THE BARREL - Estes Park

This place is pretty cool. HOWEVER, the lady serving us extremely rude. While she laughs and does shots without her mask, we are an inconvenience. NEVER ask for a Jack and diet or you will meet the wrath of this woman. I get it. It Local Colorado only. That is fine. Just be a nice person like you are with the people you eat food with and drink shots with. We looked at this place for a wedding rehearsal dinner 2 months ago and the guy (mid day) was amazing. We came back to check again and will move our 200 people elsewherennThis place has great potential. Hiring a bar tender like this is a cancer for the long term health of the business. While walking out, I told my group the place was nice and the bartender was a BnnThe people leaving at the same time said”you too” And said they were bartenders and would NEVER treat people that way.nnGo to Cousin Pats for a friendly and awesome timennLet this place crash and burn until the owner wakes up and hires a friendly bartender.nnThe owners should watch the video of how the bartender laughs and jokes and drinks with her friends while treating others like SH”T

I am so glad we came across this bar on our short visit to Estes Park. All the staff was great and accommodating (though I was partial to Goose, the bar dog). There were limited tables indoors due to covid-19 restrictions, but it was nice enough to sit outside for a bit before space opened up and the waitress notified us of the open table. Although they were out of a few beers, there was still a great selection of beers and whiskeys. I will definitely be back.

Great place to hang out. They have a good collection of beers and spirits, even had the 12 year Pappy Van Winkle bourbon which I had a shot of.nLou the owner is super friendly and makes great recommendations.nMust visit this place!

Decent spot. Typical bar in Estes Park trying to be somewhat more fancy than other's

Loved this place! So many beer options and the bartender was friendly. Also plenty of room to sit and space out.
