Our Story

About us

Our illustrious owner, Westley Isbutt, is a developer, commercial photographer, and lover of fine whiskeys. His partner and spouse, Debra Heiser, is a brand designer and lover of all things tennis. The pair moved to Longmont from fabulous Las Vegas, NV and once adapted to the streets rolling up at 8 pm, decided to open the West Side Tavern, where the welcome rug only rolls up at 9 pm on weekdays and 10 pm weekends.
