Park House

The food here is less than decent and the service is even worse. I will definitely never eat here again. I’ve gone here twice, once before they had new ownership and changed the menu and was disappointed, I went again after they changed the menu and was even more disappointed. Would not recommend.

Updated Cajun menu! Always comfy place for locals, big TVs, friendly and casual employees…
Enjoyed the small plates of collard greens and chicken & sausage gumbo… Great but WOW the sodium was off the charts… I gave the constructive criticism to our server and they kindly reduced the bill by 20%
I’ll be back!

Pretty awesome Cajun food with a great atmosphere. Must try the crawfish cheese bread, it’s amazing. Sadly have never had very good service here from the waitresses, but the bartenders make up for it.

I had no idea this place served cajun food! They do, minus any kitchy New Orleans décor. It looks like your standard pub, but then, BAM, they spring the menu on you and it’s all po’ boys and beans and rice.
The food was excellent. Who knew something as simple as beans, rice, cheese, and andouille sausage could taste so amazing? The fried okra was bomb too.
Like I said, it’s kind of your standard looking pub, so there’s not much for ambience, but the nice thing is that it’s kind of an undiscovered place as of yet, so there are no lines to wait for dinner and service was very prompt.

Amazing! Absolutely amazing. Good home cookin, wonderful atmosphere and tons of nooks to hide away in. A game room??? We’re talking Nintendo!
Live music???
Yep I feel like I’m HOME

I came by to check out the live music. They have live music throughout the week, and it’s usually free! The place is super cozy and had a great fireplace and outdoor patio. I just hung out at the bar to be in close but not too close range to the music. To be honest, you can hear it throughout the place, so no need to fight to get to the front row. The vibe was overall pretty chill and welcoming.
In terms of the bar, Amber was super friendly and attentive. They had a great variety of Colorado draft beers and lots of fun cocktails. I was more in a beer mood, but it seemed like other folks were ordering Shark Attacks left and right. Not sure what those are to be exact. I had a fun time and look forward to coming back. The kitchen closed before I could get food, so I’ll definitely have to come back earlier some time.

Great spot! Very eclectic place with different seating options and themes in every room. Great food and live music.

I like the fact I can zip line to this place and almost never pay a cover to see live music. Chef Ed and his crew are great, and the Cajun menu does not disappoint. The gumbo, crawfish cheese toast, and the shrimp po boy sandwich are delicious. I haven’t tried a burger here yet, but I hear they’re amazing. This is definitely one of my favorite stops in the hood.

We were here for Sunday football and food. I had a Blackened Shrimp Po-​boy with fires and it was delicious. Beer selection was good and the staff was friendly. It’s an old building with all sorts of character. I am going back for the Crawfish ETOUFFEE.

Interior was super cute. We came on a Sunday midday to watch the games and there wasn’t much going on but they do have lots of tvs so we were able to watch all the diff games. They don’t have jambalaya or much to the menu which was disappointing but the staff was nice.

The hubs and I have made it here twice now. The first time we stopped in because I saw the «Soulfax sessions» listed on some event calendar somewhere and I love good live music. It was a Thursday night and not terribly busy. The set up is pretty different from most bars. It’s big and pretty spread out with different rooms. There are regular table tops, couches, chairs a patio etc. We ordered some food and drinks. Hubs had the grilled cheese (meh) and I had the fried green tomato salad. The grilled cheese was pretty meh. Could have stepped things up using real cheese instead of waxy american. The salad was great but the tomatoes were really under-​seasoned and needed quite a bit more salt and some more dressing. The band was so good, we were really had a good time.
The next time we stopped in was Saturday night. Another live band. The place was pretty busy but we found a able, had good service from our waitress and we ordered food again. I had the hush puppies and greens. The hush puppies were a little dense, but both items were good. The bad was so much fun! The crowd was pretty eclectic and the drinks were solid. We’ll be back again!

I drive by Park House every day and have always wanted to try it out, so I was excited when I discovered that Mike Masse (A talented musician who primarily covers other artists) was going to play there, and with no cover! How could it get any better?
Clearly a few of the owners share my enthusiasm for Mike Masse, as two of them joined the band for a few songs playing sax and drums (they were good).
The music and fries were great, unfortunately, everything else was a bit of a disaster.
There had to be 6+ employees/​owners of Park House enjoying the show, but only two of them were serving the entire restaurant. This meant it took 20 minutes to get two beers and an order of fries while everyone else stood around. ugh.
The worst part of the evening was that the wife of one of the owners reserved a huge table in front of the stage but decided that she needed to «stretch her legs», and encouraged everyone at her table to stand and talk loudly the entire night. They blocked 50% of the viewing space for Mike Masse’s band, and basically yelled at each other all night, totally engrossed in conversation. wtf? Her husband was even playing in the band!
It’s totally fine to talk quietly while sitting in a restaurant that also has music. Totally fine, but don’t encourage 6 – 10 people to block the stage and disrespect the artist playing for the entire evening. That was a slap in the face. Will not be back to Park House, or «Peacemakers», or whatever it’s called now.

We went because there was a sign advertising football games, first, the waitress clearly didn’t want to be there. We felt rushed but there was no one else there. They were airing football games but had 1950s/​60s music blaring the entire time. It didn’t make much sense. The food was good though.
I think I’d like this place better at night.
The vibe of the place is a little pretentious but most of the staff seemed friendly.

Love it! Great bluegrass pick, good food and Angie was amazing. She had half the tables in the place and acted like it was no big deal. Great vibe. We’ll be back.
Thanks Angie!

I have ridden past this place for a couple of years now, and it just did not entice me. On a recent challenge to find somewhere new in my neighborhood to dine at, my friend suggested this place, adding that it was a Cajun/​Southern place… what?!? Quick overview of the online menu and off we went with curious stomachs. We arrived to a mostly empty place, it was a weekday around happy hour time. The place is huge and pretty charming. The bartenders were very nice and had extensive knowledge of the menu. One explained about the re-​branding that has been happening for the last 6 months or so, new manager, new chef, indeed a Cajun/​Louisiana themed menu that apparently has been a success so far. And our meal? Definitely a success. We ordered fried okra, I love okra very much and their version was perfect. A light cornmeal dusting instead of the sometimes seemingly frozen version that has a thick coating of bread. These were fresh, seasoned well, and fried perfectly. We also opted for another favorite of mine, the muffuletta. Their version is darn tasty, but was a little small compared to the ones I’ve had back home in Louisiana. Finally, I had to try the red beans and rice with the house made andouille sausage, and while this is not something I had ever done to red beans and rice, the bartender suggested I do so-​add cheese to make it ‘fully loaded’. The andouille was great, very impressed. The red beans were yummy and the rice-​the rice was spot on. Maybe no cheese next time, not because it was gross, I just wanna enjoy all the flavors of the dish on it’s own. Also, just a side note to add sausage it’s $ 3 extra, cheese a $ 1. We were there during happy hour, which has drink and small bite specials, I had a $ 3 well drink, not too shabby. Apparently they have crawfish boils, oh man, why am I just now hearing about this joint? The service was very friendly and boy I can’t wait to come back to try more, especially the crawfish étouffée, po’ boys, and pretty much everything!
Also check out the website
for the calendar of events/​music that they have and their nightly specials.

A friend-​girl of mine booked her wedding here prior to the recent Southern/​Cajun revamp.
I didn’t have any issues with the place, The owners let us come in early to rearrange and decorate so that everything was ready and in place for the event.
The food that was served was superb. I mean, really. It wasn’t what any of us was expecting since choosing this venue was a last minute decision after our previous venue fell through so we had already decided to make the best of it but we really didn’t have to. I can’t even remember everything they served but I know it included buffalo chicken tenders, mini burgers, salad, cookies, the wedding cake…
I really appreciate the owners of this establishment. They were cool and helpful.
I recently visited (May 2015) to see they are trying something new. We were headed to a concert at the Ogden and decided to stop in to wait for the rest of our group. We ordered the fried okra and cajun fries. They were both good. The staff was friendly.
The Southern/​Cajun scene is not my thing (I escaped from the Bible Belt) but I am willing to give the place another try on an evening when I want a full meal. I may even stick around for some of the live music.

Awesome vibe and great food! I had the mushroom and swiss burger with a nitro stout. Wife had a veggie burger and chocolate martini. Both were excellent. Service was top notch.
The amenities and music were fantastic. I’ll definitely be going back.

UNDER NEW MANAGEMENT!!!
Chef Ed from Hi-​Pac is the new chef. Complete menu, bar and staff change.
I loved the food at the Hi Pac so I was excited to see what they had to offer and the shrimp po boy did not disappoint! They also had a great happy hour.
This place went from ZERO to HERO. You should check it out!

I dig any place with a piano, but the Park House has much more to offer! Often live music, an abundance of comfortable seating arrangements, the Park House is a great place to grab a drink with friends.
I tend to go there on Thursdays, as there is a free to play bar poker night and live music, but the weekends are great as well. Good spot!

PORK HOUSE! Seriously who chose the font for the sign in the front?
This place is great to accommodate a big group and is usually not too crowded. Big place, with little side rooms with games and old video game consoles, and big couches to sit on. There’s live bands pretty consistently and although they are not the greatest, it does ruin the environment. Great place to start or end if you’re crawling Colfax bars near the Bluebird.
