Whitewater Bar & Grill

Rustic western-style bar & grill at Royal Gorge's adventure hub, featuring legendary margaritas, BBQ, outdoor patio with games, and live music on weekends.

The Adventure Hub's Gathering Spot

Whitewater Bar & Grill sits at the heart of Royal Gorge Epic Adventures, the same location as Royal Gorge Rafting and Zipline Tours. After your adventure on the river or soaring above the canyon, this rustic western-style bar & grill is the perfect place to refuel and celebrate.

Food & Drinks

The menu features hearty American fare with standouts like the BBQ brisket sandwich that regulars rave about. The margaritas are legendary—ask any local or returning visitor. A full bar means plenty of options for however you like to unwind.

The Atmosphere

When summer hits, the back patio comes alive with outdoor string lights, sand volleyball, cornhole, fire pits, and even axe throwing. Kids have their own playground while adults relax. Live bands play on weekends, and photo kiosks display slideshows of the day's rafting trips—you might spot yourself tackling the rapids.

Live Music & Events

Check the events calendar for upcoming live music, daily specials like $8 Sunday Bloody Marys, and special events throughout the season.

Part of Something Bigger

Being co-located with Royal Gorge Rafting means this is where guides, adventurers, and first-timers naturally end up sharing stories. It's not just a restaurant—it's where Royal Gorge adventure stories are told and retold.
