1280 25th St. - RiNo
You'd think a place so lauded for its extensive cocktail offerings wouldn't have anything to offer in the non-alcoholic arena, but boy would you be wrong. You'll find NA cocktails, beers, and wines on the menu at Death & Co that are sure to satisfy.

If you haven't made the trip to Honey Elixir Bar yet, then you're truly missing out. The inside is cozy and adorable, and the menu is a true change of pace, whether you're going NA or not. Seriously, with drinks featuring things like "osha root, ginger, apple, winter spices, and clover honey," Honey Elixir turns the originality up to an 11.

3254 Navajo St. - Highlands
Noisette blends classic techniques and recipes together to create the kind of French dining that brings comfort to the soul and delight to the senses. Pair that with a L'Abricot (Seedlip Grove non-alcoholic spirit, apricot black tea syrup, lime, and tonic) and you have the perfect dining experience.

2000 E. 28th Ave. - Whittier
Opened in 2022, Point Easy strives to serve seasonal, local, and interesting food. That goal carries over into its NA offerings like the Free Spirit Spritz (verjus, hopped grapefruit, lemon, and soda), Jason's Waterfall (lemon, simple syrup, rosemary, citrus), and more.

3040 Blake St. - RiNo
Despite being Denver's first hard kombucha taproom, Blind Tiger still offers non-alcoholic libations so that all can enjoy a trip to the taproom. Crack open a can of Corpse Reviver or choose from two delicious mocktails, and don't forget about the rotating non-alcoholic kombuchas.

65 Broadway - Baker
Bowling and non-alcoholic drinks go hand-in-hand, right? With a Watermelon Palmer in one hand and a bowling ball in the other, we're sure you can land a strike or two.

Throw a little mystery into your sober journey with the dealer's choice non-alcoholic drink option at Hudson Hill. One thing's for certain, you're going to love whatever you get.

3201 Walnut St. - RiNo
Improper City pulls no punches when it comes to non-alcoholic offerings. Grab a refreshing mocktail like the Urban Elixir or Lion Tamer, kick back with an Athletic Brewing NA beer, or sip the day away with a rotating tap of kombucha. The only problem you'll face is making a choice!

1500 Wynkoop St. - LoDo
The idea behind Upstairs Circus is "DIY Workshop Meets Bar." If that's not enough to pique your interest, then maybe NA offerings like the Cherry Unicyclist featuring cold brew, cherry, vanilla simple, chocolate, and cream will do it.

2021 W. 32nd Ave. - Highlands
Lady Jane offers a high-quality, well-curated drinks list in a welcoming and unpretentious space. The curation is more than evident in the non-alcoholic drinks sections with options like the Rosehip Spritz. We'll take two, please.

1745 Wazee St. - LoDo
If you know Do303 then you know we're big Taco Tuesday fans, and therefore, big margarita fans. What if we told you that you can have your margarita and keep it NA as well? Well, at Rio Grande Mexican Restaurant in LoDo, you can do just that with the Strawberry "Marg" which gives you all the taste with none of the booze.
