Corridor 44
Larimer Square's long, narrow champagne bar, open until 2am every night.
Corridor 44 bills itself as Denver's only champagne bar, and it has held down this skinny Larimer Square storefront for well over a decade: a bar the length of the room, a list of grower Champagnes and cavas by the glass, sparkling cocktails, oysters and small plates. It is a first-drink or last-drink room rather than dinner, and it keeps late hours seven nights a week, which is rare on this block. Dress is a notch up from the rest of LoDo.
Why go. A glass of real Champagne at 1am on Larimer Square.
Come at 3–5pm on a weekday for the quiet version and a seat at the bar; weekend nights it is a pre-club stop and the room gets tight.
