About this venue

Editor's Take: Matchbox is the antidote to the glitz of RiNo. Housed in a historic space, this bar keeps it simple: good drinks, good music, and good vibes. It's a place where the local art community gathers to play bocce and enjoy a $4 draft beer. A true urban watering hole.

Matchbox is a relaxed, industrial-style bar in Denver's RiNo district, offering a wide craft beer selection, a casual atmosphere, and an outdoor area with a bocce ball court.
