Stray Dog Cantina has been serving delicious Northern New Mexican food and drinks in the Taos Ski Valley for over 20 years. We are especially famous for our red & green chile (100% flame roasted), chile rellenos, great burgers, and breakfast burritos. Our bar offers a wide selection of bottled beers, locally brewed draft beer, as well as a full bar - home of our renowned Margaritas.
Tim and Laurie Harter first opened the Stray Dog Cantina, located at the base of the Taos Ski Valley, in 1989. Tim and Laurie had both been working in Taos Ski Valley at the Hotel St. Bernard for many years. When Tim and Laurie 'strayed" from the St. Bernard (aka - the Big Dog, by the locals) they decided to call their new place Tim's Stray Dog Cantina. The Stray Dog quickly became a favorite eating and watering hole for locals and the tourists soon followed. Stray Dog Cantina has built a solid reputation around their great food, fun atmosphere, and deliciously strong margaritas.
Recently Marcos Aragon, Rachele Griego and Tori Mendes all from Santa Fe, New Mexico have acquired the Stray Dog Cantina and they are committed to maintaining and building on the Stray Dog's reputation as "the" place to eat and drink in the Taos Ski Valley.
Summer Hours: Monday through Saturday 11:00AM-9:00PM and Sunday 10:00AM-9:00PM for brunch.
