You’ll notice some changes (the bathrooms are much better than the old ones), but the vibe is still the same. The signage that was once outside of the bar is now gone and partly because of that, it kind of has the look/feel of a modern-day speakeasy.
I also spoke with the bartender for a little. He told me that Quarry House has the oldest active liquor license in MoCo (until Dietle’s is back up and running).
My Quarry House Tavern experience was just as I remembered it. There’s something about the place that just makes you love being there. The atmosphere is still perfect, the food is as good as you’ll find in a dive-bar (though I’m hesitant to call it that), and the beer selection is top-notch.
If you can look past the stairwell that comes straight from a horror flick, you’ll have yourself a great time at the “new” Quarry House Tavern.
