The Reckless Roadhouse

The Reckless Roadhouse is a saloon and smokehouse in the middle of historic De Beque Square, an intentionally rough-around-the-edges local hangout with barbecue, drinks, and a corner of the calendar set aside for live music. Shows can land on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. The 80-person room works well for acoustic, Americana, rock, country, folk, and singer-songwriter acts that fit the roadhouse feel. For guests, it is one of the more character-rich stops in this small western Colorado town; for artists, it is a friendly Western Slope room with an audience that treats live music as part of a good night out.
