El Patio

Thank god the watery margarita I got here was only $ 4. If I had paid a single cent more I may have opted for Smith and Wesson therapy vice my standard Unilocal therapy.

We were walking down main and could hear the music loud & clear and it was rockin! So, we proceeded up the stairs, pulled out our IDs and we were granted access to «El Patio».
The margaritas were OK. But, they did accomplish what they were intended for… heh. The vibe on «El Patio» was fantastic! Everyone was chillin’ and several people were dancing and getting down to the live band that was playing, myself included.
We were sitting out on a corner patio, right in the heart of downtown Durango and we were under the stars. It was nothing but good times! Another bonus was the place was smoker friendly! The service was also good! Even though the drinks were just OK, the bartenders were smiling and having a good time, even though it was packed and they were slammed.
«El Patio» is a fantastic place to spend an evening and I would recommend it to any local or anyone passing through town. There is great fun to be had at this place!

If you are looking for a place to chill on a Sunday evening, swag a few cocktails and people watch from above the street, this is a great place to kick it.
If you are the last order for grub out of the kitchen on a Sunday night, well, serves you right for waiting till 930 pm to chow down. Not so good.
Great hustle from the staff on the over priced drafts.
