This is a historic Roaring Fork Valley landmark. The dive bar of our valley with incredible food, always great 80's music seems to be playing and this is where Hunter S Thompson used to hang and the cowboys ride to and hitch their horses up outside. The best burgers and mexican, cheap good beer in an environment of funky photos and old momentos of all the times of the Taverns life. Really a fun stop for lunch or dinner. The waitresses are like old time harsh sometimes so don't take it personally!

It's one of the last old school Aspen restaurants and has amazing barbeque and greasy spoon breakfasts. It's been known and visited since it opened way back in the 60's (I think)

Lively upscale but casual with a great bar and sometimes salsa and tango dancing. Jimmy the proprietor keeps a selection of tequila which will blow your mind and always stunning food. It's been around for a very long time and it's always reliably excellent!

It is the best, friendliest, yummiest coffee shop around! If you stay at the tiny house, Basalt is the best place to go for coffee, pastries, breakfast and CC's is a wonderful space with exposed brick walls, outdoor seating for when the sun is out and delicious food and beverages including amazing salads!

Getting Around

the bus service is really excellent in the valley. From the tiny house bus service is limited to morning and night but overall it's spectacular for going up and down valley, to and from ski areas. Even park your car at the intercept lot in Snowmass and bus to the Ski areas to save a fortune on parking and then don't worry about that apres ski drink!

Great to have the train 30 miles from Aspen. Easy to take it to Glenwood Springs then bus anywhere in the Roaring Fork Valley. Especially for people who either don't want to fly or enjoy to see the incredible scenery. The route once in the mountains is spectacular
