It is with the deepest consideration and the heaviest of hearts that we announce the permanent closure of our beloved Irish Snug.

When you excitedly open your restaurant, you don’t typically think about the day you’ll close and March 6, 2022, would have made 18 years since we opened our doors. Unfortunately, the pandemic has proved to be too much for us between new variances of the virus, staffing shortages, and, most of all, rising supply costs.

As everyone knows a restaurant is nothing without its people. We are so grateful to have employed so many wonderful folks over the years, many of whom turned into regulars and will remain our friends.

Owning a restaurant truly is about the community you create, and we could not be more grateful for the one that adopted us as their second living room. We can’t express enough gratitude to all the loyal regulars and patrons that we have seen over the nearly 2 decades. A lot of really meaningful connections between people happened in our establishment and that makes us the proudest. We were truly excited to see the next generation of Snug goers a.k.a. “Snug Babies”…there’s a lot of them out there.

Just because this is the end for The Snug does not mean we aren’t truly excited for whoever is lucky enough to end up in 1201 E. Colfax. It truly is a historical and special spot and we are just so grateful that we got to be there for as many years as we did.

Thank you Colfax, Thank you Capitol Hill, and
Thank you Denver… we hope you will miss us as much as we are going to miss you!

Super cool … kind of reminds me of the train station in Amsterdam

This is what Union station originally looked like in 1881.
