The confirmed details are direct: cocktails are the listed cuisine, the price is $35 per person, the dress code is casual, the schedule runs late most nights.

Where it fits in a Denver night out
Use The Devil’s Drink as a cocktail option within a Denver night out, especially if the schedule matters. For broader drinking research, the Denver bars guide is the better next stop. If you want a more food-led plan, compare other dining in Denver generically rather than assuming The Devil’s Drink will cover the whole evening.

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.
Bar context
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, 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, 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, less cocktail-centric. Choose it when the group wants a relaxed bar rather than a cocktail-focused stop.
