Located at the top of Gondola 19 in Lionshead, Eagle’s Nest has several eateries for skiers and riders. The food here is good, although expensive. Over the past two years, the menu options and quality have improved significantly.There is a good bar on the first floor, Bistro 14. This use to be a restaurant, but post-COVID, it is just a bar.

Summer visit a few years back, just a scenic little hike over from the main lift. Breathtaking views from the summit. Lunch was decent, had roasted lamb sandwich with mozzarella, au jus dip and fries...with a Coors Light of course. Even though it was August long sleeves were needed at that elevation (I saw folks in coats that day).I recommend.Nearby activities: Skiing but I was there in summer so it was a short hike for us.Noteworthy details: Beautiful views

Worst food on the mountain. Seriously, just eat at the base of the mountain, don't even touch anything on

Beautiful place, but there are many people and the place is insufficient after 12:30.

Nice enough vibe with great views, and good selection of food (pizza, soup, burgers, salad). Note that you can get the same food at any of the restaurants on the slopes, so it’s all about selecting the place you like to sit in most! Make a reservation ahead of time as they may not allow you in without one.

The top of the mountain is beautiful and lots to see and do.

Terrible customer service. Buffy, Buffy, and Muffy the three fake blonde pretentious little daddy’s girls that work the registers are rude. After purchasing an $8.20 bottle of water I merely told my daughter wow that’s a lot for water. Buffy clapped back with why don’t you go to a gas station. That’s what I get for visiting vail mountain? A bunch of spoiled little rich daddy’s girls to berate me?
Worst on mountain food I I have ever eaten. The fries suck. The chicken tenders are tiny (basically nuggets). Sry overpriced but that's par for the course, food should be better for that price though. This is like prison cafeteria food. And the staff is rude. Honestly F vail. It's huge but dull. Way better skiing around the area and the experience fails on all counts. Doubt I'll ever ski here again.

Decent cafeteria with a beautiful view. Their "Marketplace" offers a variety of food options including grain bowls, chili, chicken fingers, fries, pizza and more. Average price per plate is $16-22; can use the on-mountain 20% off Epic discount to this purchase.

Can't believe this is the food they would serve people. Everything is out and the place looks like a college frat house. I'd rather eat there honestly. Over priced is a gross understatement. Especially when the portions are not measured and you can see a wide difference in amount given. We live in 2022. People don't want grease, cheap, over processed food. Vail has gone down hill and it's disappointing to witness.

Solid choice for on mountain dining

Vail does such a great job in every aspect of the resort except for the food. Had lunch today at Eagles Nest. I tried the soup of the day, broccoli cheddar. It was so bland that I didn't finish it. My friend had a burger and said that it was dry & tasteless. There was not a big selection of food and what was offered seemed more appropriate for children. Very disappointed!
All the best,
