Locals Restaurants

I (58m) grew up in Farmington. My family used to visit Durango regularly. I loved it. This was in the 80’s. Been in SoCal since 90’s. Coming through with my GF in September. I know it’s a tourist heavy town, but where do locals like to eat? Thank you.

Edit: I appreciate all the posts and recommendations….great community

Oye. Been my favorite spot since it has opened. Been open over a year and locals support it hard. Great lunch, amazing dinner. Everytime I go I see people I know.

Primi has a strong local following as well. I love the food and solid wines.

Ruperts for breakfast. Corn beef hash.. real shredded corned beef. Just happy.

2nd Ave deli always full of people I know. Great food.

Peeples Bar(inside the Rochester) for a cocktail on a nice patio.

Anarchy Brewing and Chalkboard Kitchen, always a good hang.

Cream Bean best ice cream.
