What are the best bars in Boulder?

The Mediterranean has a lively happy hour scene with great appetizer and drink specials. Across the street, 1010 is also a fine place for tasty food and wine selection but with a French flare. For those Mexican/margarita cravings, the Rio Grande is the place. The Rio will be remodeling their bar...the plans look great...the rooftop dining will stay the same. For an authentic Boulder historic/architectural experience, the Corner Bar/Q's at the Boulderado is a classic,

The Southern Sun is a very welcoming, family-friendly bar with locally-brewed beer and delicious burgers. Another great place for a beer and burger in Boulder is The Dark Horse, located on Baseline Road. It's a real dive bar, but an experience! Be careful that the bathrooms don't trick you!

Bitter Bar for hand crafted cocktails, Conor O'Neills for a true Irish Pub, Q's bar and Catacombs in the Hotel Boulderado, and I agree with Jenny, The Rio makes a dangerous Marg!
