Steamboat Nightlife

The bar scene in Steamboat, while never dull, comes especially alive in winter. One of the hottest hangouts is Lupo's , at Ski Time Square, with 20 beers on tap, pool tables and video games, and some good happy hour specials. Other popular venues include the rustic Tugboat Grill & Pub, Ski Time Square, which attracts a noisy local crowd for a variety of live music and dancing, starting about 9:30pm.

In downtown Steamboat, The Tap House, 729 Lincoln Ave., has dozens of TVs (including a couple of huge ones) showing just about any sporting event you'd want to see. There are 21 beers on tap, good fajitas, pool tables, and a video arcade. Beer drinkers enjoy the camaraderie, fresh ales, and nightly bar specials at Mahogany Ridge , 435 Lincoln Ave., which offers a top-notch amber ale as well as its other microbrews, plus wines by the glass and a full bar.
