The Mine Shaft Tavern & Cantina offers an eclectic, old west feel with a live stage in front of a vintage steam engine. The food is matched with the scenery, and the staff are attentive and intuitive. This establishment is located in the City of Madrid, famous for the movie Wild Hogs, and it has been a local watering hole for miners long before Hollywood fame. The restaurant features both a cantina side with outdoor seating and an older saloon side. It's a fun spot, especially on Memorial Day weekend, and the atmosphere is comfortable, feeling a bit from the 1800s. The restaurant is wheelchair-accessible, and the Blues festival with huge plates of crawfish, shrimp, and potato fries is fantastic.
Customers praise the restaurant's historic atmosphere and local music performances. The menu features delicious dishes like the Hatch bison burger with onion rings, fried chili, and the green chile cheeseburger. Visitors also enjoy the prickly pear margarita and appreciate the staff's knowledge of the surrounding art galleries and museums. Many find the green chile fried from Hatch a must-try. The Mine Shaft Tavern & Cantina is a great place to stop and enjoy the local charm along the Turquoise Trail, where excellent food, ales, and wandering musicians create a fun vibe.
