We have friends in Durango who took us here on our first visit, and we've been back a few times since. Yep, it's kinda down 'n dirty. Yep, the service is kinda hectic. Yep, it's noisy. It's a brew pub! The beer is very good, and the food is hearty, with HUGE servings. It was a fun place to relax... more

I make it a point to go to Steamworks at least once everytime I'm in Durango. They have fantastic beer - my favorite is the Steam Engine lager, and awesome food. Get the cajun boil - they do a really good job with it, and I believe it's only available after 4:00. I've had many things off the menu, including... more

It was getting a little late for lunch in Durango as we drove by the Steamworks Brewery. I had tried one of their beers earlier in the week at another restaurant, so they were familiar. We were greeted by a genial host and seated at a nice window location. The lunch crowd was mostly gone. Our server was a local,... more

Steamworks feels a little more metropolitan than Durango, but the food was good and the beer was tasty. I had their house special macaroni and cheese, and it was very tasty. I tried 4 different beers and they were all good. Overall, a nice place to eat at. more

If you are staying at one of the major hotels, or the local landmark hotels, everything is easily within walking distance for you if you prefer to stay in the historical district. In Durango the central drag appears to be Main... more

We tried the beer sampler, only found one decent beer out of the bunch. Asked for coffee with cream. He brought me a cup with one creamer. Then refilled it later, and did not bring anymore cream. The waiter seemed way out of his league with keeping up with tables, or perhaps he just didn't care. more

Now it seems like a tourist trap to me and not a locals hang out. The food was so expensive and not that great. The beer was okay and the handcrafter root beer was not good at all. For someone who handcrafts themselves maybe the would know rootbeer should be treated like a beer, meaning no ice! Kind of a... more

i would never have chose to eat there it is grose scary............. more

This place has an awesome atmosphere, come for a drink at the bar, watch the game, or dinner with someone special. They bring a basket of peanuts to the table and you just throw the shells right on the floor. Must try the cajun broil, or blue cheese crusted steak, they are to die for. And dont to get one... more
