Buena Vista Stammtisch: Simple Eatery, 402 E Main, Buena Vista

Say ‘Hello’ to old friends and meet new ones over good food, drink, and conversation. On the first Thursday of each month, in Buena Vista, members and friends of the Central Colorado Humanists gather for an ‘agenda-free’ time of nourishing relationships.
From Wikipedia: A Stammtisch (German: “regulars’ table”) is an informal group meeting held on a regular basis, and also the usually large, often round table around which the group meets. A Stammtisch is not a structured meeting, but rather a friendly get-together.
