Sitting on an improved patio alongside the Dolores River, Sheri Schiess, and her son Tyler Schiess are clearly proud of their new venture. An menu of pizza, subs, salads and wings is available, and will soon be expanded to include burgers, fries and appetizers plus daily specials to offer something for everyone. And the wood-paneled, family-designed bar area is a welcoming oasis with happy hour specials and a jukebox.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere is no other place to go for spirits,\u201d says Sheri. \u201cWe welcome the community to come over and check us out, but don\u2019t carve your name on the bar!\u201d \u2013 a reference to the personalized bar top at the Hollywood.<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd no shootouts or horse riding through the bar,\u201d adds Tyler.<\/p>\n
The restaurant and bar is spacious, and the al fresco dining on a 2,300 square foot patio is relaxing as the river flows just yards away.<\/p>\n
A kitchen remodel in the works will free up space for a competition pool hall, which is set apart from a good-sized dance floor in the bar area. There will be regular live bands, and locals can stretch their vocal chords during karaoke on Wednesday nights. Big screen televisions will be installed for Bronco Sunday and Nuggets games. A private banquet room is also available.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt was a whole lot of work, more than I anticipated, but the end result is really worth the effort,\u201d Sheri said.<\/p>\n
