Lots of seating options, lots of room for larger crowds and a decent outdoor space as well. They had several sour beer options which always is a plus in my book. My guy enjoyed several IPAs with zero complaints. The beer tender was fabulous, attentive and offered several suggestions. Always a plus. If we lived in town, we'd be here regularly for sure.

ARGH. there did happen to be 1 bar stool at the end of the bar, and a kind man who happened to be from Kansas no doubt who stood up and gave the JW his seat, and i then had my sampler platter of beer and some tasty snack mix as well. the beer was wonderful and we enjoyed everything exept the trivia. the guy at the bar also happened to be working the next morning when we stopped in for coffee. the coffee needs work. all in all, for a tiny mountain town, this place is pretty darn good, i would highly recommend a stop in if yo're driving through.

And each tried something different. From the filet and ribeye to the t-bone and spaghetti. It was all OUTSTANDING. This restaurant was just what the valley needed. A GOOD STEAKHOUSE with the friendliest staff. We were greeted by the friendliest hostess who made us feel at home. And had the greatest night with friends, meeting new friends, in the coolest restaurant around. Do yourself a favor and stop by! We'll be regulars. Count on that!!

Chief Liquor is a fantastic adult beverage store in Alamosa, CO…read more They offer a wide variety of liquor, some wines, and beer, but not so much in the snacks department -- just pretzels & jerky. The one-way streets in the area are a bit funky, but manageable. It's conveniently located across the street from Walgreens & Safeway, so what they don't have inside this place will most likely be available at the other two. There is ample parking out front or on the side. They even have a drive-thru. When my significant other and I stopped here on 6/7/2023, we met the friendliest cashier with a great personality. In such a short time, we learned about several of their usual customers -- they like to get there bright and early -- sometimes before this cashier does at 8AM! Lol.

Good shakes/malts. Decent burgers. The shakes were…read moredefinitely the highlight! 2 malts(a chocolate and a banana pudding) and peanut butter chocolate shake. (You can't go wrong with Blue Bell) The burgers were pretty mediocre, better than fast food but not a draw to bring us back (one was a bit dry). The fries were very good, the right amount of crisp outside and soft inside with good seasoning. It is pretty much what one might expect from a roadside burger and malt joint. There is inside and outside dining. Service was great. It is order at the window and seat yourself but they weren't super busy and brought our order to us when it was ready. We would and probably will go back for malts and maybe try the Frito pie.

Come here!!! This place is awesome! We came to the library, and decided to stop in for a malt…read moreafterward. We got the strawberry malt, Oreo malt, Snickers Avalanche (similar to a DQ Blizzard, but BETTER because they put more snickers), and the onion rings. WOOOOW! All of the desserts were amazing!...AND the onion rings were the best onions rings I've ever had. I live in a huge city (Phoenix), so I definitely have had my fair share of rings from dozens and dozens of places. None of them compare to the rings here. The workers were ao kind and gave each of my dogs a pup cup when we came with them. They also had a dog bowl with water outside for people who bring their dogs. We will definitely be back every year when we visit Colorado.

The Polished Bean is a drive-thru cafe on Monte Vista, CO…read more My daughters and I wanted a little caffeine kick so I took the drive-thru. The speaker on June 28, 2024 was scratchy and cutting in and out. So the young lady at the window waves us up to her & probably said that much on the speaker too, but we'll never know. Lol. I requested an iced mocha latte ($5.97) since they were unable to do an iced coffee. It tasted delicious! Service was a bit slow for one drink, but super friendly. Cash gets you a slight discount, but cards are accepted too. Look for The Polished Edge building--it's a liquidation, stone, tile & flooring store. The Polished Bean is in the same building with the menus displayed on its southeast corner.

Easy to find, nice parking lot and once inside - their beer cave is Ice cold (stood in there just to cool off?!) and keeps bottled/boxed wine chilled too. Perfect! During my visit they were out of corkscrews but told me the Safeway 20 feet away did and we were set. This was a win!
