The Corner Bar

The Corner Bar sits inside the historic Hotel Boulderado at 13th and Spruce, a downtown Boulder gathering spot with the kind of anchored, neighborhood-hangout feel that comes from being part of a landmark hotel. Live music takes over the outdoor space on Sunday afternoons during the warmer months, favoring an acoustic and jazz format that fits the daytime, drink-in-hand mood. The programming is a smaller part of the calendar than at some music-focused rooms, which makes the Sunday sessions feel like a distinct scene rather than another show. For guests, it is an easygoing weekend stop for a cocktail and some live music downtown.
