We stopped by Bye's Ale House hoping for their green chili, only to find it wasn't on the brunch menu. Since we hadn't been here in five years, I mentioned to our waiter how much I was craving a bowl, and he went out of his way to make it happen. That level of service alone made the visit memorable. I also ordered the Velvet Smoke mezcal cocktail, and wow, it was exceptional. Smooth, perfectly balanced, and not too strong. The smoky notes were present but not overpowering, and the nixta slate liqueurs, or heat and bitters brought everything together beautifully. Great service, great drinks, and a team that's willing to go the extra mile. Definitely worth the stop. read more

Stopped in here as we were passing through Pueblo on the freeway. It was well worth the stop. The location is gorgeous on the Arkansas River and the ambience inside is quite nifty. I particularly enjoyed the restricted gates down by the washrooms. Our server was friendly and attentive but the restaurant seemed slightly short staffed. A great selection of beers. Our food was very good. I was surprised at how salty the bun was on my veggie burger sandwich but it was still salty in a good way. The food took longer than average to come out, and that's the reason for the 4 out of 5 stars. We waited over 30 minutes for the food, and it didn't seem particularly busy, though the server seemed to be covering a lot of acreage with tables both inside and outside under her responsibility. She still did a great job, though. I look forward to stopping in again the next time we're passing through town. read more

Went in on Sunday May 3, 2026. Had a server come to our table and take our drink order but no drinks ever arrived. The server said she wasn't actually our server and wasn't sure who was. A couple of larger groups came in after us ( just 2 ) and they got stellar service. We left and went to Shamrock. Shamrock was FANTASTIC!! read more

Stopped in over the weekend with our dog and loved it. Located on the Arkansas Riverwalk, it's perfect for people-watching if you can snag an outdoor seat. Housed in the old police station, they kept some jail-era decor on display -- very cool touch. Solid beer selection (their Leadhead IPA was excellent). Food is outstanding -- highly recommend their Sunday brunch (10-2). The Musso Bruch Burger came highly recommended and didn't disappoint: double smash patties pressed thin, cheddar, local chiles, and a fried egg -- super messy but totally worth it. The green chili had the perfect spice level. Friendly service and a great new brunch spot in Pueblo -- we'll be back. read more

Took my daughter here for her graduation dinner. She ordered the $14 grilled cheese, didn't like the cheese they used, and after one bite we asked if they could swap it for plain American. They did then charged an extra $8 for the replacement. I left zero tip at the kiosk and noted why. A few days later my credit card statement shows they went back and added an $18 tip on their own. That's an unauthorized charge, full stop. Disputing it with my bank. Won't be back. read more

Excellent pit stop in Pueblo before driving home! Service was wonderful and the Vineyard Odyssey Salad I ordered had the perfect ratio of ingredients to dressing. With mixed greens, red onion, cucumber, bell pepper, blue cheese, strawberries, heirloom cherry tomatoes, candied pecans, berry vinaigrette, and balsamic reduction - how could you not enjoy? I didn't add protein to my salad this time, but chicken sounds like it could go well. It was my second time in Pueblo (first time was on the drive down) and I enjoyed both quick visits. Brues is located along the riverwalk, so you can go for a stroll if it's not too cold. We were here in the winter and rushed back to our car, but I would definitely come back again. read more

Popped in for a quick lunch while on a road trip. They are located in a historic building that used to be the jail. It is right on the river walk with plenty of outdoor seating to take advantage of the lovely Colorado weather. The holiday decorations were really nice. Someone had taken the time to wrap twinkle lights around the air ducts and beams throughout the restaurant. It was a lovely sight. Our server answered all our questions and we put in our beverage orders. I love a good dark beer and their Kellerbier really hit it. My husband had the Haus Lager, a helles. We both enjoyed our beers. They were spot on to style. I ordered the Brawtzel. It consisted of a veal brat with a garnish of sauerkraut, Vienna mustard, a pretzel and pueblo chile cheese sauce. Everything was tasty and paired well with my beer. My husband was going to get a BLT, but upon asking, found the bread for that sandwich is not toasted. It was a cold day and he wanted something warm so he got a grilled cheese and chips, which hit the spot for him. It was a chilly, windy day. I would like to visit again when I can sit outside and enjoy the river. read more

Meet the slopper. It is full of flavor, crispy fries, fresh vegetable and green chili for spice. It was sofa king delicious. I ordered the single and that was more than enough for me. I went into a food coma after the meal. The slopper is a local dish and I highly recommend it. read more

Will definitely come back! We walked our dog along the river walk and stopped here to have lunch on the patio. Perfect spot for us since it's dog friendly. We ordered the Hawaiian pollo and split it. Plenty of food for two of us and it was delicious. The fries were the right amount of salty and crunchy too! They also have a bakery inside so we picked up a cinnamon roll to go. The rolls are giant! read more

Brues Alehouse was a great spot for our group! I ordered the slopper and a raspberry wheat beer--both were delicious and hit the spot. We had six people in our party, including a couple of kids, and the atmosphere was fun and welcoming without being too loud--perfect for watching football and enjoying great food. Our server, Matt, was fantastic--friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed. We'll definitely be back! read more

Food is always good as is the service. Recently went back and was caught off guard with $32.00 dip sandwich. That's ridiculous and the owner should stop hiking up prices. Its good establishment but thats rip off im calling them out on that. This isn't beverly hills ca food at all and charging that much for a single sandwich is a joke. read more

A year later and everything remains the same! Service, food, drink is always high quality and the ambiance outside by the Riverwalk is so peaceful. It is our tradition to come to Brues and walk around the river every time we visit Pueblo. read more

First let me say I want to give this a 5 star but the issue with the meal change was the only issue. Let me explain wife wanted to change order less then 5 minutes after we ordered. The server said ok then came back and said they could not change it. I said OK give us the other item also 3 entrée. Which took 45 minutes, they claimed the chicken had been cooked for the teriyaki bowl. That is why we could not cancel the order. Then it took 45 min... hmmmm anyone else find that strange. Anyway the teriyaki bowl and the chicken was excellent. The extra entrée ordered was the Prime Rib Sandwich.. OMG that gets a 10!! So good!! The teriyaki bowl was excellent after we had them bring more teriyaki (which was an extra an charge) I do not like teriyaki I could not taste that.. NOTE: to cooks add more Teriyaki for tje teriyaki bowl even the server says that happens all the time... NOW: on to the main event the slopper burger OMG burgers topped with green chili see menu for description (Pic below) and the picture of the sandwich... looks like POOO what taste GREAT!! To bad someone tries being greedy because the no on the change, 45 minute wait for chicken made and an up charge for sauce because the dish was not made correctly. Do not call it a teriyaki bowl if it does not have teriyaki. Then the nerve to charge for a small cup of teriyaki. Over all was great food and service just a lot of strange things that impacted the review. read more

The burgers here are fantastic, the fries are less than desirable. The fries doc the point along with the homemade ketchup. All I can taste is malt vinegar. I think the idea is good, but I think it's too heavy with the vinegar. The fries were soggy and greasy. At a brew house I would expect some delicious hot crispy fries. It feels like they fried them in oil that wasn't hot enough. Not a pleasant eating experience. The Hazy IPA I had was DELICIOUS not sure if it's local or not, but it was very crisp and fruity. Overall it's a good place but be prepared to spend some money. I think if they dropped the price by a dollar or two of the burgers it's would be a bit more worth it. I was going to give this place 3 stars but the server was fantastic. read more

This was my first time dining at Brues, after stopping in for drinks a few times and it was a great experience. We came in on a night when a concert was going on and was told there was only one table available, as the rest were reserved or we'd need to sit outside. The table we got was a bit cramped and small, but we made it work for the four of us. Our group ordered drinks and I asked for a mocktail. The waitress said she'd talk to the bar about what mocktails they had and when she came back with our drink order she gave me a mocktail. I'm not sure what it was, but it had a ginger taste and was pretty good! I'd say the only downfall was not getting to pick or knowing what I was drinking lol. We ordered 2 rounds of pretzels and the shishito peppers for apps. High points for us were the dipping sauces, the green chili queso (pretzels) and the homemade ranch (peppers). I ordered the steak salad, it was fresh and yummy! I loved the creamy goat cheese and the balsamic dressing. Our group ordered burgers and the dip sandwich, everyone was happy with their food and the portions. No complaints! Everything came out pretty fast too. We had our eye on the cheesecake for dessert, but they sold out so we settled for the macarons. Group faves were the pumpkin and gingerbread. Overall this is a great place to meet friends for dinner - we will definitely be back! Pro tip - stop at the Clink before for drinks. They are really good! read more

Good food and service, in a great setting. The only downside is the overpriced drinks and beer.

Where does one go after an early morning of work and then a long day of travel??? An alehouse of course, even though I don't drink. This place once was a jail, and they pay respect to the past with some of the decor. They have a stage for live music and fantastic service. Jenny was my waitress, and even with how busy she was, I was her third table in 5 minutes since I didn't want to sit at the bar. This place has burgers, sandwiches, and salads to choose from. I was all set to be a good boy and have a salad until Jenny told me the night specials......So, I had stuffed dates wrapped in pork shoulder for an appetizer. Then I had the toungetwister Philly, not the real name, but it sounded like a toungetwister. All I can say about tonight's dinner is....WOW!!!! It was so good that I was a little sad when it was gone. If you do enjoy a pint, this place is a local brewery, and the other patrons appeared to be enjoying the drafts. I was a little sad they didn't offer a microbrewed root beer, but everything else made up for that. #thanksunclejoe read more

The place is pretty and in a nice location. There was a lot of staff and a lot of empty tables. We were in at 3 pm on a Sunday afternoon. When we interrupt a staff member to ask about a table, they said 20 minutes. 40 minutes later my group is hangers, still waiting outside watching empty tables collect dust. The beer was average. Based on the wait time, we were very skeptical about how lone it would take to get food. We finally gave up and left. Maybe try the a different place if you don't have and hour to wait or get on the wait list before you do the river walk. read more

The food was great! Our waitress was very nice & attentive. We ate outside by the riverwalk & it was very relaxing.

Worst service ever! 45 minutes wait, and the table that came in 15 minutes after us got served. Bartender, I asked for a short drink, they brought tall, and to correct it, I watched he pour it into a short glass.‍‍‍‍ I asked her to remake it, took 15 minutes and it tasted like straight tonic. Prices are really high. We did not stay for food, because it took sooo long. 1 star. read more

Perfect spot on the river walk for some good food and drink! Staff was attentive and service was spot on. Sat outside on a sunny day and the server's know nearly every person and animal passing by... Got the Brawtzel which was a smaller sized warm pretzel along with a veal brat and sauerkraut along with 2 dipping sauces. The pueblo chili sauce was great but the vienna mustard was less memorable. Did get a nice cold Haus Lager which went perfectly with the experience and made it a better day. Cheers to my next visit read more

We had great service and exceptional food, loved the fig and goat cheese burger and the 2 flights of beer. The view from the patio was so relaxing and peaceful even with the strong winds. Can't wait to check out the summer menu of the new drafts. Definitely a quality spot! read more

VEGAN REVIEW There were kitchen issues, so there was a limited menu. Would have to try again to give a fuller review. I got a salad which had no protein once the cheese was removed + they forgot the nuts. Service was good. This used to be a jail. They have lots of law enforcement paraphernalia & side room where the jail cell bars/doors are still there. Not sure how I feel about that... read more

I came here with a group of coworkers for a weeknight dinner and gathering. We had the back room to ourselves, which was spacious and equipped with TVs and high ceilings. We started with hummus and veggies for the group and then ordered various dishes for dinner. The drinks were great, and everyone seemed to enjoy the place. Interestingly, this restaurant used to be a county jail, and it still has some decor to reflect that history. There's even a small hotel attached where you can book a room that looks like a jail cell. Very cool! read more

Super good food. We always come here especially when it's not so nice out. Right on the Riverwalk. They've got a heated patio and are dog friendly too! In the old Pueblo jail. The inside vibes reflect this with barred doors. Kinda cool. The service is always spot on. Had the prime rib dip with the extra chili and onions. The bread roll it's on was one of the best, soft, but not too soft. Prime rib was super yummy. Their fries are delicious too, and I'm not a fan of fries. read more

We stopped by here driving through pueblo and had a really good meal. I tried the soft pretzel for an appetizer which was good and hot. For my main meal I had the French dip with peppers and onions. The French dip was good and the fries were perfectly salty. My dad got the chili cheese burger and he said that it was probably in the top 10 burgers he has ever had and he's been to a lot of places. He even said the trip to Pueblo is worth the burger. Not so sure I would want to drive all the way to Pueblo for a burger but that's what he said. read more

The service was somewhat slow, and it took quite some time for the food to be prepared. In the end, it was worth the wait because the food was delicious. Some dishes everyone enjoyed: The burgers Teriyaki bowl Fries Parmesan wings and Korean BBQ wings Chocolate cream puff (from the bakery) We will pass on the Shirley Temples next time, too heavy on the syrup and no cherries. Mostly everyone enjoyed the Vineyard Odyssey salad too, but if you're not a fan of blue cheese, skip it, or see if it can be substituted. I wish they would announce a final call on the coffee drinks, I really wanted to try one. It closed at some point during our dinner. The restaurant has indoor and outdoor seating. It's right next to the river walk, a pretty view. read more

Second time in a row, terrible clueless service. Waiter yet again confused about when to bring out food. My wife got her sandwich early I'm still waiting for my slice of pizza. A SLICE OF PIZZA!

Wasn't sure if we were going to come after hearing the quesadillas were not too good but I'm glad we did. The chicken fingers and fries are good, still good the next day too. They brew their own so there is a variety of beers to choose from. It is definitely a nice place, with plenty of space, and you can pull up a stool at the bar if you need to.
