We love the atmosphere, design and bar area in here. It’s a little more on the fancy and $$$ side but it’s always really good. They have a pretty decent Happy Hour as well!

This is such a fun place. We love the vibe here - lots of plants and cute decor. It’s set up like a large food hall/court with a variety of restaurants inside. There are two bars with crafted cocktails & two-levels of open seating. Pikes Peak Brewery is also connected to Coati. Definitely a fun place to check out!

Copperhead is the nightlife hotspot you have to experience. It is country music and line dancing on one side and hip-hop/pop on the other side. The best of both worlds for a nightclub. The bar is very eclectic packed wall to wall of vintage collectibles, signs and just completely random fun stuff to just admire. Definitely a place to check out if you are looking for a fun night out. They are only open Thursday, Friday and Saturday night during the week.
