Bar Rescue · S3 E6
The Kasbah
Aurora, Colorado
Good outcome here: the business is still trading today.
The short answer
Live-music venue/bar at 15373 E 6th Ave; TripAdvisor listing content referencing 2026 and live-band reviews suggests ongoing operation, but this could not be conclusively confirmed via direct fetch this session.
What happened on the show
A reformed Aurora nightclub that had swapped its older regulars for a younger hip-hop crowd had inherited a dangerous reputation in the trade. The Kasbah served oversized portions in Styrofoam takeaway boxes, ran a bar staff nobody had bothered to train, and kept security so lax that violence and gangs had become the venue's calling card. Unusually for the show, Taffer brought in a third expert dedicated entirely to security, and during the stress test he planted liquor bottles on several patrons that guard Ron failed to catch during his pat-downs, exposing the hole in the door. Owner Shelton finally took a stand against his own lazy staff and fired Ron on the spot. The makeover cleaned out the filthy kitchen, cut the portions down, put food on real plates instead of foam containers, and drilled the bar staff in proper pouring technique, the rescue betting that discipline at the door and behind the bar could scrub a reputation built on chaos.
After the cameras left
The Kasbah appears to still be operating at 15373 East 6th Avenue, though the evidence is thin. TripAdvisor content referencing 2026 and glowing live-band reviews points to an ongoing business, and a page title asks whether it is still open in 2026, but no Yelp, Facebook or official-site confirmation was captured, and re-check attempts hit only an excluded fan-tracker teaser before rate-limiting. The open call rests at low confidence, the last usable signals pointing to a live venue but none of them independently verified.
