    Got a pizza from here and it was overpriced ($30 for a simple pizza) and charged for tip automatically, even though it was a take out order. On top of that, slipped on their slick stairs going down, got a hurt back, and every single slice went in the dirt. Went in and told them what happened, to see if they could replace the pizza and the guy responded "what do you want me to do about it". You'd think when a tip was included, so would some hospitality, but that was not the case. Will not spend my money here again.

    Great service. Great atmosphere. Excellent food. Highly recommend the wings. Landmark in Durango north county.

    I thought I wrote a review for this place when we went in March. The last night we were there, we didn't want to cook and craved some wings and pizza. Found this place and it is my type of hole-in-the-wall. Walked in to some great music that continued through the night (can't remember which employee soundtrack, but kudos...especially with LCD!). It was not very crowded on a Thursday night, but that allowed us to play shuffle board while we waited for our food. We ordered the Homecoming Queen pizza, bread sticks, and Colorado wings. We almost got another pizza, but this was plenty for 5 of us. The bread sticks are perfectly seasoned and got us started while we played shuffleboard and drank our beers. Then came the wings that were dry, big enough, and cooked to perfection. The pizza was solid and we had enough to bring a couple slices home before the car ride home. After dinner, we shot some pool and the girls pinned their dollar bills on the wall to find the next time we are back!

    Just minutes from Purgatory Resort. Opens at 4 and if you don't get your pizza order in between 4 and 5, your pizza might not be ready until 8:30pm. People love this place. Bartenders/employees super friendly and judging by the same faces 2 days in a row, the regulars love this place. Pizza was really good. Wings were alright.

    This place was expensive --the bar attendant/staffer was rude. The wait was about 1:45 and they decided to force a pick up gratuity which I disagree with 100%. There two items were over $50 and I had to endure rudeness from the establishment staff. The food was yeasty and more dough than anything. Situationally I'd rather drive to get food a few more miles or skip it. Never again, nor do I recommend as a foodie and expert yelper I know a raw deal when I see it and this place gets a big no thanks, never again for me and my family! Customer service is everything and shouldn't be abused or taken for granted.

    Fantastic if you're into medicore pizza, predictable, cheap drinks served by exceptionally rude staff in a cramped, dingy atmosphere.

We started with the Bavarian pretzel, which was served with beer cheese and mustard. It was delicious and fresh! I then had the southwestern burger, which is always a favorite of mine because of the green chilis. The burgers are always cooked nicely (I order medium) and I was able to substitute a side salad, which was easily one of the best side salads I've ever had at a brewery. We are doing dry January, so no beers this time, but had a lovely hop water that they brew there and even left with a growler full. Highly recommend Steamworks for an authentic Durango experience or if you're just trying to catch a game or hangout with friends. It definitely has fun, local brewery vibes. We will definitely be back!

    There are a lot of breweries to choose from in Durango, and during our family vacation we tried…read morequite a few of them. One of our favorites was Steamworks Brewery in downtown Durango. The location was perfect for us because we were able to easily walk there from our hotel. We were lucky enough to get outdoor seating, which made the experience even better. It was great to sit outside and enjoy the beautiful Durango weather, and people watch while having dinner. We decided to do a beer flight so we could sample a variety of their beers before committing to a full pint. It was a great way to try different styles, and we each ended up finding a favorite. Everything we tried was really good. My husband liked their Buffalo wings and whiskey burger, I enjoyed the seared tuna bowl, and our kids liked their pizza. It is definitely a busy and popular spot, especially during peak vacation times, so I would recommend putting your name in early and expecting there could be a wait. In our opinion it was worth it. Steamworks had a great casual vibe that worked well for both families and adults wanting to enjoy a brewery experience. The downtown location adds to the charm, and it definitely felt like one of those must visit spots while in Durango.

We walked in and were immediately greeted by one of the bartenders and told to sit wherever we liked. We found a nice booth off to the side of the bar area. Our server Patrick stopped by the booth and pointed us to the food menu in the chalkboard. We also had another server but I didn't catch her name. They were both very friendly and attentive. I ordered the special for the day. A green chili Rueben & fries. Wow, this sandwich was so delicious! What a creative combination of flavors. Even the slaw in the Rueben included the green chilis. The fries were hot and crispy. My husband ordered the spicy BBQ pulled pork tacos. He said the tacos were amazing and the flavors were off the charts. They were topped with a slaw and pickles. The side of "tortilla chips" had a dusting of a very flavorful spice. Not sure what it was but very tasty. Looking over the menu, this restaurant has some very creative dishes. We can't wait to stop by again! My husband ordered
