I have been coming to this place for over 20 years. When I was a baby gay, in my 30s and very once in a blue moon in my 40s to support. Got to hand it to the owner, Jody, as she has kept one of the only 10 lesbian bars in the US of A afloat. Thank you Jody for the safe space and place I can always walk into and you greet me with a hug and warm welcome. Make Blush and Blu a must see stop on your next trip to Denver. You won't regret it. Also, Quinn. The newest bartender makes the meanest old fashion I have ever had. Fire. xoxo Blush and Blu loyal fan. Cheers, be safe everyone and love hard

I stopped in early afternoon, quite time. 10 people at the bar. This place is totally switched on for me. Welcomed warmly by the owner, bar tender and patrons. Wonderful place to be yourself and just enjoy your time. I was in a hurry, so I didn't have food. I feel the service would be great by the reception when I walked in. I would be back when I am in town next time.

Amazing atmosphere. Very friendly and helpful. The owner Jody is so welcoming. Food is delivered from the sushi place next door and it was a great experience too. This was my first stop on a pub crawl and was feeling a little awkward but they were perfect.

Shoutout Jody (or Jodi) for creating a space for queer women. As someone from the San Francisco Bay Area, I am always looking for a place that’s safe, welcoming, and also a vibe. Blush & Blu is this place. Stop by for a drink or 2, shoot some pool, or catch some karaoke on Thursday. Places like this makes me wish I lived in Denver. Cheers

We were in town visiting from Chicago and cannot say enough good things about this place! Immediate immaculate vibes on walking in. Patrons were friendly and everyone working was helpful and kind. We felt comfortable and at home. We tried the Gina and Tina cocktail and it did not disappoint. Jody completely crushed it DJing the evening! It was a perfect night. We will be back again any time we are in Denver! Highly recommend.

I've been meaning to come to this place for a while. Recently, I completed my transition to womanhood, and I wanted to stop in and check it out.. Got to sit down with Jody (with a "Y"), the owner of the bar.. VERY kind person!!! Although due to my schedule right now, an evening trip isn't an option, I do intend to go check them out at night!! They have several nights of the week where they will have an open mic, for music, poetry, comedy, what have you, and another night for Kareoki!! Can't wait to get there at night!! Seems like a good place to find some support and friends!!! Thanks Jody!!!

I'm an autistic queer person who just moved to Colorado from a small town in California. Finding queer people back in CA as an autistic adult was very difficult (but not impossible), and I'm sure it will still be here too. I went to this bar by myself this past weekend in a moment where I just needed to be around queer people, and the performance that night did not disappoint in soothing the ache I had to add around people like me. Performers looked like they were genuinely having fun and I felt like I was a part of it with their engagement. I think the owner was there too, I'm not one to approach people but it was heartwarming to be in such a close knit environment. I hope I'm able to make friends out here in time so we can enjoy this establishment's atmosphere and events. I'll definitely be going back even if by myself, for now.

Alex and Jack were lovely bartenders. It felt so nice to be in a queer space. Very welcoming and engaging conversation 🙂
