Crazy when you find a place and have a great experience, then check Yelp and see bad reviews. Well I had an excellent experience! Amber was my attentive waitress and Ryson my dutiful server. Both were very friendly and lovely to talk to. I picked a spot on the upper patio, but this place is big! Three levels including a cool arcade room. Oskar Blues has several locations but this is my first visit to any. I grabbed a "Dave's Light Lager" which hit the spot after a long hike. They were even nice enough to bring out a free appetite hush puppies! These were delicious and very crispy, and the sauce was tasty and refreshing. They have a large menu and lots of good options. I grabbed a Pulled Pork sandwich, with fries. The food came out in good time and was fresh. Fries were tasty and pork was loaded high! Really hard to be critical but I could've loved more bbq sauce. The meat was flavorful but almost too much and threw off the slaw balance a bit. Staff was super nice and I can definitely see myself coming back when I'm in Lyons. Thanks for the great time! read more

The cat fish bites were so good. Fresh beet salad very satisfying. Smoked wings tasty. Sadly the kids fish (greasy & disappointing) but chips good. Service ok. Crowded outside but humid so inside was comfy. read more

My son and his wife brought us to this place during our visit to Colorado. Right from the start the service was amazing and friendly. Team work was apparent as Austin greeted us and got us started with drinks (helping out Eric). Had to try Dale's Ale. Delicious. We then shared a bunch of appetizers. We did the Nachos with steak (cheese sauce was amazeballs and the steak was excellent), roasted beets (fantastic), fried pickles (delicious), and then Austin brought us by a plate of Hush Puppies (best Hush Puppies we have ever had). We also ordered a cup of their Gumbo to try. Incredibly tasty!! For main courses, my wife and I had the Prime Rib Dip (Delicious), my son had the Spicy Chicken Sandwich (fried-he loved it), my daughter-in-law had a burger that she loved. Loved the set up of the place. Very open and airy. Just an outstanding lunch & experience. Thank you Eric & Austin. read more

Great place to stop at on your way out of Estes Park. Plenty of seating and friendly service. Food was decent but lacked a bit of flavor. Restaurant had 3 levels and a great vibe. read more

The service there was not very good. And the food was slow to come out and not even good.

Designated Dales is a pretty good near beer. The "Realest" near Pilsner with a nice slightly fruity flavor and none of that chalky aftertaste that NA beers are know for. Also, the OG Dales and Dales IPA are more different than I realized. read more

This is our go-to spot in Lyons for the most part. The service is usually great, very friendly. The food is good as well, but the flies were kind of crazy this summer! Love the drink selection and we'll keep returning! read more

We were passing through this cute town and stopped to eat here. My husband heard it was good. We had the hazy IPA's and a taster of the raspberry blonde. They were both delicious. We ordered the smoked wings with sauce on the side. They were SO GOOD! They didn't need sauce with them. Then were ordered the green chili soup and their special, pozole. We shared both soups and couldn't decide which one was better. They were both terrific. The staff and waiter were very friendly. If we ever travel in this area again, we will come back. read more

Service was amazing! Food was great and the beers on tap were incredible. Kids chicken tenders: great portion and good quality! 5/5 Etouffe : this was just ok. Creamy but not as remarkable as some have been. Flavor lacking but I did like they didn't have toooo much rice like sometimes 3/5 Sandwiches- I didn't try but reportedly they were delish :) Ambiance was a little meh but it was totally dead on a Sunday early afternoon - went in the downstairs entrance and couldn't then tell if the place was open! However waitstaff friendly and food good bar food, I would just avoid the fancy stuff. read more

We were invited to Oskar Blues Grill & Brew 8/21/25 by the bride & groom for a pre-wedding meet up of out-of-town guests. They picked a great spot. We sat on the front porch. There is also an inside bar & dining area And another larger room in the back. The bartender Brett H. was friendly and helpful as we navigated their great beer selection of 7 Oskar Blues Beers & 6 Dale's Pale Ales (their first beer). Apps & lunches were had by all. We had Chicharonnes ($9) w/ hot sauce for dipping & Chicken Caesar salad ($16). I enjoyed their OB Mama's Little Pils ($7.25/pint). I had their very good Dale's Ale previously. We stopped in again on Sat 8/2325 after our all day visit to nearby Rocky Mountain National Park. Exploring is thirsty work. Very relaxing atmosphere for our afternoon visit. Hours: 11am-2am, much different than the other Colorado places we visited that all closed at 9pm. Highly recommended after our first visit. Thanks again to Brett H. & the rest of Oskar's staff.

Terrible food. Terrible service. We used to come here every time we're in Lyons, and it used to be fantastic. So sad! Hopefully whatever changes took place can be fixed. read more

Server (young girl with glasses and blond hair) was extremely rude and seemed to hate to be bothered my taking our order. With service like that, it doesnt really matter how good the food is. We wont be back. read more

Amazing, fresh food. Attentive and friendly service. Drinks are tasty, too. (Also it is right next to a pinball venue). Perfect day!

Came in for a late lunch at 2 o'clock. Sat for 15 minutes and no one came to greet us take a drink order or our food order. There was a table next to us wrapping up their meal and a server walk by three times without acknowledging us. About 10 minutes after being seated, another table was seated in our area and they were greeted within two minutes. We waited five more minutes and still no one came so we left, we weren't going to beg for someone to serve us. So disappointing we were really looking forward to Oskar Blues. read more

This used to be the spot in Lyons. I have great memories here of awesome food, great service, and a fun atmosphere. I stopped in this afternoon to have a late lunch with my wife and son. We waited by the host stand for maybe 10 minutes for sometime to acknowledge us. A few employees walked by without even a hello. We ended up leaving and going to another spot down the street. Really bummed because I was excited to show this place to my family since they had never been. What happened?? Update: I emailed Oskar's as the business manager suggested and didn't get a reply. read more

Over the course of the last several visits to Oskar Blues in Lyons, we have become less and less pleased with the changes in the menu selections and the food. Two visits previous to this last visit, had the salmon, and was sick by the time we got home. Previous visit after that, having the OB Burger on a GF bun was passable. This last visit was without a doubt the coup de gras of really bad food. I ordered the dinner portion of their 'Gumbo' . First of all, when it came out and they put it on the table in front of me I was beginning to wonder if they had the wrong order. I've never seen gumbo that is grayish-brown. My husband had ordered a cup of the gumbo and tasted his before I tasted mine. He just stared at me waiting for my reaction. After I tasted mine, I understood why he was waiting to say something. It was absolutely the most disgusting excuse I have ever put in my mouth, for something that's supposed to be 'gumbo'. It was tasteless gravy with a glop of rice in the middle. I think it had two maybe three thin little slices of sausage that had very nominal taste. I think I found two or three dime size bits of meat that I think were chicken, but it was really hard to tell what it was because it was so tasteless. When the waiter came, I told him very politely that that was the worst 'gumbo' I'd ever had in my life. I know how to make real roux based creole gumbo; with actual chicken (you can see and taste), real andouille sausage, and vegetables. I would have been ashamed to offer this greyish-brown tasteless mess to anyone...... much less a paying customer! I am chiding myself for not taking a picture of the dish. To their credit, they took my dish off the bill. Especially appropriate since most of it was left in the bowl.... even after trying to give it some 'flavor' by using Sriracha sauce. read more

We stopped here after a day in Estes. Dustin our server was amazing, and the food was very very good. Would recommend!!!!

We just left and have to say, we didn't experience any of the issues recent reviews said. The beer (as expected) was great. The spicy chicken sandwich and the pizza was delicious. Loved the interior decor, very on point for a brewery. Service was prompt and the service was very nice. After hitting up the pinball arcade next door it was nice to be able to walk over here and get food and a brew before heading back on the road. read more

We tried Oskar Blues Grill after a 20 mile bike ride. Great place to grab a cold beverage & lunch with some friends. Our table enjoyed the Prime Rib Sandwich, The Happy Hippy Sandwich, House Salad w/cup of Gumbo soup & Salad w/ Grilled Chicken! All excellent choices for lunchtime; we enjoyed fresh Oskar Blues draft beer. Our waitress CC was very attentive and efficient for our orders. Would definitely go back. read more

Everything seems to taste better (Beer included) after a Hike right??? Welp after hiking the twin sisters we all decided to stop for a beer at Oskar Blues....and it really hit the spot. I really liked their Mutant X beer...delicious hoppy and fruity. We also had their pretzels and nachos....now while I cant say it's the best. I can surely say that it hit the spot...and for Lyons it is pretty darn good. Service is fantastic: Thank you for letting me sample suds. Ambiance is great with good tunes a playing. read more

Great place for a casual meal paired with a beer. Tons of space both inside and outside including a downstairs live music area/bar. They have a good food menu including typical bar/American favorites and pizzas. We ordered their version of a Supreme pizza; it came stuffed to the brim with toppings and could easily feed a family of 4. Their appetizer soft pretzel is a must-get. Friendly staff, efficient service. Parking is available along their storefront or on the streets nearby. read more

Oskar Blues is a massive place and there are so many seating areas, inside and out. One of the things I was hoping to do was to cozy up to an outside spot and find a warm fire pit to enjoy a beer. It was cold when we visited and folks must have had the same idea, lol. All of the cozy fire pit and/or gas fire spots were taken. So, we headed back in and found a spot at the bar. Interesting tidbit here, there is one place to order and then once place to pick up your order, much like when you're at Starbucks. This simple process allows the beer tenders to have speed and efficiency with tackling orders, picking up empties and keeping the line moving very quickly. Nice job here. I'd love to return on a warmer day and find a perfect spot to relax and watch the birds outside. We shall return! read more

Sat at the bar and Max took great care of us. Super friendly and knowledgeable about the beers and things to do around town. Loved the beers and the wings that he suggested. Great experience!!! read more

Since Dale brought this place to life I have been coming here. We used to come up on the bus and party the night away. On my latest visit, much has changed. It's lost the spark, it's no longer the energetic hot spot it once was. The decor is muted, the staff if down even the food has fallen. The beers remain close to the same but the passion for them is gone. They are no longer held high and praised as a product of hard work. I have to assume this is due to the sale to the Monster group but I could be wrong. read more

This is the worst jambalaya I ever had.. Supposed to have andouille sausage chicken as well as shrimp. I got chicken two pieces of andouille sausage and zero shrimp . If you're going to advertise those three ingredients then they better well be in the order Terrible food threw it out in disgust. Come on, make the recipe do it well and have something to be proud of. Not a hard dish, actually derives from a poor man's dish, the scraps of other quality food. You need to get it right and it's not hard. Don't bother ordering just make it yourself and you will be happy. Open up your own stand and do better. Did I mention I spent 20$ on this 10$ dish? Despicable! read more

Not a memorable experience. Years ago tho place was amazing, but it's so different now. The food is poor to mediocre and the atmosphere is sterile and unappealing. We did have a fantastic server but she could not really make up for the baseline of bleh that this place has become. Sad. But I've recently been to the Lyons location and it still has the Vibe and the great food! read more

Food we had was fantastic, my wife had their Reuben, had fish and chips. The service was great and of course they have a list of great beer.

Went there today with a group of friends. I had a 21$ tab I gave the bartender 30 and I never got the change. Do your bartenders just decide their own tips or what? Service absolutely sucked read more

Oskar Blues is the place to go after a long hike! Especially when it's hot out and you need a nice cold beer! We were seated right away on the outside patio (had it to ourselves at lunch time) , and our waitress brought us water right away! We ordered an Eeyore Mule, and an Oskar Lager (they were temporarily out of the Mama Pils which I had wanted). Lunch was a tasty and fresh Spicy Chicken Sandwich, and some of the best Fish & Chips I've seen in awhile! The waitress came to check on us often, food and beer was delicious. She even brought out a half glass of the Mama Pils after it was tapped. Great lunch and one of my favorite spots in Lyons! Great, friendly environment perfect for family, friends and just relaxing with a good beer! read more

Cameron for dinner we sat in the main dining and bar area. Music was loud and they had a live band as well so not the vibe hearing 2 different songs at the same time. We ordered smoked wings and a prime rib sandwich. I tried a wing it was dry and overcooked on the second bite of the wing I bit into a feather guess jo time to prep. I took 1 bite of the sandwich and thought I was just no recovering from the feather. I took a minute to have some water and picked up the sandwich and smelled it and the beef was so rancid it was shocking. I had my husband smell it and he gagged. Took 10 minutes to talk to someone. They did comp the meal but I am very concerned for anyone who may have eaten there today. read more

Food was delicious and unexpectedly interesting: great service and an outdoor seating option

Awesome food and service!!! Definitely glad we stopped after a long day of hiking! Come see them definitely worth it!!!

Service was great, located right next to one of Colorado's largest pinball arcades! A great stop before you hit Estes Park. The food is typical bar food but still good. They have a few arcade games downstairs so that's cool. Very cute place to check out. read more

So if you aren't having their Rueben with the andouille sausage, you are missing out on the best item on their menu. We always go there after a hike in the mountains, and it's always a great respite and recharge. However, could y'all clean the place up a little more between tables? It's often a bit dingy. read more

Great service and great food! The waitresses were really friendly and helpful, and even gave some nice recommendations for food and drinks. It was nice out and we were seated on the patio, so we had a pretty view of the main street in Lyons. The burgers were tasty and really filling, and the portions were generous. Definitely a nice place to stop by! read more
