Denver’s Only Indian Happy Hour

Most people do not associate Indian restaurants with happy hour — but at SPICE ROOM’s Bluebird District location on East Colfax, we have built one of Denver’s most unique after-work experiences. Every Monday through Friday, 3 PM to 6 PM, enjoy discounted craft cocktails, Indian beers, and shareable appetizers in a warm, vibrant atmosphere.

Whether you are coming from work, heading to a show at the Bluebird Theater next door, or just looking for something different from the usual brewery crawl, our Indian happy hour is worth the trip.

Happy Hour Drink Specials

Signature Cocktails

Our bartenders blend Indian flavors with classic cocktail technique:

Chai Espresso Martini — House-brewed masala chai meets cold brew espresso, shaken with vodka and a cardamom rim. Warming, caffeinated, and dangerously smooth.
Tamarind Margarita — Tangy tamarind pulp, fresh lime, tequila, and a chili-salt rim. Sweet, sour, and spicy in one sip.
Mango Mojito — Alphonso mango puree, fresh mint, rum, and soda. Tropical and refreshing.
Turmeric Gin & Tonic — London dry gin infused with fresh turmeric, tonic, and a lime wheel. Earthy and elegant.

Beer & Wine

Kingfisher Premium Lager — India’s most popular beer, crisp and clean
Taj Mahal Premium Lager — A classic pairing with spicy food
Rotating Colorado Craft Beers — We always have 2-3 local options on tap
House red and white wines at happy hour pricing

Happy Hour Food Menu

Pair your drinks with some of our best shareable plates — all at special pricing during happy hour:

Chicken Tikka — Tandoori-marinated chicken skewers, smoky and tender
Vegetable Samosas — Crispy pastry stuffed with spiced potatoes and peas
Paneer Tikka — Grilled cottage cheese with bell peppers and onions
Chili Momos — Our famous Himalayan dumplings tossed in spicy chili sauce
Papadum & Chutneys — Crispy lentil wafers with mint, tamarind, and mango chutneys

Why SPICE ROOM’s Happy Hour Is Different

It Is Actually Affordable

Happy hour pricing means $2-4 off cocktails and $3-5 off appetizer plates. You can enjoy two cocktails and a samosa plate for under $25.

The Flavors Are Unmatched

Where else in Denver can you get a tamarind margarita paired with tandoori chicken skewers? Indian flavors bring complexity and warmth that standard bar fare simply cannot match.

Perfect Pre-Show Dining

We are right next to the Bluebird Theater — one of Denver’s most iconic live music venues. Grab happy hour before the show and skip the overpriced venue drinks.

Full Dinner Menu Available Too

If happy hour turns into dinner (it often does), our full menu is available. Transition from appetizers to butter chicken, biryani, or a thali platter without changing venues.
