The space itself is fine, as are many of the day-to-day employees. But over the last few years I have had *NUMEROUS* issues with representatives lying about pricing, getting charged incorrectly or multiple times, and always being told some variation of "well that sounds like a YOU problem, bro". I'd like to be singing DBC's praises more often, but they're just never there for me when it comes to billing and support. Feels like an ownership/culture problem - not about to complain about the folks just trying to work a job and do their best.

DBC offers some of the best route setting I have ever had the pleasure of climbing. The vibe at all of their gyms is welcoming and the staff is incredibly friendly. I couldn’t recommend a better climbing gym!

DBC is the best bouldering gym in town. There is no other place to find this quality of climbing and friendly environment in town, especially at this price point. Central is my favorite gym to climb. I highly recommend for someone looking to get a climbing pass, looking for somewhere to drop in for a day pass, or even beginners getting into climbing. Favorite gym in town!!

This gym is great! I don’t usually visit bouldering gyms but this one is an exception. The routes are varied and challenging, but what I appreciate most of all is the vibe is very laid-back and humble. Everyone I’ve met there has been super friendly!

This is my favorite places to Boulder in Denver. There is a relaxed atmosphere, constantly changing routes to keep things interesting, and they allow dogs to hang out while you climb! The staff there is also kind and amazing at answering any questions you might have. You could easily spend a few hours here on a great variety of climbing style problems, types of wall designs, and difficulties.

I've been going to the Denver Bouldering club pretty consistent for almost a yeah and a half now. All of the staff are super friendly and are really great representatives of the openness and supportive qualities that can be found within the climbing community.I was skeptical at first about the rating system as they group grades within their own Easy, Medium and Hard grading system. However, I've come to believe that it helps climbers forget about grades a bit and just climb routes that seem enjoyable. The routesetting can get super creative and interesting at all grades.I would definitely recommend checking them out over one of the larger climbing conglomerates, you won't be disappointed.

Great walls, and friendly staff! We were pleasantly surprised to find that the gym not only had bouldering walls, but also squat racks and bench press, so we won't need a normal gym membership on top of this one, which makes it really valuable for us.
