Avalanche Bar Grill in Crested Butte

Great drinks, better food! Ask for the Avi warning and check out their wonderful selection of mimosa themed drinks. Their burger selection is beyond par and you can get it custom made such that yout can even get a croissant as your bun instead of the traditional buns which I personally feel takes it to a new level.

Amazing burger. One of the best in the Butte👍

Awesome old lodge look inside, had the bbq ribs where good

Great after ski bar and grill. Simple menu and excellent food. Great prices on happy hour drink specials. Worthy stop after a great day of skiing. One of the last hold outs from the Vail switch over.

This is my favorite spot in Crested Butte for Apres ski.

Food was great (Avalanche Burger) and service was way better than expected. Would definitely come back.

Delicious. Fire bar is a little hard to eat at but great medium rare burgers.

Not too pleased, for all the wonderful restaurants and options in Crested Butte this one is a dud for me. My well done burger that I got to go was very pink and my side of fresh fruit, instead of French fries that was $2 extra was a few orange slices. Not worth $16.50 to me. Sorry guys, you were very nice, like most everyone here in CB, but dinner was a disappoint.

Best Caesar salad I’ve ever had! Great Guacamole, steak sandwich was tender and savory! Pot stickers were good, fries and the dipping sauce were fantastic! Tomato Crab bisque was hugely successful, perfect refresh from morning slope runs! Fish and chips was also great! So good and filling was about too much to take an afternoon slope run, highly suggest a nap before doing so.

Decent Bar & Restaurant located close to the lifts. Came here after a day of skiing. 3-6 happy hour is WEAK. $1 off beers, Wells and wine... Nothing to write home about. Staff is not very friendly and service just ok. Decent menu selection of apps, sandwiches, and pub food. I would maybe go back.

Not a bad spot

My family and I went for 2 days to the restaurant and it was amazing. The waiter Brandon and (the tall waiter with gages) gave us amazing service and the food was awesome. Unfortunately we went there for our last evening in Colorado today (March 13th, evening) and the service was horrible, the food took forever and when I requested the manager to come over she was a literal b****. I never had such a bad experience with a manager of a restaurant before. I wish people like the waiters we had before who care for the customers were the ones leading places where people trying to have a good experience. Hama Cote

Now, I realize most restaurants offering Jalepeño Poppers don't invest much time and attention into a simple appetizer. However, that appetizer here is better than most meals I've gotten elsewhere. DO IT.

Nothing better than a burger and beer here after a long day of runs!

Avoid the pizza. Cheap dough and toppings! Not good at all. Try elsewhere like Woodstone at Grand Lodge which has a wood oven and gourmet toppings like sopressata and salami.

Great spot if you don't want to go to town. Great family food and desserts for the kids.

We ordered carry-out. It was ready on-time and very good. BYO Chicken sandwich and a Canadian bacon/pineapple pizza. Yum!

The place was crowded in the bar area, it was after the lifts closed. A waitress was being curt getting through the people. Once sitting by the fire once others moved I was searching for a hotel and someone bussed the table next to me and took my 2/3 full beer glass. I payed full price for two beers during happy hour not sure if they give a discount on beer, that wasn't upsetting. The removing my beer sitting next to me and not asking if it was mine and the waitress that seemed to be upset her place of business was packed and she felt too busy to acknowledge those she may serve. It's ironic there is a sign by the bar reads "Be nice or leave." I left because I was not going to be nice. I will not return to the Avalanche Bar & Grill. My first bad encounter of any sort of right the numerous times I've been to CB.

Avalanche was recommended to me by my ski instructor. He was spot on. Both times I went for lunch I had to wait about 10-15 minutes for a table. Your whole party has to be there otherwise they won't seat you. The first time I ordered the potstickers and sweet potato waffle fries. The fried potstickers were okay, but the sweet potato waffle fries were awesome. You could taste the truffle oil and the creamy dipping sauce was a nice touch. Prices were reasonable and service was quick. The second day I ordered chili and sat in the back by the fire pit. I recommend Avalanche over other restaurants by the base.

The food was poor. We ordered wings extra crispy and they arrived almost slimy they were so under done. I ordered a cherry vodka and soda with no grenadine as I'm diabetic and didn't want the added sugar. It arrived sweetened with something. I asked for a straw, but out of luck again. No straws available. The final blow was the waitress was definately uninterested in waiting on us. She served us then dissappeared. We have been there before when the food and service was outstanding. Not tonight. We won't be back.
