Old Spruce Draft House

A draft house run by local craft brewer Old Spruce in the village, where skiers can have a mountain-brewed beer with simple fare such as chili mac.

Old Spruce has operated in Snowshoe since 2010, brewing every beer on the mountain. The lineup includes pale ale, hazy IPA, golden ale and stout, plus seasonal releases. The village draft house offers a quick, in-and-out format so skiers can grab a beer and a bite before heading back to the slopes. According to WBOY, the most popular items are loaded baked potatoes, chili mac and French dip sandwiches. Cans can also be filled on the spot to take away. Locals call it the best bar on the mountain. It operates mainly in winter, and prices are affordable. The brewery's taproom on Silver Creek Road, about a mile away, has a fuller food menu.
