Sip. Play. Conquer.

Play A While

Rook is for the sharp-minded, the quick-witted, and the effortlessly mischievous. Our rooftop deck features a mix of sun-soaked spots and shaded patio space, with outdoor pool tables perfect for late-night games and strong drinks.

Inside, you'll find a cozy hangout stocked with board games, perfect for laid-back afternoons or late-night laughs, whether you're escaping the summer heat or enjoying a cold Colorado evening.

Here, debates are won over cocktails, victories toasted with highballs, and the best blows land with clever comebacks, not fists. No stats, no replays, just bold moves, great drinks, and a scene that always keeps you coming back.

Where Everyone Knows Your Game

Think of it as the gathering spot for those who crave friendly rivalry with a side of fun. Perched above Catbird Hotel in RiNo, we host everything from game tournament nights and Beat the Bartender challenges to “pool” parties (billiards, not bikinis). It’s where strategy meets spontaneity, jokes fly faster than dice, and the only thing sharper than your gameplay is your wit.
