   We were seated next to a sliding glass door . It was freezing. We requested to move to another table but we’re denied despite two open tables next to us that remained open the entirety of our meal. My Moscow mule order was not placed. When it was finally brought to the table it could have passed for a margarita it had so much lime in it. Couldn’t taste the ginger. The ribs were overcooked. Sadly this establishment has declined. The BBQ used to be so good

   Very good. Had the Buffalo chicken sandwich. Very big and not dry. Had a side of macaroni and cheese which was very filling. Overall a good place in a nice part of town.

   Food was good. Service was fine. It’s not as high end as it seemed from the website. Mainly another bar with a few entrees and mainly sandwiches. The beef brisket I had was mainly fat…

   I have never been to the West End Tavern, and was delightfully surprised. The food was excellent and the service was great. l had the brisket and it was superb, as was my husband's Fish and Chips. The Hungry Toad has been our "go to" quick restaurant, but they changed the menu so we decided to try something new. I think that West End will be our new "go to" restaurant! Thanks for the great meal and service!

   West End TavernResponded on January 20, 2023Hello Kathi!! I am so elated to hear you had such a great time that you have changed your go to Boulder restaurant! That makes us feel so great!! Next time your in let the host know I'd love to thank you in person!! -Angie, GM

   From a supper on a friday night, Dining on Main floor better than upstairs which is basically a sports bar. Service was poor, inattentive. Food was "ok". Very noisy upstairs, difficult to carry on a conversation. Lots of better places to meet and eat in Boulder.

    Stopped by for Happy Hour on a Friday afternoon after shopping on Pearl Street. Had a decent Cosmo and crispy Brussels sprouts from the Happy Hour menu. Added fish & chips and burnt ends to make it a meal. Food was very good and well portioned (we had sprouts and fries left to take home). Place was busy and a bit noisy, but a good value on the west end of Pearl.

    We have eaten here a few times and it's pretty much always the same: very good food (pub-like, but with a twist) but not great service. It doesn't stop us from going there, so not sure that's really any incentive for their servers to be better trained................Prices are decent, but it can get a little loud in there so keep that in mind when bringing people (not great for intimate conversation.)

    We felt like we were in the kitchen not a tavern. Avoid the back section on the first floor. The back door was open and very drafty and cold. We all wore our coats through dinner. Food was good not great.

    Very mediocre food..dry and a bit flavorless. Had the jalapeño burger, bbq pork sandwich and fish sticks. Daughter liked the fish sticks so w shave them an extra star. Waiter was great! But overall service was a little slow. Old fashioned was good. Front desk, less than happy to be working. Not a great spot and confused on the high ratings it does have.

    We ordered a couple of drinks, corn ribs, a beef brisket plate and a half slab of ribs. The beverages could have been better. The corn ribs had good flavor, but they were not the easiest to eat. The brisket was slightly above average, although it needed a lot of barbecue sauce to make it taste good. The ribs were the same quality as the brisket. The cornbread muffins were the best, a proper southern kind of savory. Overall, the food was decent, but it was overpriced and nothing to write home about. The service was unfortunately very disappointing. While there were plenty of tables available, we were given a table on the 2nd floor that received a strong draft of cold air from outside, was in the middle of foot traffic from and to the 1st floor, and next to floors that shook every time people walked past our table, which happened every 15 seconds. Despite being right in the middle of foot traffic, our server did not have any interest in actually serving us. He took our drink and starter orders and brought our drinks to our table very quickly. The corn ribs were served to us by somebody else quickly as well. It was a decent start. But then our server, who was standing and talking to his coworkers for 10 minutes, never bothered to take our main course orders. Somebody else, a 3rd person, noticed, so she took our orders. A 4th person served us our plates, but she didn't ask if we want more to drink. A 5th person took our empty glasses but also didn't bother to ask if we wanted more to drink or water refills. After we finished, we sat there for 10 extra minutes before our server finally came back to ask if we were done and then took our plates... again, not asking if we wanted more to drink. We sat there for another 5 minutes before a 6th person asked us if we wanted the check. A 7th person brought our check to our table, took it back and then processed our payment. Our server, who was 10 feet from us, didn't acknowledge us as we left.

    West End TavernResponded on November 6, 2022Hello Mike, Thank you so much for your feedback and I appreciate you sharing your experience and giving us opportunity to improve. I'll be messaging you privately to remedy the situation. Thank you, Angela, General Manager

    Cold unexpected outdoor seating. There was no indication when making our reservation that we would be sitting outside on a top deck area with a good breeze. We were cold and uncomfortable. There were no indoor tables and we needed to eat.

    Great bbq and bar food. Nice atmosphere although we were the table closet to the prep kitchen, I think there is a rooftop I'm sure it's nice up there and the bar area is cozy. Servers were attentive and fun.

    The West End Tavern is a fine, but not great place. I had pulled pork and it was nicely cooked and prepared but I didn’t like the selection of BBQ sauces. My friend had the fish and chips and liked it a lot. The fries are amazing as is the cole slaw. I would have rated this a 4 except for the BBQ sauce and it took 15 minutes or more for someone to wait on us. Service was fine after that. Don’t order the Malbec. It’s not good.

    Stopped here on our way to Estes Park for lunch. Four of us total. Two had the Buffalo Burger, one had the Swiss Mushroom Burger, and I had the Fish and Chips. Also split an roasted Brussels sprouts appetizer ( really good and just enough for the four of us). The Buffalo Burger and Swiss Mushroom Burger got rave reviews from my companions. I wish I could say the same about the Fish and Chops. Would give it 3 out of 5 stars. We sat outside in rooftop dining. Very comfortable and quite overall. The waiter was excellent and not a long wait to be served or seated.

    I love West End Tavern, and it’s been a while since we have gone there. But it’s amazing. The food is great, the view of the flatirons from the patio is awesome. The service is incredible. They work really hard to make sure everyone is getting their food and drinks in a timely manner, even when it’s busy. Tonight, it took a little longer because they were swamped. But all of the employees were so nice, and we didn’t feel rushed to get out even though it was busy.
