I'm a native of Pueblo but live in Colorado Springs. Hubby and I were in Pueblo today for business and had to stop in. We enjoyed the most popular SLOPPER! The green chile was flavorful and fresh cut fries. Absolutely no complaints on anything. Friendly staff, clean inside and out, clean bathrooms, background music perfect. Will definitely be back again. read more

This is a must visit when you come to Pueblo. They are famous for their slopper which is an open face burger smothered in red or green chili or both. You should add fries and it comes with cheese and onions. I love the frosty cold 22oz schooners and the inside vibe is just so cool with high back wooden booths and red vinyl fixed bar stools. Great service as well. read more

Sat outside. Service was good. Burger was good. Cheesecake was delicious. Crazy I have not eaten here yet!

Just recently went there found the staff super friendly and helpful. I'd visit again just because of that. I had the burger and chili special of the day. It wasn't bad. Would repeat to check out the other menu items. Nice to see history in a different way. read more

Gray's Coors Tavern - Time for some Monday night football. - Bars Near Me - Pueblo, Colorado

Came to this SoCo institution not knowing what to anticipate in their legendary Colorado dish. If you're hoping for valet service or crisp white tablecloths, I hate to break it to you, Gray's Coors Tavern is not that kind of destination. But that's the charm of it. This is the Steel City's castle of the working man's feast, where the food is hearty, no-nonsense, and served with pride. Enter. The. Slopper. The name alone sounds like something you'd see in a late-night infomercial. "Introducing: the Slopper! The mop that's guaranteed to clean any spill!" And yet, this mess of a dish is nothing short of legendary. It's a cheeseburger, smothered in a rich, spicy chili made from Pueblo chiles. It's unapologetic in caloric disregard, the kind of indulgence that has you questioning life choices, only to happily forget them by the last bite. And don't skimp on the French fries. They add balance to the whole thing, though honestly, the Slopper doesn't need any help in the indulgence department. Our waiter, despite his youthful energy, was on top of everything. Attentive, friendly, and impressively efficient. He made me feel as though I were in a place much more refined than I expected. I left pleased. Would I return? Oh, absolutely. Gray's isn't a glitzy, polished vibe you might find in Vail, but sometimes, darling, you need a little mess with your meal. The Slopper will stick with you, just like this place. read more

The staff was friendly and attentive, and now I know why the "Slopper" is a regional favorite! I love they feature local food producers in their ingredients. The bread used on the Steel City S.O.B. was sooo good. read more

This place was weird for me. We got quite a few things off the menu. I tried their Mexican food & it was lack luster/greasy. My partner on the other hand got a slopper & loved it. The sopapillas were phenomenal, I wish I had had more room to finish them! And the fried pickles were pretty good too. Our server was nice, but everyone was walking around like they were hung over or high, which wouldn't have bothered me if the food hit, but it was meh for me. I also found it weird they only served their Mexican items sometimes?? According to the menu anyways. We didn't try any drinks though, so maybe that's where they get ya read more

A Pueblo iconic place. As you enter the building, you can see the bar that stretches from one side of the building to the other. They have wonderful sports and Pueblo memorabilia throughout the restaurant and above the bar. The ancient booths feel like they've been there since the original restaurant opening in the 30s. Love all the pictures and signed memorabilia around the tables and know each one must have a story. The frosty scooners are ice cold and stay cold throughout the meal. When in Rome, so we ordered Coors Lights while we looked over the meals. Since this place known for their sloppers, I went with the regular meal which include their award winning green chili over a double cheeseburger. If you order your slopper with fries, they come on top of the slopper. We ordered a side of onion rings which were perfectly cooked. I love this place and the friendly faces. This may be my yearly must stop location. read more

Second year we traveled to Pueblo for a birthday slopper! Just like last year, the staff was amazing! Friendly and treated us like family. We realized last year that we over ordered and were stuffed. So we split the regular slopper and had sides of fresh chopped white onion and grilled onions. We again opted for the green chile and the food was just as awesome as last year. We added the fries on top and again were not disappointed! Burger Patty was perfectly grilled! A+ to the team! We also ordered a pitcher of beer and enjoyed sitting inside and enjoying the history of the locale! Next time we will sit outside! So much fun and great food! read more

I always want to like this place a lot more than I do. What's not to love? An old established local business, an iconic menu item. But then..... you get seated. I've gone a few times a year and then swear I'm not going back. Until I do. I was in on a Sunday afternoon. The barbacks and bussers hustle. Everyone else seems to be standing around. I was seated at the bar, a menu was thrown at me and no one ever took my drink order. People walked by but seemed to try as hard as they could to ignore me. They seem to have a "system" where no one is responsible for a section, so you may have one person take your order another person bring the food and maybe no one will really want to take your payment. Service is SLOW and the food coming out is not much better. This time, the place was slow. There were 5 table inside, a couple outside, I was the only one at the bar. I kept counting and recounting the staff. Couple of bussers, a manager, couple people in the kitchen and maybe 5 servers. For 7 tables and a single at the bar. I waited 15 minutes with no one acknowledging me, except for the manager who "seated" me at the bar. I finally walked out. I'm so sad Gray's Tavern, I really do want to like you. read more

Gray's Coors Tavern - Green chile slopper double no bun extra chile with fries on top - Bars Near Me - Pueblo, Colorado

First time in Pueblo and word on the street was that I had to try a 'Slopper'. So after getting several recommendations at great spots to enjoy one we landed at Gray's. Felt very welcome during our visit as we got a booth quick and our waiter was on top of his game with drinks fast, knowledge of the menu etc... In the Western NY area a 'Slopper' is a tad bit like Rochester's garbage plate. My view of the Slopper is a cheeseburger with green/pork chili poured over the top. I added chopped onions and fries on top which was available as an add/on in the menu. I could not have been more satisfied with my first try! Try the fried pickles appetizer as well! Inside was rustic, but very cool as well with plenty of wall hangings etc... Was looking for a shirt to buy there but all their souvenir merchandise was SOLD OUT! No stars taken off for that, but obviously it's in demand for visitors to take home. read more

This place is a Pueblo fav! I had the "chili slopper". Since the last time I was there, they have added "outdoor" seating. Service was good and as always, the place was crowded. This is more of a "man" place than a "lady" place. The man I was with made this choice. lol This would not be my "first" choice place, but fun every now and then. read more

I am honest as always. I ordered a double slopper. I was asked if I wanted fries I stated yes (separate order). I requested chili and cheese be placed on the fries also. What I received was a double slopper with MAYBE 10 fries in my slopper dish. I understand times are tough and they might have to cut corners to combine two orders in one order to give you less chili and cheese for the money (it was a separate order) I don't believe this is the proper way to do things, if you would only verbalize this is how they do it. When I questioned it I was told the cook said he gave a lot of fries ?? Not even 10 fries in my original order is not worth ordering. The picture will say it all. Get clarification I failed to do so. They were not happy I asked‍ read more

Well let me start off by saying I've missed Pueblo green chili so much! I have not been home in four years and you better believe I was not going back to Cali without stopping by Gray's for a slopper! I have been coming to Gray's since Donny was known as Mr.Gray and my 3rd grade teacher. And... they still make the best slopper and green chili west of the Mississippi! The service has not changed it's still amazing as ever. The staff is so awesome, my drink was never empty and you better believe that's a big one in my book. I was so glad to see the place didn't change either. The booths still look the same and all the pictures are still on the walls along with all the local high school memorabilia... just amazing. Bottomline is don't even think about visiting Pueblo without stopping by Gray's because they were and always will be the best place to get a slopper. read more

We came here for the Christmas style Double Sloppers! Christmas style meaning one side with red chili and the other was green chili! Double meaning 4 beef Pattie's with the buns drowned in chili YUM!!! Fries, hand cut style, were good! We also ordered the churros which were fresh and good. The sopapillas were hard to love because we've had really really fresh ones in Santa Fe. Fried pickles were awesome! Sliced is the way to go! I hate fried spears haha! BUT I would still eat it if given! Place was big! Lots of space for a group with outdoor seating. Note: booths were on the smaller side. Lots of decorations and charm to the place for sure! There was also a bar set up so you can have your drink and eat there too! read more

The best and only slopper I've ever eaten! The half-slopper was plenty of food for me, with green chili (orangey) and onions slopped on top of a 3-ounce burger patty, slice of American cheese, and an open-faced bun. It doesn't look fancy at all but is really good! Recommendation: order fries on the side and dip them into the slopper chili. The fries are soft. Since no one's really heard of the slopper outside of Pueblo, it's pretty amusing when you tell your out-of-town friends what you ordered for lunch/dinner that day. The tavern itself is pretty old-school, with a cool "Coors Tavern" logo etched into the mirrors behind the bar, tons of tables, pictures and memorabilia on the walls, and seats at the bar. read more

Got a slopper. Burger and bun burnt, hardly any green chile. Fries burnt. The service was great but I won't go back. Not for $12.50 for a one-patty slopper, an extra $3.50 for fries, and $3.74 for a soda. read more

Welp it was 100 in pueblo. Maybe 125 on the street. Stopped in at Grays and It was nice and cool in there. All the bar ladies looked pissed off. They were doing the look irritated so people think your busy routine. Finally the bar guy came over so I ordered the Slopper. The flavor was great and the value was ok. ( throw a few fries on it - i don't need the whole order ). Over all pretty good. I would return. Good place to watch sports. Definitely feels like you are in Pueblo back in the day. Its dark and barry. read more

i'm from Kansas City, Missouri. my boyfriend and I came for the holidays to visit Pueblo, Colorado and I heard that this place was supposed to be the best in town to order a slopper. when the guy brought the plate out, I thought he was bringing me soup. The meat was hard and there was no taste to the green chili. It actually looked like pink throw up. I was very disappointed. I was expecting something completely different. I will say, though that the service was great and waiters & waitresses were very pleasant and we're working hard together. read more

Okay. Just okay. Typical tavern, beer was okay, and the slopper experience was okay. Reminded me a lot of the Cincinnati chili experience. I must have eaten it incorrectly or not the Puebloan way. Fried pickles were good, but other than that...nothing more for me to talk about regarding their food. Parking lot had ample space. Environment was "sticky" and dark. Staff was friendly. With a buddy or coworker this would be an okay place to eat. Family...no. Seek elsewhere for the slopper. I will likely try the slopper again elsewhere to get a better comparison if it was just theirs or the way I ate it. read more
