Cocktails & Vibes

Ay Papi was born from a moment—and a memory. A photo of our boss, Juan, as a child, lying in a hammock with his dad in Yauco, Puerto Rico, was beautifully transformed into a painting by a Denver muralist, and it became the spark that led to Ay Papi. 

“Ay, Papi” has always been a term of endearment between fathers, sons, and friends. It represents closeness, love, and identity. It’s playful, warm, and rooted in connection. 

Ay Papi celebrates Puerto Rico and Latin culture in full color—the diversity of not just its people but its music, beaches, and soul. It’s a place to be yourself, enjoy expressive cocktails, and immerse in Puerto Rican and Latin energy and creativity. Our drinks are vibrant and transportive, evoking the breezy feeling of a beachside escape. 

More than a bar, Ay Papi champions emerging voices in art, fashion, and music through regular pop-ups and cultural events. Come for the cocktails, stay for the connection. This is Puerto Rican and Latin-style, turned all the way up.
