The Mint Bar at 151 North Main Street is the essential Sheridan experience — a genuine working cowboy bar with saddle bar stools, a century of memorabilia on the walls, and an atmosphere that no amount of craft-beer branding can manufacture. It has been here since 1907 and shows no signs of changing.
Beyond the Mint, Sheridan's downtown has a growing number of good coffee shops and informal restaurants serving local ranching families and the town's steady stream of outdoors visitors. The WYO Performing Arts and Education Center, housed in a restored 1920s building on Main Street, is worth checking for live music and events during your visit.
