It’s hard to believe the 1400 Stout Street space that now houses Stout Street Social was an empty cement bunker owned by the hotel next door. But such a prime piece of property – directly across from the Colorado Convention Center and one block from The Denver Center for the Performing Arts, could not stay vacant forever.
Enter longtime restaurateur Frank Day and his Concept Restaurants crew who have carved out a stunning bar and restaurant to serve hotel guests, conventioneers, theatergoers and Denver diners with no particular agenda.
The restaurant’s centerpiece, the horseshoe shaped “race track bar” is among the largest in downtown Denver. The seated bar space with high top tables and booths features TVs and a glass garage door that will spill onto the 30-seat patio when the weather’s right.
Sippers and snackers who visit Stout Street can take selfies or food and drink pics and post them in real time using #stoutstreetsocial on two big screens in the bar. The proper dining room, sans TVs, offers a more intimate setting.
Stout Street Social’s scene is more than 40 beers on tap, five varieties of sake and an extensive list of wines by the glass. There’s a killer happy hour with $4 martinis, $3 beers and $4, $5 and $6 glasses of wine.
Food features include the oyster and raw bar, sushi chef, prime rib plate on the happy hour menu for $9.95, deviled eggs, crispy brussels sprouts along with a three course theater menu for $28.95 per person including discounted $7 valet. Valet at lunch is free and $7 with validation at all other times.
Hours are 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. for lunch and 3 to 6 p.m. happy hour Monday through Friday; 5 to 10 p.m. Monday through Thursday and Sunday and 5 to 11 p.m. Friday and Saturday. More information at www.stoutstsocial.com.
