Bar Down Tavern

Great spot for lunch or apre ski while on the mountain near Peak 7. The bartenders Ben and Daniel were awesome! We went twice in 3 days, the steak sammie and salad were all delicious and nice size portions. We'll be back for more in the future!

Stopped for lunch on a Sunday. Bri was our server and did an excellent job! Live music playing on the patio. Food was great with one exception, the pork belly in the lettuce wraps was very salty, but overall good! Everything else was fantastic! As owners at the property it was enjoyable!

Everything about this restaurant was amazing! Several members of our party have food allergies and they were easily able to accommodate them. Everything was delicious and the desserts were the perfect finish. The view as immaculate, we were able to see miles out over the mountain. We were able to play corn hole and shuffleboard in the nice outdoor area while we waited for our food. They turned on the heaters for us, as we are not used to the cooler temperatures (being from Florida). Our food came quickly and the portions were larger than expected! Veta is an incredible server. She was very friendly, attentive, and helpful! Overall, we were super impressed with everything! Pictured: Pulled Pork Sandwich with GF Bun and Sweet Potato Tots

Typical ski resort mountain base bar. Pizza looks good. Nice pizza oven. However, the location is incorrect on the map. It appears to be located in the condos - but actually it is located right in front of the Independence Superchair.

A great new take on a classic location. Bar Down has seized on the opportunity to take back from the former Vail robber barons the prime spot at Grand Lodge on Peak 7. They cut prices in half and now offer food people actually want. The setting is just the right amount of formal with linen napkins and great rustic-modern décor. The mushroom pizza is awesome to snack on while relaxing at the hotel. The chicken sandwich has great flavor, and the bleu cheese is made in-house. The steaks also have a perfect hint of salt and are very succulent; but are consistently over-cooked. Insist when you order rare, you want rare. I am excited for this new resident on the mountain, and will be back, hungry.
