Eat & Drink in Durango
81301 Coffee House and Roasters + La Bonne Pâtisserie
One of our favorite morning stops. Grab a coffee from 81301 and then walk next door for incredible pastries from La Bonne Pâtisserie. The perfect start to a Durango morning.
Durango Coffee Company
A downtown staple with plenty of seating, great coffee, and a relaxed atmosphere if you're looking for a place to work, read, or catch up with friends.
Durango Diner
A local classic serving hearty breakfast and lunch favorites. Simple, delicious, and exactly what you want before a day of exploring.
College Cafe
One of our absolute favorite breakfast spots. Go early and put your name on the list—it fills up quickly. And if they have the monkey bread, order it immediately. They're also exceptionally gluten-free and celiac conscious, use fresh utensils for preparation, source ingredients locally, and make many of their sauces, jams, and biscuits from scratch.
Durango Bagel
Freshly made bagels, breakfast sandwiches, and coffee. A great grab-and-go option before hitting the road or the trails.
11th Street Station
A fun outdoor gathering spot featuring a collection of local food trucks, plenty of seating, and a full bar. Perfect for a casual meal and drinks with friends.
Fired Up Pizzeria
Delicious wood-fired pizzas and a laid-back atmosphere. Great for sharing a few pies with a group.
Chimayo Stone Fired Kitchen
Southwestern-inspired dishes, handcrafted cocktails, and a beautiful patio. A great option for lunch or dinner downtown.
Carver Brewing Co.
One of Durango's longtime favorites. Excellent food, great local beer, and one of the best back patios in town.
Side Street (Cork & Larder)
A hidden gem known for its rotating sandwich menu and what we firmly believe is some of the best bread you'll ever eat.
The Bookcase and Barber
Durango's hidden speakeasy tucked behind a vintage bookcase. Part upscale barbershop, part craft cocktail bar, it's one of the most unique spots in town. Check their social media for the current password, then step through the secret entrance for creative cocktails and a cozy, old-world atmosphere. A great date-night stop after dinner downtown.
The Office Spiritorium
Located inside the historic Strater Hotel, known for creative cocktails and one of the coolest interiors in town.
Black Heron Lounge
Underground cocktail lounge with a moody, upscale vibe.
