    This was our table
    Tabitha K.

    The ambience was super cute, was a nice throw back to old times. Wait staff was helpful and kind. The food was okay at best.

    Asia was very welcoming and sweet! we are from Texas and we had a great time. Old time vibes and good drinks and staff was great. Good ambiance

    I got molested at the shady lady and the bartender just watched. I felt very uncomfortable and was groped multiple times

    The Shady Lady

    Stopped in today, had to with that name! Loved it! Sat at the bar and was able to talk to the owner Leslie. She was so sweet and shared the history of the town and bar. Definitely a cute place and love that she keeps the traditions alive in this quaint mining town

    Leslie aka "The Shady Lady"... SUPER sweet gal!

    A truly enjoyable place to stop for a drink and food after the train ride to Silverton! Recently reopened by Leslie, a Silverton local (a friendly and industrious 24 year old... aka "The Shady Lady"), this is a charming restaurant and saloon right off the DSNG station. Save yourself the walk to Main Street and definitely stop here after the 3.5 hour train ride from Durango!

    OK, I stopped here for lunch because, yes it was a house of ill-repute at one time. Yes it was over priced, food tasted so so. At least the water was cold. Sidenote: the kids near the train track were selling rocks from their wagon. Cute kids. If you see them, buy some rocks. They'll give you a deal too.

    Bad food. Rude people. Staff dropping F bombs every other word. Great family lunch environment. Not.

    Asia told us that she & the other bartenders usually dress in the corsets & skirts & hats that servers wore in the late 1800's & early 1900's.

    The Avon is actually a SUPER nice hostel/historic hotel - I was really happy with my stay! The only…read morereason I didn't give 5 stars is bc check in was a bit confusing; when I arrived there was no staff at the desk or in the lobby, and I didn't receive any info about how to check in. However, when I arrived I hunted down a phone number in an old confirmation email and got directly in contact with someone (David) who told me exactly how to find my room key and explained where everything was. The whole place is fairly spacious! There are three floors (my room was a 5-bed dorm style room on the third floor), and the main bathroom is on the third floor too. It had two very clean shower stalls with plenty of toiletries for showers, and 3 bathroom stalls. The whole vibe of the bathroom was old Victorian rustic - very cute. The 5 bed room was shockingly comfy too - there were at least 3 other people in my room (clearly all hikers as well, very friendly), and I was bottom bunk. The beds themselves were super comfy, the pillows seemed like memory foam or something similar, and each bed had a fan and wall outlets. There was enough space under the bunks and on the little desk that the room didn't feel overcrowded with luggage either. And there was a small movie theater area in the basement, kitchen behind the lobby desk that is for everyone to use, and some little tables and chairs around including on the second floor which is where I ate dinner. Ngl, I actually appreciated that there were 3 others in my room and clearly several other people also staying in the Avon because it has a "haunted" feel to it, but having so many other happy/friendly hikers and travelers around just makes it feel cozy and safe. Overall: this place is in silverton, a super cute little Colorado town near tons of awesome hikes and gorgeous million dollar freeway! It is cozy, clean, and has plenty of resources. I didn't feel crowded at all.

    No public lounge. Seems sort of deserted but at least no public lounge the day we were here, a…read moreThursday at 12:30.

    There's so many great places to eat in Silverton so it was hard to choose! We got the pizza here…read moreand it was very very good! Excellent beer choices too. This place is not a far walk from where the train drops off too. The only downfall was the service. Could have been better.

Instead of being welcomed, we were immediately interrogated by the woman at the front, then questioned again by the bartender. We were seated and left sitting there for 30 minutes without a single person taking our order or offering service. Our waitress even apologized and admitted she "hates that she can't help us," making it obvious the staff had intentionally decided not to serve us. Throughout the entire time, my service dog was exactly where a service dog should be--quietly lying under the table at my feet, causing absolutely no disruption. After waiting half an hour, I finally asked if we were ever going to be served. That's when we were told the issue was my service dog. When I questioned this, the bartender's response was to tell me I "didn't need an attitude." I've written maybe five Yelp reviews in my life, but this experience deserves to be shared. The way we were treated was humiliating, discriminatory, and completely unacceptable. It felt like we were being singled out simply because I have a disability and rely on a service animal. All six of us got up and left because of how we were treated. Small businesses deserve support when they treat people with respect. This business did the opposite. I would never recommend this restaurant to anyone, and I sincerely hope no one else has to experience the kind of discrimination we did.
