New Sports Lounge to be South Broadway Hangout

South Broadway is about to welcome a new favorite spot with the opening of Joe Willy’s, a nostalgic sports lounge. The venue is prepping to open at the address 1310 South Broadway, according to the emerging concept’s website.

Promising classic American bar favorites, the lounge will have a full bar and a menu centered around its signature Smashburger and Midwestern Tavern Style pizza, along with other favorites like appetizers, salads, and sandwiches with an Italian/Chicago flair, co-owner and GM Ryan Fleming told What Now Denver.

Ryan and business partner Matt Fleming are completely transforming the old Pasquini’s restaurant into a vibrant space perfect for food, drinks, and sports. The space has two floors, with a full bar on each. Fleming said the upper level is a great place to host parties and events.

Final inspections will be happening soon, and pending those approvals, the venue will then be able to open. The owners plan to host a few soft opening events before officially launching operations.

“We can’t wait to have you in for some pizza, burgers, and the cold drink of your choice,” is Fleming’s message for the community.
