The service was amazing and so was the food! The bartender recommended a shot to us which was amazing! Live music and friendly people always set the vibe. If you're in Evergreen, definitely check this place out.

The Little Bear is now under new ownership and there has been a huge improvement in nearly everything including cleanliness, food quality, music and band, and customer service. Please disregard my previous review. Great job JR and the new ownership and staff. Thanks for bringing the Little Bear back!

Thank you Little Bear. I can't go to Casa Bonita since those cartoon guys bought it and 3 tacos cost $50 with a lottery to get in, but by God I can walk into the Little Bear and instantly be transported back to winter of 1980 and The Kamikazi Klones. This place is the real deal, and it has stayed that way. The food is decent, the staff does a good job. The sound guy is working hard to get it right. Thank you to the new owner for not Buffalo Rosing this place. Keep on trucking Little Bear!

We were in Denver for the weekend. An old friend (maybe I should say "longtime friend") picked us up and drove us uphill to Echo Lake, which was lovely. And on our way back down we came to The Little Bear Saloon. A friend of his was in a band playing there that night. There was a $10 cover, which is fine with me, it all goes to the band/bands. We got there at 7:30 and the band started at 7:30 so there wasn't any seating in the main room, where the band was playing (obviously this is common sense but it was how our schedule worked out). Don't worry, we got a booth in the next room and it was still plenty loud. Our server was great, funny, and made sure we had our needs met. The food: ok, it is not great food. My dining companions had burgers and pizza. I opted for a Greek salad as I had eaten an entire dish of pork belly at the Denver Zoo, I'll write that review separately, and I needed something that was not greasy. The salad, it wasn't a traditional Greek salad but I did definitely appreciate it. Since the rest of the menu is rather limited and mostly pizza and burgers, I didn't know if it would be good. I'm kind of picky about lettuce. It was good though and I ate every bite, and also a slice of my daughter's pizza. The food overall was not very special and I wouldn't recommend making a trip here just for the food. But since we hadn't made a special trip here for the food I'm not taking off any points for that! It's a fun environment; the bands, the maximalist decor, the signed photos from so, so many musicians and bands that have played there over the years. Plus nearly every inch of the wood has been carved with the initials or names or messages from customers. I spent some time looking but only scratched the surface (so to speak) of exploring it all. The women's bathroom was a little bizarre, and according to the guys in my group the men's was even stranger. Everything was clean and functional so that was good. We all had a great time. My daughter bought a sweatshirt. On the train back to Omaha the conductor smiled and said "oh, the Little Bear Saloon? That's in Evergreen, right? Oh, I know that place!" He chuckled. I'm going to bet that there are a lot of people who can chuckle at their memories of the Little Bear Saloon.

If you're looking for a historic saloon for a beer and shot this is your place! No fancy cocktails and foo foo drinks but cool history with a live music venue and bar food.

The service at the bar was good. There was an event with an intoxicated (not sure with what) patron in the middle of the afternoon. We were there to watch All Through The Night perform. You can see the history of this pub on the walls and doorframes and bathroom (try to not have to use it, too small). An amazing piece of history to be experiences. Look around the rooms and read the carvings.

New owners have a made a big difference. New chairs that don't fall apart, both stalls now work in the ladies room downstairs, and everything feels much cleaner. Had a burger and fries last weekend and both were great, would definitely order again. Nachos were meh and won't be trying them again. I'd love to see more variety in food moving forward.
