“We love to visit The Dogwood for downright AMAZING cocktails. The owners run the joint and if you sit at the bar, more than likely you can pick their brain about Crested Butte & how they come up with unique cocktails. Be sure to check their hours so you don’t get disappointed. Add some appetizers and viola, you have yourself a perfect date.”
— Lauren Ohara“We visited here twice during our one week stay because it was so amazing. The vibe, the cocktails were all on point! The service was exceptional! We will definitely be back each time we are in CB! It’s a don’t miss!”
— Lindy Gschwend“This bar lived up to the hype. Some places tout chef inspired, hand crafted cocktails. Here, all you need to do is sit at the bar and see what that really means. Our bartender, Andrew, was fun, chatty, and welcoming. Be warned that the place is small and, even though they only serve drinks and light fare, it fills up quickly”
— Chandran Kumar“The drinks are outstanding and friendly service. Great ambiance too!”
