"Excellent bar and restaurant for some tasty chicken meals. Our service was a little spotty but in general it was a nice experience. We tried both the hot chicken and the white chicken, both were great. The highlight was our Brussels sprouts appetizer which was perfectly crispy and savory with a unique fluffy aoli. Bread pudding capped off the meal in just the right way."

Food was great however the service was intermittent at best. My group met around 12 on a Sunday and we waited about 25 minutes for 4 dishes.

When I dine at establishments as exceptional as this one, I come to the realization that I have been too lenient with my ratings for other restaurants. This place deserves a 5+!

I had a wonderful experience at this restaurant. They offer an impressive selection of bourbon, and the staff is very friendly and knowledgeable about it. The food is great as well!

Watson’s is awesome! Sam does a phenomenal job! The food is good, the bourbon selection is top notch. Such a great atmosphere of people! If you are not apart of the Watson’s community, you are missing out! View menu

This is one of the top spots for dining and drinking in CU. Both the food and service are exceptional. However, the real highlight is their whiskey program! Sam and his team host fantastic and well-organized events. I can’t recommend them and their whiskey program highly enough!

I hunted some waffles and chickens. Watson is absolutely delivered! I went tender with the white meat and added a bit of the hot chicken wort mixture after the syrup. Everything was perfect. The Belgian waffle was fluffy and tasty, the chicken was juicy with a very satisfying kiss. Loved every bite!

WOW! My son recommended trying this new (to us)food truck This food is too delicious. This had to be the most satisfyingly hitting-the-spot meal I've had in years. Yall had me loving foods I generally avoid. I'm not much of a meat eater, I am one for this place. I will only eat chicken from here now. View menu

Awesome gumbo and pretty good old fashioned and Manhattan. Service was ok considering how busy it was. We were told to sit at the bar and our table would be ready in 20-25 minutes. Several groups came in after us and got seated and we never did get a table, even though the line tracker said we were still in line. Overall still a positive experience though.

The ultimate bourbon experience! These guys have a top notch selection of your favorite bourbons and host different events throughout the year. The most recent event included a delicious food spread, hard to find pours, very fair chances at taking home highly sought after bottles and the staff always goes above and beyond to make sure your experience is a good one.
