Great place! Quality crafted cocktails, aesthetic that fits the dirt road town with a classy feel.

This place is in the most "off the beaten path" location in the mountains, but it is worth seeking out! Located in a ghost town of main street Silver Plume, Bread Bar is housed in a tiny, old building, maintaining an authentic feel, while housing a great spirits collection and craft cocktails. On a Saturday afternoon during mud season, the inside was packed and people kept flowing in. The drink list is short and succinct, but the drinks are well crafted, featuring local spirits if possible. They have plenty of beer to choose from, as well as cider and wine. This is the perfect place to escape from people and city life without losing quality in the product of craft cocktails. There is a patio, fire pit, and dogs are welcome! If you're going up to ski or to the mountains, make sure you stop in on the way for an authentic experience! read more

Attention mountain goers, Fancy cocktails ahead! Cute place and even better drinks. It's like Denvers best mixology made its way to a tiny mountain town off the I-70! So much attention to detail on these drinks. The bartender even remade mine before I even tried it! Perfection on the combos of citrus and liquor paired with a great drink maker. The place is SO vintage 20s prohibition without being hidden and it's not where you would expect. So many different people that stopped by and the best part? DOGS. They allowed dogs in and welcome big and small groups. Anyone passing through the mountains, this is a must stop by! Note: drivers must only have one! Very strong. Happy Drinking! read more

After being a huge Dram fan for years, going to Bread Bar was a gigantic disappointment. We were ignored as soon as we walked in the door, as the bartenders were welcoming what seemed to be regular customers. The bar was a complete disaster area with plastic shot glasses and bottles strewn about. We ordered two Hemingway Daquiris (a special on the chalkboard outside) and were immediately discouraged. After finally gulping down our drinks, we were told that our lackluster, unappetizing cocktails would be $10 a piece. All around--this was a huge letdown. While Dram had heart and sincerity, Bread Bar has none. They are now a cheap, chintzy, "for-instagram-only" version of what was once a lovely and professional gem. read more

This place is so super cute, quaint and they make the best cocktails. It was my first time visiting there during my stay in Colorado and I'll definitely be back. Loved it and looking forward to trying all the cocktails on the menu. They don't serve food so make sure you get food either before or after but it's a cool little spot to relax and spend time with good friends or loved ones. read more

Bread Bar - Cortez Thompson rocks :) - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Silver Plume, Colorado

If you are ever headed back to Denver from the mountains on I70 and you do not stop into Bread Bar for a cocktail.....well, you are a fool. This quaint small bar with wonderfully crafted cocktails and unique atmosphere, is just what you need after the Eisenhower Tunnel. Definitely give it a shot! I am picky about my cocktails but this place hit on all cylinders! read more

Less than an hour from Denver, Bread Bar is my new favorite place to escape for a day drink! Tucked on Main Street of timeless Silver Plume, this bar fits the charming, mountain town bill. We grabbed two cocktails (the Baby Doe Taber and the Chief Colorow) and headed out to the back patio. Both drinks were great--try the Chief Colorow if you're looking for something boozy--and the back porch vibe was dreamy. Drinks, dogs, and views for days? I'll be back soon! read more

See all

Bread Bar is a small, out of the way mixology bar in the oddest of places. But they punch well above their weight. Tucked away in a back corner of Silver Plume, you'll find top shelf cocktails to rival some of the best you'll find in LA or NYC (or Denver!). I was just passing through, but given the chance I'd book a room at Silver Plume's one B&B just to have an opportunity to work through the cocktail list. Maybe next time. People have taken notice. I arrived shortly after opening, but within an hour cars started rolling in. The word is out that Bread Bar serves great drinks. If you have a few minutes, it's more than worth your while to stop by. read more

Great little bar near Georgetown! Stopped in after a train ride on the silver flume. Awesome cocktails and super service. Quaint little spot that just makes you feel good all over read more

What a great little find! I had heard of this place from the Denver Passport and had been wanting to try it out on one of my weekend ski trip excursions so finally with warm weather upon us I made the stop in Silver Plume, an otherwise sleepy village. When walking in, the bar tender was warm and friendly and explained to my companion and me that we could sit where we liked and he would come to us and take our order shortly. The inside has seating for maybe twenty or so people, it's small and intimate so if this place gets busy, be prepared to make new friends. Since it was warm out, we opted to sit outside on the back patio at one of the community tables. The bar tender came and took our order and was helpful in making recommendations. I felt very comfortable and loved the casual setting of the place. As for the drinks themselves, they were delicious. Nothing that is going to re-write history but made with care and good flavor combinations. If you're looking for a secret spot in the mountains off the beaten place, make your way here. The charm of the building and the warmth of the bar tenders will make you feel like one of the cool kids who was let in on a secret. read more

An awesome hidden bar tucked behind Main Street in silver plume. It has a great vibe to it, easy to get to on the way back to Denver from the mountains, great drinks and friendly service. They have an interesting story. The building burned down and was re-built into a bread bakery about 40 years back using the original floor plan. The owners sold it and the new owners turned it into a bar, keeping all items. This place has a great, old mountain town vibe. Back patio is nice and had lots of dogs. I wish they had food, maybe some bread, but they only have drinks. read more

Authentic drinks and chill atmosphere. This place make you want to trade it all in and that's what two well made drinks will start whispering to you. The staff was welcoming and made you feel like family. What a site to see on a brisk winter day but would love to enjoy the patio this summer. read more

Definitely a unique experience. Artisan cocktails and some bottled beer. Crazy friendly bartenders (in a nice way). Most of the old bakery cabinets and hardware is still around so you feel like you are at a weird party. Seems to bring out the best in everyone there, it's easy to strike up a conversation with strangers. If you want a Martini I suggest you bring your own olives! read more

Awesome spot off the beaten path! You wouldn't expect such an amazing place that you would never know existed unless you're looking for it!

Great place, good beer, and friendly environment. We have been here many times and love it!

Just stopped for the first time, after trying to come here for years when it was Dram. Was pleasantly surprised. Luckily they still kept the decor that resembled the old Colorado mining town Silver Plume used to be. The bartenders were knowledgeable and the drinks were tasty and strong! The back patio is awesome too for little concerts and tastings they put on! Will definitely be back!! read more

Tiny bar, but has ambiance GALORE. They really paid attention to the details: hanging plants, books, the classiest beer fridge I've ever seen. Very nice people, too. Oh, and dog friendly! read more

What a great find in the mountains! Our friends love this place, and we stopped in to use our winter passports for drink deals. Super cute spot and very wintery vibe with very delicious drinks too! Definitely will be back on a trip home from skiing for some après ski :) read more

I only stumbled across this place as we were returning from riding at Keystone and we noticed a coupon for it in the Winter Warmer passport book. What a pleasant surprise! Killer craft cocktails made with care using mostly Colorado-based liquors and other ingredients. It's a cozy little spot on the corner, with big windows but an inviting interior with tons of hanging plants that give it a nice soft vibe. The other patrons were friendly and it had a "locals" vibe to it, but most of us were not from Silver Plume (pop. 120) bur rather passing thru via I-70. A cute hidden spot that you'll be pleasantly surprised by. I had 2 of the Clifford Griffins, a rye cocktail with Amaro and a red wine floater. Very good! read more

Wonderful cocktails. Great atmosphere. Super friendly staff. Who could ask more? While I'm not big on trendy spots, this one seems different. A friend recommended it so I thought I'd try it out and I really enjoyed it. It's a little gem in the wilderness. Worth the trip! read more

A great place to stop after a day of skiing! An adorable location, amazing deck, kind owners and excellent drinks. Don't drive by Silverplume without stopping by! read more
