Sips (with a Z) — Restaurant in Denver

So our daughter was in town and we took her to Meow Wolf. We had been a few times, but it was her first experience. She was (of course) loving it. When she was done, we found one of the exit stairways (feels a bit like Ball Arena in there) and started down the stairs. We opened one of the doors, and thought we were just wandering into one of the displays.

We realize that they are serving real food and drinks, in a funky Meow Wolfy atmosphere and have a cocktail. We are mesmerized. We did not know this exhibit existed. We went back into the same door and down the stairs and out the building.

We were so excited. We asked a couple of friends who had been there before, and they didn’t know about it. Sips With A Z. The legend started growing in our head.

A couple of months later, we decided to go back to Meow Wolf and find this SipsWith A Z as our Fathers’ Day treat. Like little kids, we go to the information desk to ask for directions to this room. We haven’t laughed so hard in a while. It is directly above the food court in the main lobby. Take the circular stairway up. It’s right there. And we thought it was some secret hidden exhibit.

It is a hidden gem. The bartenders and manager are so awesome. Great drinks. Can be a little crowded at the bar, but everyone stays calm.

The best part that day was getting a high top table near that doorway entrance. We sat having drinks while confused people stumbled through the door - having the same experience we had with our daughter the first time.

We went again a few weeks ago with a small group of friends. We had a nice big booth and a couple of cocktails to get everyone ready for the exhibits.

Highly recommend....

I absolutely love it here!! Jason and the other bartenders were so kind and friendly! Usually upscale cocktail lounges are a bit snooty, but not this place. The staff are giving dive bar, small town enegery while being in a very beautiful lounge. Cocktails are absolutely...

Great to have a spot to take a rest between exploring with libations in a lounge atmosphere to recharge - I appreciated it more than the cafeteria atmosphere downstairs as this feels...
