Views, inventive dishes and playful cocktails await visitors to Rare Bird, Denver’s newest rooftop bar on top of HALCYON, a hotel in Cherry Creek. Boasting panoramic Rocky Mountain vistas, Denver marks the second outpost of Rare Bird, following the 2018 opening of Rare Bird Nashville.

Executive Chef Daniel Young crafts American-inspired dishes like white cheddar truffle popcorn, beet hummus, Rare Bird wings with mango buffalo sauce and more. The beverage offerings are inspired by the sky-high environment, featuring libations like Firebird, with blanco tequila, grapefruit, spicy basil syrup, agave and soda.

 

“After witnessing the incredible response and success we’ve achieved with Rare Bird in Nashville, we knew it was time to introduce our rooftop experience to a new audience,” said Andres Jimenez, SVP of Food & Beverage, Makeready, the management company behind Rare Bird. “Denver, with its vibrant culture and thriving culinary scene, was a natural choice for our expansion and Halcyon provides the perfect backdrop for Rare Bird. We look forward to welcoming guests and sharing our specialty cocktails paired with even better views.”

The rooftop is open daily, 3–10 p.m., Monday to Thursday; 12–11 p.m., Friday and Saturday; and 12–8 p.m. on Sunday.

Study Shows More Millennials Are Cruising

A new study from Cruisebound shows more millennials are cruising, as the average age of cruisers trends downward. The study discovered the largest portion of cruisers are ages 25 to 44, making up 45 percent of all cruise bookers. Seniors, aged 55 and up, currently only account for 26 percent of cruise bookers. The platform theorizes this trend in younger cruisers is brought about by cruise lines’ increasing offering of family-friendly experiences and shorter cruises that can be enjoyed over a long weekend.
