Eric's Bar

Has some fun times here while in Aspen.. 3 levels. The bar starts off quiet and turns more busy and club like as the night goes on. Theres a whole pool hall on 2nd level and cool cigar bar. They also own the restaurant downstairs. Friendly staff and funny bear stories.. That's bear not beer.

Me and my girlfriend had the time of our lives here!! This place has everything you could ask for. We started the night in the cigar bar which was spacious with great staff, comfortable seating with a decor that made you feel like a smooth cigar aficianado : ) We had a couple of cigars and two drinks which relaxed us completely. The crowd was mixed but mainly late 20s to early thirtys with some older folks as well like the 50 something couple that sat by us after we got up. We walked through the pool room which was unfortunately packed by the time we finished our cigars so I skipped that. I love pool and from what I saw the tables were all in great condition and would estimate there were anywhere form 10 to 15 tables so its a legit pool hall. We ended up grabbing a nice corner seat in the bar/lounge where we danced to the music the rest of the night. We didnt mix with the crowd and really just danced and drinked by ourselves by our seats. The atmosphere was actually romantic as the seats were very cushy and packed with pillows. Nice outside area with a huge enclosed flame as an outside heater. The vibe was cool, the barenders were extremely attentive and helpful as well as the wait staff in the cigar bar. Had no issues with the crowd that was there, which was a Friday night. I would definitely go back and can see having a great night again.

Hi  Eric - your bartender Jordan was quite a disappointment. We ordered shots and we received grapefruit juice. We confronted jordan, the genius "mixologist" behind the juice box/virgin shots and recieved some of the WORST customer service.  
He proceeded to patronize us and tell us that  was what we ordered! We politely corrected him and said we would never order $7 juice shots! We requested that he try again and hoped that he wouldn't disappoint, but sadly he did :( he proceeded by making shots that we requested (for the second time) and then  taunted them infront of us right before he  took them away and tossed them out. A normal and skilled bartender would have taken care of their customers. Not to mention, the worst waitress is the Rocky Mountains. She messed up our makers/water order twice and didn't know what an itemized receipt was. While you might want to go to this bar for a drink, you would probably be better off going down the street to the shell station and ordering boones farm. The customer service will be better and you know what you will be paying for. Cheers!
