Best burger in Denver. Classic dive bar feel. Cheep beer. Good burgers. Need I say more? Honestly, the thought crossed my mind of leaving an average review, to help keep this spot more hidden (ha).
Bar is by itself in a very small, quiet, dark neighborhood; but it stands out with neon lights. Doesnt seem like much when you walk up to it, but once you get inside, its pretty Lively with 80s music. Small bar with engaging bartenders. Self service at the bar -no waitresses; you do order from the menu also with the bartender. We parked in the neighborhood a block away. We didnt know until we got inside, that they do have a parking lot behind the bar. Great Wings, we will return. This was our first time here
Took the advise of my Nextdoor app friends and tried this place tonight. Holy moly. Yes. Best cheeseburger in Denver! Service was fantastic! Patio is socially distanced. Will be back on the regular for sure!
Dont worry if its busy, it is worth the wait. the place has an awesome atmosphere. they have a lot of positive reviews for a reason.
Certainly a top place in the area. Next time Ill be back with my friends. It has an awesome feel to it.
It was so appetizing. The staff was helpful and kind. The bill wont shock you. Feels like a place in Los Angeles I loved.
Do yourself a favor and try this place. I will be back with my coworkers. Prices that wont shock you.
Good prices on great drinks. This small bar has a relaxing neighborhood feel.
Food was so tasty. Nothing but pleasant experiences here. This place has an awesome atmosphere. They have so many reviews for a reason.
Dont worry if its busy, it is worth the wait. Ill return with my relatives. Prices are reasonable. Similar to a place in Denver I loved.
Arrived at seven, it wasnt crowded. definitely worth going back to. the bill was appropriate. menu is similar to a restaurant in jacksonville i liked.
Top notch dive bar. Great atmosphere, nice staff and cheap drinks.
One of the few bars left in this town that I actually like. Great staff great burgers.
Same as it ever was. Not exactly a dive bar but hardly fancy. Good spot for a relatively cheap drink.
If I tell you how Good it was they might be too busy and Ill Never get IN!!In all seriousness, theyre GREAT!!
Nice place to think about business. the prices are fair for the quality of food.
Best deal in town on Tuesdays buy a drink and get a burger for free, at the burgers are damn good.
This is the perfect no frills neighborhood tavern. Super friendly, great burgers, well priced drinks. Games in back. They bring out a carving station on Fridays and serve up meat for free. Who does that?! Awesome!
Visited Fri evening I think. The prices are good for what you get.
Hidden Gem. This is the sort of local haunt that becomes an instant go-to when you’re lucky enough to hear about it.
Best Home Away from Home for Detroit Sports.
This place does it for me. I had a brother come into town and asked me to take him back here.
Cool neighborhood bar although, the night I went was pretty dead, but the bartender was really and it seemed like a cool place. Ill definitely come to check it out on a little bit busier night
It has a great atmosphere.
Great time Good people and wonderful service. Highly reccomend. Fantastic local pub to get friends together!!! Thanks!
Great dive bar, Dave the owner is always around and the staff is very friendly. Darts, pool, jinga to name a few games. Its a fun spot
Great hole in the wall place. Not overpriced and definitely not a chain restaurant feel. Visit this place not wearing your church clothes.
Great little Dive Bar to go. Friendly staff and great service!
Great dive bar!
Bugs and ants behind the short shelf over by the pool tables. In the dictionary under old dive bar theres a picture of this place. Its run down, dirty, and nothing looks maintained. The burgers come out looking just as bad as the bar, but unexpectedly, they are very tasty. Onion rings were good too. Just replacing the ceiling tiles and showing this place a little cleaning love would make it so much better.
One of the best burgers I’ve ever had! And a great bar to shot some darts at. Staff and crowd here are great.
Five star dive bar
Best burger in denver. Kitchen closes 10pm so get there before then... pool tables, darts, typical bar.
Best $5 burger hole in the wall in Denver. All of the staff is super friendly including the cook who has the fast burger down quick and tastes excellent and perfectly juicy!
Great dive bar. Awesome staff and great burgers! Pool tables and darts and sports. APA pool leagues.
Great burger
If youre looking for an unpretentious dive bar this is a great spot. Its dark, no windows or natural light, but a cool spot to grab a beer. I wouldnt spend an afternoon here, its more of a quick grab and go
Great dive bar. Burgers were absolutely delicious and inexpensive. Family friendly and service was great especially considering they only had 3 people working. I will definitely go there again
Had a great time, but its hard to know what to do when you get inside. I know its a bar but it was hard to get a tab it was hard to get a beer it was hard to get a shot, it was hard to get the table,it was hard to play shuffleboard, it was hard to play foosball. I love a good crowded bar but it should have a little bit more organization. I had a great time though catch
Best 5 dollar burger youll ever have!
Perfect neighborhood bar!! Love the shuffleboard table
Food with real quality ingredients. This place has a great design. Reminds me of a place in New York I loved to visit.
Great people
Wholesome, family friendly place. I would recommend it to anyone.
Great Dive Bar!
Its simply a gem for locals. Friendly service, good music, and tasty food. The burgers are great! Coming here is a good way to start the day. I would highly recommend visiting!
Often packed dive bar with reliable service and great prices
Wish I could give them 10 stars! Had the best time!
Okay my experience in this tiny dive bar was surprisingly great! My boyfriend and I went for his companies Christmas party. They rented the place out, ordered pizza, had a raffle, ect. Such a great time! The lack of space was a bit overwhelming at times, but as people trickled out later in the night it felt more comfortable. If youre looking for a casual and affordable place to grab a drink Candlelight Tavern is your jam.
The Candlelight is a great Denver Dive Bar!Good neighborhood prices and friendly staff. There are lots of games: shuffleboard, darts, pool tables, Foosball and a Golden Tee...great for a date or group of friends! Their burgers are AMAZING!!! Hot wings are good too!FUN bar!
West Wash Park neighborhood bar. Great value on drinks. Bar burgers a great late night snack
Great bartenders, yummy food, and good prices!
Top hideout in Wash Park... great drinks and definitely a locals haunt.
Nice little spot... foosball table is where its at!
Nice atmosphere food was ok
Great neighborhood dive bar, small and quaint!
Great drink prices and the onion rings were delicious! Amy the bartender was attentive and friendly! Well go back when in that part of town.
This place gets five stars for its true dive bar nature. The staff is very cool and down to earth. No frills pool table, darts, shuffle board, and large jenga. It can get bust on a Fri night or Saturday night. The food is cheap but food. The chef takes pride in his burger.
Very dirty place. Limited choices in craft beer. No patio and slow service.
Great arcade and table games, jukebox, pool, and the veggie burgers are AMAZING! Love the bartenders here too!
I think we had fun.
Each of the patrons of this place I have dealt with are jerks. Never going here again.
One of the best dive bars around wash park.
Fun bar with lots of Bar games and an interesting crowd. It is small, so seating is limited, but that makes it more fun.
Great place. Free snacks after work that are excellent every time. Friendly staff. Relaxed place to hang out and listen to good music with friends.
This is a place where you can play variety of bar games, so it is good place if you have group of friends that like to compete against each other. They have Foosball, darts, jenga, pool tables, and shuffleboard which means you can spend a lot of time there and not get bored. Food is decent, nothing fancy but good enough to get you thru.
Visited here a couple months ago and loved it. Good beer, plenty of sports on the TV and everyone is very friendly. Had a great time talking to Scooter, one of the bar tenders and the other locals who were there. If I come through Denver again I am going to visit here again. Best place around to get a beer, watch the game, and have a descent conversation. Thank you all for being a great group of people.
Just a hometown bar, burgers are dope, staff is awesome. darts, pool, adult jenga, shuffle, and plenty of options at le bar. a favorite
Candlelight has good food - Amy greeted us took our order and made us feel welcome for first timers with her friendly and helpful manner. GREAT place for a hamburger.
Best Bartenders!!! GREAT service!! Delicious, fresh, tender burger! Courteous door and kitchen staff, too. Hassle free crowd.
Classic dive bar. Shuffleboard, pool tables, life-size Jenga, Golden Tee, and booze. Also, MLB extra inning package!
I love goong here they are so friendly and quaint we go for lunch sometimes to play a game of pool and eat a good cheeseburger
Excellent Hot Wings and prices
Filty place, get your shots up to date before entering that place. Bad attitudes, there is a reason why the place is nick named The Candlefight. Dave the owner is a real piece of work...
One of the best bar burgers in town. Pool tables could use some attention.
Great place, cheap tasty bar food.
Bartenders are rude and only serve customers they know. Won’t be back.
Cheap drinks and games. Cant get much better than that!
I think I paid $6-7 for a dozen wings? Sold. Great little dive bar with shuffle board, darts, and pool. Worth every penny. Lot of the patrons were a ton of fun.
Dive bar. Cheap drinks, non pricy food but decent, friendly staff, 2 pool tables & other bar games. Located in a nice neighborhood with easy parking, plus they have parking spots in the back.
Awesome dive bar. pool tables, steel tip darts and a tornado foosball table
Elevated pub food, good beers on tap and happy hour. Small & friendly. We brought our college age kids not a heavy drinking atmosphere.
Great dive. Friendly staff and patrons. Showed up at 8pm on a Friday evening to a bar full of cheery, seasoned bar flies. Everyone there was fun and a little rough around the edges at that time, which I greatly like. By about 9:30, it was starting to fill up with a younger crowd, but I greatly enjoyed the visit.
FUN TIMES.. GREAT LOCALS PLACE :)
Nice neighborhood dive bar! Tasty food, great atmosphere, and attentive staff. The burgers are excellent here. Will come back with friends soon
Cool little hang out with plenty of TVs. One side has tables to sit, the other side has pool tables and a shuffleboard table. There was a private party on a Saturday at 6PM which kind of sucked but thats cool that you can rent the whole place out for a private party.Overall, Id go there to chill/belly up and watch games anytime.
I loved the burger and wings they served the staff were very nice
An excellent establishment - a feast for beer drinkers. Good prices, good staff, good music. I like it around opening time best - 6PM.
Best beer and burgers in town
Awesome dive bar. Pulls a diverse crowd and is always a good time. Has a hood selection of bar games and the best foosball table in town that Ive found.
Possibly the best cheeseburger in Denver!
Its always a good time, great drink prices!
The service wasnt great! After last call which was a little after 1am, they started to turn the lights off and kick people out. We paid to play pool but our game was cut in half after last call. Overall I feel the service sucked and I wont go back.
Bartender is snappy with the jokes, gave us a deal on a pitcher, super friendly staff and patrons. Just my kind of laid back neighborhood bar. Great music too!
Old Denver celebrated here regularly. A staple. Great drinks and conversation
Didnt order food so I wont speak on that. What I will say is that a friend brought me here because its close to his house on a Wednesday night and it was busy and fun. Had a great time and Ill recommend it.
Great little hole in the wall bar, especially if you are a Detroit lions fan! Not much seating if the place is packed but a great atmosphere and friendly bar staff.
Great burgers and wings
