A few blocks east of Pagosa Springs, Colorado's famous downtown strip, is Riff Raff's Brewing Company. A local favorite for beer enthusiasts and foodies alike. With a laid-back atmosphere and a passion for brewing quality craft beer, this brewery is a must-visit destination for anyone exploring the area, regardless of the waitstaff and service.
At Riff Raff's, the beers are more than just beverages, they're a work of art. From crisp lagers to hoppy IPAs and rich stouts, there's a brew to suit every palate. Be sure to try their signature Pagosa Pale Ale, a refreshing beer that captures the essence of the Rockies.
But Riff Raff's is not just about beer; it's also a food lover's paradise. Their menu features a great selection of dishes made with locally sourced ingredients. Whether you're craving a burger, a sandwich, or a fresh salad, their kitchen has something for everyone.
     I highly recommend the restaurant with a word of caution; the service is awful. The first time I went there, I waited several minutes just to be acknowledged, and I was the only patron. It was only after I began to accept that-that I recognized Riff Raff to be the highly regarded restaurant and brewery that it most definitely is beneath the surface.Â
The best restaurant in Pagosa Springs, Colorado by far, their notable beers, delicious foods, live music, and rustic Colorado mountain town ambience make it the ideal spot to unwind after a day in the hot springs and exploring Pagosa Springs.
