“We shall make time for the beautiful experiences in life that we take for granted and dedicate time to our crafts that express who we really are.”
Those are the words you find on the inside of the menu at Thirty Three, a bar that opened its doors in Colorado Springs on New Year’s Eve, 2023, with a singular goal: to create a beautiful space for people to meet and share an experience. And that is exactly what guests will find within the walls of Thirty Three, a sensory experience. Everything from the music, lighting, and furniture was hand selected (or hand built) by founder Joel McVay. To him, the very idea of a bar is pretty amazing. “If you look around, people from all walks of life come together and, over a few drinks, they become friends. They open up. If we’re going to do that, why not do it in a beautiful space?”
