Contemporary American twist on Mexican food. Very good tacos and margaritas. Fun place to hang out for some guac and drinks and people watching. Solid happy hour choice. Their rooftop deck is sunny, laid-back, and has great views of main street, the ski slopes to the south and Sleeping Giant to the north.

Has one of the bigger floor-plans for local restaurants, so it's usually quite easy to slip into a big booth and have some privacy. Serves upscale-ish "comfort grub." Good place to go if you can't decide what you're hungry for. Also a favorite spot to sit at the expansive circular bar and watch sports games, if that's your thing.

Delish foods made from (you guessed it) scratch. I particularly love their salads and desserts. Fun place to lounge at the bar as well. And there is a patio for the summer.

A go-to place for summer drinks, food, and lounging. Their backyard/patio area is the stuff of local legend. Right on the Yampa River, so it's especially popular spot to stop after an afternoon of tubing. If you're into the Colorado mountain chill/yard-games/beer/sunshine vibe, this is your place.

Super cute space recently opened in a stone building overlooking a bubbling brook. Even has a (very tiny) balcony with a few chairs that's right over the water. Their superbly delicious baked goods are on the expensive side, but if you want to treat yourself to a fresh almond croissant and coffee, this is the place to go.

Mazzola's is a Steamboat staple, opened in 1970 (which, for ski towns with ever-changing restaurants, is ancient!). This basement restaurant is warm, cozy, and inviting - the perfect place for a family or couple to relax and enjoy delicious food on a cold mountain evening. Reservations recommended.

Family-friendly sports bar and grill. If you're not excited about staring at TV screens while you eat (which I'm not!), don't worry - the space has a high ceiling and is large and airy, and so if you want to ignore the sports element of the place, you easily can! Please, please, if you are a meat eater, try their super yummy burgers. And if you make it to the 3-6pm happy hour, try their tasty mac & cheese. They also have a loft with games like skee-ball for extra diversion! http://www.dudeanddans.com

HAPPY HOUR! Their daily 4:30-6pm happy hour is consistently rated one of the best in the Boat. Tasty drinks and even tastier food. I highly recommend the half-off happy hour nachos, which can easily be dinner for two. The bar/lounge area has ample space for whiling away the happy hour on couches and at tables. They have free live acoustic music Tuesdays-Saturdays in the lounge 6-8pm. And their deck overlooking the Yampa, with couches and a fireplace, is perfect.

Walk-up cantina / permanent food truck with quick, tasty burritos. Only open in the summer for lunch and satisfyingly off-the-beaten-bath. You'll see locals stopping here in the middle of a Steamboat-Oak Creek bicycle ride or to pick up food before they spend the day on the water at Stagecoach Reservoir.

Parks & Nature
The Stagecoach Retreat is located right above the reservoir for you to explore: Ice fishing, dog sledding, fat-tire biking, cross-country skiing & snowshoeing in the winter; hiking, biking, swimming, boating, water skiing, tubing & fishing in the summer!
The 8 miles of trails that border the lake are groomed and relatively flat, making it a great location to snowshoe.
The best part? The park even loans out snowshoes & fat-tire bikes for free! You can make gear reservations up to 2 weeks in advance. Call the office for more info: 970-736-2436.

Make sure to take a quick detour to Fish Creek Falls, just a 10-minute drive from downtown. The area offers a paved 1/4-mile trail to the overlook, so this is a great option for easy, family-friendly outdoors time. There are also more rustic trails that go to the lower bridge and then up into the wilderness beyond. Bring a picnic and enjoy this iconic scene. (These falls are famous for being pictured on the Coors can labels!)

Our local library is the best! It has a Mountain Brew cafe where you can get some caffeine before browsing the stacks. And the kids' area is fantastic - there are areas to hang out and enjoy a snack while reading books, and the daily storytimes are a favorite for locals and tourists alike. Also, the library is right on the Yampa River and it's pedestrian "core trail" that goes all the way through the city, and it's right across the street from two parks and several natural mineral pools. In the spring you can catch kayakers doing flips on the rapids, and in the summer, the river banks are a popular place to lounge and socialize.
