White Mule Tavern
This
odd 1968 photo of a westbound Colfax station wagon features the old
White Mule Tavern at the corner of Elati St. (once directly across from
the Rocky Mountain News), and the A & K Auto Works, which had
probably been at this location of 510 W. Colfax since the time motoring
became popular. (Courtesy: Retro Denver Metro)

Remember it well. It was the watering hole of the old Metro campus (home of the original Roadrunners)
ReplyDeleteI taught at Metro in the late 1960s -- office in the Zook Building. A beer and burrito at the Mule was part of a normal day.
DeleteA & K was started in early 1900s with George Anema and Klaversma. Owned by George and 4 sons and a grandson over the years. Robin Masselink(George Juniors daughter)
ReplyDeleteI went to Metropolitan State College, now University, 1970-1974. Afternoon beer was a regular at the White Mule. Good memories.
