Restaurant Recommendations

DUE TO COVID, WE RECOMMEND CALLING RESTAURANTS AHEAD OF TIME.  SOME RESTAURANTS ARE ONLY SEATING PEOPLE WITH RESERVATIONS.  IT'S A GOOD IDEA TO CALL FIRST, ESPECIALY WHEN TOWN IS BUSY.

​

There will be a dining guide at the house or you can visit http://www.breckenridgediningguide.com 

                                      

Here are some of our personal favorites...however, if we missed one we apologize!  There are so many delicious restaurants in Breckenridge!  

​

PLEASE REALIZE THAT TOWN CAN GET VERY BUSY!  If you are planning nights out at restaurants (especially during high season), we recommend making reservations ahead of time.  During the Christmas/New Years Weeks, it is recommended to make reservations weeks/months prior to arriving.  Basically, call as soon as you know when you want to go out!

Favorite Happy Hours:

There are many great happy hours in Breck...here are just a few of our favs!  

  • Twist: LOVE their happy hour!  4pm-6pm daily.  $5, $6, $7, and $9 plates as well as happy hour cocktails, wine and beer.  It's a small bar here, but sometimes they will do happy hour at their dining tables as well...so just ask if the bar is full! 

  • Hearthstone:  Another one of my favorite happy hours.  For such a nice restaurant, their happy hour is super affordable!  $5 small plates, cocktails, wine, and beer!  They have a really cozy atmosphere in the bar area.  In the summer time ask about outdoor seating!  

  • The Briar Rose:  I love this happy hour but specifically on certain days!  They have happy hour on drinks daily from 4pm-6pm.  However, their happy hour only includes food (1/2-priced Small Plates) on Fridays and Saturdays...so choose your day you go here wisely!  

  • Blue River Bistro: The Blue River Bistro is known for it's Happy Hour.  One of the favorites in town.  Twice a day...from 3pm-6pm and from 9pm-Midnight everyday.  Two for one Apps, Two for One Martinis (May I recommend the dirty jalapeno?!!!), and $4 drafts.  This is definitely a favorite...especially if you miss the early bird happy hour.  Just do late night!  

  • Ember: Love Ember Happy Hour...or as they call it Euphoric Hour.  From 4pm-5:30pm...reduced drink prices and appetizer menu.  Highly recommend the "Sexy Woman" cocktail...with jalapeno infused vodka and passion fruit if that's your thing!  Mmmmm...so good!  ;)  

  • Rita's Taco Bar:  If you're looking for a casual bar environment, Rita's is a great spot.  5pm-7pm daily.  3 for $5 tacos or 3 for $7 tacos depending on what filling, $1 off Margs, $1 off draft beers, and $3 sauza blue shots.  Very fun environment and yummy tacos!  I personally recommend the Double Taco (hard/soft tortilla held together with queso) but not sure if those are on happy hour.  ;)  

  • Quandary Grill: Quandary Grill has an awesome Apres Menu.  2-5pm for food and 2-5:30 for drinks every day!  $7 specified apps, $3 drafts, $3 house wines, $4 premium well cocktails.  Love their lettuce wraps and crispy Brussels Sprouts!  

  • Aurum Breckenridge: I haven't been here myself for happy hour, but I've heard from multiple people this new place has a fantastic happy hour!
