Staff is shady and place IS NOT non-local friendly. Bartender took my card to open tab when I ordered. When I asked for the check he verbally gave me a price- I then reminded him he had my card on file, he then brought the check which was several dollars more than what he had previously said. If it’s a cash discount- I didn’t see anything anywhere about merchant fees…SHADY. Also noticed a table of same bartenders friends (maybe regulars) arguing with several other tables around them. When it was brought to bartenders attention he brought his friends a round of shots. Great way to diffuse a tense situation.

Best chicken tenders in town! And some other great bar food too, especially liked the blackened catfish tacos.

Unfortunately no food post 9:45pm, closes at 11pm I think. I already ate and wasn't interested in food, just wanted a few beers. I love getting served in the same plastic cup and told at 10:20pm (shame on me) it becomes a smoke fest up there, so stay at your own risk. I just really didn't feel comfortable here.

Stopped for a drink. Service was quick, they were not busy. Didn't try the food. But other people's plates looked yummy.

Nice spot. Decent views of town, fun to look down at the pedestrians and cars going by, and most importantly gaze at the surrounding hills. Not the best place to catch a sunset though.
Burger was unremarkable in every way. Place was nearly full and the two waitresses that I could see were clearly struggling to keep up with the demand. They were definitely trying, but a lot of errors from being pulled in too many directions / making up for absent bar tenders and bar backs.
Live music was a good balance of enjoyable if I wanted to focus on it, but easy to tune out when the conversation needed me to.
I'd go back, but probably not for food, just drinks.

Carson is an awesome server she is amazing. I love this spot! Great atmosphere and food!
My wife and I were visiting our son and his fiancée and came here for lunch on a Friday. It is located on the main downtown street and, you guessed it, is an upstairs establishment. It was a hot day, even at a table under an umbrella. It was busy.
The young female server was very nice and attentive. The women had frozen margaritas and the men had IPAS. The beer was good but the women both said they did not really notice any tequila in them.
A burger, two shrimp dishes, and a chicken sandwich(me) were ordered. The food took unusually long to come out. My wife did not think that she received enough shrimp but enjoyed them. I liked my sandwich and the fries were nicely seasoned and crispy.
Though the table area and bar is not that large, they have a stage for live music. I recommend Balcony Bar and Grill.
Food was ok Bbq fries, why? who wants fries with bbq sauce

After exploring Durango, enjoy the in town views at the Balcony. Bar food, choice selections of local and state favorite libations. Sunsets are the best at the Balcony.

Visited Balcony while in town for a wedding. Definitely gave me more college bar vibes than anything else, but drinks were strong and service pretty fast for how busy it was. Bathrooms are an interesting experience to get to, but not bad for this type of bar.

We loved it here. A local musician was playing and he was excellent, covering classic songs and interspersing them with some of his own great songs. The food was tasty, plentiful and really good value for money. There was a great array of beers including my favourite Stella Artois, and the prices were low. But most importantly the bartender who dealt with us all evening was lovely and personable. She made us feel really welcome, and always had a smile on her face. She dealt with multiple customers with ease and never left anyone waiting. I am just sorry we didn't ask her name but I'm sure her employer already knows that they have a gem there. She has blonde hair and a big smile, and was working on Monday evening 23rd June 2025. She made our visit to Durango even more memorable.
