Out Around Town | Eagle Ranch
Downtown Eagle Ranch is home to some killer food and drinks on what I call "Restaurant Corner". 7 Hermits Brewery is a casual go-to place for craft beers and catching the game. The Dusty Boot is a local favorite for quick appetizers, drinks and unique Colorado main dishes. Finally, Luigis Pastahouse transports you to Italy where you can dine with your neighbors at the community table or enjoy family style meals with loved ones. All three of these killer eats offer al fresco dining; often enhanced with live local musicians. Stop by one of these great spots on your way to see a movie at the Capitol Theater!

Out Around Town | Downtown Eagle
Not only is Eagle known for its many wonderful mountain bike trails, but the quaint, downtown area of Broadway is full of hidden gems. Among my favorites is Yeti's Grind. They have a Vail and an Eagle location (which they just remodeled!) Next time you are in the area, make sure to stop in for a coffee, pastry or burrito and hang out with the locals.

Donuts & Pizza at Northside Kitchen | Avon, Colorado
Northside Kitchen is frequented by locals and visitors alike and there's no wonder why! From the homemade scrumptious donuts, to the mouth-watering prime rib night, Northside Kitchen is one of my favorites. The owner of Northside also owns Northside Cafe in West Vail, Southside Benderz in Avon and Pavalici's Pizza located on the other side of Northside Kitchen. Whatever you're craving, they've got it covered. So make sure you stop in the next time you're in town and you'll probably find me indulging in a Maple Bacon Donut...

Bringing Back The Art of The Siesta - Drunken Goat | Edwards, CO
We’ve lost touch with the art of the siesta. Drunken Goat is here to change that.
At Drunken Goat, they take the time to handcraft every meal on the menu using locally-sourced and artisan ingredients. Their cheesemonger and wine experts meticulously select each bottle of wine and block of cheese they stock–and will gladly walk you through their collection–so that you get precisely what you need for any occasion. Like what you taste? Take it home with you, shop the delicious provisions in our artisan Mercado.
The sprawling outdoor patio is open longer throughout the season and later into the night than most anywhere else in the Valley because we know that–sometimes–to really be able to breathe deep and relax, you need to see the stars.

Staying Adaptable | The Blue Plate
Local favorite The Blue Plate in Avon, Colorado is a great example of flexibility and adaptation during uncertain times. With the onset of COVID-19 and state-wide recommendations to limit contact, Chef Adam and Elli quickly shifted from in-restaurant dining to offering curbside takeout and FREE delivery in the Avon area for those in self-isolation or being extra cautious right now.
With a diverse, fixed menu in place, they have taken steps to ensure that they can still provide to our community and we, in turn, can continue to support one local business here in the Vail Valley.
Check out their website or Facebook page for the most up-to-date menu and give yourself a break from PB&J's or Spaghetti! Call (970) 845-2252 to place your order Monday - Saturday.
