The Glenn

Oh Glenn,

You marvelous little diamond in the rough you...

So I live 4 blocks from this place and just recently noticed it's existence. Great service, great drink specials, phenomenal right-size portioned meals and local atmosphere. If you get the chance swing on by and get a Glenn drink token during happy hour. (Try the Spicy Turkey,) sounds stupid I know, but blew my mind.

This place doesn't disappoint.

OH YEAH!  I am LOVING The Glenn!  I grew up in Thornton/Northglenn and remember as a teenager how I felt like I was in a restaurant chain hell.  The Glenn offers a British pub style environment (wood booths/bar) and a really tasty menu with good prices.  

Another thing I like about The Glenn is that they have karaoke, trivia, and live music nights.  It really helps not having to drive all the way to Denver to find entertainment!  

Keep it up, guys!  You've found a loyal customer!

Good stuff!
I've been there to see Trainwreck a few times now. Always a great show! I've only sat on the patio and had drinks, apps, and dinner, never inside. Indoors seems pretty nice though, walking through.

While their beef is not grass fed, they state that it is fresh ground by a small local producer. A step in the right direction! The burgers are quite tasty. Good sweet potato fries. I like the fish and chips too. The green chili dip is not spicy at all, and it is quite cheesy. It's a bit wetter than some, not as thick and gooey as you might expect. Good flavor, just not what I expected. They could use a stronger/thicker tortilla chip that would hold up better to being dipped.

Drinks are good. It's more of a beer place than mixed drinks. The first gin and tonic was better than subsequent. Different bartenders maybe...very different pours. Service is friendly but at times a little slow. I think they need to staff up a bit more for popular band events.

Plenty of people bring their kids, even for the loud music. It is fairly family friendly, although there were some smokers later on in the evening.

I like The Glenn, I'll have to go for lunch or something another time, even when Trainwreck is not playing. They're awesome though!
