12 Best Cocktail Bars in Steamboat Springs

“Enjoyed dinner on their lovely patio With being one block away from the main street it was also a little more relaxing.

Herb-crusted chicken entrees & gelato for dessert were excellent!

We appreciated our server, Coco, for excellent customer service too.“

“Michael Ruby, the owner and head bartender for Yampa Valley Shakers, was absolutely FANTASTIC to work with for our wedding! Ruby went above and beyond to make our day go smoothly and our guests happy (including many of our guests who were visiting from the midwest...and know how to keep a bartender busy). He was incredible at keeping an open line of communication with us starting months before our wedding date. He also worked smoothly with our wedding coordinator, and showed up early the day of, to help prep and stage. More impressively, he was flexible with a lot of last minute changes made on our end and had creative solutions for how to keep a nice flow to the evening. He has the vast experience to whip up (or help you create) a plethora of quality signature cocktails and we relied on his expertise on picking our wine selection. He even went way out of his way to surprise the bride and bridesmaids with a favorite cocktail of theirs in the bridal suite. All in all, we can’t say enough good things about our experience with Yampa Valley Shakers! They were professional, experienced, accommodating, and fun! -James & Courtney“

“Everything here is delicious and the staff can’t be beat. If you haven’t eaten here, you’re missing out! The most unique food experience you’ll have in Steamboat.“

“We were so happy with the service, atmosphere, and especially the food! Very very good. Highly recommend. 👏😁“

“Cory that works here, makes this place awesome. Super knowledgeable of the Steamboat layout and all its restaurants, bars, and even golf courses. He and Ken were very friendly and call a spade a spade by a landslide. Go in and order some booze from these guys.“

“This holiday inn is right at the base of the mountain and can’t beat the location or views. We’ve brought our boys up for five years straight over Memorial Day solely for their indoor/outdoor pool. It is an older location and needing some renovations but they are trying to keep up with it and any complaints you might have the staff are quick to your needs, friendly and go the extra mile every time we’ve had the pleasure of visiting. Great for any family on a budget. The restaurant on site has great food and service as well and we had the pleasure of seeing a baby moose on our last visit!“

“Snow Bowl was CRANKING tonight and the waitress taking orders from the lanes was absolutely killing it on her own. She was working so hard and so were the rest of the staff. Thanks Snow Bowl you are the best!“

“delicious!!! fabulous margs!“

“My veggie sandwich was dope!!!“

“Large portion tapas, artistically prepared and exceptional fine flavors made for a delightful dinner. Being our first time there our waiter David made the selection. Each tapas was unique: soup, pork, chicken and seafood. And do not forget the banana pudding. Like no other.“

“Great menu! Cassidy Wollenburg is the best 😉“

“Was an unusually warm day in Steamboat, sat on the deck. I got the grilled cheese and tomato basil soup, the guys got jerk chicken, the chicken sandwich, and burger, everything was delicious and perfect for the day. $2 beers at Happy Hour. 👍🏼 The deck is right on the ski slope, was nice watching the skiers come down the hill.“
