North Side Tavern Restaurant - Broomfield, Colorado

Sometimes when you’re not looking, you uncover a hidden gem. I had driven by this place a few times, stopped by outside to look in and thought well there’s not much here.
This week I heard a couple people talking about this place called the Northside Tavern talking about how great it was, all I could think was the place that I have driven by a bunch of times and doesn’t look like much? I had actually driven by the place in the somewhat rundown shopping center. I asked a bunch of questions of the people that were talking about it, to make sure this was the same place. I was thinking about, thinking this Surely cannot be the place… but tonight I decided to try it!

When we first arrived, it was completely packed, we put our names on the list, and were told it would be about a 30 minute wait, which was OK because we went for a walk while we waited for the table to be ready.

My wife ordered a Reuben with a side of fries, and I had the French dip with a side of fries, and the dessert was a very delicious slice of Keylime pie!
I must say for a little tavern their food is quite nice. The Homemade Keylime pie was outstanding, it is every bit worth of $9.50 that I paid for it! I included a picture, about twice the thickness of normal Keylime pies, and the presentation was exceptional!

Something else that I noticed while I was there, there was a guy coming by and he was actually greeting everybody and seeing how the food was, making sure that drinks and everything were OK. I’ll need to find out later. It was the owner, I have very rarely seen managers, let alone owners give the level of service that this man was giving.
I was actually so impressed that I asked his name, “ it’s Steve” he said and shook my hand. I congratulated him on a very well run restaurant and let him know that he would be getting a great review!

I asked the server that was serving us. Her name was Drea, about the place and she said this place is filled with pretty much everybody in the neighborhood, everybody knows everybody here! I think she said she had worked there six years.

So if you’re looking for the type of restaurant that we used to have years ago, that was similar to the series “Cheers”, I would highly suggest a stop in here!

Do yourself a favor and stop here to have a decent bite of food, and please do not forget the homemade Keylime pie that will rock your taste buds, the recipe is straight from the Florida Keys !

Excellent food with a great selection of Colorado craft beers. I highly recommend that you visit here and enjoy the Shaved Steak and Arugula with a side of Au Jus. But anything I try is delicious and worth a visit. It does get very busy due to the chef driven menu and quality.

I got the cast iron BBQ pulled pork mac and cheese. My wife got the prime rib beef dip sandwich. We shared a wedge salad which was awesome. Not much waiting room before you get a table, and parking was tricky with how popular they are. The staff was very efficient and friendly one seated, just don't get in their way when waiting for a table. LOL We will definitely be back!

We were returning from a day at TWAS and found this restaurant on Google. The restaurant was very nice. I loved the old style door as the front. The inside was very modern. We started with the Bavarian pretzels and were delighted to find it soft and full of flavor with the queso. We had the meatloaf and chicken tender salad. We also got a side of sweet potato fries. We were both unable to finish our meals and had to take it home. The fries were the best we had ever had. They had a good seasoning on them. We wanted to have desert but were unable to eat anymore. The waitress was great. I ordered a cherry grenadine coke, and she brought me a pitcher so I could have as much as I wanted. Great place to stop and have some great food!

Amazing place! New favorite spot! Best fried pickles ever, huge portions crispy lightly-breaded fish and chips. My partner had the bison rueben and the vision was so delicious and flavorful! Service was fantastic as well- attentively and great energy.

North Side Tavern Restaurant is a hidden gem! The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, perfect for a casual night out. The food is top-notch fresh ingredients, generous portions, and delicious flavors. The service was friendly and attentive, making the whole experience even better. Highly recommend their signature dishes and craft cocktails. Will definitely be back!

We love it here. The food is always amazing, consistent, and affordable in my opinion. The service is usually great, though I've had a couple times with individual servers that they forget about us or take a couple times to get an order right. But otherwise, great spot and highly recommend.

Delicious food and very good service. Our neighbor recommended this restaurant for date night so we went. We actually wanted prime rib but it was sold out so we ended up ordering meatloaf and salmon dishes. They were so delicious that we forgot about prime rib. We will be back for sure.
