El Vado Tap Room

Demetris

7/31/21: Love the El Vado outdoor plaza experience; family and pet-friendly. Cordial staff at each place visited. Nice size crowd on a rainy late afternoon. Live acoustic guitar during this visit. Parking can be a wee-bit challenging so get there early, stay late. Eateries that were visited: El Vado Taproom, Buen Provecho ABQ (Costa Rican/Latin Flavor, Happy Chickenzz, Street Foods Sensations, Ikigai Sushi, Bosque Burger and Rude Boy Cookies. Bosque Burger: Great backyard tasting charbroiled Buffalo Bacon Bleu burger with hot fries. Comes with a piece of cantaloupe and a dill pickle spear. Flat bread Pepperoni Pizza was $9.75. Also ordered an ultimate cheese pizza and added Pepperoni. Hot, tasty. El Vado Taproom: Swallowed down several ice cold Ghost Train IPA's and the Lemon Mango Hard Cider was very refreshing. There is something there for everyone's tastebuds so give El Vado a try! Enjoy...

This lil hidden local spot is more amazing then the pictures. Outside patio seating w amazing views of downtown. Eclectic shopping , yoga, bodegas, and more. Food pods, a historic motel, across the street an with in walking distance of so many unique to Albuquerque restaurants and shops, the Aquarium and Botanical Gardens. The staff was even more friendly and amazing. It's a have to spot for anytime the week and specially the weekends. Also serving there very own beers. I'll def make this my lil get way spot weekly maybe even daily.

Small friendly bar with craft beers at good prices (ie: $5.50 for an IPA @ 6.8abv). Located in a fenced-in outdoor courtyard that has 4 or 5 other restaurants to grub at .... looks like they all have veg options. All in all, awesome place to ride up on your bike after mobbing the trails and get a beer.

Just had two ipas here. The vibe is super chill with out patio seating. The bartenders when friendly and it didn’t take too long to get orders taken care of. I would highly recommend this tap room if you like outdoor patios.
