The burgers are great and the beer selection is awesome. The bar tenders are pretty relaxed and they even accepted my foreign ID. This place has a great atmosphere! Perfect to hang out.
RobAugust 30, 2016Count on college style grease bombs, but a perfect stop on any hill tour in Boulder. Great wings, pizza, burgers, and a terrific slate of rotating taps and bottles
Lee Ann WilliamsNovember 12, 2017This is such a cool college place. I had the Texas Onion Straw with sweet potato fries. It was so yummy! The burger was cooked to perfection the toasting of the bun added to the beauty of this burger!
Jonathan ZupnikDecember 4, 2014Going with the BUFF wings and bacon wrapped jalapeños to start, check out the specials this week has smoked bbq ribs and a stuffed burger - went with the stuffed burger!
- Rosa Elena VelezAugust 13, 2016Portobello burger, markets salad is awsome, afrodita salad is great, and POTUS pizza is really fantastic! This last was recommended by president Obama.

Christopher RJune 8, 2021Interesting location with a great variety of burgers. Mine was cooked through and came out a bit dry. Very good fries!
Jesse CallJuly 5, 2013Always a fun trip to The Sink. Burgers are good, pizzas are all good -- next time I think I'm gonna try the Portabella mushroom sandwich. Also, check out Obama's signature on the front wall!
Guy TortoriciAugust 19, 2014Very fun spot for a meal. A tad loud so you will need to compete with the next table if you are wanting to hold a conversation. Other than that the burgers rock and so does he wait staff
Christy SagerAugust 16, 2017This mac and cheese was the most unbelievable beautiful thing I've ever eaten. The whole table agreed.
Andy FrancoOctober 17, 2016Tried the P.O.T.U.S. pizza. It was pretty good but my friend got the bubble guts. Thanks Obama!
Cooper SmithJune 7, 2012This place was cool before Obama visited. Order the Sink Burger, follow it up with some tasty microbrews, and then find a spot on the wall to sign your name.
The iconic college bar in Boulder. Great food and cold beer.

Karen DilleJune 18, 2019Cool vibe, interesting menu. Very suited to college age/twenty somethings. Sink sauce is yummy! And Obama. 😉
Brett MorrisAugust 10, 2013Stop what you're doing and order the peach and blueberry cobbler special. No, seriously though, put your phone away and order three of them.

Natalia Muñoz CarpinteroDecember 17, 2011Vegans: build your burger with tofu or chipotle bean burger and guacamole. Add steamed vegetables or fries as a side!!
SquivyApril 1, 2013Texas Onion Straw burger was the bomb! The jalapenos along with the chipotle aoili make for a nice kick!

Try the Buddha Basil Pizza - Yum! Filled with crazy amounts of garlic. Don't eat it alone!
Always check the specials board because the chefs here come up with some great stuff. The Sink also has great catering.

"This place is awesome! Basically what I like about it is that I get in for free and people there buy me things to eat. I cannot afford much due to my drug habit, but this makes people work for me."
