Belles & Boots Country Bar Grand Opening in LoDo on April 4th

A new country bar and restaurant is opening up in Lower Downtown Denver on April 4th, 2025. Belles & Boots is moving into the former Sports Column building on 1930 Blake Street, which is close to Coors Field.

Dine, drink, and dance the night away at Belles & Boots. This Western-themed restaurant showcases around-the-clock honky-honky entertainment. There will be DJs Thursday through Saturday, line dancing, VIP bottle service, and even mechanical bull riding.

On the menu will be classic barbecue fare, including pulled pork, beef brisket, and roasted chicken. Sides such as coleslaw, baked beans, and mac n’ cheese complete the meal. The desserts are made from scratch in-house and include sweet potato casserole topped with marshmallows, candied pecans, and graham crackers.

For drinks, try the Belle’s Boot, which is served in a 30-ounce souvenir cup.

“When creating the menu for Belles & Boots, we wanted to keep it approachable and familiar with a little Colorado flair,” said Belles & Boots’ head chef, Edgar Drago. “While guests can enjoy barbecue staples like brisket sandwiches and pulled pork, we’ve incorporated a few playful dishes like The Smoke Show, made with local pork sausage, pork shoulder and brisket and topped with pepper jack cheese, coleslaw, chipotle aioli and chipotle honey barbecue sauce on a brioche bun. Similarly, our cocktail menu is built on a foundation of the classics while encouraging guests to try new, signature creations. Whether a whiskey and beer drinker or craft cocktail connoisseur, there’s something for everyone at Belles & Boots.”

A boot-shaped disco ball sets the tone of this 4,000-square-foot space. The meats are sourced locally from Meats by Linz and smoked in-house daily.

“While Denver has outgrown its Cowtown reputation, it is still influenced by Western and ranching culture today,” said Lotus Concepts Management CEO and founder, Francois Safieddine. “We saw an opportunity to give the classic cowboy bar an authentic and modern twist and create a high-energy space where guests can enjoy locally sourced smoked meats, sip craft cocktails and dance to their favorite country hits under a disco boot. Belles & Boots is something new for Denver and we can’t wait for the community to experience it.”
