Coal mining began around 1835 in what is now known as Madrid (pronounced MAD-rid). The town grew as a "company town", the company owned
everything- administering law & order, operating the hotel, stores and the tavern. The original tavern was established around 1895, it burned down on
Christmas Day in 1944. The current Mine Shaft Tavern was completed in 1947 with much of the interior the same today.

The paintings by renowned Tinker Town artist Ross Ward located above the bar and behind the stage colorfully portrays Madrid's rich history, from
mining days to recent past with its melodrama theatre. The Mine Shaft continues to serve to its diverse clientele - bikers on weekends, locals,
artists, musicians and travelers abroad …Ross duly cites the Mine Shaft Tavern as the
"Cultural Gem of the Mining District"

Today, the "Shaft" is known for its “New Mexico Roadhouse Cuisine” Green Chile Cheese Burgers, Hand cut fries, Green & Red Chile, Great Daily Specials & Desserts. Full bar with fresh squeezed Margarita's! |
In the 1950's most of the mines closed and Madrid became known as a ghost town for about 20 years. The Mine Shaft Tavern and Madrid's Old Coal Town Museum are on the 2005 "most endangered historic places". |
