Their blackberry gose was amazing. The balsamic pizza a little less so: the crust was very dense and crispy, like a cracker. I suppose the altitude has something to do with that. The overall flavor of the pizza was good and I think you'd struggle to do better in Silverton. read more

We went here for pizza and beer. The pizza looked good on others tables and came out pipping hot. The pizza lacked flavor even though we ordered the supreme. I would not get food from here again. The beers were good, I had the Hef and hubs had the IPA the place was clean and had COVID measures in place. We had great window views and the service was decent. read more

This place is a gem of a find! Our bartender Corey Ann was incredible! She was very accommodating, helpful in choosing vegan options, and had extensive knowledge of the menu. We listened to her accommodate several other guests in their allergies, one of the best services I've ever received and I'm in the service industry! The town is adorable, and this place made my boyfriend and me feel at home. read more

Avalanche Brewing - Vegan Thai pizza and Sultan IPA - both five stars - Pizza Near Me - Silverton, Colorado

My boyfriend and I have been "habituals" at Avalanche the past two years we have lived in SW CO. We were worried when they were moving that it would lose the "small/cozy feel" it had but that concern was lost as soon as we went to their new spot. The vibe is super chill with the most friendly staff. I am a margarita snob and though I LOVE their beer I'm always wanting to start with a spicy margarita (or three!! Lol). It isn't on the "'menu" but the fantastic bartenders never say NO to muddling me a fresh spicy concoction. I will be honest... their manager Tracy holds the title for my top 5 spicy margaritas I've ever had in my life (which is impressive since I'm 42 in January!). The food is also AMAZING! I've joked that their ranch dressing is something I could pour over everything and be super stoked! Our favorites are the wings of any flavor (super crispy and fresh), the speciality Hawaiian style pizza, all the tacos and of course the dough balls (again- the ranch sauce is to die for). Avalanche is a staple for us and we truly have never had a bad time between drinks, food and/or service. OH and our dogs love the side order of whatever it is we bring back to them after a day of playing in the high country! read more

Stopped in by chance for a cold one and something to eat. It's kind of a self serve place where the silver and bussing are done by yourself. No problem here however. Everything is home made from what I was told from someone later on. They brew their own beers and the Pride of the West Porter was some of the best porter we ever had!!! My wife also tried a Hot White Russian type drink and loved it. The drink choices were creative and had the cute descriptions that she loves and has to try. We decided on the Neopolitano pizza. OMG. The favors were awesomely fresh and worked SO well together. Must have been that home made pesto sauce... Then comes the crust. It was done to perfection. Perfect firmness, perfect chewiness, perfect all around texture. I rate this piece of artistic creation as in the top echelon of pizza experiences I have ever had. I can not believe I had to go to Silverton Colorado to find it. Upon talking to the pizzaiolo, the dough is indeed made in house along with other ingredients. (Like I thought different?) He then offered me a slice of a green chili sauce based pizza with sausa fresca and things I can't remember except that the favors were well married and the thing was outta this world! (I AM a green chili lover at heart) There is also a chalk board with tons of creative caffeine drinks and other items. Definitely worth a try. You can't miss the place because the fence surrounding the patio is made up of old and colorful snow skis. Just another tribute to the creativity born in this place. read more

Avalanche Brewing - Just en example of the creativity exhibited here! - Pizza Near Me - Silverton, Colorado

Great wraps & street tacos. Adorable atmosphere & very friendly personnel. They have good variety of beers & assorted libations.

Great place for a quick pit stop on your way through Silverton! Avalanche was the only place we found that was open it what could be called silverton's "off-season". We had ziberfizz cream soda's and a Meathead Pizza and it was really good! We got to watch the lady behind the bar seal beer and lager in house and it was super cool to watch! Unfortunately, we couldn't enjoy any drinks as we were on the road, but we are really excited to come back through! read more

Avalanche Brewing - Pizza Near Me - Silverton, Colorado

Tasty beers. Tacos were good. Can tie dogs in front of building so they can be semi close to you but are not allowed on the patio. However, just the law apparently. read more

We've been here twice this summer. Every beer we tried was AMAZING! Full of flavor and finishes smooth. The coconut margarita was delicious. It wasn't too sweet and I especially liked the coconut flakes around the rim. When we went on Father's Day we LOVED our food. We had the spicy pork tacos, pull pork sandwich, chicken tacos and chicken wrap. The food that day was delicious and fresh. But when we went back July 6th the food was mediocre and disappointing. The corn tortillas were straight out of the bag, not warmed. The chicken tasted like warmed up boiled chicken. The tacos were dry. It was a totally different food experience. We tried the pizza that same day hoping for a redeeming experience. While the toppings were flavourful and well paired, the crust tasted like cardboard. Not sure what changed in 3 weeks with the kitchen, but I hope it gets corrected. The staff, atmosphere and the beer get 5 stars. But food is a 2. read more

Avalanche Brewing - Delicious beer - Pizza Near Me - Silverton, Colorado

Visited my birth home, Silverton, last weekend. Stopped in at Avalanche 2.0, previously Romero's for 48 years. Food okay, a brew is a brew but lacked "hospitality"! George Romero greeted everyone. I did hear derogatory remarks about Romero's and the new owner telling them to keep it down as previous owners in the building! Wow! How sad, we gave something so special away and replaced by the "same ole, same ole", nothing special, especially not the rude remarks. read more

Had lunch here on a Monday, was somewhat busy. Bar gave beer samples. The special soup was good and pizza for the kids was really good. It has a fun atmosphere. Skiers appear to like the bar. read more

great food, great service... pizza crust was... just... the best.

If you are going to eat one lunch or drink one beer in Silverton, CO, this is your place. The views from the outside deck CANNOT be beat. The bright colors are Tibetan inspired and make you want to hire a Sherpa and trek. The inside is small and quaint. Their kitchen is tiny, but they are reasonably efficient. I ordered the Turkey and Cranberry sandwich, it was SOOOOOOO good. I couldn't get over the freshness of the bread, combined with the freshness of the air - perfect combo. This place has a little reservation in my heart, I will return when the wind blows me in that direction again. Until then, trek on... read more

Was excited to try the breakfast pizza and breakfast burritos. After ordering I found out that they premake the food and then heat it up. Really bummed! The smoothie was good though as was the lemon bar. Won't be back. read more

Nice beer selection and cool vibe/atmosphere. I ordered a flight but the names weren't accurate and the written order reflected even different drafts-result was the I was doubly puzzled as to what I was drinking. Wait staff struggled to clear it up and so I was confused. read more

As a vegan, I am used to limited options when visiting small country towns. Imagine my surprise when I saw Avalanche Cafe offer tofu and soymilk substitutes for their drinks and food! Got the Chai Tea Latte which was really strong but I grew to like it. The breakfast burrito (w/o meat & cheese, substitute tofu) was smothered in green chili... and DELICIOUS! Good food, cozy atmosphere, friendly staff, and decent prices made this a great experience. Will definitely come back again! edit: 6/29/12 Came back to try their Make-Your-Own pizza. For the "fancy" $10 pizza you could pick 3 toppings, but because I don't eat cheese, I was able to get a 4th topping at no extra cost. The lady gave me marinara sauce for the pizza crust and a balsamic reduction to drizzle on the pizza. All very delicious! Avalanche also provides out-door seating with a great view of the mountains and free wifi. I am officially in love with this place =) read more

We ordered the Das Boot Oktober Fest and the Mexican Lager beers. Very good! The Cubano wrap was absolutely outstanding. Wonderful service and fun atmosphere. read more

To the girl taking the orders at the cashier - why leave a tip for taking an order? An order that was interrupted by you talking to 3 other people. Tips are earned, after service is delivered. Grow up, get an education. Learn something about service and economics too. You also shouldn't assume a tip would not be left after the meal, for good service. read more

I am 50 years old and this is my first ever review Of a restaurant. I have to say everything about this place was top notch. From the beer to the tacos to the pizza to the wraps to the service--outstanding. So MUCH flavor and what a great vibe. And to top it all off, open all year around. This is what Silverton needs! We will be back and back and back! read more

The Avalanche is a great place to find straight-forward comfort food during the day and excellent artisan pizza at night (Thu/Fri/Sat). They serve a selection of beer and wine, and do espresso drinks as well. The atmosphere is very casual and everyone who works there is friendly. The front deck is a great place to enjoy your morning coffee or sit inside by the woodstove in the winter. Steph also makes great homemade soups and has a different dinner special every week (in addition to the pizza & salads). Definitely a must-do while in Silverton. read more

Beers were good, but you'd think if one of your main dishes was pizza you'd make them half way decent. Probably the worst pizza I have ever had. Got the supreme, and the toppings and cheese were cold but crust was hot and crispy on the bottom and cold in the middle. Was definitely frozen and halfway reheated before it was served. Could have done better with a frozen pizza at home ‍ read more

The beer is delicious, the food is superb and the beer is amazing. Their patio is incredible and they are dog friendly. What else could you ask for?!? read more

Good beer, good food. Staff wore face masks, very friendly. Outside seating available which is nice during the day (too cold at night). Al pastor tacos, cheesy bread bites, supreme pizza, and salads were all yummy. Avalanche has the best hours in town too. read more

Avalanche was hands down my favorite place to eat throughout my travels to Silverton for the past 5 or so years. However after today I doubt I'll be back again. I don't know what happened to the killer sandwiches,awesome breakfasts, and baked goods but they have been replaced with a big ol glass of trendy beer. Truth be told, I saw the sizes of the beer glasses; pretty small if I must say. Sure, today I had a Thai chicken wrap and bag of chips but honestly it wasn't that much better than what I can get at a grocery store deli counter. And if you open now at 11, how can your baked goods case be literally empty by 1pm? I'm very sad to say but what I knew Avalanche to be is now just a faded memory. But for all those other folks in sure they serve up a mean beer and the rotating menu on the flatscreen that no one seems to be able to read; sure is trendy. read more

This place had really good smelling food. We stopped by for a drink. I had a mixed drink and my husband a beer. Bartender was very nice and drink was made well. Also not overpriced read more

Great little place with yummy pizza, street tacos and Greek feta wrap. Very thankful they had a gluten-free pizza option for my Celiac daughter - and they followed tight protocol with separate preparation area, cooking tin and pizza slicer. Thankful, and will be a repeat patron! read more

A must-do whenever we are in Silverton! Love their beers and pizza. Beers are some of my favorites in the four corners region! Looking forward to the new digs on the main drag. read more

Awesome food and great atmosphere. It feels like a very friendly local spot with an interesting menu.

OMG. This is my new favorite place. The beer is great but the food is amazing!!!! What a cool little place to stop aft riding the million dollar highway!!! read more

The interior of Avalanche is kind of like a wannabe hipster city coffee shop more than a brewery, and that's not a compliment at all. They only had three of there own brews on draft plus PBR. Didn't really care for their whit beer but the pale ale was standard faire. As for food, they do some pizzas but the wraps are where it's at. read more

I would like to shout out Jody. Awesome person. Great atmosphere!!!!!!! From Texas and I loved it.

Great experience! Our waitress was great and provided good insight on both the adult beverages and food choices. We ordered the Mountain dots for an appetizer, which was a great choice. We also ordered the pulled pork sandwich and pizza for our entrees and they were great as well. The adult beverages were great, including their in house made beer. read more

Goooood Za! I don't drink no mo but I hear that the beer is great as well. I don't know if they still have the Big Mac pizza but if they do, order it... it's delish read more

We really enjoyed the setting, service, running into new and old friends plus the brews and pizza. I was super excited to even get vegan cheese for mine! All because Eureka was closed, looks like we have a new business to support in Silverton. Durango family now supports a Durango graduate and his family. read more

Good beer. Researched on 3 different sites before going with 7 lb dog. NOT dog friendly! Dogs are only allowed as close as the parking area. Very unhappy since websites all said dog friendly on patio!!! read more

Visiting from out of town and came across this place. Amazing service and limited seating due to covid. Thai tofu wrap is amazing. Full of flavor. Definitely recommend this place. read more

This was the first place my boyfriend and I ate at when we got into Silverton off of the CT. The guy who gave us a ride into town suggested it saying they had the best beer and awesome jalapeño poppers and pizza. I ordered the strawberry rhubarb góse beer (DELICIOUS) and my boyfriend had the IPA. Beer is definitely done well here. We ordered the jalapeño poppers which were delicious, and we split one of their pizzas which was also delicious. We've since eaten at several places in town and Avalanche IMO holds its place at the top for best beer and food. The atmosphere is great too, and the deck out front is dog friendly! If you're in Silverton DEFINITELY stop in and try some pizza and beer here! read more

Love. Love. Love. Not sure what more I should say. After watching the Skijoring competition we stopped in for beer and pizza. The beer (Wit and Smash) was fantastic and a combo I heard ordered by other patrons several times while there. The Smash was not intended to be an IPA but came out with more hops than anticipated so they went with it. It as a solid IPA. The pizza (supreme) was equally as awesome. The crust and toppings were quality. Though packed from the event we got seats at the bar. The staff was friendly and attentive. I sure did not feel like I was in a small town in the middle of nowhere. I can't wait to go back! read more

So this place is super cute & we saw it right after we got off the train. I love little ski side breweries so we went immediately. I ordered a hummus flatbread thinking it would be warm with gooey feta. I also got an IPA. I love IPAs, and I couldn't drink what they gave me. I even checked with my friend to make sure they didn't swap beers on us. Yuck. I've had some bad beers but this was terrible. The flatbread came out cold & the hummus was about 2mm thing on the bland bread. Yuck again. I tried my friend's pizza (apple and ham) but it had very little flavor at all on it. We put hot sauce on the pie and shared it since we'd already paid. read more
