It's a dive bar in a mountain town, with amazing specials. They use local beef and make everything to order. Taco Tuesday, Fridays almost always has an amazing dinner special. If you like bourbon some of the best deals as well. You are in Cloudcroft, slow down, we are not a society in a hurry. Don't forget to tip your server.

We decided to have a drink before heading to our stay and found that this place had a wide variety of liquors and a liquor store. I had Jack on the rocks ( I know for shame with rocks), but it was late night, and I had fried mushrooms. My wife had Malibu/pineapple, and wings dry hot sauce on the side with dressing. The staff was very attentive. The atmosphere was as a bar should be, looked like people were enjoying themselves as we did as well. As you see in my pictures, what a bar! I don't recommend anyone under the age of 21. It does have an extensive line of liquor, beer, and wine. Nice place to try. Maybe next time we will try some food, although the appetizers were very good and tasty.

Local and only bar in Cloudcroft. It’s usually packed during the weekends or whenever tourists are in town. It’s covered in $1 dollar bills that guests write their names in or a bit and then staple it to the wall or ceilings. It gives the place a fun atmosphere. They do have pool tables and a dart board. They have a couple of televisions and a digital jukebox you can play music on but it’s usually at a low volume and you can’t really hear the music. Aside from alcohol they also serve food. It is quite delicious! Their Phillycheese steak is delicious, so are their breaded mushrooms. They have Taco Tuesday and although they are advertised as $1.50 per taco, they do add some fees at the end so you’re not really saving any money. Kids are allowed during the day. Pets are allowed even though

Best place in town to chill and get some good food. They have several craft beers on tap. They have some daily food special and don't miss taco Tuesday. Friendly staff, Good with pets.

The grill chef is amazing🤠! I had the philly chease steak this time, THAT PHILLY IS AMAZING!! The crunch and crisp of the garlic butter toasted bun along with the perfectly seared steak and veggies. One of the best I have ever had ANYWHERE! Shayla is two hoots and a great bartender. Kept us laughing the whole time we were there. This IS the local hang, and its a good one. Great food, huge portions, great service and lots of folks to chat with. We love this bar. Its all good here. We have been fans for over 30 years. We love this bar.
