So… When’s Happy Hour?

We’re so glad you asked.

Happy Hour at The Barley runs Monday through Saturday from 5 PM to 7 PM, and we take things up a notch on Sundays with SUNDAY FUNDAY – happy hour all day long. That’s right: whether you’re brunching late or gearing up for the week ahead, Sunday is your chance to soak up deals from open to close.

What’s on the Happy Hour Menu?

We keep it simple. We keep it awesome. Check out the lineup:

$6 Beers – Grab a cold one from our rotating tap lineup, featuring plenty of Colorado favorites and something for just about every beer drinker.

$8 Wine – Fresh pours straight from the tap. Our wine-on-tap selection means every glass stays fresh, crisp, and ready to pour.

$9 Mules – Cold, gingery, refreshing, and always a solid Happy Hour choice.

$9 Barley Margaritas – Our house margarita, balanced and refreshing, with just the right amount of kick.

$10 Draft Mythology Old Fashioned – A smooth, easy-drinking Old Fashioned featuring local Mythology spirits and served straight from the draft.

$6 Well Drinks – Keep it classic with your favorite well cocktail.

$5 Well Shots – Because sometimes Happy Hour calls for a shot.

Whether you’re stopping in after work, winding down after a day outside, or meeting up with friends downtown, there’s something on the Happy Hour menu for you.

Whether you’re sipping solo or kicking it with friends, you’ll find something to love on our happy hour list.

Why Locals Love The Barley

Here’s the thing: happy hour isn’t just about the prices (though let’s be honest – $5 beers in a ski town is kind of amazing). It’s about the vibe.

We’ve created a space where locals and visitors feel equally at home. Cozy up in a corner with a pint, grab a high-top with your crew, or post up at the bar and chat with our friendly bartenders about what’s new on tap.

You’ll find a constantly rotating selection of 30+ craft beers, most of them from Colorado, as well as locally distilled spirits, tap wine, and signature cocktails. And if you’re not drinking alcohol, we’ve got NA beer, wine, and mocktails ready to go – all included in the good times.

What Makes Our Happy Hour Unique?

In a town packed with ski bars and apres spots, what makes The Barley stand out? A few things:

1. Tap Takeovers + Rotating Drafts

Our beer list changes constantly. That means there’s always something new to try, and often a rare keg you won’t find anywhere else in town. Come for happy hour, and stay for the surprise.

2. Central Downtown Location

We’re located right in the heart of downtown Steamboat Springs, just steps from the Yampa River and a short walk from tons of great local shops and restaurants. Whether you’re starting your night or ending your day, we’re the perfect stop.

3. Sundays = All Day Happy Hour

Because you deserve it. Whether you skied all morning, biked Rabbit Ears Pass, or just need one more mimosa before Monday – Sunday Funday is our gift to you.

4. Friendly, Laid-Back Vibes

There’s no velvet rope, no dress code, and no pressure. Just good drinks and good people. That’s how we do happy hour in Steamboat.

Planning a Group? Bring the Crew!

Whether you’re meeting friends after work, planning a birthday toast, or just rolling in with the squad after a day on the slopes, we’ve got space for you. Our bar is designed for community and connection – with long tables, comfy corners, and plenty of space to mingle. And yes, we’re family-friendly before 9:30 PM!

Bonus: Bring Your Own Food

Feeling snacky? While we offer some tasty bar bites (hello, soft pretzels with pub cheese), we also encourage guests to bring in takeout from nearby restaurants. Want a burger with your beer? Sushi with your sour? Thai with your tequila mule? Go for it. We’ll provide the drinks – you bring the cravings.
