly questionable as the bar doesn't even sell beer bottles.

I had a terrible encounter with one of the bouncers, Steve, when I came in the other night. He was incredibly rude and dismissive. While waiting in line, he refused to let me in because I was on the phone, and even after hanging up to come inside, he continued to ignore me and dismiss me entirely by telling me to “just wait a second” after being there for several minutes. I stood there with my ID in my hand at the top of the line, and he continued to let at least 10 people in behind me before even acknowledging me. I’ve heard others complain about Steve’s attitude and the way he dismisses people simply because he “doesn’t like them”. I love the attic, and most of the wonderful employees there, including Kevin, Alex, and Nolan, but Steve is completely unprofessional and does not fit in with the positive atmosphere that the...
