Woody Creek

Woody Creek Tavern is an eccentric dive BBQ spot in Woody Creek, several miles outside of Aspen, but so worth the drive. It's been open since 1980, and the history shows, so be prepared for a bit of sensory overload when you step inside: the walls are decked out with hundreds of photos, newspaper clippings, magazine covers, kids' drawings, and likely anything else you could think of—all in good, unpretentious fun.
