El Charrito

Bald guy with a beard who runs karaōke is a scumbag who only prioritizes his friends and treats new customers like garbage. Terrible service.

Great music. Pleasant atmosphere. I would recommend anything, except the Mexican egg rolls just wasn’t for me.

We walked by this dive bar on Saturday night looking to go to another bar. We heard the karaōke through the open door and decided to turn back. What a great idea! The drinks are cheap, the songs are fun, the dance floor is large. This is the ultimate dive bar. The crowd was lively for karaōke and it felt like we were at some kind of party.
This place is a great time!

There’s a reason this place rates high! Karaōke, PBR/​shot $ 5 combo and awesome games! This place is your ticket for a night to start right for fun in Denver! They have a pool table in the back and blow up guitars for those killer karaōke songs that you need some live action during those dank mixes! Connect four is my go to game while we wait for our jam. Please enjoy this place responsibly… As it is was to much fun!

This is a dive bar in LoDo that is differentiated in that it has karaōke. The people get into it and really make it fun. The drinks are pretty cheap but I wish the bartenders would pay a little more attention to the order of who was at the bar. In the end, it’s a great stop along if you’re jumping around different bars.

This is my favorite karaōke bar in town. Karaōke is Friday and Saturday nights, and the occasional Tuesday night (punk rock karaōke). The sound is great and most songs are up-​beat, so it tends to be more fun that most karaōke bars I’ve been to. On a Friday or Saturday night, be ready to sing, or at least dance to someone else singing. They have live music and comedy at other times, though I’m not familiar with that.
The bartenders make good drinks and the menu has lots of different tequilas and tequila drinks. I haven’t eaten there, but the Mexican food menu looks good.

I’m gonna do the annual birthday bash here. I love this place and its people.

Ran across this dive karaōke bar on our last night in Colorado. Good song selection, good sound system, and very fair karaōke rotation.
Did not eat the food but the beers and well priced.

A wonderful local bar in the ballpark area with a super friendly staff. The best karaōke in town on the weekends. A true five star dive bar!

Came here after a game, not much of a crowd, but we were a group of ourselves!
The tacos are «muy delocioso»… I don’t speak Spanish! A friend of mine told us we should go there as we were passing… Great choice!
We are having a great time!

There are two reasons to come to El Charrtio, and they’re related. People watching, and Karaōke. This place seriously has some of the weirdest, most wonderful characters coming together and singing everything from country to queen and everything in-​between.
It’s divey, it’s crowded, and it’s well-​worn. But damned if you don’t get a couple drinks down you and suddenly that stage looks like the warmest, most welcoming place in the whole ballpark ‘hood.
If you’re out and want to sing, this is your bar. I have heard some pretty terrible renditions of classics, and not only are people not booed, they are embraced. You appreciate the quirky characters and just shoot your friend a look like «is this really happening?»… and next thing you know, it’s your turn to take the stage!

We’ve been going to El Charrito for about 4 years now and it is absolutely my favorite bar around! The staff is always the best, friendly and on top of things. The drinks are cheap and good and the atmosphere is always fun. It’s not the typical downtown crowd, everyone is actually there to have fun. Close proximity to Coors field makes it the perfect spot for pre-​gaming or post game celebrating (or not celebrating, depending on the Rockies) I’m not a singer and don’t do karaōke but it’s always a great time watching everyone else do it. When the weather is nice, the patio is fun to hang out on and people watch. I’ve never had any of the food but I’ve heard it’s quite yummy and better than average for bar food so I’ll have to give that a shot sometime.

This place is amazing! Taco Tuesday to getting beers and a great bar!
But there Tuesday tacos are amazing doing Hard and soft!
The staff is amazing here too!

I have never felt more at home. I walked in and felt warmed immediately by the surroundings. It picked up shortly after I got here. But I anticipated that for a Friday.
But this place is great. The perfect noise level. The perfect bartenders.
I will definitely be coming back.

EXCELLENT for happy hour. $ 1 tacos and 2 for 1 drinks (and the regular drink prices are a steal).
If I remember correctly, happy hour is Tuesday — Sunday (closed Monday) 4−7pm. And they will open for Monday night Rockies games.
I tried all varieties of tacos and they were each very good: beef, pulled pork, chicken, and veggie (bean). I preferred the pork and the vegetarian.
Great selections of creative tequilla cocktails. I tried El Diablo: reposado, crème de cassis, soda water (i might be missing an ingredient) and it was perfectly refreshing for a hot summer day, great balance of tequilla with enough to enjoy the flavor but not too strong.
They also have a ample selection of beers, including gluten free options.
Two of us had two cocktails, two beers and four tacos for a whopping $ 13! Love this place!!! Be sure to tip bartender well to show how much you appreciate these awesome prices (rule is $ 1 per drink plus tipping on food — don’t be «that guy» and think you are tipping well with 18% on $ 13, it’s not Golden Corral).
So glad I stumbled upon this place. El Charrito will be at the top of my list when I am downtown before Rockies games.

Best place in Denver to go on a Sunday morning. Unlimited Mimosas. Awesome food. Live classic rock bands. Great service. Do it.

This place is unique… in a cool funky sorta way. With a Dia de Muertos (Day of the Dead) vibe and cool hip bartenders (but not too hip to actually help you). Toni you are a fantastic bartender! Thanks for taking the time to explain all the different drink combinations. Oh, did I mention they have all these crazy simple syrup combinations they put into all the drinks? Who knew lavender simple syrup was my favorite? The food is really good! We had the Nachos with all fresh veggie on top and Mexican Egg Rolls, they are just what they sound like. YUM! This place had the feel of a dive bar with the reality of a top shelf establishment. Totally worth a visit! Can’t wait to go back!

I live a block from this gem and am a frequent customer! I frequent it for the predictably good times to be had there. Or because their $ 1 Jell-​O shots get me doing karaōke. Either or.
They have a BOGO drink deal and $ 1 Mexican bites most days during happy hour. I’ll usually grab a margarita and quesadilla. Neither are fantastic tasting, but the price is right.
Karaōke every Friday and Saturday is a hit. I’ve sang twice myself (Ace of Base– The Sign… Both times). They host comedian open mic nights on Thursdays– I’ve been once, and it was relatively entertaining.
Regardless of the subpar food and drinks, they have a friendly bar staff and splendid karaōke!
(Actually, their karaōke DJ of choice is kind of a dick, but I won’t penalize El Chorrtio for it.)

Happened to be walking by last night (a Tuesday night)… and this bar was COMPLETELY empty. So me and 4 friends decided to give it a shot.
It was… meh. We sat at the bar and look over to see Frozen playing on a large projector. Maybe its a good movie, I don’t know. But I definitely don’t go to bars on a Tuesday night to watch f-​ing Disney movies and apparently no one else does either because the place was a ghost town.
We asked if they could turn it off and maybe put on music and she said No. So we left. Also, the bathrooms were super disgusting and the doors were all broken. I will definitely NOT be coming back to this place.

Great Dive Bar! We have been in here before and after Rockies games and always have a great time. The owner Matt is super nice and always hangs out and chats with us when we are in there during non-​busy times. Nothing fancy, just a fun local bar.
