We stayed at an Airbnb on Jefferson, Co after a long day of exploring we were looking for a local place to eat and have a few drinks. The Stagestop was a great spot for this. The local, small town atmosphere is amazing. Everyone was friendly and conversational. The bartender was authentic and talked to us about local things to do and history of Jefferson/Stagestop. He had fast and accommodating during our stay. We had a few drinks and wanted a bite to eat. On this day unfortunately there was only one option for food choice. Lucky for us the wings with the dry rub and BBQ were fantastic. They were well cooked, tender and full of flavor. We enjoy our experience at this saloon and would recommend it! Hopefully next time there is a few more food options for hungry adventurers. read more

A really nice neighborhood saloon! Wonderful atmosphere. There were maybe 8-10 people there including the 2 of us. I really liked the music and Colorado decor. It felt very homey. read more

Fun spot filled with neighbors who are just as likely to strike up a conversation with people passing through as they are their next door friends. read more

Stagestop Saloon is a rare gem in the middle of nowhere. I've seen it before during previous trips and always wanted to try this place. Our Airbnb lost internet and cable, so we decided to check it out to catch the Broncos game. They have 3 TVs for the games, and a pretty good selection of beers on tap. The food isn't fancy by any means, but I'd consider more of a bonus that they even have food available. The bartender was attentive and very friendly. The prices were reasonable and we tipped well. Would definitely come back! read more

Not a ton of food options, but what they do have is great for bar food and exceptional service! We stopped in near our Airbnb and were treated like family. Super small bar so it was a fun experience to feel included and get to talk to the locals. read more

Moved up to the area last year and have been wanting to try this place for a while. The owner's a nice guy and the beer is cold but the food is below average and the service is pretty poor. Long wait to order then 10 minutes to get our chips and salsa after we had to ask about it. Had to go to the bar to ask for another beer after being empty for a while. Had to go ask for more water as well. Cheapo chips, half of which were basically the crumbs from the bottom of the bag, and not enough salsa, although it was really good homemade salsa. 5 more minutes for the 2 orders of mozzarella sticks, which were pretty good. Ordered four burgers, wings, and a hot dog. Got two of the burgers, the dog and the wings for the three guys, then, not kidding, after we 3 finished our meals they brought out the 2 burgers for the ladies. Crazy. To top it off, their burgers were as hard as hockey pucks! The waitress didn't ask how we wanted them cooked, and no one but me specified, so apparently they assumed people like them hard and burned. I asked for my buffalo burger medium and got it well done. Luckily, a few minutes after putting in the order I asked the waitress if it came with cheese, since she didn't ask if I wanted any. Of course it didn't, so I had her add it. Cold bun and luke warm patty. Had to go ask for condiments as well. I guess the cook brings the food out, which she kinda just throws down or nearly tosses the baskets to you. She actually bumped one of the women in the head with her elbow while reaching in front of her, over the table, to hand a guy his order. The other guys burger was extra well done like the ladies, and the wings and dog were apparently so so. I tried my wife's and told her to send it back but she and the other girl were so hungry they ate parts of them, breaking a plastic fork in the process of trying to cut the open faced patty. No way I would have accepted them, hungry or not. Overall a pretty bad experience. Might stop in again sometime for the beer and a game of pool, but definitely won't be ordering any food. read more
