Where the DTC Actually Unwinds
The Denver Tech Center had plenty of glass towers — and not nearly enough places worth staying after 5. Griffin Tavern fixed that.
Griffin Tavern | Our Story
Built for a Different Reason
The Griffin opened with one clear mission: delight people. Not a corporate concept, not a chain — just a real pub where DTC workers and neighbors could pull up a stool and feel at home.
A Bar Worth Bragging About
Behind the bar sits a branded Griffin barrel flanked by a serious whiskey collection — Stranahan's, Breckenridge Bourbon, Macallan, and more. Denver Beer Co. pours run alongside hand-built cocktails that actually give you a reason to slow down.
Food That Earns the Trip
The menu punches well above tavern-food expectations — from house-brined barbecue bourbon wings to stacked bacon cheeseburgers with waffle-cut sweet potato fries. It's the kind of food you tell people about later.
The After-Work Ritual
3–6 PM daily — wings, sliders, and drinks at prices that make the after-work decision easy. It's become a fixture for the DTC crowd, and that's exactly the point.
The Regulars Say It Best
Guests come back for the food and drinks — and for the people serving them. A team that treats newcomers like regulars and regulars like old friends.
