Kochevar's
970.349.6745
Kochevar’s is a true, authentic Crested Butte bar you can still walk into and order your spirit of choice, if you can take the salt. Jacob Kochevar, born in 1874, came to the United States from Yugoslavia at 16 making the Kochevar family one of the oldest lineages in Crested Butte. Jake was reputed to be one of the best carpenters in town, and in 1891, finished building himself what still stands as Kochevars.
Many of the hand-hewn timbers came from the site, and the basement still holds testament to this fact with the stumps that remain there. The roof trusses were raised by block and tackle and pulled by horse.
