9 Best Cocktail Bars near Avon

“Great atmosphere and food“

“My husband and I booked a reservation here for his birthday dinner while staying on property at the Ritz Carlton. Our one-of-a-kind server’s name was Anna and the amazing bartender‘s name was Michael who made us one of Chris’s famous drinks. Anna knew more about sushi and sake than anyone else I know. She kindly guided us through menu recommendations based on our likes and dislikes she asked us to share. She even challenged us by bringing a couple of tastes from the menu of items we never would’ve ordered on our own, yet absolutely LOVED. The black cod cannot be missed as well as the tuna crispy rice. We had such an amazing experience with the best service and the best food imaginable. Thank you to Anna and the entire Sakaba service and culinary team. We will be back! 🤤“

“Good happy hour, good food for the price during happy hour, nicer on the inside than the outside...somehow this has evolved into a boomer hangout. Seriously the last 3 times I've been in there 90% of everyone in there is 65 if not 70 plus...not a bad thing just weird.“

“It was a nice place to sit and read while I sipped a chai tea latte waiting for my mother to finish shopping. Someone was having a phone conversation for half the time I was sitting there but I managed to tune them out. It was a lovely day.“

“This place had some really amazing seafood. Especially for being in the middle of the Rockies. Even though it was packed when I went there their service was amazing. Super accommodating. Everything was prepared to perfect. I have to give a huge shout out to all the servers. And the back of the house. They also have one of the best and most efficient bar tenders I’ve ever seen. 12/10 would recommend even to my worst enemy.“

“Consistently amazing food, service and ambiance. Love dining at The Rose!“

“We visited pre-ski season and the atmosphere was perfect. No large crowds and the service was wonderful.“

“Lovely dinner at Tavernetta with our toddler in tow! The stone-and-wood dining room has such a warm, rustic-Italian feel — cozy booths, dim lighting, and touches like the little brass table lamps make it feel special without being stuffy. Even our 3-year-old was won over, happily digging into a bowl of parmesan on the table before our pasta even arrived. Service was warm and accommodating for a family with a young kid, and the entrance off the stone staircase (right by the Tavernetta sign) sets a great tone before you even walk in. Great spot for a family night out in Vail Village — will be back.“

“We had the most amazing meal at Revel! The salmon with creamy leeks and Chardonnay braised turnips was spectacular—the subtle flavors were perfectly balanced with the leeks providing just the right amount of tang so it didn’t feel too rich. The braised beef was like butter; the savory vegetables it was braised in overnight gave a depth of flavor I’ve never tasted in beef before. The chocolate mousse for dessert…heavenly! The richness of the Belgian chocolate and vanilla bean cream had me moaning out loud.

The salmon is flown in from Norway and the beef is raised locally. I think this goes to show that if you start with fresh, pure ingredients and put them in the hands of a talented chef you can make the simplest of foods taste exceptional.

I just ate at a James Beard award winning restaurant last month and I can honestly say it was no comparison to our meal at Revel! I can’t wait to go back!“
