Tarantula Billiards Bar & Grill

Two blocks from the Colorado Convention Center, this two-decade downtown fixture rounds out its billiards floor with foosball, shuffleboard, arcade games, and a four-person air hockey table. The room pairs hand-painted murals with a perimeter of large-screen TVs each broadcasting a different sport. Beyond beer, the full bar serves cocktails and classic food backed by a daily afternoon happy hour, keeping the spacious room grounded with an unpretentious mix of downtown workers and regulars.
