It's a 105-year-old former church, and you can tell the whole time you're in there - stained glass, a hand-painted vaulted ceiling, the kind of room that makes you lower your voice on instinct. It's first and foremost a restaurant (a modern-American concept with a Bravo alumnus on the kitchen side), but the bar is real and it's worth sitting at: a short list of cocktails that actually reads like a bartender made them, with the CU Old Fashioned on barrel-proof bourbon at $27 being the obvious flex, and a dollar from every cocktail going to a local workforce program, which I don't think I've seen a bar do.
We went at dinner, ordered the Le Vitrail for the table, and spent the last hour at the bar watching the room. The crowd is upscale-casual, well-dressed, on the older side, and nobody was checking their phone more than necessary. It's the expensive end of town, and it shows in the glass and the pace. If you're there for the food, great. If you're there just for the room and a good bourbon cocktail, you're also doing fine.
