The driver, identified as a 22-year-old man from Lakewood, was arrested on suspicion of DUI.
It happened just after midnight at the Ugly Dog Sports Café at 1345 Cortez Street in unincorporated Adams County.
Troopers said the driver of a grey Chevy Silverado drove off the right shoulder of Cortez Street and collided with a guardrail.
It then continued back across Cortez Street, driving off the left shoulder, and collided with the patio area, striking four people, two women and two men.
Three victims were taken to a nearby area hospital by ambulance. One male is in critical condition, with one male and one female suffering serious bodily injuries.
One of the female victims, who self-transported, had minor injuries.
