Cool little dive bar right on Elk. Second floor deck with limited seating but a nice place to be in the CO sun. Bartender was friendly and helpful. Beer was the best in the world but still better than a beechwood aged golden lager. Great place to do some people watching and enjoy a more real mountain town experience.

Older bar/saloon setup in this quaint, overpriced ski town. The beer is only slightly below average and I have yet to try the food. The menu is rather benign but my wife and I ordered nachos, thinking this would be quick but two pints and 20 minutes later we were still next in line. Oh, and the cook was out of beans - he said they go bad quickly are you kidding? Canned food lasts forever. Anyway, the bar seems a bit rough with a very diverse crowd. They had 5 house beers on draught plus a few extras. Very dark and dungeon-like interior with beat up furniture. Looks like a fraternity party room actually and has a balcony overlooking the main street of town.

Small upstairs bar with a definate neighborhood vibe...the beers here are definately more interesting that across the street...

I should mention that I went here a little after 3pm, soon after they opened, so there were only two or three other people inside. Not a great way to evaluate the clientele, but it’s in second floor of one of the main-street facing buildings, and rather ordinary inside. There were pool tables in back, a very small restroom, and a small deck outside. Kind of shadowy and dreary feeling atmosphere, which is rather different from what Aubrey describes, but that’s how it was for me. Beers were below average, generally, often with diacetyl problems. The bartender was friendly, but you know, overall this place was pretty disappointing.

Really nice bar, upstairs above a real estate office, as I remember. Deck overlooks the "main" street of town, Elk Avenue. Inside, it felt cozy ... especially with all the greenery -- speaking of which, the bartender was watering the plants as we came in. And speaking of the bartender, she was extremely warm and friendly and smiling. She may or may not have known it, but that went a long way. Beers were OK; just four on tap when we were there.
