About The Devil’s Drink
A drinks-first Denver pick for nights when cocktails matter more than dinner. The Devil's Drink makes sense as a pre-dinner or late-night stop, but food-focused groups should build the meal elsewhere and come here for the bar portion of the evening.
The Devil's Drink is a Denver venue categorized for cocktails, with verified hours that run late throughout the week. It is open Mon-Thu 4 PM-1 AM, Fri 4 PM-2 AM, Sat 3 PM-2 AM, and Sun 11 AM-1 AM. Dress code is casual.
For a first-timer, treat this as a drinks-focused stop. There is no verified food program, signature dish, reservation policy, price, seating count, or service-format information in the available data, so the safest plan is to use the confirmed basics: cocktails, Denver, casual dress, and the listed hours.
Choose it for cocktails, not a full dinner plan
The category signal is clear: this is a cocktail venue. That makes it easier to consider for a drinks-first plan than for anyone trying to evaluate a full restaurant meal. If food is the main requirement, use a separate dinner plan and treat The Devil's Drink as a Denver cocktail stop.
For a lower-effort Denver plan, pair it with broader research through Pearl's Denver bars guide, then use Pearl's Denver restaurants guide if dinner is non-negotiable. Visitors building a full weekend can also cross-check Denver hotels and other Denver planning resources.
Where it fits in a Denver night out
Among the comparison set, The Devil's Drink is the cocktails-category option. If you are comparing Denver plans, you can also look at Daughter Thai Kitchen & Bar, El Five, Maine Shack, My Brother's Bar, and Room for Milly, depending on what kind of stop you need before or after drinks.
Planning should stay flexible because only a limited set of details is verified here. Use the confirmed hours to decide whether The Devil's Drink fits the timing of the night, and compare it with other Denver dining and bar options if you need a fuller meal, a different format, or more specific amenities.

Compare The Devil’s Drink
Comparison
Against Room for Milly, The Devil's Drink is the more straightforward cocktail stop; Room for Milly is the better choice for a date where the room matters as much as the drink. Against Daughter Thai Kitchen & Bar, Maine Shack, and El Five, it is less useful for a food-led evening and more useful after dinner.
My Brother's Bar is the casual alternative for groups that do not want a cocktail-bar feel. Choose The Devil's Drink when the drink list is the main reason to go; choose the peers when food, views, or a more relaxed bar format matter more.
Where to go if this is not the right fit
Choose Room for Milly if the night needs a more polished cocktail setting. Choose Daughter Thai Kitchen & Bar if the group wants dinner and drinks handled in one stop.
How it compares with nearby Denver picks
Room for Milly is the cleaner choice for a polished cocktail date, while The Devil's Drink is better framed as a livelier drinks stop when the night is already moving. If the group wants the bar to feel more designed and occasion-ready, start with Room for Milly; if the plan is simpler cocktails with less ceremony, this is the easier fit.
Daughter Thai Kitchen & Bar, Maine Shack, and El Five are stronger when food is part of the decision. Pick Daughter Thai Kitchen & Bar for Thai food plus drinks, Maine Shack when seafood is the point, and El Five for a fuller dinner plan. The Devil's Drink should not be treated as the meal anchor unless the group has already eaten.
My Brother's Bar is the casual fallback in this set: lower-pressure, easier for mixed groups, and less cocktail-centric. Choose it when the group wants a relaxed bar rather than a cocktail-focused stop.
