I have good news my friends as The Nugget which sits just down the street from Purgatory will be pouring all the classic drinks you desire after a day on the mountain. Adorned with ski and snowboard treasures from corner to corner, also sits a food truck pumping out some serious sliders. Sampled the tenderloin, crab cake, and zucchini sliders which were all excellent combined with garlic fries, you thought you'd just won the K-12 downhill with John Cusack.

The staff was nice but we had to push to get a table cleared for us. The pizza took 40 minutes to make. The crust was good but very thick. The topping were good, the marinara side was very good. The ambience is what you'd expect at a bar moderately loud. We might comeback if we stay at Purgatory again as it is close and convenient to the slopes.

Fantastic speakeasy find in dwntwn Durango!…read more A pw is required, but it's on their Insta. It's a functioning barber shop by day and awesome prohibition-era speakeasy by night. I was sat in the back room cuz the front bar was full. It was nice and quiet & there was an additional bar in the back. Great curated "author & bibliophile" themed libation menu. I had the St Vincent Millay (their version of a between the sheets) and it was made to classic perfection! They also have an extensive spirits menu; I always like to try local so I had a shot of 1874 San Luis Valley American Whiskey (a 3-Grain Whiskey using local rye, barley, and wheat, highlighting regional sourcing). Price-point is in line w/current mixologist cocktail costs. Definitely worth checking out!

We were wandering around downtown Durango late Tuesday morning looking for lunch and quickly…read morerealized many places are closed on Tuesdays and Wednesdays during the mid-April off-season. Thankfully, we came across Carver Brewing Co. and were happy to see it open. They offer a great variety of local beers, including options to take some to go. We tried the Double IPA and the Hazy--both were delicious. They also have wine and mimosas available if beer isn't your thing. Bo (or Beau) was our bartender and truly made the experience. He was knowledgeable, friendly, and had a genuine smile the entire time. His energy was infectious and really brightened the atmosphere. Definitely a must-stop when passing through Durango.

I never order dessert but I could not pass these up! Must try in Durango!

We sat outside and really enjoyed the relaxed, open-air setting. It was a great place to unwind after a day on the river. The atmosphere was very casual. We ordered food and drinks and spent time just hanging out together. The beer was great, and doing a flight made it easy to try a few different options before choosing a favorite. We enjoyed their Bavarian pretzels, pub chips, and flatbread pizzas. Overall, Ska Brewing was a great family-friendly stop after rafting. It's a fun, casual brewery with good beer, good energy, and a welcoming outdoor space. Definitely a spot we'd come back to if we're in Durango again.
