Southwestern Colorado

Bar entertainment in Southwestern Colorado

  1. A

    New Sheridan Bar

    Well worth a visit in low season for some real local flavor and opinions. At other times, it becomes a rush hour of beautiful ones. But there's old bullet holes in the wall and the plucky survival of the bar itself, even as the adjoining hotel sold off chandeliers and fine furnishings to pay the heating bills during waning mining fortunes.

    El Rancho Tavern

    A bar with a long history, this place attracts loads of loyal locals who come to drink their whiskey well into the night. A dive with attitude, its long bar is made for serious boozing. Don’t miss the mural on the outside, and there are pool tables in the back. El Rancho gets progressively rowdier as the night progresses.

    Diamond Belle Saloon

    A rowdy corner of the historic Strater Hotel, this elegant old-time bar has waitresses flashing Victorian-era fishnets and live ragtime that keeps out- of-town visitors packed in, standing room only, at happy hour. Half-price appetizers and drink specials run from 4pm to 6pm. Also in Strater, The Office serves cocktails in an upscale and much more low-key atmosphere.

    Last Dollar Saloon

    All local color – forget about cocktails and grab a cold can of beer at this longtime late-night favorite, popular when everything else closes. With pool tables and darts.
