Amazing, warm and attentive service with Kathy, she made excellent recommendations! Best wings I have had…dressing and dishes are home-made and taste like it. Outstanding Rueben and hamburger…desert was a warm apple strudel/cobbler w/vanilla ice cream…again home-made…highly recommend and ask for Kathy 😊

Great place to grab dinner! The food was really good from the pretzel appetizer to the main course. Highly recommend the steak sandwich. Decent choices for young kids too. The root beer was well liked and the Big Bike Double IPA was really good. We got here a bit early for dinner which worked out well because it got busy while we were there. Noticed a wait when we left. Our server and the rest of the staff we interacted with were very nice. Used the paid meter parking on the street. Would definitely come back next time we are in town!

We came here on a NYE day time and the place was PACKED. we opted to sit at the bar. The bartenders were amazing and very friendly despite being super busy. We ordered their chipotle steak nachos and shared them. It was soooo delicious. The portion was very filling. Great selection of local beers too.

Picked this place from smoking several similar type restaurants based on the menu and reviews for our dinner.

Not sure if other parking was available, but had to deal with street parking. Inside it was a bit loud, but we were seated quickly (they have a very easily accessible online wait-list via their website, which is a great feature). Decor wasn't bad either.

Our server seemed to be doing the job of 2 people, but was very efficient. Drinks were good, particularly the seasonal Dunkel.

The problem stated with the food. I got the beef stuffed poblano (pictured) and my wife a hamburger and fries. Appearance wise they looked great. On the plus side, the seasoning was spot on for everything. I enjoyed my dish and finished it quickly, however it didn't take me long to realize the layers of sauces were hiding the fact that there was very little beef in the poblano. Maybe 2 bites worth altogether. Honestly, it would have been a good dish even without the beef, but it felt like a bit of a switch from what was advertised.

The bigger issue was my wife's order - the burger itself was a pretty solid burger, well seasoned and cooked. However the fries were absolutely terrible. In general, I'm a sucker for sidewinder fries - when done well they have the crispy seasoned exterior of a curly fry, with the interior of a steak fry. These had none of that. To start they were barely luke warm to the touch. Things got worse upon attempting to eat them. Both ends were incredibly hard rather than crisp and the center was just mealy. They clearly hadn't been near a fryer in a long time. Overall impression was they had been sitting in a warming tray for an hour or 2. When I explained the issue to our waitress she was very apologetic and quickly offered to have a fresh batch delivered (no complaints on service). However....upon delivery of the new batch they were barely improved at all. Same issues, though at least slightly warmer overall. Absolutely zero chance they had been freshly made - unless they were using a microwave. Not wanting to make a scene and being done with the whole sorry affair, we ate the center of some of the less terrible ones before quietly paying and leaving.

It was particularly sad as the fries were also seasoned well, just a complete failure of cooking or serving fresh. And fried items are usually one of the more reliable items at most pub type places.

Overall we are unlikely to return.

Food was great, our server Holden was amazing, hostess was really kind also, even with a 20min wait. Drinks were well prepared as well. Quesadilla and beef chipotle sandwich were delicious.

This is the BEST place in Durango! This is the Local Brewing place you want to go to. Trust me.
Great great food, meals are professionally made and paired with their great brews.
Our waitress forgot their smile and enthusiasm home. Her loss on service.

Highly recommend for their food.

Really enjoyed the food. Lots of different bread bowls were ordered and all were enjoyed. Got the burger and it was perfect. Little bit of a smaller space.
