C.B. & Potts

Vibe is chain brewery, but the huge bar is pretty cool to look at. They claim it's the biggest in the state for whatever that is worth. But even though it's got the chain feel, I don't really mind coming in this place. (super close to work)

Quality is pretty mediocre.

Service has been quite good every time I have visited. Like I said, this place is far from a destination, but it's right by my work, and I've always had very good service every time I've stopped by.

Selection is nothing special. About 8-10 with the standard lineup. (IPA, Pale, Porter, etc...)

Food is chain quality. Not terrible, but not great at all.

Overall? I enjoy coming here for happy hour because it's not only cheap, but also very close to work, and like I said the service tends to be very good.

 

 

This location is near the hotel I stay at when out in Englewood for business.

I hit this place on a Sunday evening and as I expected there was not a lot going on in terms of a crowd.

The wait staff was very attentive, sat in the bar area, so had some good sports as we are in hockey and NBA playoff time.

Food is typical sports bar food, maybe a bit better.I had some potato skins and some Buffalo chicken tenders.

They do a good job on their beers, lots of choices good brews

Will definitely be visiting again when in Englewood.

This location is only a couple of blocks from where I work, so it's convenient.
A couple of years ago, the local CB & Potts restaurants all upped their prices across the board by about 20-30% and attempted to have "higher end" foods, but luckily they've gotten back to what they do well - beer and simple/good food.
One complaint I have is that they no longer offer pint sized beers. They have 18oz and 24oz, and neither is cheap. However, their house brews are pretty solid. They have a hefeweizen (a real one), a blonde, a porter, an amber, an IPA, and a rye pale ale year round. While the blonde is pretty boring, the others are all pretty solid examples of their style. The porter in particular is excellent. They also typically have 1-2 seasonal beers available as well. This location has had several German seasonals over the years, and while they're "Americanized" a little, they are tasty. The Maibock is excellent this time of year. I've also had excellent examples of an Irish stout, Belgian pale, and even a blackberry porter. Of note, the other location to the south in Highlands Ranch also has an excellent variety of seasonals that can be a little more experimental, but are equally as good.
The food's typical grill/bistro faire, and they do a good job with it. Gone are the $12 appetizers and $15 burgers after that failed experiment. Burgers and sandwiches are excellent, grilled to order, and service is quick. For a burger and a beer, Pott's is honestly as good as anyone can want. Larger entrée items are also good, but they can be a little pricier. With Rock Bottom being relatively close, I think they probably have better full entrées, however Potts wins the burger battle. For appetizers, the Pott's chips topped with cheese and bacon make for a wonderful happy hour snack or starter.
There's not much to complain about with CB&Potts. I wish the prices were a little lower (even if they are better than before) and I'd love to see smaller beer sizes available. Still, Potts does what it's trying to do and does it well.

This is the 2nd C.B. & Potts i have visited and the 6th time visiting a Big Horn Brewing restaurant (C.B & Potts, Humperdink's, Big Horn are all essentially the same place on the inside). All of those restaurants are even laid out the same way- huge ceilings, lots of dark wood, tv's, huge bar with seating, kind of a sports bar meets giant tavern type of thing.

6 visits to these places was enough for me to get a good impression of what to expect. I have to say I've had pretty good food and service upon every visit, and i've visited during lunch, dinner, and late night occasions at 3 separate locations. Like Rock Bottom, i feel they are very consistent, and consistently good. Not so charming, but solid.

I have had their Blonde, the IPA, the Total Disorder Porter, the seasonal Belgian dubbel, and most recently their Oktoberfest Marzen. My favorite non-seasonal is the Total Disorder Porter. It is very rich and has an almost stout-like moouth feel with notes of coffee and dark chocolate. Everyone with whom i've dined there likes it as well!

I have to say that their Dubbel and their Oktoberfest were pretty good as well. The Dubbel was my favorite, very smooth, sweet, and malty with a fairly tasty Belgian yeast upfront. The Oktoberfest was also more of a sweet malty style (unlike Rocktoberfest at Rock Bottom, that tends to be drier). I recommend them!

I've had their pizza, sandwiches, salads, and fajitas. All of these were really good quality eats.

Each time the servers were also really nice. You can tell they are well trained and take customer service seriously. They might not always know a lot about the beer (server in Texas called the Dubbel a /doo-Belle'/ hahah) but if you have questions, they will find out the answers for you.

Check it out sometime, overall, pretty decent for a chain place! Also, sign up for their mailing list, you get a free burger valued at $8-10 just for signing up!

This establishment is in a 'ritzy' part of town, at least for me. The building is open as in a high ceiling, a good size patio (covered), two bars and lots of tables. I sat at the second bar, a rather curvey, enclosed bar to the right of middle of the business. A huge multi-screen tv wall sits in pure view of everything. This leads to a bit noisy atomosphere, and betrays itself as a sports bar, with some beers.
The beers were basic, ale, red ale, wheat ale, and a brown ale. Plus other macros. Nothing special to go out of your way.
Food is pricey and basic. Again, good, but nothing special.
Worth a stop to try their beers if you're in the area.
