Toby Keith Opens ‘I Love This Bar And Grill’ In Denver

Toby Keith's I Love This Bar & Grill celebrated its grand opening late last month at the Shops at Northfield Stapleton in Denver.

Toby Keith appeared during the grand opening at the restaurant, which is of course, named for his 2003 hit.  It has a 91-foot guitar-shaped bar and a stage that will feature live music five nights a week, and dancing cowgirls somewhat comparable to another chain restaurant, Coyote Ugly.

The 22,000 square-foot restaurant seats 650 and has 50 HDTV monitors and a mechanical bull, according to a news release.

This is the first location for Toby Keith in Colorado and the seventh nationwide. It is expected to employ 200 people.

Although the restaurant is employing 200 people, seems some of the people in Denver aren't too happy about it being there...Shock!
