24 Best American Restaurants near Blue River

“Nice, relaxing atmosphere. The food was very good. Service & speed were great. It was very convenient to where we were staying. Prices were comparable to other Breckenridge establishments and it was a good value. The apple pie was outstanding!!“

“Really enjoyed the food and service. Menu had a wide variety. For starters we had beef tips with guac and pico. Yum! For dinner we both had filet and it was tender, cooked to perfection and wonderful taste. Only reason for a 4 was the icy stairs. A restaurant of this quality should not let this happen given the long stairway.“

“We are Gluten Free and low lactose. Often that ends up limiting the delicious options we have. Well, not at this restaurant. I have eaten in Michelin Star restaurants and this restaurant measures up on taste. Add to that the service and atmosphere (not to mention the FABULOUS happy hour), and you have a restaurant I HIGHLY recommend. Amazing food, amazing wine selection and cocktails, fantastic service. You just can’t go wrong with this restaurant.“

“Honestly one of the best dining experiences I’ve ever had. Amazing service from Ethan and food was a delicious work of art. The whole experience was delightful! This place is chef owned and you can feel all the love they put into their food. If you’re in Breckenridge be sure to go here! You will not regret it.“

“Must stop for anyone looking for great food at reasonable prices! You can check in on Yelp to shorten your wait and when you get there Chris will be slinging groups to tables faster than SpongeBob slings patties. Cheese steak is a must, bird salad is worth going back for! Can't wait to come back.Parking: Parking is free after 8pm, and is very cheap, we never paid more than $1.00!“

“Best place to eat in Breck. We come to Breck every year and Reddz is a must stop for amazing food and service. You’ll often find Redd there, seems like he works every night.Haven’t found a bad item yet.Hard to rank them, but the cheesesteak might sit at the top.Great to also drop in and get a walking taco to go. Fritos bag with taco meat and all the fixens loaded into the bag (sour cream, onions, cheese, etc…)Highly recommended.“

“We were looking for a good seafood restaurant and ended up having thr best dining experience in Colorado here.The place was sadly really dead on a thursday night, so obviously staff/service was spot on.However, what surprised us was how fresh the oysters and tuna poke was. We initially ordered 1/2 dozen orders but had to get 6 more.We also tried the rocky mountain trout which was a delight. They were gracious enough to leave out bacon from the hash. The trout tasted amazing fresh, to the point I was wondering how do they even make it taste this good. (Ofcourse I added some extra salt on it). The hash with shrimp and the edamame paired perfectly with everything.Also tried a chocolate fudge brownie which was great.“

“Here for happy hour. Great vibe sitting at the communal table with wonderful conversations with strangers eating delicious new food. We had the cauliflower, burger, Bibb Cobb, Caesar, Korean chicken, polenta. Everything was great except the Caesar was just good and polenta was a bit flavorless. Overall, highly recommend. Get there early or miss out“

“Blue Moose is the perfect locally owned gem of a breakfast spot. Breakfast is my favorite meal and the classics are done well here, but there are some true standouts: pancakes and Benedicts! The pancakes are the fluffiest pancakes I’ve eaten anywhere including some famed pancake houses in Music City. Even the flavored pancakes have a light fluffy texture and great flavor depth making it easy to eat far more than you meant to. And the Benedicts shine thanks to innovative combos including Brie and bacon and small batch handmade hollandaise sauce. The drinks are amazing… try the Breakfast Cereal flight and enjoy the coffee menu too. The staff is great and Tyler, the owner, is a humble and kind guy! So enjoyed chatting with him about baking. What are you even doing in Breckenridge if you don’t have breakfast here?“

“What a lovely All-American breakfast place. The atmosphere is casual, simple but clean. The best is the food and service. I ordered the corn beef breakfast with hash browns and sunny side up eggs and it was delicious; great prices too. Absolutely a must visit if you are in “

“This is an excellent spot to stop for a bit of lunch. The service is very prompt and everyone is incredibly friendly. There is an impressive tap list at good prices. The food is really the star though. My lamb tacos were a delight and the French fries were crisp, hot, and delicious.“

“Happy hour from 5-6 at the small bar was very enjoyable. Friendly conversations with chef and bartender about the food and patrons about life’s adventures. 2-4-1 appetizers were not pub food but high end, creative and delicious. Highly recommend the scallops and duck. Drinks were also marked down considerably“

“ABSOLUTELY SO GOOD ???They have a great selection of all types of food. Burgers ? sandwiches ? wings ? putine..fries loaded GRAVY onions cheese, even brisket or pulled pork..SO DANG GOOD ? ? DRINKS ????? ?Wheelchair accessibility: Sidewalks with easy access..very good ?“

“I’ve got to add to the praise of the scones. I have never been a scone person, but have literally been dreaming about the scones at Amazing Grace! They are so good that I may make a special trip to Breck just to have one.Also, I had the lunch burrito which was also very good.“

“Cozy underground bar with nice decor and super friendly staff. Tons of gluten-free options including a very good fried chicken sandwich and cajun fries, lots of cocktails, and at least one tasty cider option. P.S. Talk to the bartender Samuel about JoJo's Bizarre Adventure. Highly recommend sitting at the bar, be ready to make new friends.Dietary restrictions: many gluten-free options including a dedicated gluten-free fryer.“

“We just enjoyed the nicest family dinner! We sat by a huge beautiful real fireplace in a nice large Colorado and it had a Western Saloon feel to it. The staff was all very friendly and even the Chef came out to our table. I enjoyed a hearty Chili and my husband and daughter shared a huge Tomahawk Steak that they said melted in their mouths. My other two sons each enjoyed home made mac and cheese and chicken and a Philly cheese steak special. My daughter also enjoyed a local Bourbon. For dessert we shared a hot skillet of a homemade brownie, ice cream and whip cream. We are all stuffed and very satisfied. Yum, Yum!Highly Recommend, Gretchen from CT.“

“Love this restaurant - the drinks are very creative and really showcase their products, and the food is outstanding. The atmosphere is nice, but the dining area tends to be very loud and makes it difficult to hear others that aren't next to you. Unfortunately, the great drinks/food were ruined by poor service. While we were able to order our drinks right away, our server didn't return for 35 minutes. We were hoping to order appetizers, but at that point were too frustrated and skipped them. We had questions about some entrées and in the middle of asking our waiter, he said "just a minute" and walked away and didn't come back for 15 minutes. Needless to say, the impressive efforts of the kitchen and bar were ruined by this one individual.Parking: Parking can be limited. Also very dark at night with only a single light“

“Amazing experience at the Canteen Tap House and Tavern in Breckenridge! Aaron, our server, was outstanding with his service and friendliness. The food was delicious, every bite was a delight. Highly recommend for a top-notch dining experience in Breckenridge. Thank you, Aaron and the Canteen team!“

“What a fantastic evening! The atmosphere was lively and brimming with warmth, thanks to the personable and friendly staff. But what truly elevated the experience were the cocktails. Crafting flavorful, high-quality drinks using their own spirits deserves commendation. It's clear that they put a lot of passion and skill into their creations. A big thank you for making our night so memorable!Violet & Michael“

“I'm from Chicago and I've been coming to Denver for 15 years. I can never find a good Chicago style hot dog. This low-key Hidden Gem in Breckenridge is the place to go for some authentic Chicago style food. Service is a little bit slow but everybody's friendly so Pop a beer, spin the wheel, and wind down after a day on the slopes.Vegetarian options: Veggie pita was great with hummus.“

“Me and my Family came in to eat as a large group, and we were hesitant to try as we haven’t found any truly good places in town since visiting, but the food here was absolutely a god send! Some of us even got extra sides after and the service was good! Definitely recommend!“

“Love the new location at the Frederiksted waterfront, you get the sunsets views now, and you are just south of the pier. I like the fact the restaurant is split into 3 areas, outside, front of the restaurant and back of the restaurant. It appears the new location has more tables than the original location but Scott still fills the restaurant even during weeknights.“

“Great place, the cocktails are very very good, full bar with local and non local options. Everything that we had was great, both in flavor and presentation, and the servers are amazing. I totally recommend the salmon, lamb and the burger. Great choice for a casual yet delicious evening.“

“Great little downtown Hotspot. They put a lot of care into hand preparing thier food so it's not just out of the freezer and into the fried like most places in a ski town. Really good live music shows after the dinner rush concludes. Good spot for a night outVegetarian options: Mostly a burger place, but there are salads and Mac and cheese and thingsKid-friendliness: Only before 10pm, really kid friendly but as the night rolls on it takes on much more of a bar live music club feel“
