You could stop here for dinner after a day of sightseeing around Manitou Springs & Garden of the Gods. Before the sun goes down, make sure you walk through the Historic Broadmoor Hotel and onto the grounds where they have lakes and beautiful trees/gardens. It's a perfect backdrop for photos.
You’ll feel transported right to jolly old England at the Golden Bee, The Broadmoor’s 19th century British Pub. The pub was actually transferred to The Broadmoor panel by panel, directly from the UK. While our Fish & Chips have stood the test of time, the new menu embraces some down-home favorites such as Colossal Pretzel Twist, Classic Reuben Sandwich, and Beer Steamed Mussels.
Enjoy nightly ragtime piano and wet your whistle with our extensive British Beer selection and yards of ale. Cheers!
Guests are also encouraged to participate in the cheerful atmosphere by joining the nightly Ragtime piano sing-along. It’s jolly good fun!

This is a neat place in downtown Colorado Springs-it looks like you're entering a subway station from the street and the bar/restaurant is underground. Quirky decor, stone walls make for a neat atmosphere. Service is great and the food is greater!
