Rude, unprofessional front desk staff. Maybe they need to be educated how to talk to people.

A classy way to spice up your night. This place was a blast. If you like a little ham in your acting or your tongue to be pressed this is your cheek this is your place. Wait staff was great, and The vibe was fun. VIP ticket was interesting. You get a front row seat and they pull you up on stage in a group and have you do some silly stuff. Very rocky horror show if that means anything to you. It was fun.

Went with some girlfriends to the Aerial Assault show, with little to no knowledge of the place or what I was expecting. I would have never known this place existed! You go downstairs into a ecclectic seating area with a little stage. Its an old building with charm. We each ordered a drink; all were very strong pours, perhaps a little too much, but I cant complain too much. The she was entertaining and the host was a doll. It was a unique and fun experience, I would love to go to other events here in the future.

The Clocktower Cabaret recently hosted our wedding ceremony and reception. The space is intimate and intricately decorated, which fit into our theme perfectly. The staff was friendly, accommodating and professional.They went the extra mile to make our special day perfect by dressing up to match our theme. They offer an amazing wine list and fabulous custom crafted cocktails. I would highly recommend this venue for any private party or event.

The women are empowering! The atmosphere is fun and exciting! Everyone is professional as well as friendly! So incredibly entertaining! I even learned something about famous women in history that I had never even heard about before!!

We attended the late night Off the Clock show and it was extremely fun and amazing. We took the VIP tickets and they called the brides to be in our group on the stage. It was a very memorable experience. The performances were very praiseworthy. But the staff did not seem very accomodating. We had 2 brides to be in our group but they did not allow more than 1 person from any group to go on stage. The lady at the counter did not agree until we paid money equivalent to 1 extra VIP ticket. The seats we got were behind a pole and we requested them to change that but they did not agree for that either. We had to ourselves move our tables and chairs to get a better view of the stage.

Went to see Clue: A Strip Search for our anniversary. It was great! The actors were hilarious and so friendly. The show was so fun. And the drinks were actually decently priced.

One of Denvers greatest hidden treasures! We recently saw the Off the Clock Burlesque/Comedy show and had a blast. The musical opener (Adam Goldstein of Irish Folk band Avourneen) did a great job getting the crowd warmed up and rowdy. Up next was the MC of the night, who was the perfect mix of flamboyant and funny - and was as skilled in his own routine as he was in doing hilarious spontaneous crowd work. All of the dancers were super talented and titillating. This particular night featured a lot of aerial acts, which were all impressive. Im amazed this place doesnt have hundreds of reviews. Go support local theater!

Celebrated my sisters birthday here last night and was so impressed. The service was great. Members of our party needed accessible seating and the staff made it easy to be seated and served. The show was energetic and hilarious. I recommend this experience to anyone looking to enjoy great service, good drinks and beautiful burlesque.

Although the performers were decent, this was a horrible show because the hostess was awful. Too much cellulite. Too chunky. No class. Nothing sexy about her. Bartender was rude. I do not recommend this place.

This venue is fantastic! My husband and I came from out of town to see a burlesque & comedy show and it was entertaining and the performers where phenomenal! The atmosphere is also very interesting and sets the mood perfectly. The staff were extremely friendly and attentive, we had the best experience here. Highly recommend & we’ll be back!

This is literally the coolest room in town! We have so enjoyed all our work with this venue the past 7 years. The staff is warm and friendly, and they have awesome cocktails and desserts. The Clocktower always brings in unique and eclectic shows, and is one of the last remaining clubs offering quality variety entertainment one could envision from the days of Vaudeville.

Review №28

My friend and I got last minute tickets to the Saturday night burlesque show. Since we were last minute we were placed directly behind a pole in which the dancers all performed. The front desk lady said the dancers moved around a lot so it wouldn’t be a problem and that wasn’t the case. I also asked if I could get a discounted price for having such a horrible seat and she said that wasn’t an option either. The show was supposed to last 90 minutes and with only 8 dances it ended at 12:30 not 1. We began at 11:30. The host of the show of course had to throw in a ton of poltical bash on how horrible the president and horrible this country is. For $35 you would expect to have reasonable seating to see the show, performers actually performing the appropriate length of the show and a host that has some real humor. Save your money!!

VIP seating right up front at the stage was too close. Performers in the The Great Podcast of 1939, although billed as professional voice actors, came off as amateurish, like the cast could have been plucked randomly from the audience and told to read some lines from a script. I could not bear the show for too long and left prior to intermission. I did enjoy the Chocolate Toffee Kahlua Mousse Cake, though.Edit: I did wind up changing seats with the help of the staff, but the show was still just not up to par.

I’ve been to this establishment many times and had a fabulous time. I’m writing this review because the rudeness of the waitstaff literally left me speechless. Unfortunately I won’t be back. A word to management people pay good money to come see the shows at your establishment. Hire better waitresses.

Had a great time for a night out with girlfriends. Loved the variety of dancers....different types of dance, from different time periods and even different cultures. We also REALLY appreciated that there was a wide ranges of bodies that were celebrated through these performances. Women are beautiful creatures and you guys really showcased that. Pierre was hilarious and really got the crowd into it! Will be coming back again!

Small and intimate, the clock tower cabaret is always fun. Be sure to buy your tickets as far in advance as you can as seating is based on first come, first served. They seat by the order in which tickets were purchased - not by the time you get to the venue.everyone there is great - never had a bad experience

The show was phenomenal. We came for a bachelor party and had a blast. I felt so immersed and the eye contact from all of the performers kept my heart racing. I recommend this to anyone looking for a great time. The emcee was so awesome and funny! I was completely jealous i didnt get a motorboat! :P

Denver native here, I have always wanted to check this place out. Had friends come into Denver from out of town and immediately purchased tickets for an 8pm Saturday show. When my guests travel arrangements changed and we wouldnt be able to attend, I was told clocktower cabaret did not issue refunds for specialty shows. I wasnt aware I had booked a specialty show, but I do wish Id have known that before wasting the money.I will probably skip checking this place out now.

This is mainly a review for the front desk attendant (Conner) who went out of his way to be nasty, unhelpful and rude to our party.Heres the story: we were a group of 6 girls; 4 had no problems getting in, however, two of the people in our group booked tickets together and accidentally booked for a date in November. Since the evening was sold out, Conner informed us that we would need to wait until 15 min after the show began to see who hadnt arrived and then if there were still two spots available we could pay $20 to have our tickets transferred to the correct date. While we were waiting we witnessed a gentleman come to Conners desk and purchase a ticket for the nights show. When I asked Conner as to why he allowed the gentleman to purchase the ticket, he first told me it was a long story and to go sit down and come back when there was no one in line. Once the two people in line were gone, I inquired again and he said the receptionist informed the man he was able to purchase a ticket and it was a mistake he was allowed. I then told him it didnt really seem like there were many rules as to the sold out aspect of the show and asked if I could purchase 2 tickets instead of waiting :30 for the no-shows. Conner said absolutely not.When it came close to time to see how many people had not showed up, we asked if he could tell us about how many people still needed to arrive and he told us no, because that would mean hed have to count ALL the un-highlighted names on the sheet. I quickly counted, there were 8. Counting to 8 doesnt really seem like something that extremely difficult to me... but I guess to Conner its a hassle. (There was no one in line when I asked this by the way)Finally our time came to be able to pay $20 to transfer our tickets as some people still hadnt shown up - my friend hands Conner a $20 bill and he tells us he cannot accept it and must take a credit card. So she hands him her credit card and instead of running it, he WRITES DOWN HER CREDIT CARD NUMBER!! He then tells us hes unable to run credit cards until Sunday, so he has to hold on to her number until then. After the show we stuck around to ask a manager if that is actually what was happening with the CC # and he said he would put it in the safe and destroy it the next day.The show was pretty good, some acts were outdated (Monica Lewinsky) and cheap but it was cute for what it was. Wouldnt go back though, mainly due to Conner and his terrible attitude. Everyone else was lovely and accommodating.

The drunken bachelors were hilarious!!! Great time. Would definitely do it again. Our service was outstanding too. Even though she was extremely busy with a large party of 10 + she made us feel like we were her top priority.

Small intimate theater with a focus on cabaret and sideshow style acts. Drinks and service are great but youll pay for it with an average cocktail price of $10. Complementary coat check is a nice touch.

Review №46

Went to the Clock Tower Cabaret for the Bourlesque Show and it was very dissapointing. The venue is very nice, well decorated and good service; however, the Master of Ceremony used unnecessary foul language from the very start of the night. Cheap comments, amateur performers and too much time waisted between each presentation. At $35.00 p/p is way overpriced for what they offer. Do not recommend.

Review №48

Do not subject your bachelor (or bachelorette) to this show. The women are quite chunky to be taking it all off and the amount of cellulite on the stage is overwhelming. While Naughty Pierre is somewhat entertaining, the juggler and screwdriver up the nose guy were just weird and not entertaining at all. Much too long a show to subject your audience to. The specialty nights may be better, but the weekly Naughty Pierre night is not worth your time.

Drinks were okay, a little too strong for me. Show started late and was entertaining but a little awkward / some jokes were uncomfortable. Waitress was slow but friendly, and food wasnt much to choose from but delicious! Still debating if I will go back and try out another show! Overall not too bad!

Review №53

My husband and I attended the late burlesque show on Saturday night and we were very disappointment with the entire show. We have attended a few shows in Vegas, and in comparison this was very cheesy and classless. The VIP tables are a joke, giving us the plastic hat and plastic tiara. Our waitress was not friendly and we did not enjoy the MCs dialogue. We actually left before the show was over.

Ive been to the Friday show here three times now- the staff is great, the show is better, and the intimate setting for live theatre is lovely. This a great date or group option, and for $20 tickets, totally doable on a budget.

A group of friends and I went to the Winter Burlescapades show, which was great and very entertaining. However, the servers were horrible, had bad attitudes, and werent willing to ask a heavily intoxicated couple in front of us to lower their voice so that everyone else around them could enjoy the show, even after we had asked them several times. Completely ruined the experience and desire to go back.

I always have a blast when I come here. Its a small space but it allows for some very intimate and fun nights. The staff is very friendly and the food and drinks are good. The only down side is that sometimes it can get crowed and seating can be a little cramped.

I have only been to the burlesque there, never to any of Lannies shows, but as per what I have seen, their AMAZING! I have been to a few shows now and there are always new acts, the performers are really creative, seductive, and funny. I really like their themed shows like Boolesque but, I went to a regular show for a Bachlorette party and it was a blast. They brought the bride up on stage and had her do a lil show. Drinks and staff are always on par for most places on 16th street. Ill continue to go for sure...
