Retrograde brings the cosmic cocktail bar vibes to City Park West with drinks that actually deserve their Instagram moment. This is where Denver's wellness crowd goes when they want to get a little weird after sound bath Sunday. The space feels like a dreamy 70s fever dream - think velvet banquettes, moody lighting, and bartenders who know their way around both mezcal and mysticism. Their cocktail menu reads like tarot cards, with drinks named after planets and spiritual concepts that somehow taste as good as they sound. Perfect for those nights when you want something more elevated than your usual brewery hang but less pretentious than downtown hotel bars. The crowd skews creative professionals and spiritual-but-fun types who appreciate good design and even better drinks. Come for the aesthetic, stay for cocktails that prove Denver's bar scene has serious depth beyond craft beer.
