Roosevelt’s Tavern honors the adventurous spirit of its namesake with elevated mountain fare, fine whiskey, and an atmosphere rich in Ouray’s history.
Roosevelt’s Tavern is as close to a local institution as Ouray gets. Named in honor of Theodore Roosevelt, who famously stayed in Ouray and was known to dine within these very walls, Roosevelt’s Tavern celebrates mountain craftsmanship in both spirit and style. Its interiors combine stone, wood, and ambient lighting to create a warm, lived-in elegance. Expect elevated tavern fare, like Colorado beef, house-smoked ribs, local trout, and a whiskey list that rivals any city bar. The staff has the unpretentious confidence of people who know they’re serving something exceptional. Whether you arrive in hiking boots or heels, you’ll feel instantly at home.
