Well, We go to this bar about 3 x a month on weekends for lunch. Yesterday upon arrival, I had to call because they were late opening as usual! The lady seemed to have an attitude from the get go. When we walked in, we had our service dog as we always do, and never been told anything. The bartender immediately asked if we had a leash. My service dog is tiny and sits on my lap, nothing illegal via the ADA on this, as I’ve studied the rules and polices. The bartender had a poor attitude so we left and will continue to take our business elsewhere. Mediocre food, overpriced drinks, bad attitude.

If you want a real cowboy Western bar experience this is it. Great atmosphere, and several options to sit down and relax. The service is great they're very quick and professional.

First time in Cloudcroft, we were amazed at the area! Beautiful natural area and very fun location. We walked in the bar and thought this was going to be a great, fun place to grab a drink and some food on my birthday. Ha! We walked in, I had to find a waitress and ask if we just sat ourselves, yes, no problem. The place is popular, so I had to ask another customer if we could share his table, a table for six, and there were only two of them. So not a problem. His friend comes to the table with drinks from the bar. We have already been waiting 15 minutes, no waitress, nothing. So two of my party went up to the bar to order drinks white we waited for the waitress. The bartender yelled at them telling them only a waitress could bring the drinks to the table, so they sit down and wait. 15 minutes later, the waitress comes to our table, we explain what happened, she goes to get our drinks, my drink order is wrong, she had to fix it. Then 10 minutes later she comes back and asks us what we want. I asked her if we were supposed to look the menu up online, and she said, oh! You want menus? Usually people just order the tacos on Tuesday. Huh? I looked around at other tables and the food was about half and half. So we had to wait for menus. We finally placed our order, another family came in after that. They ordered and got their food before us, we waited another 10 minutes after they got their food to get ours. This place is a disaster. It obviously only caters and respects locals, even though the area seems to be very touristy. A side note, not related to the restaurant per se, but the first table we sat at, a lady joined the two men at the table and wondered why we were sitting there, that there was a table opening up 'over there'. I was taken aback! The two men graciously let us sit there. So when I saw the other table paying their bill, I asked if we could take the open seats, so we moved. The restaurant doesn't have music, but does have a juke box, so I put in a bunch of songs, met another couple and they put in a bunch of songs. Then a guy at the pool table started playing music on his phone really loud so we couldn't hear the juke box music. Obviously he didn't like our paid choices, no one said anything. As cool as this place looks, I wouldn't return. Just a crappy experience after a lot of anticipation. Oh and did I mention the dog? The customer who brought the dog in let him eat out of one of the restaurants dishes on the floor. Yuk.

We have been dining at the Western Bar quite some time. After a long day we decided it would be nice to enjoy dinner and a drink at your establishment as the for and service was always exceptional. Not today, June 2, 2025, we entered and seated ourselves, cleared a dirty table so we could sit at a clean table. Waitress saw us numerous time and indicated she would be right with us but we gave up after 45 minutes with no service. Not sure what the problem is but residents in the area this sure doesn't give a good impression to visitors that patron your plane of business. We were totally dissatisfied with this experience and will think twice before returning or recommending family or friends.

Food was very good and excellent service.

This was our second choice because the BBQ place had a two hour wait, lucky for us they did. Holiday weekend, some of the staff didn't show up, only one server and she was great, friendly, fast and knowledgeable. The burger and sweet potato fries were great and the portion size was plenty and very reasonably priced. Best meal of the trip out west.

Fun little hole in the wall.

We just went to the package store. They had a great selection.
Great atmosphere and good service. The food is good for bar food and they had a decently stocked bar. The pool table next to the wood stove was an especially nice touch on the cold night we visited.

10 outta 10 and then some. Good food, good drinks, good times. You don't want to come up this Mountain and NOT get a drink. It's a tradition. Make it your tradition too.
Great food, good beer selection, excellent service, great atmosphere, highly recommend

The potatoes were super delicious, freshly made... the burger was juicy and well prepared, the atmosphere was very good... I definitely want to return... The tapestry of dollars is something very original and striking.
