Known by townies as "the local cure," the Holiday Bar is a relatively undiscovered treasure in downtown Morrison. Bikers know about it -- you'll often find them packing the bar on weekends to indulge in the cheap beer, strong drinks and live music the Holiday has to offer. The venue includes an expansive smoker-friendly patio with an outdoor area for when it's nice and a covered section for when it's not (and a popcorn machine with free popcorn for barflies).

There are large-screen televisions for watching the game, plus free Wi-Fi in case they're not showing your team of choice. Although it's sometimes overlooked, you can't miss the venue: It's also got the only legal light-up sign in this small foothills town, complete with a blinking arrow directing you in the door.
This place has everything, and they keep improving this place making it better, and better.

When David Killingsworth purchased the Morrison Holiday Bar (known as the "local cure" by Morrisonites), he made a few changes. The bar now boasts a window to the next-door deli, for example, so that bar patrons can order food. But one thing Killingsworth didn't mess with was the blinking neon arrow above the front door. The fifty-year-old sign was an unofficial Morrison landmark, so when Killingsworth was told that the light didn't comply with the town's sign code, he appealed his case all... More »
