Valentine’s Day is cute and all — but Galentine’s Day is where the real love lives. Whether your group leans brunch-and-bubbly, cocktails-and-dancing, or cozy wellness hangs, Denver is showing up for the girls. From pink-hued parties to rooftop toasts and themed prix-fixe menus, here’s how to celebrate your ride-or-dies in style.
Brunch Girls
Who loves: reservations, daylight cocktails, chic fits, and turning brunch into an all-day affair.
What to Wear: Tailored mini or wide-leg trousers, ballet flats or low heels, with sunglasses that stay on all day
Le Bilboquet – Cherry Creek
Vibe: French-girl elegance, espresso martinis, impeccable people-watching
This Cherry Creek favorite is basically made for Galentine’s. Think croissants, steak frites, rosé flowing before noon, and outfits that deserve a sidewalk strut. Perfect for a long brunch that accidentally turns into an all-day affair.
Milk Market – LoDo
Vibe: Casual-cool, food-hopping, bottomless energy
For the friend group that can’t commit to one cuisine, Milk Market is the move. Bounce between brunch bites, cocktails, and dessert — all under one roof. Bonus: plenty of space for big groups and spontaneous photo ops.
Pasque at Populus – Downtown
Vibe: Refined brunch, experiential luxury, friendship keepsakes
Pasque is hosting a Galentine’s brunch with a permanent jewelry activation by PinkPearlDenver on February 14–15. Expect beautifully plated dishes, celebratory sips, and a forever bracelet moment you’ll actually want to keep.
Party Girls
Who loves: themed cocktails, DJs, pink décor, and a packed camera roll by midnight.
What to Wear: Pink or red mini dress (or matching looks), platform heels or boots with Glossy makeup, bold accessories
Wonderyard – Downtown
Vibe: Campy fun, pop nostalgia, craft-meets-cocktails
Wonderyard is delivering two Galentine’s-friendly events:
- Galentine’s Music Bingo (Feb 13): Free-to-play pop hits and themed cocktails
- “Bottles & Brushes”: Decorate wine bottles while watching a rom-com — the dream
(Both are playful, social, and ideal for groups who want fun without committing to a full night out).
ViewHouse (LoDo + Centennial)
Vibe: High-energy, themed cocktails, party brunch
ViewHouse always leans all the way in — themed décor, specialty drinks, DJs, and big “girls’ day out” energy. Expect pink cocktails, selfie moments, and a crowd ready to celebrate friendship loudly.
Church & Union – LoDo
Vibe: Elevated cocktails, flirty pop-up energy, girls’-night glam
Church & Union is going full romance-mode with a Valentine’s pop-up bar, complete with themed cocktails, luxe décor, and elevated bites. It’s polished but still playful — ideal for a pre-dinner meetup or a chic nightcap with your core crew.
Happy Camper – LoHi
Vibe: Campy-cute, flirty, party-forward
Happy Camper is basically Galentine’s HQ. With themed drinks, playful décor, and nonstop energy, it’s ideal for the friend group that treats Galentine’s like a full-on holiday.
Lady Jane – LoHi
Vibe: Moody, romantic, upscale girls’ night
For a more sultry Galentine’s vibe, Lady Jane delivers velvet seating, candlelight, and expertly crafted cocktails. Ideal for intimate toasts, deep chats, and very chic Instagram Stories.
The Family Jones Spirit House – Highlands
Vibe: Craft cocktails, intimate, elevated cool
Perfect for the group that loves tasting menus and spirits with a story. Cozy up, sip something seasonal, and celebrate friendship with intention (and really good drinks).
Wellness Girls
Who loves: slow mornings, cozy layers, supporting local, and plans that don’t involve a hangover.
What to Wear: Matching lounge or athleisure sets, cozy layers you won’t want to take off with clean sneakers or slides
The Now Massage – RiNo
Vibe: Calm, restorative, self-care first
For the friend group choosing peace over prosecco, book massages or wellness treatments and follow it up with coffee or smoothies nearby. Low-key, luxe, and deeply appreciated.
Nurture – Denver
Vibe: Community-forward, cozy, wellness girl energy
Nurture is hosting a free Galentine’s event featuring local vendors, coffee, and dogs (yes, dogs). This is the perfect plan for the friend group that loves supporting small businesses and starting the day slow and intentional.
