  • Neighbourhood gem
“One of Colorado's 10 most iconic, historic restaurants and a Must Eat” Denver Post, July 2018
Please join us at 740 Front in Historic Downtown Louisville. Designated historical, 740 is one of Colorado's two oldest remaining saloons; transformed back to its 1904 roots; a traditional American dining saloon with a turn of the century ambiance featuring a magnificent room dominating bar, built in 1880 by the Brunswick Company,. The copper spit trough, once equipped with running water, still exists at the front of the bar. Louisville, notorious for its drinking, gambling, and illegal activities, evidence of the occasional misunderstanding is the .22 caliber bullet hole in the front bar.
The bar offers a selection of craft beers, wines,  handcrafted cocktails and an extensive craft bourbon selection.
Dinner Tue. thru Sat. From casual to fine dining.
"Something for everyone" with "Steaks not well done but done well"

    This is the first time I have eaten here, and I was so impressed! The food was delicious! We started with the baked oyster special with asiago cheese which was amazing! We also shared the wedge salad and the Snake River Farms steak special. Everything was so good!

    Favorite place on the planet. This is a my very own Cheers bar (but far more elegant!) and with a fabulous dining experience attached! Can’t recommend it highly enough

    We always enjoy our evenings at 7:40 front. The new addition of Seabass was a wonderful addition.

    Lively Friday night atmosphere and attentive service. Delicious fresh Boston lettuce house salad with excellent vinaigrette. Nice seafood-packed cannelloni with smooth saffron sauce. Fabulous steamed mussels in tomato wine broth and hearty bread for dipping. Seems like all the dishes are excellent.

    Our food was well-prepared and the portion were appropriate. Prices have gone up significantly over the years -- it's more of a special occasion place now.

    Beautiful room, dominated by the magnificent old bar. Lots of good food to choose from. Service was between slow and very slow which degraded our experience.
